Upvad MoTemcnL
The fcop market La a9vln enjoying a
tootn, which im twlieved to le due to
pcuI&tiT buying by eastern dealers. The
Interest la chiefly In new crop contracts.
X number of deals In futures were made
in tfcto atate at 20 to 25 cent and with
the later strength of the market the price
advanced to 80 cent, at which figure one
r two contracts were signed up.
The English dealers as yet how no
disposition to take hold, yet It 1 likely
that It is the unfavorable condition of
the foreign crops that Is wudnp the east
am dealers to come Into the market. The
crop In Eng-land, It ie known, will be a
son all one, though recent rains were of
aom benefit. On the continent the crops
iware also affected by th-e Ions drouth In
b early part of the summer: This makes
it probable that the domestic dealers can
set Into the South American markets that
were formerly controlled by the Germans.
Pacific coast crops will hardly be any
targrer than last year. Oregon may have
60,000 bales, but most of them are under
contract and If, because of the short
Engl If h crop, the London dealers are forced
to come In later the early buying by
the American dealers will prov to have
been profitable.
epot hops have shared In the strength
and activity of contracts. While there have
not been many sales of Oregon 1920s as
Ugh as 20 cents has been paid. The rise
In the market ta causing many growers
to hold back. Trading has been heaviest
In the California sections. One block of
JO0O bales of Sacramento was sold at
15 cents.
ATJSTRAXIA SELLS 30,000 TON'S WHEAT
Long Credit Given Germany Fats Exporters
Out of Game.
Free offerings of Canadian wheat on 90
days' time, as well as libera! sales of Aus
tralian wheat on the same terms, have
taken the European market away from
exporters here, who have been demanding
cash for their wheat and trying to make
sales on this basis. Australia sold no less
than 30,000 tons to Germany on a 00 days'
credit and private cables told of the sale
of a cargo of Canadian also to Germany.
Under the circumstances offers made by
local exporters failed to result In business.
Bids sent Into the country were about
2 cents lower than Tuesday and not many
farmers disposed to sell. At the Mer
chants' Exchange all wheat bids were re
duced 1 cent. Coarse grains also tended
lower.
The government weekly weather and
crop report said:
"Weather was generally favorable for
crops and farm operations. Late corn
greatly Improved as a result of the rains
in the great valleys and the northeast.
Harvesting of small grains made good
progress, although there was considerable
damage to grain in shock on account of
vainfaU.
Broomhairs Argentine cable aaid: The
fntarefl market is ruled by speculators.
Foreign Inquiry' Is very small. Exporters
tmying only small quantities Rain fell In
northern sections. Soil already sown in
province of Santa Fe under somewhat
smaller acreage. Exports of corn decreas
Ing but farmers continue to offer freely
and port stocks - are holding up."
Terminal receipts, in cars, were
ported by the Merchants Exchange as

Bmrsa wheat nearly harvested
Xate Apples Are Sizing Wen Pear rick
ing Continues in South,
The spring wheat, barley and oats har
dest Is drawing to a close, except in the
astern districts, says the weekly Oregon
crop report of the weather bureau. Rye
te all cut and nearly all threshed. Winter
wheat harvest about complete in Umatilla
and Sherman counties and is In full swing
xn Baker and Grant counties; this crop
la mostly cut. and threshing Is well ad
vanced in the central valleys; the hot
winds ripened the wheat very rapidly in
Lane county and there will be some loss
from shattered grain. Corn Is making
stood growth under irrigation, but where
not Irrigated Is badly In need of rain.
Late apples are sizing well, but need.
Cooler weather in the Rogue river valley,
and high temperature with absence of
wind has eauaed some sun scald in the
Hood River district. Bartlett pear pick
ing continues In Jackson and soon will
begin In Douglas county. Prunes are do
ing fairly well under the droughty con
ditions. Peaches are coming into mar
ket in Increasing quantities. Blackberries
are ripening rapidly and some are being
picked, but they are drying up In places
and would be greatly benefited by rain.
Haying continues in coast and eastern
counties under Ideal conditions. Seed
clover is short and needs rain; cutting
or this crop is well under way in Lane
county. Most of the second crop of aj
falfa is in shock or stack, the third crop
shows good growth in Umatilla and is
about ready to cut in Jackson, and re
port is received that grasshoppers are
doing considerable damage to the fourth
crop In Josephine county. While valley
p. inures are mostly dry except where
it-rlgated. the mountain ranges are still
ample, and livestock continues In uni
formly good condition.
Late plantings of potatoes are suffering
tor moisture in non-irrigated localities
the drought has caused premature ripen
ing of the early varieties In some places
ana me crop is mostly on the market.
Gardens where not Irrigated are dried on
Tomatoes, cantaloupes and roasting ears
are becoming plentiful. While hops are
fair to good.
they are much in need of
rain.

Bond Trading More Diversified and
Tone Steadier (Rally in
German Marks.
NEW YORK. Aug. 17. Conditions In the
stock market today underwent some alter
ation from their recent reactionary trend.
Numerous speculative Issues established
new low records for the year, but these
were recovered in the vigorous rebound of
the last hour.
Aoart from a favorable forecast of Mex
ican Petroleum's earnings and some activ
ity in the steel trade, there was no spe
cific news to account for tha sudden re
versal. Technical conditions or an over
extension of the shorts probably were ac
celerating factors.
Prlcos were lower by 1 to 4 points In the
first half of the session. Bears made capi
tal of further dividend reductions and
omissions and the retention of the 6 per
cent rate for call money, that rate hold
ing throughout the day.
Oils were the outstanding features, espe
cially foreign issues. Prior to publication
of Mexican Petroleum's prospective finan
cial returns, that stock, as well as Pan
American, Shell Transport and Royal
Dutch, were under constant pressure.
Independent steels and secondary equip
ments, which are dependent upon the rail
roads for their sustenance, also suffered
variable setbacks with motors, chemical,
fertilizer and food issues.
New York Airbrake was the one stock to
manifest little recuperative power, declin
ing 5 points. Sales amounted to 475,000
shares.
A brisk rally In marks resulted In buying
for German account and intimation that
impending reparations payments are likely
to be anticipated featured the foreign ex
changes. London and most continental
rates, notably Dutch bills, were inclined to
react.
l Trading In bonds -was more diversified
and a steadier tone ruled In the more Im
portant domestic and foreign issues. Lib
erty fourth 44s showed especial strength.
Total sales, par value, $8,650,000.

CHICAGO, Aug. 17. Unfavorable re
ports about general business conditions
gave an advantage today to bears In the
wheat market. Prices closed heavy Zc
to 3c net lower, with September $1.19
to $1.19 and December $1.20 to $L2l.
Corn lost c to Htf lc, oata c to c and
Drovisions 15c to ode
Attention or traders in wneat centered
largely on official announcement that o,
700,000 people are out of work in the
United States. Federal reserve board
statements about factors operating against
business progress were likewise given
much notice, and so, too, were fresh de
clines in the New York stock market and
in foreign exchange. The bulls were fur
ther handicapped by assertions that esti
mates of yesterday's export business had
been greatly exaggerated. On the result
ing breaks in wheat prices, bouses with
eastern connections did a good deal
buying. As a rule, however, longs showed
an increased desire to liquidate thei:
holdings, and with beara .operating mors
extensively, rallies failed to last, not'
withstanding that country offerings were
Ileht.
Corn and oata descended lower than at
any time heretofore this season. Demand
was of only a scattering character.
Sham downturns In the provision mar
ket were brought about by the weakness
of grain and by a decided tumble In the
value of hoga
The Chicago market letter received yes
terday by the Overbeck & Cooke company
of Portland follows:
-"Wheat With the exception of a. mod
erate rally, accompanied by scattered
short covering, the market was a weak
one throughout the session and closed
around bottom flgurea Buying by export
interests from time to time served only I
to check the downward tendency tempo- I
rarily. Liquidation was general and In-
creased in volume as the market got into 1
new low ground. The movement of win--,
ter wheat is gradually falling off. but
spring wheat is taking its place and ar- ,
rivals at "primary points in the aggregate;
are very large. The export demand is i
good and so Is the domestic milling in- 1
quiry, but buyers are having little diJfl- I
culty in satisfying their wants without
bidding up prices. The long side of fu
tures has lost its attractiveness, for the
time being at least, and we believe It wilr-
b good policy to make sales on the bulges.
"Corn Futures sold into new low
ground, although the liquidation which
has been so prominent for several days
was less in evidence. The cash market
today was without significant feature, the
receipts of 257 cars meeting a fair de
mand at lower prices. St. Louis reported
the cash market weak and 1 cent lower.
with a good part of the receipts carried
over unsold. Some rather rarge sales have
been made for shipment abroad, but we
think the supply coming In from the coun
try will be fully adequate.
Oats reached new low levels during
the early trading, but met an improved
class of buying and held comparatively
steady for the remainder of the day. The
cash demand was slightly better than rt
has been recently and spot offerings held
firmer basia We see little Incentive
for a position on the long side in view of
the burden of present tremendous stocks.
"Rye This market ruled comparatively
strong on buying by houses with seaboard
connections, presumably against export
sales. Cash rye .was inactive at 2 cents
under September bid for No. 2 on track."

The reason Bend, with its 5500 population has taxable property
valued at $7,500,000, is because it is the gateway of the new and
rapidly developing; Empire of Central Oregon.
Bend is deslined to be another Spokane because this city draws
its wealth from industry, agriculture, lumbering and livestock,
and each are only in infancy.
