Portland Cordage Company Gets
Knw Material From Manila
on Admiral Line Vessel.
The shipping- board eteamer Ed
more arrived at the dock of the Port
land Vegetable Oil Mills company
last night with 2000 tons of copra,
2000 tons of hemp and other freight
to discharge here. The copra, which
was stowed In bulk at ports of the
Philippine islands, will be unloaded
first, and the Edmore will then so to
municipal terminal No. 4 to discharge
the remainder of her Portland freight.
This steamer is one of the Admiral
line's regular berth liners In the
trans-Pacific service out of Puget
cound, but she was routed to Portland
first on her return from the orient
because of the heavy freight ship
ments picked up there for Portland.
The 2000 tons of copra brought to
the local oil milling plant by the Ed
more is thj third large shipment of
this commodity to be brought here
from Manila, for local manufacture;
and Is the last shipment on an order
of about 1000 tons booked by the Ad
miral line for shipment on their ves
sels. When the service of this com
pany from the Columbia river to the
orient was discontinued, the company
had no choice but to bring In the
freight booked for Portland on one
of the Seattle steamers. The hemp
brought in by the Edmore Is con
signed to the Portland Cordage com
pany and Is also for local manufac
ture. After discharging her Portland
freight, the Edmore will proceed to
Seattle and resume her regular sched
ule In the Puget sound trans-Pacifla
trade.

OrEIIATOUS GUT TOGETIIJ2K
Benefits Seen From Recent Meet
ing at Sun Francisco.
Although th recent meeting of the
shipping board operators and agents
at San Francisco did not accomplish
the reorganization of the Pacific
west-bound conference, which was
disrupted some months ago. It ac
complished something In bringing the
American operators together and In
suring closer co-operation In the op
eration of government vessels, James
W. Crlchton, district agent for the
division of operations of the emer
gency fleet corporation, said upon his
return from the meeting. Such meet
ings of operaotrs and agents are to
be held once a month hereafter.
San Francisco was selected as the
place of meeting, as there are six
companies operating shipping board
steamers and having their home of
fices in that city, against one each In
Portland and Seattle.

H EH KING M AHKET IS ACTIVE
Large Quantities of Fish Being
Shipped to Oriental Ports.
VANCOUVER, B. C.. Jan. 11. (Spe
cial.) Every steamer leaving for the
orient has a consignment of herring
going to China or Japan from this
port. The herring market has im
proved materially in China during the
last month, and the demand gives
every promise of absorbing the entire
output. About 16.000 tons have gone
acroHS the Pacific already and the
Kanaimo iun has only begun.
Mild weather has brought the fish
to the surface again and made it pos
sible for the fiBhermen to manipulate
their nets and the herring catch has
been good for the past three weeks.
Most of these fish, however, were
caught on the west coast.

PRE-WAR 1910-14 PERIOD IS
DOUBLED DURING 1921.
Tremendous Quantities Shipped to
Europe Despite Panicky Finan
cial Conditions.
WASHINGTON, T. C. Jan. 11. The
United States exported more than
twice as much foodstuffs during 1921
as In the pre-war 1910-14 period, not
withstanding the fact that there has
been a considerable decline since the
peak of 1918-19, announced the food
stuffs division of the department of
commerce In a review of the looa-
stuffs export situation. t
With cereals and cereal products,
exDorts during the last year were
31,000,000,000 pounds, as compared
with an average of 9,000.000.000
pounds before the war, or more than
three times as much. With meat prod
ucts exports during the last year were
about 80 per cent more than the pre
war average; of vegetable oils practi
cally six times as much, and of dairy
products about 11 times as much.
That exports still continue heavy in
volume is shown by the fact that for
the new wheat crop beginning July 1,
exports were . 182,000,000 oughels
against a pre-war average of 71.000,
OoO bushels, or about 24 times as
much. About eight times as much rye
and three times as much corn were
exported since November 1. Comparing-
the values the ratio is still higher,
as average export prices are still con
siderably higher for li2i than were
pre-war prices. When considered that
Kurope, alone, takes between 80 and
90 per cent of the exports of food
products, the large takings from the
United States for the last year axe
really remarkable, considering the
financial difficulties under which Ku
rope Is struggling.

CHEAPER WHEAT
Germany Buys in Argentina at
Low Price.
RATE EQUALS DOLLAR HERE
Free Offerings of Pacific Coast
Grain Are Turned Down; Local
Market Higher With East.
Following the sale of two cargoes of
wheat to Europe last week, one of them
afloat and the other to be loaded here, ex
porters have made a number of offerings
to European buyers, but without success.
Cable yesterday Indicated that the sharp
slump In American markets Tuesday had
alarmed the foreigners. Another factor,
and one the trade believes must be reck
oned with hereafter. Is the pressure to
seM Argentine wheat. Germany made
additional purchases there at a price equal
to $1 a bushel here, it reported that
Germany has bought 100.000 tons of Plate
wheat to date, on German terms.
At the local exchange wheat bids were
raised 2 cents on all grades. Offers sent
to the country were also about 2 cents
higher than Tuesday and a moderate
amount of selling by farmers was an
nounced. Eastern advices made no mention of
wheat export business, but reported the
purchase of 100.000 to 200.000 barrels of
flour by the' relief committee.
Broomhall has raised his estimate of
the surplus of wheat In the TJnited States
to 240,000.000 bushels and he reckons that
the Canadian promise is rather smaller,
say 100.000,000 to 200.000.000 bushels.
Broomhall Is of the opinion that, general
ly, international statistics Indicate suffi
ciency of wheat for the remainder of the
season but no super-abundance, especially
as central Europe Is likely to resume buy
ing on a fair scale.
Foreign crop conditions with the excep
tion of Russian and North Africa are gen
erally favorable. Broomhall cables in
detail:
'Rou mania Wheat sowings throughout
the old kingdom this fall have been very
email; details from last year's crop, of
ltctal figures, place production at "5.200,
C00 bushels.
"India The growing crops are making
favorable progress throughout the united
provinces and also Bombay, except In parts
of southern Deccan.
"Western Europe Most of the crops
are making seasonable progress."

ASSOCIATION RAISES PRINK PRICES
Advances Range lp to S Cents Stocks
Are Very Short.
An announcement of a price advance on
prunes has Just been made by the Oregon
Growers' Co-operative association, affect
ing nearly all of its holdings. Buyers have
at last awakened from their lethargic In
activity and they are beginning to realize
that Pacific .coast stocks are as they have
been represented very short.
The advances embody an Increase of 2
cents a pound on 20-30 Italian prunes, 1
cent on 40-50, 50-60 and 60-70 Potltes and
cent on 70-80. S0-f0 and 00-100 Pe
tites. An increase on 30-40 Italian prunes
has not yet been named, but It Is expect
ed that this will be fixed wi'hln the next
few days by the association's advisory
committee of prune growers.
The California Prune & Apricot Growers,
Inc., have announced a second advance on
prunes, which brings their prices above
their opening by 2 cents on 30-40s. 1
cents on 40-50?, .r.0-fw and flO-TOs and 1
cent on 70-S0s. 80-00s and 90-100s.
A few unauthorized press reports have
erroneously represented that the Oregon
Growers' entire stock of prunes was sold.
Certain lines of the association's stock are
entirely cleaned up. including all Italians
smaller than 30-40s and all Petltes In the
Willamette valley, but the association stlll
has holdings In other lines, although these
have been materially reduced and form
but a fraction of the earlier tonnage.
The outlook for an early clean-up of
coast stocks Is said to be most encourag
ing and It m expected that the market
will be bare before the new crop is ready
to market In the fall.
BUTTER PRODUCTION INCREASING
All Markets Weaken As Stocks Accu
mulate. The Increase in the domestic production
of butter continues, as noted ;n our pre
vious reviews, and this Increase, plus im
ports, has resulted In some accumulation
of butter on the markets and lower values
both In producing and consuming centers.
There Is still a large supply of storage
butter to be marketed, says the weekly
produce review of Swift & Co. of Chicago.
Poultry receipts have been a little
lighter during the week; this Is probably
due to the fact that some stock has been
held back for egg production. Roosters
hatched In the spring of 1921 are beginning
to show up quite staggy, and are discrim
inated against on all markets. Lower
price are being paid and before long
It Is expected young roosters of last year's
hatch will be claused and sold as "old
roosters." Prices are closing a little higher
on live and dressed fowl on practically all
marketa
Egg receipts have shown considerable
Increase throughout the producing sec
tions, resulting In markets closing on a
lower basts, although It may be expect
ed the price of fresh eggs will fluctuate
as values are affected by .changes In
weather conditions.
BUTTER WITHDRAWALS ARE LARGER
In Past
Week 7078 rounds Are
Taken

Butter withdrawals from Portland stor
ages In the past week were 7078 pounds,

Lower Selling Quotations Ruling on Street.
