GOOD CLEANUP OF
i WHEflTISflSSURED
Exports Will Take Care
Remaining Supply.
of
GROWERS TO LOAD IN BULK
Two Thousand Tons Go Aboard
Stcumcr for London New
i Crop Cargoes Sold.
The wheat market yesterday failed to
liuld Its gains of the preceding day and
.i(h a severe slump at Chicago, prices
vere lower here. Bids at the Exchange
were reduced i cent on all grades, and
rffers in the open market were also
lower with 1.2 bid for club.
The demand on the part of exporters
was good, but they found sellers, as a
rule, tight holders. It- is generally be
l.eved that enough tonnage has been fixed
to take care of all the wheat remaining
!n the northwest, which would imply thtft
this quantity of wheat has been sold abroad
by exporters. It is also patent that many
of the sales have not been covered, as
it is known that several million bushels
el wheat remain in the hands of farmers
Under the circumstances, the firmness of
the growers is not surprising.
The Northwest Wheat Growers asso
cfaled will this morning begin loading 2O00
'ung tons of wheat in bulk on the steamer
IMnteldyk at terminal No. 4, for London
The success of bulk loading, initiated here
last year by the Gray-Rosen baum Grain
Gmpany, prompted this step, and bulk
handling of grain is expected to assume
large proportions In the coming season
V.'he Northwest Wheat Growers associated
a. so loaded 40,000 bushels on the steamer
Xainderdyk, which left Puget sound
few days ago.
There Is every prospect for a heavy
movement of wheat out of Portland in
June and exporting should continue active
up to the time the new crop Is ready to
frhip. Half a dozen cargoes of new crop
v heat have been sold for August-Sep
timber loading. Exporters have been
making an effort to contract with growers
for new wheat and are now offering on
the basis of $1.15 or a. little more at
tidewater.
The dally Chicago wire to the Gray
Rosenbaura Grain company follows: 0
"Foreign cables did not follow our ad
ance,- turning market into very weak af
fair, largely because, shorts had pretty
Tell covered yesterday. Support poor ex
ccpt at inside prices. May wheat weak and
deliveries heavy. Difficult to offer ad
vice. May wheat continuing the un
Fettling feature. Receipts large, demand
low, crop outlook favorable.'
Liverpool wheat futures closed d.
iuwer. Spot Australian and Manitobas
were unchanged and No. 2 red winter
2d. higher at lis. Id.
At Buenos Aires June wheat opened
cents higher at $1.81.
Russell's News Bureau says: "World's
wheat supplies and requirements compared
witfi last year are as follows: Afloat,
July 1, and English port stocks 79,000,000
bushels versus 85,000,000 bushels; world's
exports July 1 to May 15, 555,000,000
Lushels versus 821,000,000 bushels, total
supply 634,000,000 bushels versus 621.000,-
000 bushels. Afloat and port stocks on
Way 15, 110,000,000 bushels versus 02,000,000
bushels; world's disappearance of im
pcrted wheat 574,000,000 bushels versus
nptf,000,000 bushels. This disappearance of
Imported wheat is 45,000,000 bushels more
than last year and largely due to non
European imports of 86.000,000 bushels.

H'KING GRAIN SOWING NEARLY OVER
Winter Wheat and Rye Generally Good
in Oregon.
I The forepart of the week was warm,
ruushiny and . very favorable for crop
germination and growth; the latter part
war cooler with some needed precipita
tion in a few western counties. While
the warmer weather stimulated the growth
of all vegetation it is backward in prac
tically ail districts and farm work, as a
rule, is still behind the average for the
season, according to the Oregon weekly
crop report of the weather bureau.
. The seeding of barley, oats and spring
wheat Is about finished, and the early
own grain is looking well. Winter wheat
and rye are generally good; are heading
in western districts and the former is
looking fine in northeastern counties as a
lesult of the recent warm weather. Some
torn planting is yet to be done; a few
early plantings are up and being cul
tivated. Apples have received the calyx spray in
Josephine, and apple bloom has nearly dis
appeared in Hood River county, where
1 berries have a good set. Pears appear
to have set well in Jackson, but there
KV complaint of much "blossom blight"
In-Marion, while In Lane county both pears
and prunes are dropping heavily. Home
grown strawberries are on the market in
l)ouglas county.
Alfalfa made marked improvement un
der the influence of warmer weather, it
being 2 to 214 feet high In Umatilla coun
ty, clover and timothy arc also doing
well, but the stands are thin in many
1 r'aces. Pastures and ranges, while still
Vackward, are gaining rapidly and will soon
furnish ample grazing for livestock.
Cattle and sheep are In fair to good con
dition and quite a number are now on
summer range. Sheep shearing has be
gun in Malheur county, but was delated
en account of rains, and there are com
plaints of heavy loss of stock in Grant
coynty since turning on to the range.
Planting of late potatoes continues; early
varieties are making good growth and in
Jackson county are nearly ready to bloom;
rome were set back by frost in Uma
tilla county, but revived quickly under
favorable weather following and many are
i bloom. Early gardens are making a
rood showing, but late truck crops are
slow in coming and are quite generally

Butter Steady at Advance,
The butter market was steady at the
advanced prices yesterday. Creamerymen
do not believe the new quotations can hold
long but in the meantime the demand for
cubes is sufficient to keep the market
cleaned up.
Eggs were active and steady at un
changed prices.
There was a good Inquiry for poultry
and dressed meats also sold well.

(Copyright, 1922, by the Public Ledge
Company. Published by Arrangement.).
NEW, YORK. May 24. (Special.) Stocks
moved in rather uncertain fashion today,
with a moderate reduction in the volume
cf trading. - There were times along in
the afternoon when the market was posi
tively dull. Features of exceptional ac
tivity and strength wer furnished only by
specialties or scattered issues in certain
groups. Among these were Allied Chemi
cal, Crucible, Gulf States and a few other
industrials. Brooklyn Union Gas, Consoli-.
dated Gas, Lima Locomotive and North
American company also were strong.
There waa lurther activity in Chicago &
Alton, but otherwise there was littie fea
ture to the rails. The dullness in the -ails
seems rather surprising in view of the con
structive character of the decision by the
interstate commerce commission, which
apparently has outlined a policy fixing
5?i per cent aa a reasonable return on ag
gregate railroad property value. Tho ex
pected action by th railway labor board in
reducing the common labor scale, it is es
timated, will bring abjut a saving of ap
proximately $50,000,000 in railway operat
ing and maintenance costs, in spite of the
apathy of speculation toward the rails,
however, well-informed sentiment Is bull
ish on this class of securities.
Recent activity in Republic Iron & Steel
and Mldvale was explained by merger
plans late in the afternoon. In the case
of Republic this development apparently
had been fairly well discounted. .
.
The weekly review of the Iron Age was
given a favorable interpretation in view of
xne comment to the effect that current
buying is on a larger scale than had been
expected and that demand in some direc
tions is urgent. The statement regarding
the small reserve stocks of automobile
plants also created surprise.

that the five-company merger Is still beinc

of the three larger companies consolidating
wnn tne two smaller companies possibly
coming in later. The story printed in
morning newspaper here today purporting
to give lull details of the merger was de
nied flatly by counsel for. the merger, who
declared that the Trumbull company has

WHEAT PRICES GIVE IK
MAY DELIVERY DROPS SIX
?ENTS AT CHICAGO.
.
Big Receipts Are Severe Handicap
Against Bulls Mills Hold
Back From Purchasing.
CHICAGO. May 24. With an apparently
endless flood of wheat rushing into Chi
cago to catch expected high prices here
oeiore tne end of the montfe, the wheat
market suddenly gave way today under
the strain. May delivery underwent
sheer fall of 6c a bushel in value. The
market, taken as' a whole, closed heavy
lc to 6c net lower, with May J1.32 to
$1.32U and July $1.22 to 1.22. Com
and oats both finished c to llc
down, in provisions the outcome was un
changed to 7c higher.
Flurried trading in wheat resulted from
a belief on the part of many traders that
the principal bulls in the market had
abandoned the fight for higher prices.
far as this month was concerned. The
basis for such a course was evidence that
the leading houses identified with the bull
side o.' the market were selling today on
a big scale and that the chief buying sun
port for prices came from the operations
of the leading shorts, the concerns which
have been actively opposing of late the
efforts for higher prices.
Whether prevalent opinion that the bull
campaign in May wheat had reached en
end was correct or otherwise, big receipts.
wnicn were seemingly ess urea ior tne re
mainder of tne month, formed a severe
handicap against the bulls today from the
outset. Deliveries on May contracts thi:
: morning amounted to 822,000 bushels and
the fresh receipts here were 365 carloads.
Besides, the Liverpool market was unre
sponsive to yesterday's sharp advance
here, domestic millers appeared to be
holding back from purchasing and no im
portant crop damage news was in sight.
Under such circumstances, rallies in price
grew feeble, and at the last the market
made a Bwift downward plunge, losing 2c
a bushel for May in the final 30 minutes
of the board of trade session.
Corn and oats weakened with wheat.
Higher quotations on hogs finally
brought about an upturn in the provision
market, notwithstanding the bearish in
fluence of tne break In grain values.
The Chicago grain letter received yester
day by the Overbeck A Cooke company of
Portland follows:
Wheat Heavy liquidation of May hold
ings, in addition to selling of July cred
ited to the leading longs In the current
month, gave the market an entirely dif
ferent complexion from that of yesterday.
The trade appeared impressed with the
favorable crop report and the continued
heavy receipts at primary points, although
the latter did not materially depress cash
prices. The local trading basis was steady
with contract grades bringing the May i
liiivv. lilts Mautwni rpiiitrieu .u uiuium-
ent foreign demand with buyers appar
ently holding off on the belief that con
siderable of the wheat being delivered on
May contracts will be consigned abroad.
Charters were taken for 250.000 bushels to
Buffalo. The present pressure of cash
wheat can be regarded as a temporary
factor, which might make 1 for a strong
situation next month inasmuch as the
actual supply ox $rain is not increased, but
rattier is placed at points or reaay at
tribution. Corn It was a. weak market throughout
the session, dominated mainly by the ac
tion of wheat. Receipts were estimated at
260 cars and cash prices were lower with
the futures, but the basis was relatively
firm. The country is not selling as free
ly as generally expected. This might be
attributed to the delay in planting, but
there is also a growing conviction that
holders will not be disposed to sell In
volume when a far better prijee is obtain
able through the medium of the hog. The
ntrinsic value of corn recommends a bull
ish attitude at present prices.
Oats Selling by cash Interests and in
adequate buying caused weakness In oats
futures. Unfavorable crop reports failed
to revive interest on the buying side, be
cause of the slow demand for the large
available stocks.
Rye There was good buying of futures
by seaboard interests and the weakness in
wheat had only a moderate Influence on
prices. Cash rye was firm at May price
to one cent over for contract grades.
Leading futures ranged as follows:

ness is improving rapidly and it is coming
back to stay, he told jfc.mery Ulmstead,
president of the Northwestern National
bank. Tne revival is more slow in tne
middle west agricultural districts, due to
the fact that wheat and corn prices in the
past two years have not been good. Now
the prospects for not only good, crops but
fair prices are much better and there Is a
vastly different feeling sweeping through
the country. Everywhere there is op
timism. I am agreeably surprised to find ;
financial conditions improving throughout :
the northwest." 1

WINTER WHEAT GROWTH CON
TINUES GOOD.
Oats Crop, Reported Backward in
Interior Valley Due to Late
Sowing, Is Improved.
WASHINGTON, D. C, May 24. Nor
mal temperatures almost everywhere
except in the south, did much during
the week ending yesterday to aid
the farmers,' the weather bureau
1 ported today in Its weekly weather
"op review Growth of vegeta-
tion was hindered somewhat In west
ern states by insufficient rain.
Conditions as reported to the bu
reau favored a continuation of the
satisfactory growth made during the
recent weeks by winter wheat. Rain
was still needed at the close of the
week in Iowa while the crop was
described as becoming weedy in
western Kansas, and stands were
thin in many fields in Nebraska. Cool
and cloudy weather in the spring
wheat belt was favorable for that
crop, the review said, adding that
considerable improvement was re
ported from South Dakota as a re
sult of additional rains and germina
tion was satisfactory in Montana.
The oats crop, which generally is
backward in the interior valley states
due to delayed sowing, improved dur
ing the week
Corn was reported as having ger
minated rather poorly in the upper
Mississippi valley, but in most other
sections the early plant is coming
up to a good stand.
