UNOER
Early-Sown Wheat Fair in
Some Sections.
LATE PLANTED IS POOR
Winter Wheat Threshing Is Mak
ing Good Progress Weather
Favorable for Haying Work.
The harvesting of winter wheat in Or
egon is proceeding without interruption
and considerable threshing has been
done, says the weekly crop summary of
the weather bureau. The harvest of
spring wheat and oats is well under
way in some localities. Spring grain
that was sown early is fair in some sec
tions and poor in others; that which was
sown late is generally poor and in many
cases is a complete failure. Irrigated
corn continues to do well, but unlrrl
gated corn is showing more serious ef
fects of the drouth.
Unlrrigated meadows are dry. Irri
gated alfalfa is doing well. The weather
has been favorable for haying. Cutting
of the first crop is nearly complete in
central counties. The third crop is start
ing well in southern counties. Baling
of hay is well advanced in the Willam
ette valley. Some clover has been, hulled.
Pasturage is dry and poor, except in the
mountains and in irrigated districts.
Domestic stock is feeling the effect of
short pasturage. Range stock is gen
erally doing well.
Picking of loganberries continues. ' In
some places considerable loss has been
sustained because the berries ripened
more rapidly than they could be picked.
Apples are sizing well. There is a heavy
crop of prunes in some sections, but rain
is needed for best results. Some apricots
are in market and early peaches are
ripening in southern counties. Black
berries are less plentiful than usual.
. Marketing of early potatoes continues.
Iate potatoes and garden vegetables, ex
cept where irrigated, are suffering from
drouth. A few tomatoes have been mar
keted. It has been too dry for hops.
The weather was generally somewhat
cooler during the week, but some high
temperatures occurred in eastern coun
ties. There was much cloudiness along
the coast, and at times this extended
over most of the state. A few light
showers occurred in scattered localities,
but except over small areas in south
central counties the rainfall was too light
to be of benefit to vegetation or to
retard farming operations. Fog near
the coast and somewhat higher humidity
grenerally were of slight help in con
trolling forest fires. Water for irriga
tion is generally plentiful, but. in some
places springs and streams are falling.
LARGE RESERVE WEAKENS BUTTER
San Francisco Dealers Do Not Look for
Heavy Importations.
Advances in butter were not main- '
tainedt San Francisco in the last week j
and 92 score closed Friday at 38 c, the
same figure as two weeks before. The
principal reason for the lower prices has
been the general dullness of the market
caused by lighter consumptive demand,
as many people have left the city on
vacations. Dealers also felt rather un
settled about future markets, due to the
heavy storage accumulations for the en
tire country, and were willing to move
goods at a lower level. Receipts for
the week show quite a loss and indicate
much lighter production causing some
strength to the market. The majority
of the trade feel that the market is in
good shape, although prices are lc lower
than last year at this time, and storage
stocks went in at higher prices than in
1921. It does not look probable at this
time that Australia or New Zealand will
send much butter here in the fall and
winter, due to rate of exchange, high
tariff and possible low prices here. The
Los Angeles market closed at 42c.
Receipts on eastern markets continue
too heavy to be steadily absorbed, caus
ing all markets to be generally weak,
with price tendencies lower. Trade for
the last week was quiet, but about the
middle of the week, when prices reached
a point considerably lower than the
average cost of the butter now in stor
age, there was an improvement in the
demand for fine butter. All markets did
not advance, but a considerably firmer
tone was noted and there was also a
fair sized export order for unsalted but
ter, which gave some strength to the
market, mostly in a sentimental way
However, the markets were not cleaned
up, and at the close there was consid
erable doubt as to whether demand would
continue heavy enough to keep goods
moving. Receipts are heavier than a
year ago and the surplus in storage
stocks over last year is gradually in
creasing. Very few dealers have confi
dence In the situation; still the market
shows no real sign of a big break and,
ooking to the winter months, many believe-
that storage butter is good prop
erty. The latter look to the excellent
consumptive demand and export orders
to support the markets.

DAMAGE FROM RCST IS SMALL
Spring Wheat Crop tn North Almost Out
of Danger.
Reporting on the condition of the
spring wheat crop the Price Current said
yesterday:
v "Most of the spring wheat nas ad
vanced to a stage where rust will not
injure it. A week or more of favorable
weather will place the bulk of the crop
out .of danger of rust damage. So far
rust damage has affected only a small
percentage of the crop. Corn outlook is
generally good, although some sections
need rain and scattered reports of crops

BIDS ARE STEADY ON" LOCAL BOARD
Only One Large Wheat Buyer in Market
at Present Time.
Business In " the wheat market yester
day was of small proportions. Only one
exporter is active at the present time,
the others evidently having covered their
sales. Mills are showing a lack of in
terest, believing they can buy cheaper
later. At the same time sellers are show
ing no uneasiness and are not inclined ,
to accept current offers. All bids at
the Merchants exchange were the same
as Tuesday. '
The . Chicago telegram to the Gray
Rosenbaum Grain company follows: -
"Undertone of market very weak. Ex

A 10-cent advance in sugar, effective
this morning, was announced by local
jobbers. The new- list price on cane
granulated is $7.80 a hundred.
The daily New York sugar telegram
received yesterday by Overbeck & Cooke
company follows:
"Yesterday's active buying movement
raw sugar absorbed about all the of
ferings of Cubas at 3 cents, about
250,000 bags, and today the lowest of

1500 tons Philippines In port at 5.36 cents
c. i. f. with further buyers of Cubas at
3 cents. A large export business has
been put through by local refiners at 5
cents for September shipment. The do

EXPORT BUSINESS LIFTS CHI
CAGO MARKET.
Gains Later Reduced When Hedg
ing Sales Are Renewed; Of
ferings of Grain Increase.
CHICAGO, July 26. Export DUrchas-j
ing m large amounts crouent aDout a
moderate upturn today in the price of
wheat, but with hedging sales renewed
the gains proved mostly transient. The
market closed unsettled c net lower to
ic advance, with September $1.07 to
$1.07 and December $1.00 t $1.09.
Corn finished c to lc lower, oats
ic to cigher; and provisions
down 20c to 32c.
Urgent buying of red winter wheat for
shipment from ports on the Gulf of Mex
ico was credited to France, and it was
estimated the day's export business in
all positions would total 2,000,000 bush
els, snippers nere, nowever, continued
to say that although there was no ait
ficulty in getting exporters to take wheat
that was loaded or was due to be loaded
in a day or two, anything beyond this
was hard to dispose of.
Offerings of wheat Increased on all
advances in price, with the character of
the selling denoting more hedging from
the country, especially the southwest.
Another bearish influence was the heavy
receipts at primary points, nearly double
the -aggregate a year ago. In addition,
reports from a variety of sources indi
cated that most of the spring crop had
reached a stage beyond danger from
rust. Emergency orders regarding rail
road traffic had no apparent 'effect on
the course of prices.
Corn, like wheat, declined as a result
or enlarged rural orrerings. oats devel
oped strength because of disappointing
threshing reports.
Provisions were depressed by weakness
in the hog market. Packers did much
of the selling.
The Chicago grain letter received yes
terday by the Overbeck & Cooke com
pany of Portland follows:
Wheat Buying by eastern interests,
presumably representing sales for ex
port, contributed to the early strenirth.
but the market encountered persistent
selling by hedgers on each fractional ad
vance and developed weakness before the
close. A feeling of indecision is preva
lent m trade circles because of the dis-
rupted labor situation.. The coal strike
and its effect on the" induustry of the
country is. now causing more concern
than the railroad strike, the latter being
a factor only on' the nearby deliveries.
The cash demand in all markets was re
ported less active and prices lower, ex
cept for choice grades. The tremendous
export business reported yesterday was
said to be largely tilling old sales, which
minimized its effect on the market. It
appears as though the pressure of hedg
ing sales is too great for the limited buy
ing power, and heaviness is likely to ob
tain until there is some incentive to pro
mote aggressive bullish tactics.
Corn This market gave a display of
strength early in the day in sympathy
with wheat, but weakened for the same
reason, notably lack of outside interest
on the buying side and selling by cash
houses against purchases of cash grain
In the country. Receivers reported 'in
creased offerings to arrive, presumably
inspired by the exceptionally favorable
condition of the growing crop, which has
also been a factor in influencing liquidaT
tion of long December contracts. A fair
export business was reported, but the de
mand was said to be less keen than of
late. Unless the cash demand continues
unusually good, it will be difficult to
maintain values in face of a prosective
increase in country selling.
Oats Buying early in the day was con-
lined ostensibly to covering of short con
tracts, and prices weakened as .soon as
the demand from that quarter had been
satisfied. Receipts were estimated at 120
cars and the cash market was relatively
steady. Hedging pressure is a factor in
this market as well as in other grains.
Rye The bulk of the trade today was
between hedgers and seaboard interests.
the latter presumably representing export
sales. Cash rye was easier, with sales
of No. 2 at lc over July.

Chicago Grain Pit Notes.
(By Chicago Tribune leased Wire.)
CHICAGO, July 26. A large export
business in wheat and corn is being done
airect by Chicago and seaboard houses
and is not all reported. This makes it
very difficult for the seaboard to secure
all the information and the trade always
looks to that quarter for export busi
ness. At present an enormous business
is being done direct with the gulf and
sales today were close to 2,000,000 bush
els. Wheat is moving to Galveston and
New Orleans and exporters are bidding
higher prices for wheat within 30 miles
of Chicago to go to New Orleans. Con
siderable business has been done in the
last few days.
Minneapolis had its first car of new
wheat today. It came from South Da
kota, tested 60 pounds and graded No. 1
dark northern and sold at 45c over their
September.
The large number of boats at the ele
vators in Chicago and South Chicago to
load wheat for export are sufficient to
absorb the greater part of the grain on
track. The boats are loading as fast as
possible. On Tuesday 960,000 bushels of
wheat, corn and oats, mostly wheat and
corn, were loadett into boats and there
were also heavy loadings of oats.
a'I8 in the west for th "eek was
560,000 hogs, against 524,000 last year

or 700,000 more hogs than last year.

Transportation Js Becoming
Big Market Factor.
PRICE DRIFT DOWNWARD
Limited Outside Buying Conspic
uous Feature in Chicago
Board of Trade.
BY CHARLES fc. MICHAELS.
(By Chicago Tribune Leased Wire 1
CHICAGO. July 26. Tho question of
transportation is, becoming a big factor
in the grain market. Export business is
enormous arid ia being met by liberal
sales from the country. Limited offer
ings early strengthened values today
out the buying gave out toward the Ir.st
and advances were lost on the near de
liveries of wheat, which closed o to
c lower, while December gained c
Corn closed c to lllc lower, after mak
ing a new low for December, while oats
"uiaueti rlC to c higher, rye, c to
c lower. Provisions were weak and
finished at the bottom, with losses of
20c to 25c on lard.
Hedging sales in wheat were not as
iicav, eariy in the day as of late and
the trading element was less disposed
to press the selling side and many be-
uuyers roiiowing the lead of sea
board exporters, owinir tn ihA hl hni.
ness Tuesday. Liverpool was d lower
eariy, out snowed a fairly good tone.
July closed unchanged while nther fu
tures were off, to d. Late cables
brought a better tone with liberal or
ders. With lighter selling pressure. July
moved up 3c and touched 112, which was
all lost later, September was up to
ana December to $1.10 or
from the early low, but reacted, the
close being about the low noint.
Commission houses and traders sold
on reports of country elevator in the
southwest being filled and cars scarce.
The latter condition is checking the
movement. The limited outside buying
was a conspicuous feature? It was a
factor in the late trading, alter early
buyers started to sell. Crop .news was
generally lavorable except from Mis
souri, where yields are below the aver
age. Corn developed weakness toward the
last and was under pressure from liqui
dators, losing the early advance of c
to c and closing around the bottom,
with December the lowest of the season
so far at 57c. Export business was
not sogood as cash handlers generally
are wdft sold ahead and the country of
fered more corn on the advance.
Shorts in .oats were good buyers early,
bidding July up to 32 c and holding the
greater part of the gain, while distant
months strengthened and were not par
ticularly affected br the break in other
grains. Exporters were in the market
but shipping business on the whole was
lighter.
Rye. was bought by seaboarders, who
reported three cargoes sold abroad. - Fu
tures were sold by cash hedgers and
prices declined, the market showing a
heavy tone all day.'--

Farmers around MeMinnville are In the
midst of harvesting their fall, wheat,
said E. C. Apperson, president of the
MeMinnville National bank, who called
upon officials of the United States Na
tional bank yesterday.- '(The acreage
for fall wheat is normal and the crop is
good," he said, "but spring wheat will
fall far short of an average yield. The
farmers are not making a great deal of
money, but in spite of this conditions in
MeMinnville are good and money seems
to be plentiful."
The wheat crop in the Palouse country
will be about 30 per cent short this sea
son, according to Hawkin Melgard, pres
ident of th First Trust & Savings bank
of Moscow, Idaho, who Is in Portland.
Moscow is located in one of the best
wheat sections in the- entire northwest.
The long period of dry weather and un
favorable conditions have had a detri-.
mental effect upon crops and the farm
ers are suffering as a result.
Conditions In the wheat-growing dis
tricts of Canada are better than they
have been for some time. Crops are be
ing made ready for the harvest and the
prospects for good yields are fair. These
are the statements of L. M. Roberts,
Canadian! representative of G. E. Miller
& Co., who is here for a few days visit
ing the home office.
John Thornburgh, president of the
First National bank of Forest Grove.
