MERCIAL AND
flo conditions for tho week ending
erday were quite favorable, and busl-
, allowed an Improvement over that of
reek previous. Tills la somewhat un
it the last week In tho month Is
rr recorded as being particularly fa
ble for trade. There has been a
fair movement In produce during
week. In spite of the fact that good
ather for form work has kept farmers
fcosy at home la many localities. Wheat,
,n eplte of the unsatisfactory prices. Is
ying more freely, and the shipments
March showed & slight gain over
for the preceding month. The mar-
rough tho week ruled slightly 'better
, on the week- previous, but the
of freights continues to be the
; drawback to a free movement. The
ad for potatoes has fallen away to
'an extent that many of the buyers
lout of the market, and those who are
', looking for spuds have their limits
In most cases, to tho wrong aids
IRG cents. Of course, there Is an occa-
lal lot .ot fancy Burbanks which will
hS. a few cents over these figures, but
-ere are too -many new potatoes coming
to hand to admit of the price for old'
making very much of on advance.
California vegetables are arriving by the
carload, and peas, beans,- asparagus, cu
cumbers, etc,, are plentiful at steadily de
clining prices. There is an oversupply of
hotnouso lettuce In the market, and con
cessions In prices are made in order to
'clean np stock. Another carload of
bananas arrived 'yesterday, and as they
were In fine condition found ready sale,
although prices are higher than they have
been. The butter market la decidedly
weak, and creameries will make a further
-reduction In the price of butter fat during
'the coming week. Eggs were dull for the
greater part of the week, Tiut seem to
ha.ve steadied up a little at tho close, on
account of a good many going Into cold
storage. There Is some sale tor single
cases at 11 cents, but In round lots 11
cents Is the outside figure, and If tho
'Eastern market continues to decline there
will be some difficulty in making them
move even at that figure. Poultry was
dull for the greater' part of the week,
receipts being entirely too large for the
demand, and prices were off over Jl as
compared with those of a week ago.
Pork opened the week well, but fell away
towards the close, and was hard to move
yesterday at 6 cents for the best. The
hop market Is In an Indifferent condi
tion. There an a few sales made all the
time, but as m,ost ot them are for Inferior
stock the price Is so small as to be un
interesting. New York advices state that
there are less than 0000 bales unsold In
that state outside of New York City, and
that there was a firm feeling for fancy
goods, with Inferior stock neglected. The
wool market is quiet, and mohair has de
clined a cent.

For the season to date, Portland has

bushels of wheat and S5S.249 barrels tjf
flour at a corresponding date lost year.
Tho Sound has shipped to date 2.205.503
bushels of wheat and CS5.033 barrels of
Sour, compared with 5,8G2r3 bujhels ot
wheat and 477,253 barrels of flour for the
same period last season. This makes
a grand total of 16,115,923 bushels for the
first nine months of the current cereal
year, compared with 21.5SS.9e5 bushels for
the same date last season, and 21.409,974
bushels for the corresponding date In the
season of 1S97-9S. The movement this sea
son to date hns averaged something less
than 2,000,000 bushels per month, which
In ordinary years in the past would be
considered good business, but of course
does not compare favorably with the two
record-breaking years which preceded it.
There is still enough wheat In the coun
try to pull the average up materially In
the remaining three months of tho cereal
year, Tjut the scarcity of tonnage will In
terfere with this being done, even should
the. market advance to a price which
would be satisfactory to growers. There
have been some signs of strength all
through the past week, and, while open
quotations were seldom above SS cents for
either Walla Walla or Valley, .very few
sales were made at less than B3V4 cents,
and 64 and even 55 cents was reported paid
In the Interior.
Mr. M. A. Toomey, treasurer of tho
Pennsylvania Milling Company, has Just
returned from an 11 months' stay in
Europe, looking after the Interests of his
company. He says that, while the United
Kingdom has not over three weeks stocks
of foreign wheat. It has gotten Into the'
habit of buying from hand to mouth, and
does not carry stocks of any size any
more. Beside, their native wheats -are not
used up, and are selling so low that they
are only drawing enough hard wheats
from America to mix with them and the
Argentine wheats, which are cheaper
than ours and make a good blend with our
Spring wheats, as English millers now
generally make blended flours. He said the
prices received for English -wheats by the
farmers are hardly equal to what they
are paying for American mill feed for
their stock, and that the wheat lands of
Great Britain are being part changed Into
pasturage for livestock, chiefly sheep. The
Continent has fair supplies of wheat, and
he does not look for any unusual demand
for either our wheat or flour for the
balance of this crop year.

Professor Shovr Believes Thnt Pot
ash Is Best for Oregon Soils.
COHVALLIS. Or.. March 30.-In this ar
ticle tho writer proposes to set forth in
some detail reasons for the statement that
whenever fertilisers are needed In Western
Oregon and Washington they should un
doubtedly be strong in potash. This con
clusion has not been reached hurriedly
but after very careful Investigation of a
large number of soils, which characteriio
the sections above mentioned. This con
clusion has been strengthened by the In
vestigation of other Workers and by fruit
growers themselves. 1 deem It best, under
tho conditions of this discussion, to dwell
on the fact that potash Is an essential ele
ment In plant productions Just long enough
to mention authorities who have demon
strated this beyond question to any who
are not blindly prejudiced In the premises.
It Is, of course. Impossible to go Into de
tails of all tho experiments at this time
and wo can only cite that about 200 trials

with oats, barley ejid colza, subjected to a
great variety of artificial mixtures, have
been described by such workers as Sato,
Hortmor and numerous others. It is not
out of place here to state tho function of
this essential element as found by the
above-named authorities, as well as by
Mercadante,, Schroeder and Erdman. the
more especially since tho condition of our
frults after several years' growth, consld.
cred In tho light of this demonstrated
function, gives circumstantial evidence of
its limited amount In tho soils In question.
Tho function of this element, as demon
strated by the workers above referred to,
may bo summarized as follows:
First It is essential for tho assimila
tion of carbon and its elaboration Into
starch, giving strength to tho cell tissue.
Thus the plant suffers greatly in Its woody
portion latho absence of, potash In requi
site quantities.
Second It Is associated with starch In
Its translocation from cell to cell and in
Its formation into sugar. Hence the slzo
and quality of fruit Is materially affected
by a deficiency of potash
Third It Is required for a proper devel
opment of fruit acids, so Important In Im
parting on agreeable flavor to fruits.
Having thus fet.forth the above func
tions which science has demonstrated to
be true concerning tho .relation of potash
to plant growth. It remains to state the
evidence on which rests my belief In the
need of potash on the soils of the North
west, west of tho Cascades. This evi
dence I shall develop under two heads
(A) circumstantial evidence: (B) direct ev
idence. The former would lead us to con
clusions from a priori reasons. Under this
head I beg to discuss, first, tho sources of
tho mineral constituents of the colls hero
found; second, the condition of fruit trees
as to general health, as to flavor of fruit,
as to the keeping quality of tho fruit.
First Soils are formed by the natural
disintegration and abrasion of the original
rock masses. This being the case, it fol
lows that a study of the chemical char
acteristics of tho rocks of a specified re
gion will at least give some clue as to
what may be expected to be present In
relatively large or small quantities In tho
resulting soils. To Illustrate: In regions
in which Umestono rocks are abundant,
soils aro markedly calcareous. It may be
argued that tho- process of weathering.
Including tho solvent action of the water,
changes the proportions In which these
soil Ingredients are present. This I admit
In certain cases, but It cannot In any case
go so far as to supply material which is
not present in the parent rock, nor to make
a soil even fairly supplied with an ele
ment which Is present In only limited
quantities In the parent rock, and. In fact.
In this particular case, the soluble salts
bf potash, as developed from the Insoluble
minerals, largely fsJdspar, as shown by
Merrill, will be to a considerable extent
lost, provided tho soils thus formed are
subjected to heavy leaching, which will
bo tho case throughout the region In ques
tion. Bearing these points in mind. then,
let us consider the character of the parent
rock of these soils. This is mainly basalt,
resulting from the great lava overflow, and
the lesser subsequent ones, which coveted
the whole of Northern California and a
great part of Oregon, Washington and
Idaho. It Is true that basalt Is a complex
rock and carries the fertilizing elements
of a. variety of rocks; but It is still further
truo that the composition of tho constttu.
cnt minerals In the basalt influences the
chemical characteristics of tho soil. I pass
over the varietlM of basalt. Inasmuch as
they cut no figure in the discussion, and
conflno myself- to tho particular variety
present In the locality In question, namely,
plagloclaso basalt. This class of basalts
consists essentially of the minerals plaglo,
clase, englte. magnetite, with apatite and
olivine as accessory Ingredients. Of these
ccnstltutnts. plajdoclaso Is the one which
demands closo attention. Inasmuch as it
Is commonly recognized that clay soils
ore the result of tho disintegration and de
composition of feMspathlc rock, to which
class this mineral belongs, and that such
soils aro usually rich In potash. This is
undoubtedly true, but It does not follow
that the decomposition of all feldspars pro
duce soils rich In nntnvh fnr cnm ri,i
.spars are far from being potash-bearing.
no iue mai ciay spits are rich In potash
sprang from the wide predominance of
such soils resulting from the orthoc:ase
feldspars of tho East. It Is a great mis
tako to make this conclusion a general one,
for the plagioclastlo division of feldspars.
Including, as It does, ollgoclase, labrador
He. ar.orthlte or andeslte, are all non
Dotash bearinf?. hut It la nn. n- ..
theso plagioclastlc feldspars soda lime
compounds which exist In the basalts of
this region. There are, however, as as
sociate minerals not essential a limited
quantltyof pitash-bcarlngmlncralsprcscnt
often In these rocks. Hence, the presence
of more or less potash In soils derived
from this class of rocks. Tho fact still
remains, however, that from a priori rea
son of soil origin, we would expect to find
tho soils to be quite limited In potash con
tent. This condition is still more to be
expected from the tendency of' the potash
Ingredients toward loss In the process, of
roll decomposition. This Is illustrated by
tho following annly8C9. which are typical
of basaltic rocks. A rock of this charac
ter, carrying Si per cent of potash, after
decompoFltlon. by weathering, showed but
20 per cent, a loss of 61 per cent of tho
total. Other Illustrations might be died,
but we shall let this suffice as an Illus
tration. (Merrill, "Rocks and Their De
composition." page 223). Still further there
m'ght be ndded the annual less cf available
potash compounds through the medium of
very heavy rnlns, common to this section
during the Winter months. Theso are. I
say, reasons for expecting a soil of lim
ited potash content. G. W. SHAW.

CHICAGO, March 3L The wheat market
concluded a month which has boosted tho
price of May wheat up lfiinHc in n very
quiet manner. In vain did holders point
to tho higher cables from Liverpool, and
again without effect to tho reports of
damages by rain to the Argentine crop.
Those who were selling serenely called at
tention to the liberal receipts, the fine
weather and the crop prospects, which
point to bulging bins at the end of next
Summer's harvest. So there was not tho
demand today that characterized yester
day's session, and there seemed to bo
plenty for sale, but It was not a large
.speculative market. At tho opening thrre
was a short-winded upward spurt on the
bullish considerations, but thereafter It
was the other way. Export sales -were
light, but seaboard clearances in wh-sat
and flour were equal to 622,000 bushets. The
cash demand was slock.
The com market had some strength
early, becauce of the higher cables from
Liverpool and the usual light country .of
ferings. May selling at 29c several times,
but this was lost. The weather probably
acted along with a desire for profits In
causing liquidation. May closed HGHe
under yesterday.
The oats market yielded with other
selling of both July nnd May by a cash
""" -uuj- cioseo. ac tower.
There was nothing like a repetition ol
the activity of tho recent days in the pro.
visions pit today. The market was easier,
too. Hogs were generally weaker; thcr
was profit-taking nnd some selling on stop,
loss orders and less of an outside demand
than during tho period which 031716(1 May
pork for gains of more than $1. Liver
pool was lowet for lard. The feature ol
the trade was the demand for May ribs.
May pork closed 10c under yesterday. May

EIGHT MONTH'S TRADE.
Details Show Sisrprislnjc Commercial
Developments.
WASHINGTON. March 27. The details
of our foreign commerce for the eight
mont'jo ending with February are as re
markable and as gratifying ns these re
lating to the grand total for that month,
which, as announced some days ago, sur
passed tho record of any preceding Febru
ary. The details of the export and Import
figures for tho eight months ending with
February show surprising developments in
our commerce, and especially that which
relates to manufactures. An Increased
Importation of raw materials for the use
of our manufacturers and an Increased
exportation of manufactured articles arc
the striking features of the February
statement of Imports and exports. The
Importation of "articles In a crude condi
tion which enter ,into the various processes
of domestic Industry" ntnounted In tho
eight months ending with February. 1300.
to $195,237,754. against $134,781,199 In the cor
responding months ot the preceding fiscal
year, an Increase of $53,000,000; while ex
portation of manufactures In tho same
time were $2CS.5J7,972. against $206,822,237 In
the corresponding months of last year, an
Increase of $61,000,000. Thus the Importa
tion of manufacturers' materials increased
during the eight months In question $60,
000,000 and the exportation of manufac
tured goods Increased $61,000,000 In the
same time. In the 2S daya of February,
the Importation of manufacturers' mate-'
rials amounted to $25,926,601, or nearly
$1,000,000 a day, and the exportation of
manufactured goods amounted to $34,226,
123, or. In round terms, $1,250,000 for every
day In the month. In the eight months
ending with February, the exportation of
manufactures averaged $1,100,000 per day
(Including Sundays and holidays), while In
the corresponding months of the preceding
year the average dally exportation 'of
manufactures was only $S51,70): In tho cor
responding months of 1895-37, it was hut
$700,000. and In tho samo months of 1S35-M.
but $333,000. -
Thus the cxportatlons of manufactures
during the eight months ending with Feb
ruary, 1S0O, arc double thoso of tho
corresponding months ending with Feb
ruary, 1S9S. while the Importations of man
ufacturers' material In the eight monthi
ending with February, 1900. are 23 per
cent In exeem of those of tho correspond
ing eight months ending with February.
1S96, nnd nearly double those of the eight
months ending with February. 1S37. Manu
facturers' materials, which In the e'ght
months ending with February, 18D3. formed
2S per cent of the total Import", formed
25 per cent In the eight months erdlng
with February, 1900, while manufactures
which In thp eight months ending with
February. 1896. formed 21 per cent of the
total exports, formed 29.7 per cent In the
eight months ending with February. 190).
The following table shows the Importa
tion of manufacturers' materials and the
exportation of manufactured goods In the
eight months ending with February for
each year from 1EJ0 to lTOO. and the per
