TTTE ST7XDAY OREGOXIAN, PORTLAND, JUNE 10, 1917. 13 WDOLSEASQH OPENS First Oregon Public Sales Are Scheduled for This Week. SOME MAY BE POSTPONED Delay In Shearing and Hauling Is Likely to Call for New Dates. Clip Has Been Well Sold TJp In Otter Sections. The latter part of the coming week will sea the real opening of the Oregon wool market, according to the schedule of public sale, but there la a possibility that some vf the salea will have to be postponed owing to the delay In shearing. At other points, particularly at Bend, It is reported the sales may be dispensed with, as most of the dip has been sold on contract Figure sent from Bend indicate that 600,000 pounds of the estimated clip of 700.000 pounds has al ready passed out of growers' hands. The market ts very strong; at all points. Eastern Oregon growers are by no means disposed to rush Into the market and they may turn down the buyers' offers at the salea as was done at Mountain Home. Ida., last week. In the Lakevlew district the record price of 60 cents was reported paid by a buyer for R- s, Stanfleld, who took n 60,000 fleeces. Within a few weeks, it Is estimated, some 6.000,000 pounds of wool and mohair, from the spring clip In Texas, will be sold at Ban Angelo, where the first sale of the sea son was heid on May 81. The experience of recent years has been that no agreement would be reached between buyers and sellers sit onoe, so the first sale was not expected to produce much In the- way of business. .Scattered clips have been contracted In Texas, 12 months wool, on the clean basis laid down at Boston of $1.15 to $1.25. A small amount of Texas wool and mohair has been consigned to that market. , Good reasons exist for the boom In the ifforoestlo wool market. According to fig ures compiled by a trade authority In ref erence to the Government demands. 88 pounds of clean wool would be required for the outfit of one soldier. A million men, there fore, would require 88,000.000 pounds of the clean product. This means something like 70,000.000 pounds of greasy wool, all of medium grades, of which the proportion In the domestlo clip Is relatively small. Moreover, this does not provide for the re newal of the outfit, which would be needed very shortly In the event of the soldiers going Into active warfare In the trenches of Europe. With the main dependence of the coming months on the domesticcllp of wool. It Is no wonder that buyers are excited ever securing what they can of the avail able supplies of foreign medium wools now available. WHEAT SUPPLIES VEARLY EXHArSTED Market Advance Steadily With Very Small Demand Flour Is Strong. . Wheat was firm at all points In the North west yesterday. It was :he scarcity of stocks, however, rather than any noteworthy demand that pnt prices up. Still, there was some inquiry from millers on the Coast and In the Interior, but there were no offerings on the market and so little Is left In the country that dealers do not take the trouble of calling up the usual outside points. The market on the whole was about 5 cents better than the preceding day. At the Merchants' Exchange the few bids post ed ranged from 3 to 5 cents over Friday's, with $2.61 offered for bluestem and $2.50 for club. At Seattle where millers were Interested, $2.64 was bid for bluestem and $2.60 for club, with sellers asking about 10 cents over these prices. Tho same condition prevails In the oats market, supplies being very closely cleaned np at all points. At Seattle, oats sold at $50 and the same price was bid on additional amount, but on the local board the best offer was $46.50. Ban Francisco stocks remaining In call board warehouses on June 1 : Wheat 6553 tons; barley S309 tons; oats 535 tons; corn 884 tons; beans 74,141 sacks. Receipts dur ing May: Wheat 10.573 tons; barley 6015 tons; oats 2524 tons; corn 1376 tons; bran 7039 tons: hay 6761 tons: beans 93.075 sacks. Terminal receipts.

The strawberry supply was short of the demand yesterday, but two or three days of warm weather should bring in enough to put prices on a lower basis. The day's receipts of northern berries spld at $3.50 to $4.50, and the few Callfomtas, which were rather poor, brought $2.25. Shipments from Kennewlck were cut down sharply. Cherries remain firm on account of the strong Eastern demand for California fruit. Apricots are coming In mor freely and will be cheaper this week. Navel oranges will be offered for a few days longer. Bananas are advancing again at the aeaboard and another rise Is ex- .-peoted here. The Eastern demand for potatoes con. ' tlnues and shipments will be made as long as any stock remains. The local trade In old .potatoes is light, .but new potatoes are selling more actively as the price declines. Onions are also easier. Local green vege tablea are beginning to take the place pf Egr Baying- lias Slackened. Sgg buying was on a reduced scale In the latter half of the week and this caused prices to ease off. Butter was steady at the close. A decline was looked for, but strength suddenly de veloped in tne tan Francisco market and this held prices even here. Poultry and dressed meats were quiet and unchanged. Spokane Crops Make Progress. The following report from Waldo G. Paine, of Spokane, has been Issued by the North Bank line: "Grain crops making good progress and weather is Ideal. Some seeding yet to do. Potato acreage large and doing well. .

Indirectly, through the "freeze out" of most of the bees of local apiaries, the severe cold weather of last Winter will cost the apple growers of the Hood River Valley thousands of dollars, according to H. F. Davidson, owner of large local orchard holdings and formerly president of the North Pacific Fruit Distributors. Mr. Davidson, follow ing a tour of inspection of local orchards yesterday, says that a heavy drop Is occur Ing in most all orchards, including cherries and other fruits as well aa apples, because of lack of pollenizatlon. 'I asked growers If- they heard any bees working during blossoming season." said Mr. Davidson, "and most of them told me that the Insects were scarcely noticeable this year. As a result, the pollen was not prop erly scattred. It la true that the drop la more noticeable among trees that bore most heavily last season, but I believe that a great deal of the falling of the young fruit could have been prevented If we had more bees here. I advise growers to take care of their apiaries. If the bees happen to freeze out, growers will find It a paying in vestment to restock them at once. You can not grow fruit successfully, I find, without bees." THe bloom of the local cherry trees waa the heaviest ever seen. A week ago the drop began, and growers reported prospects for a normal yield. It now seems that the cherry crop will be very light here this sea son. Mr. Davidson says that the continued cold weatner nas caused tne rirst picKlng 01 loca strawberries to be smaller than on normal years. "But with a few days of this warm weather,' he says, "the fruit will develop rapidly. The berries are of fine quality and will ship mighty well." Lewlston Fruit Crop Promising. LEWISTON. Idaho, June 9. (Special.) Never has the fruit crop in the Lewiston dis trict been more promising than at the pres' ent. The warm, sunshiny days have de veloped the fruit to such an extent that the trees are well filled and a bumper crop is expected. Driers are Delng installed In many localities, as the people prefer to handle their surplus fruit In this manner than to can it, on account of the high cost of sugar. High prices for all produce Is expected by the growers and a number of buyers have entered the field this year, which would in dicate that there will be competitive buy ing on the local market.

FORECAST IS BULLISH Chicago Trade Expected Improve ment In Conditions In Past Month Would Be Revealed Broad Activity In Corn Market. CHICAGO, June 9. Big jumps In wheat prices took place today as result of the smallness of tha 1917 crop. Indicated by the Government report. After an extreme leap of 16 cents a bushel the market closed firm. 0 to 11 net higher with July at $2.30 and September at $2.02. .Corn gained H to 714o; oats ltto to So and provisions 15o to 30c It had been generally expected that wheat crop Improvement during the last month would be shown to have been much greater than turned out to be the case. Activity on a broad scale characterized the corn market. Heavy buying made prices advance rapidly. The chief stimulus to purchase came from cold weather. Con siderable buying was said to bo In progress" on the theory that meats would continue to sell at high prices, and corn, therefore, would be. In urgent demand for feeding. Bullish constructions of the Government crop report tended to lift oats. The official estimate of the yield was not so large as had been generally expected. Provlsiona went upward with grains. No tice also was taken of reports that a large amount of provisions In Argentina had been destroyed by fire. Leading futures ranged as follows: WHEAT. Open. High. Low. Close.

CHICAGO, June 9. Sudden establishment of a maximum price limit on corn proved by far the most important feature this week in the grain trade. The effect, how ever, instead of being sedative, as In the case of wheat, led to a notable expansion of trading and to a big bulge in values. As compared with a week ago, corn this morning was 8Uc to 16c higher. Upward flights of the corn market seemed large due to the fact that $1.65 a bushel, the maximum price set by the directors of the board of trade, was much above the quotations which had been current before the action of the directors was taken. In the case of wheat, on the other hand, the maximum named was below the level which the market had previously attained. Un favorable weather, unusual lightness of re ceipts and increasing demand, both domestic and foreign, were among the reasons as signed for the general eagerness which de veloped for the purchase of corn and for the consequent excited upward rush of prices. Psortn . American available supplies of corn were estimated at 4,856,000 bushels i against 16.U69.000 bushels a year ago. Efforts to buy small amounts of wheat on a market bare of offerings had much to do with hoisting the cost of breadstuff material. The chief rise - took place after announcement that the Government intended to protect growers in marketing their crops and that prices would be guaranteed high enough to stimulate production. Notice was also taken of the fact that hedging sales of the new croo were scarce, and stocks at all Western terminal points un usually meager. Bearish forecasts of the Government crop report exerted only a tran sient depressing influence. Oats hardened in response to the strensrth of other cereals. Ioubtlees the advance would have been more pronounced but for predictions that the Government crop report would be radically against the bulls. Foreign advices were not encouraging to nomers or provisions. European Interests, It was said, became liberal sellers at times, especially of lard. Minneapolis Grain Markets. MINNEAPOLIS, June 0.

WAR STOCKS AT TOP Highest Prices of Year Scored by Leading issues. RAILS JOIN IN ADVANCE Country's Response to Liberty Loan One of Chier Factors In Week's Improvement Money Mar ket Continues Easy. NEW YORK. June 9. Events of the week seemed to warrant the sustained optimism manifested In the stock market. The trend of trade was almost steadily upward. War shares rose to highest quotations of the year and in such Issues as United States Steel and the Bethlehem Steels all previous records were surpassed. The advance en countered increasing liquidation and a ten tative renewal Of selllnv fn. ilinrt imnnf but fn no Important instance did these op posing Influences seriously affect quoted valves. Rails were the last jof tbs representative stocks to move, rising from 1 to almost 3 polr.ts Immediately after publication of the Government crop report. Time and call loans ruled at recent levels, but firmer tendencies are likely to manifest themselves with the appearance of the midyear. Indications that banks are disposed to show more discrimination In the placing of loans on mixed or industrial collateral were regarded as a natural pre caution In view of the extent to which the latest boom In speculative issues has been carried. According to gossip current among com mission houses, the West and Northwest contributed largely to the week's greater speculative demand. Daily transactions were again very large, although curtailed by the observation of registration day aa holiday. Encouraging signs resulting from the country's response to the call of the Gov ernment, unabated activity In virtually all lines of Industry, eaay monetary conditions and the' June crop report, which was favor able as a whole, constituted the chief factors. Activity of pools in a wide variety of stocks, mostly of the war class, detracted from the strength of the general mover ment. Russian affairs again served to restrain enthusiasm regarding the International situation. Rubles fell to a depreciation In excess of 50 per cent and Russian gov ernment bonds surrendered their recent partial recovery. Other international Issues held their ground, with an unusual inquiry for Anglo Krench 5s at a resultant gain. Outflow of gold to Spain and Japan con tinues in large volume on the existing; credit conditions which favor these coun tries. OVERBEGK & COOKE CO. Brokers. Stocks. Bonds. Cotton. Oraln. BCte.
