Corn Late Information on corn acreage
!n Oregon indicates that earlier estimates
for the state were too low. The total
acreage for this season appears to be in
excess of 03.000 acres. A special Inquiry
en manner of harvesting was used for
silage. 5 per cent for fodder. 3 per cent
harvested by turning In stock, and 12
per cent harvested as grain. 90 per cent
of the acreage escaped frost damage, and
the injured acreage was practically all
used for feed.
Potatoes Digging results Indicate that
the potato production will fall consider
ably below the estimates of a month ago.
A special inquiry Indicated that 87 per
cent of the crop was still in the ground on
November 1. Weather conditions have
not permitted much digging since that
date. Car lot movements of the Oregon
crop have been very light so far. On No
vember 4 the bureau of markets reported
carload shipments from late potato states
for the season to November 3, Inclusive,
as follows: Oregon 25. Washington 1141.
Idaho 2417. California 5706, Montana 237.
Colorado 5808, other states 73.743; total
1)1, 2ol.
Apples The apple crop, both total and
commercial, is easily the largest the state
has ever produced and the quality Is prob
ably the best. For the first time the
Willamette valley has produced a consid
erable number of carloads of high-class
apples. The southern Oregon crop was
larger than at any time in recent years.
' Hood Kiver, The Dalles district and Mil-ton-Kreewater
all have the largest crops
ever produced. The total commercial pro
duction for the state. It will be noted, is
estimated at nearly double the amount of
last year, being approximately 52U0 car
loads of 756 boxes each.
Fall seeding The Intended amount of
fall seeding has not yet been done in the
western part of the sue. In the eastern
part of the state rale and snow about Oc-
. tober 20 delayed seeding, but was of great
help to seeding, which had been done "in
the dust."
WHEAT PREMIUMS MAT NOT DROP
STOCK SELLING IS FREE
STEELS, EQUIPMENT. MOTORS
AI OIIS SLUMP,
Scotch Oats Crop Ugbter.
The official bulletin for Scotland, dated
October 1, reported wheat and barley all
harvested by the end of September. The
oats harvest was well advanced, nearly all
being cut. but a part Btill remains to be
carried in the Highlands, while In the late
districts the progress with the Ingathering
was not so satisfactory. Where the grain
has been secured it was generally of good
quality, although the bulk Is under aver
age; some sprouting and heating are re
ported to have occurred, but not to a seri
ous extent
Movement Due to Announcement
Government Will Press Injunction
Proceedings Against Miners.
NEW TORK, Nov. 8. Selling of stocks
was resumed during today's brief but
lively session, the movement being prompt
ed by the news that the federal admin
istration would press Its injunction pro
ceedings against the striking miners.
The same shares which suf fened great
est depreciation in the week's several
reactions were again singled out for pres
sure. Steels, equipments, motors and oils
recorded extreme declines of 2 to 7 points.
In a number of cases lowest quotations
of the week were made and among some
of the more speculative issues recent ad
vances of 5 to -0 poin ta were effaced.
Sales amounted to 775,000 shares.
Conditions in the bond market were
mixed, liberty Issues easing again with
most domestic issues. An irregular trend
was shown by leading foreign issues. To
tal sales, par value, aggregated J9.500.0K).
Old United States bonds were unchanged

Hard Wheat Stocks in Government Bands
Said to He Small.
The government's purpose to resell wheat
to millers is not likely to reduce the, pre
miums on hard wheat, as it is understood
the government is holding but little of this
variety.
At the opening at Minneapolis millers
were out of the market because of the re
sale announcement and the discontinuing of
the individual permit system, but be lore
the market closed they reappeared and bids
were again on the basis of $3 for No. 1
spring. As for soft wheat, when the
government begins to sell It plus the carry
ing charges, there will probably be a ma
terial advance in the premiums quoted.
The order cancelling the permit system has
not been extended to this territory, but the
trade expects such an announcement soon.
There is not enough wheat left in the
northwest, grain men say, to cause fear of
the terminal markets being overloaded.
The coarse grain market was quiet. Corn
bids at the exchange were reduced 75cSl,
oats were unchanged and barley was. 50c
$1 higher. The San Francisco barley mar
ket was strong with sales of December at
J3.47 and Aiay at 3.43tt.
Weather conditions in the middle west,
as wired from Chicago: "Northern, cen

eastern Kansas. Omaha district, cloudy,

TIGHTNESS OF MONEY MAY CONTINCE
Little Relaxation Expected L'ntU Turn
of tile Yeur.
NEW YORK. Nov. 8. Money was the
pivot around which this week's stock
market revolved, sometimes with furious
rapidity. Important Industrial and polit
ical events were forgotten or Ignored in
progressive financial developments which
pointed to world-wide tightening of cred
its. The advance in discounts by the
federal reserve bank was accompanied by
the intimation against the excessive use
of capital for speculative purposes. This
was followed by the virtual depletion of
time money here, and an advance, the
first since early 1917. of the Bank of
England rate. '
Several episodes were sufficient to ef
fect a sharp revision of speculative es
timates, but the recesslojl gathered fresh
momentum when local banks began to
curtail loans. Call money several times
opened at 12 per cent, the highest initial
rate of the year, and twice mounted to the
year's maximum rate of 20 per cent.
Sellings naturally centered in steels,
equipments, motors and oils, rails most
of the time displaying conspicuous
strength.
Extreme reactions of 5 to 20 points In
the more volatile shares were partially
retrieved, but fresh selling developed at
the week-end on the more acute labor sit
uation, the market closing with m weak
and disorganized tone.
In well informed banking circles the
opinion prevailed that money would show
little if any relaxation until the turn
of the year.
Divers features of the International
financial situation were presented by fur
ther weakness In foreign exchange and
the successful flotation of the British and
French municipal loans.

sent to officials of the federal gov
ernment at Washington demands for
a partitioning: of the timber lands
on the reservation and the pro rata

The tribal council and members ol
the allied tribes, prominent Oregon
and California citizens and the Ore
Ron legislative delegation at Wash
ington are supporting the movement,
for which a bill has been submitted
to congress for enactment.
Partition of the property of the
Indians would open much valuable

investment and improvements worth
millions of dollars to southern Ore
gon, its advocates assert. It would
add $33,000,000 to the assessed valu
ation of Klamath county, it ia estimated.
Bonds
Canadian and Foreign
These Canadian and Foreign Government Bonds give investors the opportunity of
buying very safe and attractive investment securities at prices that will yield unusually
high interest returns. This is due to the low rate of sterling and of other foreign
exchange. All of these bonds here listed are payable in Gold in New York City, which
means you are guaranted a fixed interest return, payable in gold coin of the present
standard and value, and not in the exchange of some foreign government which
fluctuates from time to time.

University Faculty Asks Congress
to Change Weight Standard.
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Eu
gene, Nov. 8. (Special.) The faculty
of the University of Oregon, in
with a request made by San Fran
Cisco manufacturing interests pro
moting the change, went on record at
its November meeting in favor of the
adoption by the United States and
Great Britain of the metric system as
the exclusive standard of weights and
measures. A resolution was adopted
asking that congress for the United
fetates and parliament for Great
Uritaln abandon Ihe present fcyctem
in favor of the one in use in most
parts of the civilised world.
Scientists in both countries, it is
pointed out, have been seeking the
adoption of the new system. Indus
trial men are advocating the change
in the interest of better business.
