turers time a little too strenuously, and
that now they must begin to think of
themselves For it is certain that the
only parties that have rotten any ad
vantage out of the recent slump In wool
I are the manufacturers. Dealers have had
to content themselves with the negative
benefit that they were stopped from buy
ing too heavily at top prices, though the
downward trend of values let them In
for tremendous losses on what wool they
had in stock, and especially on the wools
bought early In the west.
'It Is. manifest that any recovery In
values at this time would be of bene
fit to them, as there ia no longer any
Question of purchases. Ko dealers ' can
be found here who would be willing to
buy heavily under present conditions, even
on the present level of values and even
If the growers were willing to sell. They
ar getting consignments In sufficlsnt
volume to take up about all the available
cash in making the necessary advances,

CHUCIBLE STEEL STRONG
STOCK DISTRIBUTION SENDS
PRICE HIGHER,
The commercial apple crop of Oregon
will be about 60 per cent of last year,
estimates F. L. Kent, field agent of the
government bureau of crop estimates, from
replies received from several hundred in
quiries sent out to growers of the state.
The December. 1919. estimate was 4.0T1.000
boxes, and on th basis of 60 per cent
this year's Commercial crop should be
2.800.000 boxes. The 1818 crop was 2,013.
000 boxes.
The 1919 Oregon commercial pear crop
was estimated at 615.000 bushels and the
1018 crop at 406.000 bushels. The 1020
pear crop now promises about 60 per cent
of last year or 360,000 bushels.
The Oregon peach crop, says Mr. Kent,
lies probably never before been so near a
failure as this year. Except in the Ash
land and Grants Pass district, the pros
pect is "no crop this season." Two hun
dred acres In the Ashland district are re
ported as having 80 per cent of a crop; no
material loss of trees from winter killing;
some loss from spring frosts. In Lane.
Linn and Benton counties probably 25 per
cent of the trees were killed. In the Balem
district practically ail peach trees In many
orchards were killed. A few Marion coun
ty orchards suffered but very little loss
of trs. but there is no fruit. In The
Dalles district there was soma loss tof
peach trees and a total failure of fruit
in most orchards. The Milton-Freewater
district reports no peach crop this season
with loss of trees ranging from nothing In
some orchards to 50 per cent in others.
A smalt acreage In" Malheur and Baker
counties raports no fruit this year.
The Hood River Growers' association
estimates the total apple acreage at 16.000
with the crop prospect 60 per cent of last
yesr. Tabulated reports Indicate a winter
kill of 3.0 per cent In apple trees In Hood
River valley. The tabulation Includes one
orchard of 35 acres reporting 40 per cent
of the trees killed. This figure (3.0 per
cent) Is much too high for the valley
as a whole. In the Fine Grove district
there was a very heavy loss, but In most
other districts there was practically no
loss. For the county as a whole the loss
is estimated by local men at 4 to 2 per
cent of the total number of trees. One
report says: "A good many trees not
killed show frost injury or were Injured
enough to make them drop their blossoms.
The fruit generally Is reported as being
clean and of gcod slxs. Pear trees also
suffered to some extent. There was
heavy Dioom, but there has also been a
heavy drop. A light crop Is in prospect.
The Mosier Fruit Growers' association
estimates the district apple area at TOO
acres with a crop prospect of 50 per cent
of last year. The Mosier report says
100 early to tell now many trees are
killed outright; many are Injured, ranging
from ono limb to half of the tree: others
injured all over. These latter will eventu
ally die, probably. District loss will prob
ably be about S per cent." Considerable
spring frost damage In the Dufur district
but development ' of young orchards will
make the crop larger than lust year.
One report covering the whole of Benton
county places the apple acreage at 1200
and the crop prospect 60 per cent of last
r. Jackson County Agent Cate says:
"We are -now figuring on an apple crop
of about 300 cars against 500 last year,
and a pear crop of 500 cars against 800
last year." The Marlon county fruit In
spector reports the apple crop prospect at
20 per cent of last year. Lane county re
ports the apple prospect 55 per cent of last
year.

NEW YORK. July 17. For all practical
purposes today's session of the stock mar
ket was barren of results, the yacht race
dwarfing interest in most things of a
financial character.
The only unusual Incident was a sharp
advance of almost 10 points in Crucible
Steel at the opening, on news of an un
expectedly large stock distribution, but
that issue forfeited half its gain later
cashing of profits.
Other leaders registered no material
change, aside from WeHsiFargo Express
and National Aniline. Sales were 135,000
shares.
Actual loans and discounts of the clear
ing house disclosed an increase of over
$42,000,000 against last week's iarge eon
traction, and cash reserves rose about
$19,200,0000. which makes up almost half
of the previous week's loss.
There was a fair Inquiry for popular
bonds, including the foreign group, but
liberty issues continued to lag. Total
sales (par value). $3,123,000. Old United
States bonds were unchanged on call dur
ing the week.

CHICAGO. July 17. Trading in wheat
id not show much activity today. The
weakness in the northwest curbed the
buying power and caused prices to break
harply. At the close wheat showed a
net loss of 7 cents, compared with yes
terday's close, with final prices ranging
rom 3c to 6c under Initial quotations.
with December $2.53 and March $2.38.
Corn was off c to lc and oats were c
c lower. Provisions showed substan
tial gains.
Tne wheat market started reasonably
teady, owing to spreading operations, but
.-hole the market exhibited a weak
tone. Commission houses were mainly on
he selling side and this caused a sharp
break in prices. Country offerings of
wheat to arrive were reported heavy and
liberal purchases to arrive were reported
by many of the big elevator concerns
Claims of black rust damage received by
some houses were offset by the weakness
in the northwest markets. There waa
little speculative activity and the lack of
buying power was a depressing factor.
The Chicago market letter received yes
terday by the Overbeck A Cook company
of Portland, said:
Wheat There was no conspicuous trad
ing at any time during the session. Buy
ing power was lacking and the market
broke sharply on selling encouraged by
waakness in the Minneapolis market.
Temperatures in the northwest will be
closely watched over Sunday aa warmer
weather will no doubt cause apprehension.

Oats There was little independent

gram by the interests which have been
conducting the Herald, is announced
In a statement to be printed in the
Herald tomorrow.
The statement follows:
"The Bait Lake Herald, which has
been published in Salt Lake for more
than 50 years, will cease publication
after today. The conditions bringing
about the suspension were due to the
high cost of operating and the over
crowded field. There are few cities in
the country the size of Salt Lake that
support four newspapers.
"Coincident with this change the
Salt Lake Telegram announces pub
lication of a Sunday morning edition
beginning July 25. The controlling
interest in the Telegram Publishing
company has been purchased by A. L.
Fish, Thomas J. Mullin and associates.
Mr. Fish stated last night that no
radical change in the management of
the Telegram was contemplated. Both
Mr. Fish and Mr. Mullin are former
Pacific coast newspaper men, who
came to Salt Lake about January 1,
to take over the Herald.
"Mr. Fish, before coming to Salt
Lake, was business manager of the
Los Angeles1 Evening Express and for
10 years prior to that was business
manager of the Portland, Or., Jour
nal. Mr. Mullin, prior to coming to
Salt Lake, had been advertising man
ager of the Portland. Or., Journal."
