HOP DEMAND GOOD
IN LOCAL MARKET
Number of Sales Recorded in
Different Sections.
OREGON CROP FAIR ONE
Keporte From Continent Indicate
4 Tliat Hop Crop there Damaged
by Continued Drought.
A rood demand for last year's hops has
developed in the northwest during1 the
past few daysand has resulted in a num
ber of Bales Deiug recorded In different
sections of the country. Prices have not
advanced altnoufcn dealers Say the con
dition is what might he called & "good
market."
The activity here Is believed to be
largely due to the unfavorable reports
from the continent where a shorter crop
than last year Is Indicated.
--ales for the last year's hops made in
his section during; the past few days
hav been at prices ranging from 11 to
33 cents. Sales recorded include: The
Herman Schmidt lot of 133 bales at Ore
eon City, the Fred Ewart lot of 63 bales
at Silverton and the Shaner lot of 53
bales at Marquam. Several other lots
were said to have been moving in the
irslley.
Among the sales in western "Washing
ton were 06 bales belonging to E. Lap
pen bush of Buckley and 41 bales belong
ing to Mrs. Jackson at Alderton. In the
Takima district the Campbell lot of
bales was sold at Toppenish and the Jack
LaChante lot of 31 bales was sold at
Moxee.
There was said to haYe been prac
tically no deals reported for the new
crop. Much of the now crop has al
ready been contracted. In cases where
th crop has not been signed up, how
ever, there is something of a tendency
on the part of growers and buyers to see
What the market will develop.
The present weather conditions are de
clared to be favorable for the growth
of a first-class quality of hops In Ore
gon. It Is not, however, favorable for
the development of a big crop. Present
estimates are that the crop will be about
60.000 bales, which Is the same as last
year. The Washington crop Is estimated
at 30,000 bales and California at 85,000
bales and that of New York at 50.000.
tispatchea received by wire from Eng
land by local hop dealers last week esti
mated the English hop crop at from
200. 0O0 to 250. 0O0 hundredweight and de
clared that the continental crop would be
a medium one. The hop crop was said to
have suffered to some extent from the
drought.
There Is not much hops In first hands
on the coast now. Estimates of local
dealers place the number of bales In first
bands at 1G.00 for California, 3500 for
Oregon and ltmo for "Washington. Conse
quently this will not have any great ef
lect on the market.
Dealers declare that everything is fav
orable for the western grower receiving
a good price for his hops provided the
rate of exchange does not prove, too
Kreat a factor. Since England is the
great purchaser for American hops at
the present time, the rate of exchange
will naturally have a great deal to do
with the price which th English pur
Chasers can afford to give.
Advices from New York are that the
bop market there is also exhibiting a
better demand. The quotations on Pa
cific coast hops carried by .New York
Commercial journals follow ;
1020 prim to choice, 22 to 25 cents;
tt020 medium to prime, 20 to 22 cents;
15 to 17 cents; and old olds, 14
to 15 cents.
The New York Journal of Commerce
ls&s to say of the market condition there:
Tho better demand noticeable during
the past few days continues and a mod
or ate volume of business is being trans
acted in IflilOs as well as In contracts
or the 191 crop. Prospects for tn new
crop on th continent of Europe are
Dior or less unfavorable with indications
rvf a shorter crop than last year and in
consequence prices ther for 1920s have
recently been advancing.
WHEAT PRICES DEVELOP DECLINE
Jrrop Affects All Grades Tilth Exception
; of Bed Walla.
A general decline in wheat prices de
!oped at the local exchange yesterday,
tn this respect reflecting the drop in
wheat quotations at the Chicago market.
This docLine was true locally with the
xception of the case of red Walla,
whUh re-corded a geiuM-al advance, both
tor spot and August and September de
Jrvery. The decline registered on other Tarie
fcies ranged from 1 cent for whit club
to 2 cents for haxd white and soft white
and 3 cents for hard winter for spot de
rive ry.
Doclinea for August and September de
livery were not so noticeable and in, no
tnetance more than 1 cent a bushel.
Reports received by the Merchants ex
change yesterday from Carlyle, Saskatch
ewan, said:
"From Brandon southwest to the Sas
katchewan line crops are badly damaged
by drouth and heat. Some fields are ex
pected to be a failure. Some wheat Is
toeing harvested."

BITTER MARKET REMAINS STEADY
Cream Receipts Continue to Decrease and
Qua lity IS Poorer.
Th butter market remains steady with
a good demand for the better stocks and
a sluggish one for the second-rate goods.
according to creamerymen who announced
yesterday they did not anticipate any
change over the week-end.
The receipts of cream continue to de
crease and there is 'also a steady drop
ping off tn quality. The result has been
a greater quantity of undergrade, butter
and a greater scarcity of the better stock.
Th cheese market remains firm at re
cent advances.

KEW YORK, July 23. Stock were firm
to strong almost from the outset of to
day's brief session. The floating supply
was scarce and shorta experienced some
difficulty in covering week-end commit
ments. Rails led on over-night announcement
that the administration contemplates early
settlement of financial balances. Junior
rails as well as investment issues were in
demand at fair gains.
Foreign oils rallied from recent heaviness
and steels, equipments, rubbers and sugars,
especially the Cuban group, shared ma
terially In the rise, most leaders closing at
best quotations. Sales amounted to 200.
000 shares.
International quotations concluded their
recent moderate recoveries. Sterling de
mand bills at $3.57 established & new
minimum for the current movement. Ir
regular reactions were registered by all
continental remittances, the German rate
again being unresponsive to recent credit
extensions in this market.
Liberty bonds closed at mixed changes,
but the general bond list, notably specula

war' flotations, augmented gains of the
last few days. Total Bates, par value.

Notwithstanding an unusually dull week
in the stock market, actual loans and dis
counts of clearing house banks showed
only a nominal decrease. Cash holdings
decreased by almost $7,000,000, leaving ex
cess reserves at about $6,300,000 as against
$48,000,000 a few weeks ago.

DEPARTMENT CHANGES STANDARD
Perforations In Screens for Testing1 Shelled
9 Corn Fixed.
WASHINGTON, D. C. July 23. An
nouncement of a change In the official
grain standards of the United States for
shelled corn was made at the United
States department of agriculture here to
day. Under an order signed by Secretary
W allace, effective October 3. 1021. the
size of the perforations In the screens
used for determining foreign material and
cracked corn is fixed at 12-64 of an inch
instead of 14-64 of an inch as at present.
Action was tax en alter a thorough in
vestigation of numerous complaints made
to tne department by merchandisers of
shelled corn that the larger holes per
mitted a considerable percentage of small
whole kernels and fair-sized pieces of
broken kernels of corn, which are entirely
suitable for milling and feeding purposes.
to pass tnrougn tne sieve and be classi
fied as foreign material and cracked corn.
The result was a lowering of grade. This
was especially true or kiln-dried corn,
which fractures easily in handling. Of
ficials believe that the smaller perfora
tion will overcome these objections and
meet the approval of the trade.
The date set for the change to become
effective is before the bulk of the next
corn crop starts to move en its way to
the markets.

WHEAT UNDERGOES DROP
MARKET HAS SETBACK OWDfG
TO URGE RECEIPTS.
Visible Supply Statement Monday
Expected to Be Bearish.
Close Is Ixw Point.
CHICAGO, Jnly 23. Wheat underwent
a material setback today owing chiefly to
large receipts and prospects tha the bur
den would be still heavier on Monday.
The market closed weak. 2ts to 8c net
lower, with September $ 1 22 o 1 22 and
December $1.25 1 25 4. Corn lost A4c
to He and oats 4Sc to c. In pro
visions, the finish was unchanged to 52c
lower.
General selling forced the wheat market
down grade from the beginning. Atten
tion focused almost entirely on knowledge
that the four principal winter wheat mar
kets had received more than 000 cars and
that - there was no sign of a let-up over
Sunday. Talk of possible railroad em
bargoes was again a factor. In addition
the visible supply statement Monday was
expected to be bearish. and favorable
weather was reported from the spring crop
region. The close was In some caaea at the
bottom point for the week.
Dry weather complaints caused corn to
respond in only a limited way to the bear
ish influence of wheat. Meagerness of
threshing yields tended to restrict the de
cline of oats.
Provisions were depressed by the weak
ness of hogs and grain,'
The Chicago grain letter, received yes
terday by the Overbeck & Cooke company
of Portland, follows:
Chicago, July 23. Wheat The big re
ceipts, around 2100 cars, at the four lead
western and southwestern points, with
general evening up on the part of local
longs for the week end, led to liquidation
and lower range, but on the break there
was free buying by houses with seaboard
connections to remove hedges against
sales for export and the inside figure
were not maintained.
Export sales at the gulf were reported
as high as 1,000,000 bushels, and while the
movement from farms 1 very heavy, the
export business ts also large and it Is said
to continue, aa Europe needs liberal quan
tity of grain.
There are already signs of a. let-up
wiimn a snort time in parts of the south
west, as the break In prices is causing a
holding tendency . and the car shortage is
Increasing with Nebraska and Missouri
now complaining.
Kor time being bulges may not hold, due
to hedging pressure but sooner or later
the market will turn and purchases on
eharp breaks are preferred
Corn Dry weather talk is coming from
a widr territory and unless rains come
shortly the market should have a higher
tendency.
Forecast over Sunday indicated con
tinued dry and warm. The crop is In a
critical position and very susceptible to
adverse conditions. The market is show
ing stubborn resistance to selling pressure
and acts somewhat oversold.
No material decline below 60 cents Is
anticipated.
Export demand continues brisk and a
good reduction in local stocks is expected
to be shown in the visible supply Monday.
Oats Trade was not large and many
of the local longs were disposed to sell on
account of the disappointing action of the
market.
Threshing returns from Tow today sog
geeted average yield of 20 to SO bushels
per acre, with a test weight of 21 to 2S
pounds.
The crop will probably prove smaller
than the trade in general realize.
Rye Business in other pits relieved to
an extent the congestion in the July de
livery of rye, but it held close to yester
day's closing price; cash trade dull; esti
mated receipt. 35 cans.

WHEAT VALUES AEE PCIXED DOWN
Biff Receipts Prove Factor In Lower Prices
svt Chicago.
CHICAGO, July 23. Bis receipts to
gether with indications that the movement
from rural sources would remain heavy
for some time have pulled down values in
the wheat market this week. Prices this
morning: compared with a week ago
showed a fall of 6 to 9 cents a bushel.
Corn was c oft to c up. oats unchanged
to c lower, and provisions varying
from 35c declfne to 10c advance.
With arrivals of wheat in Chicago on one
day totaling 1230 cars and with similar
conditions at St. Louis and Kansas City,
bears had an advantage that was hard to
meet, especially as signs . pointed to a
larger yield in Kansas and Oklahoma than
official estimates had given reason to ex
pect. Besides, cooler temperatures pre
vailing tended to allay fears of increased
damage to the spring sown crop, and there
was question at times as to whether in
view ' of storage congestion here railroad
embargoes against grain shipments to
Chicago usuld be entirely established. On
the other hand, export business, the volume
of which was diffioult to gauge, led to
frequent rallies in this connection. It was
urged that vhereas Europe this season
would apparently require more wheat than
last year the United States could not spare
so much, and that the tariff made Cana
dian imports unlikely.
Liberal shipments from here, together
with some dry weather complaints, steadied
the corn market. Oats were eased a little
by movement of the new crop.
German buying of lard strengthened that
commodi ty, but meats averaged lower in
the absence of any special demand.

ROAD WORK IS AT ISSUE
Clatsop Funds Short and Confer
ence on Matter Is 4ZaIIed.
ASTORIA. Or. July 23. (Special.)
A meeting of the county advisory
board and members or the county
court will be held in the courthouse
at 1 o'clock Wednesday afternoon to
determine definitely whether all
Clatsop- county highway improvement
work now in progress shall be
stopped.
The failure of many to pay taxes
promptly has resulted in all the
money in the special road funds be
ing1 exhausted and warrants against
the general funds must be drawn to
pa:- for any road work that is done
before the second halves of taxes
come in next October. It is said that
bx the end of July about $40,000 in
those warrants will have been issued.
At the coming session, detailed re
ports of the condition of 'he -several
special funds will be submitted as
well as an opinion from District At
torney Erickson as to the legal au
thority of the county to issue gen
eral fund warrants in excess of the
appropriations to pay for road im
provement work.

IEN"DI,ETCr, Or, July 23. (Spe
cial.) To provide for direct eelling
of hay to consumers, directors and
managers of the Oregon and Wash
ington hay growers associations met
here this afternoon and formulated
a joint sales agency to consist of two
directors from each association and
a sales manager to be elected by the
agency. All sales of the 100,000 tons
of hay - under contract by the two
bodies will be disposed of through

The joint agency was formed to
prevent possible friction or competi
tion between producers in the two
elates, to provide for equal distribu
tion in sales to both organizations
and to eliminate waste in selling
through intermediate dealers.
