PAGE EIGHT, THE MORNING ASTORIAN, SATURDAY, APRIL 30, 1904. f ; t. M M I A LT is the osf Impbrtan In buying food-products, several things are to be thought of i. e., Economy, Results, Easy Handling, Reliability, but the most important is Health. Health means everything. In buying clothes, shoes, hats, furniture, etc, if the buyer is deceived and gets an imitation the only harm is loss of money. In buy ing food-products, if imitations are sup- hed, there is not only a loss or money, ut perhaps an injury to health which is beyond price.

A number of finan ciers are now here. One of the most prominent said that the Russian loan probably would be made before long at 5 per cent for three years, the bonds selling at between 97 and 93. The total amount is understood to be between $150,000,000 and $175,000,000. It is not expected that any of the bonds will be placed In the United States. A THOUGHTFUL MAN. M. M. Austin, of Winchester, Ind., knew what to do in the hour of need. His wife had such an unusual case of stomach and liver trouble, physicians could not help her. He thought of and tried Dr. King's New Life PiUs and she got relief at once and was finally cured. Only 25c at Charles Rogers' dru store. STEAMER SUE H.

PACKERS FIX THEIR PRICES Quotations on Coming Season's , Salmon Pack Named by Astoria Canncrymen. , LEGITIMATE PROFIT CERTAIN For First Time Iu History of In dustry Solid Froiit In Presen ted by tliA Packers, All Standing Together. The salmon packers of the Columbia river yesterday fixed the prices of the canned product for the 1904 season. The quotations made are decidedly In advance of those at which the market closed last year, and at the figures decided upon the canners will be In position to make reasonable profit..' The price agreed upon yesterday are as follows: One-pound tails 11.45 a dosen. Two-pound flats J1.B5 a dosen. Half-pounds 90 cents a dozen. . Two-pound nomlnals $3.35 a dozen. One-pound ovals $5.20 a dosen. Halt-pound ovals $1.55 a dosen. An, extra charge of 5 cents a dosen was decided upon for key cans of all sloes. The prices announced yesterday are 10 cents In advance of last season's figures except for halves, which are held this year at an advance of 5 cents. The prices named will be quoted by all the packers of the Columbia river, who have hertofore failed to properly look after their Interests In the matter of opening quotations. "At the prices named for this sea son's pack, canners ought to be able to moke legitimate profit," said a well known packer yesterday to a represen. t&tive of The Astorlan. "Last season was anything but profitable for the packers. Nearly all of them disposed of their goods at an early date, and when the market grew stronger and there was good demand for salmon at higher prices stocks wer exhausted. The broker made all the money and the packers who came out even played in luck. 'This season's quotations are quite reasonable and In keeping with merket conditions. There Is not now a can of Columbia river salmon to be had any where. The cost of packing Is now much greater than was formerly the case, because of the Increased price of tin and lead and the advance in the wages of cannery operatives. . The quotations named this year ought to prove satisfactory all around, a rati will doubtless do so." Every packer on the river haa made the same prices, and for the first time in the history of the Industry will pre sent a solid front to the army of spec ulators who handle the choicest fish product In the world. F. M. Warren was the first of the packers to name prices, and his quotations were satis factory to the other canners with the single exception of the quotation for halves, that made being 6 cents below Warren's figures. blades' of grass grow where only one grew before takes to himself one fourth of the Increased product and lets the three-fourths go to society, society gets a very good bargain. No body will say thut the man whose ability has thus enriched society Is not entitled to a fair return for himself, Mr. Qasre cited several Instances of his Idea and continued: "There Is a blind Idea that If a man has money he must have taken It from somebody who had It before hi in, that there is a fixed amount of wealth which Is be ing handed around. That Is nut so at all. New wealth Is being produced all the time. The men who have accom plished the great things are the most poorly paid, no matter how wealthy they may be. So we come to the ques tion. Is great Individual wealth an Injury to society, Is It robbery, is it the exploitation of the poor? I affirm that it is not."

It is only necessary to take a trip through the surrounding country from this place to be convinced of the prosper ous condition of "old Polk." For many years the prospects for a heavy fruit crop have not been better. Fruit growers report that the frost of a few days ago has done little, If any, harm. The late spring, with the cold rains, has kept the fruit back, until now the trees are laden with blossoms. Though the cherry blossoms in many orchards have been destroyed by a little brown bird, there yet remains etrough for a good crop. More attention will be paid to the growing of small fruit than In the past. New fields of strawberries are to be put out. Hod work Is now at Its height. Ow ing to the continuous rain, the hop yards are getting away from the grow ers and the cultivating cannot be done fast enough. Owing to the rapid growth of the vines, they require a great amount of cultivation and work. There has been a great demand for labor at good wages, and many farm ers fear they will not be able to get their ground plowed and their crops put in before It will be too late. Farm ers are having difficulty In getting la bor to handle the work. As the hop work and farming come at the same time, it Is difficult for the farmers and hopmen to find men and teams enough to do the work. Some 600 or 600 men are required to work the hop yards In this vicinity. Many families spend weeks in the spring In the chlttlm fields, and this year the country is be ing scoured for this product. High prices have been paid for this product the past two years, and every avail able tree will be robbed of Its bark, j Eastern Immigrants who have come here find an abundance of work to do, at good wages, and are enabled to spend the season or a year here mak ing wages and seeing; for theniselves the ways of farming, the products of the valley, etc, and to know and ap preciate the advantages of the climate.
