March The nrlnclpal Items of Interest In (be local markvia today are: Salmon season . close. . - t Smelt more plentiful. Many, changes In fiour. ... ' - Prune are spoiling. - ' ! Beaua are much higher. ' New firm on Front street. Eggs continue weak. Meaf situation very Arm. Butter shows mora weakness. Three can bananas arrive. -California steamer due tonight Little wheat Is sailing. The close season for salmon fishing In th state of Oregon began at midnight last night and will continue until April 16, The deaiera will be slven until about the end 'of the week to dispose of all their freah r stocks which an not large enough to last them more than perbapa one or two daya. Then all the salmon used In this market will be ot the coin-storage variety. Fishermen ot this city every, year pro test against the close aeaaon, as they say that It la placed at the wrong time, of the year to accomplish It principal purpose the protection of the lalmou during the breeding season, Fishermen her all agree that the salmon does not (Dawn until ahiut the latter part of Sep tember or the first of October and the cloalng of the season at thta time is a direct loss to the state. When the season slosei In this state the fleh men order their supplies from the Sacramento river ia California, which Hate doe not believe In the close season as does Oregon. A large smount ot money Is thereby sent from Orexon into that atate annually for salmon which could Juat as easily be paid to local flahermen without affecting the salmon lnduatry a particle. "We thluk li a shame," says Malarkey ft Co., "to close Ue lesson for almon fishing just at the time when the flab ta in the moat demand. - This cloae season la all farce. Inasmuch aa It tails to accomplish the purpose Intended. Salmon do not apawn at this time and the atate make lawa mat send Urge imount ot money into California each year by forcing ua to buy salmon mere. t ' Xanr Change la Flour, Al ha been predicted by The Journal during the past week, all the local mill men today tell la line iu the matter of a flour advance. Today the Portland 'Flouring' Mill company announced an advance of 15c per barrel on all gradea, eastern Oregon patenta, stralghta and valley grades. The Dour market is stiu nrm at the new lists. There la at the present time no inquiry from the orient for Hour and tew shipment an therefore reported. Mil Feeds Are Firm. Mill product are firm at the advance ex cluslvely reported In The Journal yesterday Oats, bran and aborts are firm with the market showing a rlalna tendency. During the past few daya the Chleago market has declined about 7c per bushel on wheat and this baa caused a lull in operations in this market. Liverpool ia now showing the effect of the slump In the American murketa by decline' In values today. Those farmen and warehouse men who were going to ship their wheat Into the eastern, markets rrhen the price went up several .more cents are now feeling rather blue and ire very likely to make' often to the mlllm It the price ihould go any lower in the east. No change were made In valuea in this market today. Prunes Are Spoiling. Just what Is the matter with tbli yeir'i Or gon prune cannot be told to a certainty, but that there la eometblng wrong li acknowledged by all prune bapdlera of tbli city.. J'be ,clalin is made that dealer! are'very arfiious to sell at 194c baals, but very little business is being placed. The longer the delay In the coming of the orden the more anxloua the prune holders become and the mon willing they are to take any figure which la offered them. Ibe foe that the Oregon prune season does not carry well 1 the strongest reason lor tne laca or oiden. L'nleaa the shipment! go Into Immedl ate consumption. It entail Ions on the hold ere. A California fruit grower In speaking of the matter aayi: "California prunus msy be put In cold itorsge on the advent of warm weather, and they keep perfectly for an in definite period. Oregon prune will not keep in the heat, and they will not keep In cold s tonga. they begin to mold altnoat immedl, a teli. Orecon holder! Inform their agent! that owing to wet weather the prune! ire a polling on their bind In the bin ana are urging mem to sell at almost any price to move the fruit. Beans Are Higher. The ahortagi In the bean crop during the last season and the large demand for thle claassof stocks by the various governments fur the us of their troop! In the neld has caused a num bet of abarp advance In the entire bean mar ket during - the past aeaaon and the market shows every indication of doing further atuuts, Today the market on nearly all gradea shows an advance of about 26c per hundred pounds, Hew Firm oa Front Street. The principal topic ot convenatlon along Front street today waa tbe opening up for bust neaa of the new commlHSiun firm of Dryer, O'Malley A Co. Tbe nrm is coinpoaed of W H. Dryer, tbe veteran potato buyer and ablp ner. Toner O'Malley. for many yean connected with Page A Sou and late of Wolf ft Boh, and Walter Bollen, late of Page A Son. Eggi Continue Weak. The ecg market is still on tbe weak Hat with the receipt somewhat larger than the demand. There la some selling but ill purchases are at low figures. The sound and Alaska are doing a little buying. Meat Situation Very Firm The enttro meat market is firm with the receipts especially' or. hog Inadequate to fill the demand. The arrival of veal have been larger this week, but tbe market Is still In gooa couutuoo, ' suiter a weaaer. Everything In the butter line Is wesker on account of the large receipt of local and Cali fornia stocki. The latter grade ta still being quoted lower thin the Qregou stocks. A furthei diop la price li not cooiiaerea ununeiy. Merchants' Opinion oa the Markets. W. B. Glsfke company car bananas wa unloaded today; California steamer due to, niirht. W. T. Turner ft Co.

The "Eastern Oregon Mining Country" sgency of Tbe Oregon Dally Journal Is located at Sumpter, H. W. Donahue agent and correspondent, by whom subscriptions by mall or carrier will be received, aa well ai orden for advertlalng. THE DIXIE MEADOWS A VERY BIG MINE '-- (Journal Special Service.) Sumpter, Or., March . Arthur B. Browne, the Sumpter mining engineer, returned a few days ago from the Quartzburg district where he made an examination of the Dixie Meadows mine. Mr. Browne says that he was agreeable surprised at the magnitude of this property. The mine, he says, as a whole presents one of the most inter esting developments of the district. With less than 2,000 "feet of work, at least three years' ore supply for a 100- ton mill has been developed in a single shoot, a record seldom" equaled In any section. The ledge, he 'says. Is unques tlonably one of the strongest fissure veins in eastern Oregon. The filling Is typical of the great slate areas of the district, which Is a breccia of slate enclosed and partly replaced by quart. Accompanying the Assure are the. rem nants of an ingenious Intrusion com monly termed porphyry by the miners. This porphyrltlc material has been sub ject to replacement to such an extent aa to be whqlly absent throughout consid erable areas while in others it is still quite marked. The property Is equipped with a 100 ton concentrating plant, sawmill, etc. The system employed is that of wet crushing by rolls. The ore passes a gyratory breaker, roll Jaw crusher and two sets of rolls with Intermediate screen slaing. The pulp passes over amalgam copper plates and then on to new standard concentrators.- The mill Is operated by steam power, a .separate en gine being used for the concentrators. The present practice Is that of crush ing to 16-mesh and the separation of the concentrates Into two grades, the higher grade being shipped, while the second grade Is retained for local reduction. Only a small percentage of the value IS: recovered on the plates, but as the aver-' age tailings are said to contain about 90 cents per ton the free gold which es capes from the plates must be saved with great efficiency by the concentra tors. Mr. Browne says that the observer Is tempted to question the economic effici ency of certain details of the present mill practice, but tho atmosphere of conservative good management which surrounds this property produces con fidence that all such faults will be promptly, detected and the proper modi fications adopted. Good Progress at May Qun. Superintendent Young of the May Queen mine In tho Red Boy district wns In the city yesterday and says that work at the mine Is progressing as usual, the main drift now being very close to the vein, which Is to be cross cut on that level. When the vein' has boon opined it will be sunk on until it dips into the parallel proven on the sur face lust fall by shaft work. New York-Oregon Company. O. C. Wright, general manager . of the New York-Oregon company, operating the Black Butte, Blue Bird, Buck Horn nml the Blue Mountain group which ad joins the Buck Horn and which was just recently acquired by the- company, nayst that he has a crew on full duty at this property and Is making excellent development progress.
