These two messages wen facetted by this
paper la aaswer to toiegraphtg laoalrles as to
whether tbe report published Id a moraine paper
regarding a boycott against Oregoa bopa waa

All e( them spoke nry highly of tbe quality
( Oregoa bopa "tbe beat la ths world" being
tbe general deserlptloB of ths stocks grows la
this stata.
The hop trade ta general did sot evsn bear
of ths boycott rumor until It wae pabllahed la
ths morning paper. Tbe report waa given sat
- by a Tueooiu bop mas whs has beea trying (or
maay months ta bring ths market below 10c

same aews bad beea given this paper roily a

a regular bear argument, wnlch It sftsrwsrds
Hon Heps Bold ta Brswsrs,
The (act that dealers sold mora bales cf
Oregoa bops short thaa tnr thto year scores
salts eoaelaatraly that brewera did as dls
ertmlaats sgstnet ths product of thto stats.
In (set ths trade 'says that these very beery
sales ta brewers almost a year before the hops
wen grows proved yost the sppoelte or that
arewsts wen willing bay aiest of their
reqairemeats S year la adraoee, knowing that
ths duality woald always be that for which
tbe Oregoa bop has come ta be recognise.
Hop trading daring' the" per"week Wigvery'

At this rime It IB apparent to all that the
Btewan bold the key to tbe bop-prlrs situation.
They ban heavy eupplin ea hand and han

, they make further purrhaaes or aot at thto
time will In all probability be snswsred by the
prodocen tbemaelm. If they ara willing to
sail for a lealtlmate prli-s. coaalderlng all con-
. dltlons, ths brewers will any. If. oa tbe other'
. . band, they bold out for aa adraacs. then to
every prospect at thla ttme that ths brswsrs
will ant enter ths market on til compelled to.
Another thing tint will ban soaelderable bear
! lag spin the market value of bops will be tbe
prospects for ths coming crop lats aext spring.
A great deal depends apea that. If the rtp
