Closing of Season on Rogue
River Causes Lack of
Supplies Here.
Portland wholeeal market i:
Salmon trade la famished.
Butter market very firm.
Aprlcota coming; from The Dalle.
Tomato market cleans up.
Price maintained In egg.
Ena; plant In liberal supply.
Frulf Jar a scarce article.
Produce trade Is very heavy.
Salmon Trad Zi Famished.
The closing of the salmon season
along the Rogue river on August 1 has
caused a famine in supplies of fresh
salmon In this market. An long as the
Rogue river season was pm the local
fish trade was able to secure close to
it requirements, but since the flHhlng
Is no longer permitted In that stream
the trade Is forced to depend upon the
Inadequate supplies of the Columbia.
Disappointment Is more keen over the
small run or nun in tne latter river
FARM WORK CHECKS
ARRIVALS OF SPUDS
Oregon potatoes are not yet
sufficiently matured for long
distance shipping, and as a re
sult the local trade has to be
depended upon to take ear of
all arrivals. Had this been any
other part of the season this
might prove disastrous to prices,
but the press of farm work Is
holding the attention of grower
at this time, and thi. coupled
w)th th shortage of labor In the
country Is holding th supplies
In check. At this time demand
la fully up to receipts, and price
are being maintained at old fig
urea for best quality.

thl season. Fishers are receiving sum
small catches that many of them have
quit th business for the year. Salmon
canners and cold storage operators arc
fighting among themselves for the
small supplies and between the two take
all the fish caught and leave none for
tne rresh. trade.
Trult jars a Boaro Artlole.
Handler of fruit Jar are still mak
ing much complaint over the Inability
of manufacturers to ship them supplies
enough to last them more than half
the iime. Every Jar manufacturer Is up
to his head in order, and every day
add to the volume of unfilled ones.
The reason for th scarcity of jar Is
given by the manufacturers as the
scarcity of labor and the shortage In
packing cases. Several makers of Jar
nave promised their local handlerj that
additional supplies cannot be delivered
for fully a month, and by that time the
cream of the fruit jar trade will have
passed.
Batter Xaxket Is Tery Finn.
Almost all city creameries are today
quoting the advance of 2 He a pound
announced by several manufacturers
yesterday. Only two butter house are
not charging the advanced figure so
far as known, and it 1 atated that these
are asking th rise from those not reg
ular customers.
Cream receipts show a very good vol
ume, but butter manufacturers are only
able to take care of their current de
mand. Yesterday afternoon after the
advance Id price was made, the orders
came thicker than before the rise. Out
side demand is enormous for this time
of year, and while city trade Is not at
ail heavy, it is up to tne usual can at
this period of the season.
Ice cream manufacturers deny that
their operations make much difference
with the butter market. They claim
that the cream thev use Is not of suffi
cient volume to greatly affect the but
ter market or price one way or the
other.
Produce Trade Tery Beery.
Trade In th produce market Is very
heavy today along Front street. All
lines are affected. Fruit business is
the largest ever seen in this market.
Apricots are again coming from The
Dalles and are selling around $1.60 a
crate. Blackberries are arriving more
freely again, with the market fair at
11.50. Some small lots of raspberries
fame this morning rrom local points.
and sold at lvc per one-pound box.
Crawford peaches are now arriving
from local points, and are in better
condition. Best generally around 31.25.
Tomato market clean up again. Sup
plies are not near as liberal a a short
time ago, and good stock sells at 60c a
box. Some fancy at 76c. California
stuff In bad shape.
Muscat grapes are arriving more
freely from the south, and the price Is
lower.
Brief Botes of the Trade.
Egg plant 1 In more liberal supply
from The Dalle. Price at $3 a crate
or about 10c a pound.
Price on eggs is being maintained at
rormer ilgure. Receipts not so heavy,
and for outside shipments some ad
vance Is generally asked.
Chicken market is quiet, but fairly
steady at rormer ngures.
No late sales reported in hop market.
Dealers say no orders are In sight.
By the purchasing of the Interest of
Oeorge w. Sherk in the rtrm of Sherk
& Graham Co. by Frank Templeton of
Templeton Brothers, the name of the
latter firm will be changed to Temple
ton & Oraham. The firm of Templeton
Brothers will be absorbed by the new
concern. Oeorge W. Sherk retires from
the business on account of having more
business on the outside. The quarters
formerly occupied by Sherk & Oraham
Co. will be taken by the new firm. Both
members are well known In the pro

The small arrivals of hogs forced the
market up 26c today and best stuff Is
quoted firmer at $6.76. The Inability
of packers to get in supplies from the
east Is working a severe hardship on
them because of late local arrivals nave
been almost too small to note. The gen-
enal absence of arrivals has caused the
shutting down of the hog-packlng plants
and even the retailers experience con
siderable difficulty In obtaining a suf
ficient supply to tide them over. As
during the past 24 hours there were no
hog arrivals In the yards last Tuesday.
Both a year and two year ago th run
was nominal.
Better Tim In Steer,
In the cattle market a better time
was reflected tpday on account of the
small run. Arrivals for the 24 hours
wore just 76 head, half of the run of a
week ago. A year ago 294 head came
and two years ago 140 head. While (he
general cattle market Is unhinged from
previous price rulings, a fractional
advance over listed figures Is some
times obtained for quality out of the
ordinary.
Steady Ton In Sheep.
While values are unchanged In the
f general sheep trade today, the market
s steadier and the trade has been able
to maintain prices more easily. Today's
run was 250 head, compared with nojie
either a week ago or a year ago and 450
head two years ago.
A year ago today the market was
showing a fractionally improved tone i
ror cattle, especially steers. Hogs and
sneep were steady, values unchanged

ing the recent hot weather, and
that unless unfavorable condl-
prevail during the next two
4 weeks Nei Perce and Idaho
4 counties will harvest the great-
4 est grain crop In their history.
4 Up to this time the farmers
4 have refused to contract their
4 crop, holding for a higher price,
4 which they believe will prevail
4 later In the season. The corapa-
4 nles are offering 68 cents for
4 bluestem and 66c for club, while
d brewing barley la quoted at 87 H

4 Farmer say that they will sell

The local wheat situation remains
rather quiet. In the interior there has
been considerable competition among
millers to get early supplies and the
result has been that the price Is gen
erally a fraction above the place it
started at. Along the line of the Great
Northern the prices paid average 74c
for bluestem. Some millers report
heavy purchases.
Most of the sales thus far have been
to the smaller millers who were caught
short last season and were forced to
pay high values latter to f.ll their flour
orders.

that he did not carry passengers after
6 o'clock in the evening. They were
forced to return to White Salmon, and
there they went to a hotel. Shortly
after thlr arrival the parents of both
nupenren on tne scene, ana after ex

it is stated that neither of them Is of
age. The young elopers left on the

North Yakima, Wash., Aug. 8. Hop
growers in this section are greatly dis
couraged over prospects for good prices
this fall. Although the yield here will
brti at least 1,000 bales short, the mar
ket In the United States Is already
pretty well supplied and Indications
point to an enormous yield In England,
a large part of which comes to this
country. In consequence growers here
do not think they will receive 10 cents
per pound for their crops and as a re
sult many hopyards next year will be,
converted into rruit ranches and the
production of crops more profitable.
