' reaohas With Dry o$.'f
Although not anxioua to admit the
fact, although they .have been badly
hurt themselves, the commission . and
fruit trade of Portland Is mourning' the
loss of soma 11.000 or M, 000 wtiicn win
be lost this season as a result of being
taken In. Moat of the Front etreet mer-
chanta. were very heavyi buyers of
southern Oregon neachea . this season.
and it now happens that most of this
stock was Infected with dry rot . ' In
only a few caaea did thia dry rot ma
terialise until the shipments had been
in maraec several aaye. juven tne nawa
era, who seldom are caught napping on
any kind of fruit have bit badly on the
peach proposition. Southern . Oregon
Seaches are today selling from 01.26
own to 40c a box. the latter for stock
mostly badly Infected with the rot For
fancy peaches there Is a most excellent
demand from all eldea. and as high aa
11. za a box is easily mttainea. . xneas
dry rot peaches, according to the trade,
are Just aa good for canning purposes
If ' canned before decay aets In. . For
this reason It la believed that most of
the stock will go to canning concern a
Creamery Batter Mora Uniform.
Almost every creamery In this city
is toaay asaing 100 a pound xor its
best product 'this being the price set
by the Heselwood company - Monday
morning. Buppuea or cream, wnne ae
creaslng quite rapidly, are np to the
requirements of the trada because at
the present values consumption Is like
wise decreasing. Several cars of east
ern butter are already on the way to this
city, but being bought at high values,
are not likely, to be aold at any ma
terial reduction from uia local rigura
This year tha competition of the eastern
product will not be so great aa In for
mer years, because under tha new our
foods law the label must state where
the butter la manufactured. Thua east
ern butter cannot hero bo aold as the
Oregon product '
. Egg aad Chickens Firmer ,
- There la a firmer tone In both the egg
and poultry market today. With the
decreasing supplies of local ranch aggs
tha market has been acting better for
some time, and prices along the street
are mucn mora uniform.
Country store butter Is vary slow la
arriving, and the prioe is steadily ad-
The strength shown In ths dressed
meat market continues to multiply.
Prices about unchanged. ,
- Cheese market continues mixed, but
the tone can be said to bo a trifle better
again. . ; -
Mop Bears Continue work,
- Effort are being made by soma hop
bear to. talk f very poor quality for
The Oregon hop thia season. This agi
tation Is being furthered by a morning
report, which not only saya the crop is
of poor quality, but talka of a very
heavy yield in order to causa ths grow
ers to sellvthelr yarda at a sacrifice.
The same Interests which used the
morning report to spread their bullish
news-last year so they could sell out
their cheaD-nrice contracts at a aood
price while the grower waa holding for
an advance, are now on tha other side
of the market and are Just as bear! ah as
they were bullish a year ago. Reliable
hoo dealers say there is nothing but
falsehood la the reports of big crops,
for, except In a few scattered sections
where cultivation waa carried on, the
prospects are not for so good a crop aa
a year ago. How last year's market
went is now a matter or history.

tory yesterday afternoon to get infor
mation about the handling of garbage, -and
plied tha crematory employes with. ,s

Devlin's defeat gave the schema a de
cldad setback, but Reed now hopes to
be able to get hla 26-year contract front
the council, despite the fact that Dr.
lane is mayor. .Reed said he could get -the
contract If tha nswsnaDera1 wnuM "
keep quiet about It - r.
Mayor Lane waa asked about tha mat- .
ter this morning and said ha had heard
about tha plan, but did not know It waa v
still alive. He .said ha believed it
would be a very unwise thing to do,
and that similar plans hsd been tried.
In other cities, notably Oakland, Call-
fornia, and hsd proved a decided detrU. ,
ment wherever tried. . -
Reed Is said to have entertained tha
hope that ha could secure the Indorse- ;
ment of the-Clvio Improvement luniA
and on tha strength of their recommen- '
dation to the council that bis schema
was a good one secure tha contract
Reed has already told soma of the di
