Dollar Batter Drawing Wear. Dollar butter for this year was pre dicted by The Journal early in the sea son because it wi.s found that the creameries were selling their full product In the flush season with no difficulty and thla k-pt storage opera tions on a small scale, wnile eastern butter is being received in this market. the values it Is offered at are only a fraction under the price of the local product because the supplies are handled by the creameries themselves who would scarcely care to ruin the sale of their own product by cutting values. In any event eastern butter is much higher than usual at this time of the season and some record-breaking figures are expected all over the country thia win ter. Eggs Are rirm Bat Unchanged. Egg market is Arm but unchanged In values. Along Front street the trade is securing 26c for best stocks, thla being the top of the market except for some thing fully guaranteed, which always brings a premium over regular quota tions. Eastern eggs are getting a firmer foothold he-e because of the small supply of local stock and sales of tne former are being mane at tne same price as the latter for best quality Cheese market is firmer as a result of the smaller supplies and the slight offerings by Tillamook makers. Along the street the prlco of Hats Is firm at 16016!4c with most sales at the latter figure. .Eastern cheese will begin to ar rive In this market the latter part of the week. The T. B. Townsend company has a car due to arrive aoout Saturday which will be quoted at liWCliHc. Chicken market is Just about holding former values witn tne tone rattier dull, but no accumulation of supplies as yet Brief Note of the Trade. Tomato market is about 10c lower with larger supplies. Demand all right at new price Peach market holding steady. Ordi nary run of llrst-class stock selling around tblffbbc, while some extra fancies which do not come freely sell a frac tion higher. Sweet potatoes are quoted down to 4c a pound with larger supplies. Quality fine. North is buying Oregon potatoes as fa fit as they are offered at prevailing figures. Bell peppers are in larger supply from local points and the price is lower. Boxes ranging around 60 60c a box. Some fine specimens of cauliflower were received this morning from Clackamas by Davenport Bros. Sisal and standard Manila rope down c and pure Manila down Vic a pound. Mushrooms have made their appear ance In the markets and are quoted at 40c a pound. Watermelons are very firm. California stock scarce on account of the lack of communication by wire.

BIG SURPRISE If All Arc Picked Production Will Reach -a Record Breaking: Figure. Bv Hyman H. Cohen. Oregon will thla year produoa the largest crop of hope in Its history. Close to 170.000 bales will be produced, but whether more than 126.000 bales will be gathered for market Is the mystery, ami only the future will be able to safely forecast. Most wonderful progress has been made by the hop crop in Oregon the past month or six weeks. Up to that time the cron wis thin. unhealthy-lookln and very backward in its Rrowth. All of this has been rhunnil however, within less than two months. up on the west side the Improvement s much more marked than nlwhr At North Yamhill the yards an homiH. ful to look at. on the 100-acre yard of Paul Weld- ner at North Yamhill the conditions may be said to be shout iha mn rw.- fect in the state.
