' - .: ; Hi',- "'-"':- , Option Trad Beam Tavorabl. ; A canvass cf the situation ahowa the board of trade committee on grain op Hon trading to'b generally favorable "to. the project. At the meeting of the f rain interests or the board or trade his evening It ' la therefore likely th'it '. a- favorable report will ,be made. Tho 'only question which cornea to the mind w now- tne project -should . o conaucrea. if 1 me renerai od n on tnst it voh o be Inadvisable to conduct grain option trading under the nreaent board of trade arrangement.- How to overcome thadtf- ; iloultles which surround the project ' will probably occasion still another committee. The membership of the Portland board of trade, while it takes In most of the grain men, la composed mostly of produce sellers and ship sera. The nominal membership fee has allowed all aorta of Interest to be- come memoera, ana - cms is ine proieci which the present option " committee seems unable to wrestle Arlth... Some interests are ofthe belief that a sep arate body composed of grain men. en tirely and associated with the' board of trad be organised and the : member ship fee. of thia body to be placed at a figure where the membership will be so vajuaoie mat tne rule or tne or ganisattoa can be atrlctly enforced. , Only Solution, Thinks Trad. t i According to the grain trad in sen eral, option trading Is the only solu tion f thei board of trade. Without oDUon the nowerof the board would be nominal indeed. The plea that op tion trading would Induce gambling 1 Deuevea 19 oe uiieny oui 01 uie ques tion In a market that would be con ducted here, for the opportunities to make or lose money would be too slow aa compared with the Chicago market that practically the -only business here would be on a cash basis. The tak ing in of options by the Portland board 01 iraae wouia mow, saya me iraae, a miller to know exactly at just what price he. could sell flour during cer tain month,- because he could purchase In advance' the wheat with which to frlnd It and have the grain delivered In Ime for grinding. It would likewise allow the bis- gratngrower to know in advance' exactly what his wheat would .be worth at the time or harvest, and l lit could sell several month ahead of FNtlma what atocks be believes he will be able to grow and deliver. Therefore, if the price is favorable from his view point before his crop Is ready, he can sell and.be sure of the price he 1 to receive. , . . ':,:'' Export Flour Order Kefuaed.

While some mill era are quoting export flour as high aa 13.70 per barrel, - sales are generally being made around 13.4 and 13.60. The rejected offers are around , 13.25 and 13.80 barrel.- While some mill- era were offerinsr export ' grades a low as these values a short time ago, the present price of wheat . is far too kih tn aitmlt of business at thia time.

For on - thing, it is argued that in western Oregon especially th farmer ar not able to keep their harvest hands sober, and as a result they lose large parts of their crops - because there Is no labor available to do the harvesting.

A farmer coming to town - drops into a saloon, takes a few unao oustomed drinks and winds up by frit tering away his time, spending - hi money- and otherwise celebrating his visit with remorse and decides to put temptation behind htm by voting to remove the temptation while at the f oils in - the rural district, free from he call of the Juice that. cheers. In smaller numbers it is estimated that the farmers voted dry because of Jealousy, they making that argument that If they hav to live In the out-of-the-way district - and do without their liquor they will fix it so the man of th city will not hav tha best of them. - - , - -- Whatever the solution of th ques tion may be It remains a faot that th. dry area of the state is increasing and th Prediction la now bains- made aven by the liquor dealer themselves that Oregon aa a whole will be added to the dry column within the next two years.
