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 there Is only a small amount
nf business available Jn the export flour
market, a. Urge, per,cent of the of fen
ingS nave Deen rtimra uvcausn 01 un
7iafartorv orleea. 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.
Considering the height of tha wheat
market at the moment the trade be-

of 25o since, yesterday and 60a since
the first of the week.
The hog market Is not acting any too
well at this time and quotations are
somewhat hard to maintain In the yards
because of th great pressure brought
to bear by packers. , Best stun is sun
moving In the yards around $6 and
$6.86. China fata are In much smaller
demand and for these prices are
ruling with today value between
36 and 16 60. There la no call at. all
just now for atockers and feeders and
no quotation ar therefor given in
those lines. ' :---

"LADY ROSE" PRESENTS PUPILS
- IN A RECITAL AT HER HOME
By O. L W.
A delightful gathering was that last
night at Miss Rose Eytlnge' apart
ments at 544 Flanders street Miss
Etyng presented several of her pupils
at a reading and contributed most de
lightfully herself to the program.
I should like to . have seen Miss
Eytlnge tn the days of her youth when
she was one of the stage favorites play
ing with the greatest stars of the day.
But she has surely lost nothing with
the years. Her grace and charm of
manner, her beautitf ul voice capable of
portraying all the emotions Of the hu
man soul, her expression ful eyes, her
strong, firm mouth, her gentle coquetry,
all speak of that charm which made her
the youthful Idol of theatre-goers years
ago and make her -the continued Idol
now of the friends who are fortunate
enough to know her. And she, with the
most gracious manner, - receives It
simply as her Just due. Tea Lady Rose

FARMERS SOLID
Vote in the Kural Districts
Shows Strong Preference;
for Prohibition.
' Farmer In many counties throughout
th stat are happy now because th
counties In which they 11 v hav been
added to tha dry column, and no liquor
can be legally sold there as soon as the
result of the local option vote can be
put Into effect On the other side there
are many people In th citle who ar
mourning because the farmers hav
their cause for rejoicing. 5 '
Results of th laat election show that
throughout th stat wherever there
was a contest between tha wet and dry -forces,
almost without fall th vot in
the cities and towns had th balance ,
on tha wet side, while the rural dis
tricts cast their lot with the anti-saloon
people. The reason for this eondl- ;
tlon has been sought by those who hav
made some study of th ' local option ,
question, and several answers hav
ben given.-'? (?.; K-;:":.
... Affects Karvest Hand.
It 1 argued tht th men of the
town and citle desire th saloons to
remain becauae the license cut down
th expenses of tho city government
Another - reason advanced fs that the
saloon is such a common thing to a
man of th city that he pay but lit
tle attention to it, and so does not no
tice Its evil effects to tb extent usual
with the man from th country who
pays occasional visits to th city. ,
From" the farmer's standpoint there
ar several arguments explaining why;
the farmer 1 so universally ready to
vot th city saloons out of business.
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.
V,'" City Visits Disastrous. . ,
'" It la also argued that the saloon Is
a novelty to th farmer more than to
the city man, and that for thl reason the
farmer feel its evil effects more than
the city man. 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.
