' While of course they cannot be considered as gooo. as early m in season. ins same condition exists every year, both here and in the east. Fresh Oregon eggs are as good as fresh eggs from any sec tion." Page BonThe Idea of Oregon eggs pot being as good as those from the east Is ridiculous.

Better Then Xaatera Xgff. Henry Everding of Henry Everding A Co. "I never heard of such a thing as cutting out the aale of Oregon eggs. It's not to be thought of for a single moment.

Thompson of Daveftport Thompaon Co. "No, we do not Intend to cut out the sale of Oregon egga and substitute eastern stock for them. We believe in home Industry and there ia no cause for complaint regarding the quality of our eggs. They are aa good as any eggs in the country that are pro duced at this time of year." Davenport Bros. "We Intend to con tinue selling Oregon eggs whenever we receive them. We have no fault to find with the quality.'' Everding A Farrell "We always han dls mostly Oregon eggs and always wllL Knocking the quality will not affeot us In the least. Wo welcome shippers of local eggs."

The overbuying of cattle 4n Califor nia by practically every local killer has been a very hard blow to the local in dustry accordinr to 'cattle raisers. "1 don't see just what the packers and killers mean.'' said a prominent au thority. "They tell us to build up the cattle industry and the very first thing they do is to go elsewhere for their supplies and let us suck our thumbs so- far as they are concerned." Just st this time the cattle market Is very dull locally with quite heavy ar rivals. There was no change In, the price during the day. . -v Sheep market, while allowing no ar rivals for the 84 hours, was weak at unchanged values because of the liberal offerings. At this time killers are mak ing their own values.
