Attack on XfiTf Btm Trade,
' That the attack upon the quality of
the Oregon egg In the market report of
a morning publication -was not justifies
is the undivided opinion of Front'street
handlers and no one know ' better as
to. quality, than those who do the bus
iness. That the attack" upon the qual
ity of the local production vti due to
the efforts St the morning paper to help
out friends who have eastern eggs to

The following firms are among , the
most prominent in the north weet and

"I am astonished at the attack upon
the quality of Oregon eggs. They are
t
usi as gooa now a ai any vtmm oiinni
hi a neriod of the year. ' 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. There is abso
lutely nothing la the report printed by
the morning paper. It ia out of the
Question. Our eggs are well up to any
standard.
nn Lmt A flo The Journal should
refute the statement made by a morning
paper regarding tne poor quaiiij ui ins
uvegon eggs.-,
Vo Trouble wtth Quality.
John A. Bell of Bell A Co. "We are
experiencing no difficulty with the qual
ity of our Oregon eggs. They are as

John Koskey of McEwen a Koskey
"It's absurd to talk of outtlng out the
ale of Oregon eggs because of quality."
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. It's natural- that our sggs
should be better man roe averagv run
of eastern stock beoauae we can get
them within a few ays from the time
they are laid."
W. B. Glafke Co. "Oregon na ar
good enough for us. We atlfl ;ant
shipments.'. - '

"We are stlU in the market forre-

Co. "While Oregon eggs are not com
ing In as fine shape aa they might,
we are not considering the Idea of out
tlng out their sale." j
Oar Eggs Hot to Be Oondsmned, -
Henry C. 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

Knocking the quality will not affeot

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.
Hogs are just about steady with a
small run and , former quotation the
A' year- ago today there was Intense
weakness In the cattle situation, with
prices 86o lower. Hogs and sheep were
easy ia sieaay at uncnangeo value.
