Hop Conditions Elsewhere. Th xTw York Producers' I'rtco Cur w.r,i in Its latest Issues says of the knn marlrAt' "Th dullness of the past few weeks continues and there are no present prospects of any (rrent activity before the new crop is harvested. Brewers arc not buyers to any extent on account of heaw stocks and decreased business, although It is understood business with them has picked up somewhat ow ing . to the hot weather. New York state sections report continued hot dry weather with only a few scattered I showers, and this will undoubtedly it ranse & litrhter yield than was expected. ''"he quality promises to be excellent, as the vines are In fine condition and en tirely free Of vermin. I he yieia will depend a great deal on the weather In the next week or so. A heavy rain would help greatly. No authentic esti mates are possible as yet. England re ports the crop prospect as brilliant, with all promises of a heavy yield of fine quality.' The continent reports are also very good." Big- Bun of 6teelhed Salmon. While there is not so heavy a run of Chinook falmon In the Columbia the r-afit few days. It Is stated that steel heads are much more plentiful. Ac cording to cold stornee m the catch of steelhends is breaking all previous records and their planus are filled to overflowing with fish. Oregon Cantaloupes Arrive. A shipment of two, crates of canta loupes was reported from the uppijr Colunihia this morning with sales re- IKirted around 3 a crate. California "cants" are finding a heavy sale at J2.60. A carload of walla VNnlla onions ar rived In fair shape this morning. Priced at SI. 36. Several small shipments of tomatoes arrived from White Salmon this morn ing in very fine shape. General sup plies were short and for ordinary stock the market stood between Jl and $1.25 a box." Peache nre selling generally lower With verv heavy receipts. Apricots are still a glut on the mar ket and those who retain heavy sup plies are willing to clean up as low as 75c- a crate. Bartlett pears are selling freely at J2 per g-egular sized box for best ar rivals. Hgg Market Is Weaker. There Is c weaker tone in the local egg market alonir Front street today. Arrivals are much more liberal an 1 nothing ever 24c is reported for the day. Some dealers were disposed to cut a fraction under this In order to clean tip. The weakness Is caused mostlv by the press of heavy withdrawals of storage stock as well as arrivals from the east. Brief Hotes of Trade. - New potato market is ste:idy at $1 and $1.50 for good " stock. McKlnley Mitchell has been awarded the govern ment contract to supply Vancouver bar racks with potatoes during August. Best grades of dressed im-ats are finding much favor with the trade, es pecially small sizs. Cheese market is stiff with no change in values for the day. No announcement has tii'is- far been received from tiie Borden Milk company regarding the future of Pioneer prices. Some of the trade professes to believe that the RimouneemoTif of ;in advance of i)e in Carnation t lie last, of the month Is merelv an attempt lo load up the trade with cheap priced milk before that time.
