aavancea us
high figure several days ago. Is now
coHsidering a further advance and It la
likely that the price will therefore be
moved to 85c a pound. A year ago
today the price of butter stood at 16c a
pound or lc higher thw the highest
quotation ruling today. This high price
ruled laat year until October II. when
It dropped Wk to S2He Then, again
on DecemDer z n ni "v
and on the thirteenth day of the JWJ
month touched the high market of the
season 37 fcc for the second time.
Bgg Prion Are Mixed.
Values In the local egg market are
; somewhat mixed. Th;' email arrlvala
of local ranch enable the trade to put
, values to almost any figure, but aev
! eral handlers say they are unable to
secure above 28c for their stock, .while
others talk of 39 30c. The present
strained situation Is due entirely to the
heavy purchases of eastern eggs by
commission men. These eggs were pur
at inw nrices. and when-
ever the price of local eggs can be sent
higher. It adds that much to the value
of the eastern stock. Even though the
commission handlers of local eggs paid
their shippers more money than they
are actually receiving for the eggs
because they secure very scant supplies
at this time they would still be mak
ing more money because of the nlgn
profusion the eastern, foods.
Poultry Fricea on a Pane,
tr.ini n tha nnultrv "Tnsrkot are be
ing moved higner almost every day. but
buyers do not take kindly to this treat
ment and are holding off their pur
chases as much as pdsslble. While re
ceipts of poultry are somewhat heavier,
the trade la able to secure the price
quoted by The Journal without the least
trouble, but one or two receivers are
said to be quoting a still higher figure,
but not receiving it.
Receipts of turkeys are increasing
somewhat in fact, the arrivals today
were greater tliah for any week recent
ly. Demand is quite fair at the price,
but the market would not stand heavy
arrivals and maintain high values. It
Is stated that. Mr. McuouiricK or Van
couver, who has the governments Phil
ippine order for turkeys, has "farmed"'
nut his order among various buyers, and
they are at present ecourlnx the coun
try fnr supplies.
Brief HTotea of Pront Street.
A car of sweet potatoes and a car of
grapes were among the arrivals by rati
this morning.
WhllA rahhuirir'aiinnllea ara somewhat
better the market is firm at $2 2.21.
Peach supplies are somewhat better
cleaned up and for good stock the price
Is being maintained around 6076c.
Poor apples are still checking the
trade in the market and prices are un
satisfactory. '
Fresn prunes are in larger suppiy,
with prices ruling between 40 60c a
crate of four baakets.
Strawberries from local points came
In this morning and found a demand
around 20c. ' i
All Is quiet In the hop market, with
dealers, awaiting samples before start
ing a buying movement.
Chlttlm bark is steady to strong, with
price maintained and demand un
changed from last week. Those who
want to sell at quoted figures are find

Wr week tha killers have been buy
Ing off-grade livestock even against
their own better judgment, because
they did not want the yards to become
congested. Toey nave maae we siaie
raent. that It certainly does not pay
them to purchase off-grade stock even
at the much lower level of prices, for
the prices received for dressed stock
does not pay them. Every one wants a
better class of livestock than has been
coming, and killers have of late shown
their willingness to take hold of theae
better qualities and pay a very good
price. The proof of this Is tha very
quick sale of every lot of 1 fine quality
stuff that has lately arrived. Recently
a car of cows and heifers sold at 14
with practically no difficulty with every
buyer quite sorr- he was not able to
land tha shipment. This good pricS
was due to tha much better quality.
While today there wre but small ar-
rivals in mua auu gsir tmva 111 .uwt,
the market Is In a sorry plight and
of poor quality are not

capabilities are said to be enormous.

- Buyers and sellers of wheat en the
board Of trade are romlnr rloaai tn.
aether In their vlewa regarding con
ditions. Prices are not so far apart
and there Is evidence that It will not
be long before dally sales will be made.
The market for wheat was mixed on
tha board today. While September op
tion was dull and had but on hid.
ths price was a fraction better than
yesterday. ' Those' who hd held vlewa
of a very higtt market In December
ara evidently changing their minds tar
sellers came down on their asked prices
In this option to exactly the same price
tr-at kldders had heretofore - been oA
ferlng. December started at 83a bid
and 4e asked. The bid and asked
walues were both moved until It Uc
waa Quoted. This la below the i
asuea price or yesterday..
The market f or oata was very firm
on the board of trade today and ad
vanoed values were shown. Renfem-
per irnraa uncnangea z.om yesteraay
at 11.47 H bid. but made an. urivunr
of Uo before the close. No supplies
were offered under 11.62. The De-
cemoer delivery likewise started un
changed but moved up a fraction and
closed at 11.55 asked.
Barley followed the trend of tha b d
ding tn oats and after opening unchanged
the market went up a trifle.
rne casn grain situation is verv r rm
though rather oulet at the moment
Millers are not such anxious buyers at
these level for wheat but holders ?
determined not to sell for less. Cash
oata price Is being held up because of
tne greater demand than supplies. Ar
rivals for this reason are very scant.
since the recent decline of 15c a bar
rel In the local values on flour, there
has been a small spurt In business.
Mr. Ford of the Ford Oraln com
pany of Spokane was a visitor on
change today and expressed surnrise
inai tne local gram people did not do
more business than at present shown.
He is a firm believer In exchange
trading. He Is a member of the Port
land board of trade.

suffered somewhat from a sort of over
confidence and the result was a lower
range of wheat values in all world's
markets. Liverpool started "Ad under
yesterday and closed unchanged to Hd
lower.
This market was ail right at the
start and made a fair train early. It
then began to sell off. Lack of Imme
diate purchases by exporters caused a
renewal or the recent sening. Tne
early spurt is attributed by some to
the short covering, but this was like
wise the cause of the later decline.
Heavier arrivals of wneat tnan an

Starter Harrlman'e work yesterday
was far away from that of a flrat-clasS
starter. on several occasions he al
lowed one or two horses to start far
back In the ruck, where they would
never have a chance to set ud. Ha
called back an almost perfect alignment
In the first tier In the second heat of
the 2:16 trot, only to send the bunch
away badly. In the aaoond heat of the
1:14 pace tne rour entranta ot away
almoat neck and neck, yet he aounded
the recall. The owners evidently did
not hear or aero perfectly satisfied with
the get away for they kept on around
tne course. .

Inlntl, Fred T. Merrill's runner, took
ths bit in her teeth after the finish of
the l.alf mile race and circled the track
two and a half times while her rider
tugged at the rains with all his strength.
At last one of the track marshals over
took the maddened animal and brought
her to a walk.

Birdie P. finished second In the half
mile dash yesterday, but was dlsquall-
a Decause ner jockey naa not weighed
and her entrance fee had not been
paid. She had not even been entered in
tne race, ner handler thlnklns it an ex
hibition aprlnt Instead of a real race.

Henry Gray la popular with the grand
stand. When the gome son of Zombro-
Alloe appeared on the track yesterday
he was given more applause than anv
horaa except the peerless College Maid.
He had hard luck with hla harness and
sulky and had to retire from the race.

"Champion Buckaroo Rider of the
World" Stanley, who won hla title at
Cheyenne, can't hold a hackamore for
an Oregon Indian or even a farmer boy.
About the only thing he-has on tap that
we haven t all done is nis work with
the lartet, and none of us ever posed
as champions. His outlaw horse al
lowed the track drag to scrape hla heels
without shying.
