The shipper of livestock during tha rust week who did not receive the tip- iop price nns only nimseu to Dinme. These were the words of a prominent livestock handler whose many yesrs' experience In the livestock trade give mm a piace in livestock circles that en ables him to tell to a nicety just what the market nedi. There was not the sllrhtest bit of excuse for any shipper of livestock to receive low prices during the past week, for the market could scarcely be in bet ter .anape ror the payment or gooo prices.

Every day or ao a oar of eastern egga (storage stock) arrives at some coast city ana these eggs are placed upon the market. Arrivals of fresh eggs at the various centera ara very small, but oeapue mis ii is atatea mat several times the actual amount or arrlvala of fresh stock are sold aa such every day In practically every wholesale section of uie coast.

"Ho can th authorities prove that the eggs arenot local ranch stock of late production?" This misbranding of m a anl.i tn be more severe in the Puget sound olties than other places because most Of the estrs sold there Are hmno-ht from other places because the sound terri tory produces but few at any time. For Instance it has been the custom for years ror some or the northern mer chants to purchase Oregon eggs Bay, around 32c. and yet claim to be sell ing them for a less figure. From this it seems that eastern eggsWith their cheaper price and srenerallv oh on nor quality Is substituted for tha hnm stock In order to hurt the reputation of the Oregon product as much as possible. Oregon eggs are Just as good as Wash ington eggs, and vice versa providing they are freah and the distance of travel Is so small between the two atatea that this makes practically no difference . in tha quality.

With the coming of rains there will be better grass and this win help me local proauction. While a. slight decrease waa shown in the arrivals of cream the paat week, the risible supply of butter here la greatly increased owing to the impor tation or eastern atock ana me witn drawal of local storage supplies. The price has gone to tfce limit where It Is profitable to dispose of atoraga hold ings and this Is what tha atorers ara doing. Several cara of eaatern egga were unloaded here during the week and brought forth mora boosting of local values by those who had on local sup plies but were plentifully supplied with eastern stock and were therefore the chief ones to benefit by any advance ln home egga ' Poultry supplies during the paat week were not near as heavy aa the prevloua week although tha traUe thought that several times as many coops arriveu. The actual number of arrivals Is printed In this column In comparison with previous weeks.
