TURKEY OUTLOOK
IS QUITE FOGGY
Demand Looks All Eight but
Trade Does Not Know
About Supplies.
PORTLAND WHOLESALE MARKETS
Egg market quite steady.
Chickens firm at advance.
Veal continues very scarce.
Outlook for turkeys mixed.
Hay market Is steady.
Wheat Is firm and unchanged.
Outlook tot Turksys Mixed,
The outlook for the Tnanksg tvlng tur
key market Is still very badly mixed.
All Interests are at sea regarding the
- future of supplies and prices. -One
, thing, however, that is impressing is
the fact that inquiries for supplies are
heavier than usual. This may possibly
be attributed to the foggy view of the
market that everyone seems to hold and
for that reason they are around making
diligent inquiries regaraing in out
- look.
"More Inquiries are being received
for turkeys this year than usual.' says
W. H. Dryer. "PeopVe are asking about
turkeys and what will be the jjrobable
price for the holidays. These inquiries
;. are oomlng from both the city trade as
well as outside. The . situation Is so
thoroughly mixed that the trade has
- inua tar Deen unaoie o preaici any
thlna- for tha future. None are nam
tng prices for the simple reason that
plies will be. If the country shipper
wouia let tne iraoe Know aneaa or tune
what the shipments would amount to U
would materially neip tne situation.
Chicken Supplies Mors Off Well.
Chicken supplies- aro moving off
quite well at this time around llftc
a pound for good livestock. Tne ar
rivals have not been so heavy as ex
pected. The big buyers are buying prac-
tlcally all their' supplies of chickens
lor Uie Thanksgiving traae at mis time;
" this giving them the opportunity to
properly fatten them. The market gen
erally acts this way just previous to the
noiidaysi witnm a lew aays or -xnanxs-Brlvina-
It Is usually the rule for heavy
supplies Of chickens to come to market
and that is tne lime inev are noi uauaj
ly wanted. This invariably results In
: a serious break in quotations and of
course there is loud complaint from the
country shippers. '
Xgf Mark Quite Steady.
In the egg market a very steady tone
1 -ruling at this time. With arrivals
of local ranch stock quite small, the
' former heavy, arrivals of 'eastern stock
are cleaning up quite well" and sellers
of the better quality are therefore stif
fening their views. No change In prloes
': as yet..
. Dressed Teal Is Hard to Oct
Supplies of dressed veal are hard to
obtain along Front street these days.
The scarcity has been so pronounced
that some of the butchers have been
unable; to supply their trade for Rom's
'days. The tendency of holders, thare
fore, is to force a slight advance In
prices. While dressed hogs have been
arriving very freely of late the market
is generally cleaned up at the prices
printed by The Journal.
Brief Votes of Txont Street.
Local Concord grapes are arriving
again in small baskets and are quoted
at 26o for the best
Potatoes and Onions are firm and un
' changed.
Butter market is firm with no change
In values. Same in cheese although
sellers are not pushing sales- because
" most of them believe the- market will
do better.
Because Of the slightly lower price
of late there has been a material In
crease In the demand for bananas.
Local cauliflower is coming In quite
fine shape at this time and in conae
' quence the demand is better.

There !s Ja good and steady tone In
the local hay market Efforts of specu
lators to depress the market by talking
of enormous receipts and offerings
have failed to have the desired effect
and tha result Is that farmers are not
offering supplies any faster than the
uemanu warrants.
Because of this hay prices are hold
ing quite steady with values unchanged
except for one or two grades. Alfalfa
hay is firmer because of the heavy de
mand now coming from the meal grind
era. An advance of 60c to II a ton Is
generany Deing asued at eastern Ore
gon points on this account
The rash Kraln markets were firm
but quiet today, prices being maintained
in' all lines. For futures the market
showed the usual Saturday quiet on
the board of trade todav. nrlcaa belne

The cattle market is looking up
somewhat" says Lee M. Lacey of Hunt

Improvement in the price in about a
week. Sheep are a little stronger, but
hogs are ruling a fraction up for se
lect aualltv. although ordinary good
stuff Is now going about $6.00 6.107'
"While there is no change In the price
of cattle at this time." says Tom Ben
son of Benson A Gould, "the market is
now cleaning ud more easily than for
some time. However, I do not look for
any Improvement in the price for a
week or 10 days.

LABOR HEEDED
ON NEW ROAD
Contractors on Portland
Tillamook Line Call',
for More Men; '
Not since 1907 has there been such a
dearth of labor in Oregon, according to
Elmer E. Lytle, president of the Pacific
Railroad & Navigation company, which
Is building the new Portland-Tlllam'ook
line. Operations of the contractors on
me roao are Deing seriously ninaerea
by lack of men to carry on the work,
and at the Tillamook end of the line
the contractors are working with about
nali as many men as they need.
"We are being greatly delayed
mrougn our inability to secure men in
all lines of labor." said Mr. Lytle. "And
there seems to be no chance or the sit
uatlon gejrtlng any better. I'd like to
send 150 men today to the Tillamook
ena or our line.
As an instance of how our work has
been retarded by the lack of labor we
had to stOD operations while we broueht
our piling around from the Columbia
river. we nad an we couia possibly
want on our own right of way. but we
couldn't get men to cut them. All we
could do was to send up to the Co
lumbia and wait for them to reach in.
"I don't think men have been so scarce
sines the boom times of 1907. when men
were so notoriously scarce. I bellecve
we are paying $2.25 a day at least we
are offering the regulation scale but
we can t induce labor to come to us. '
The western portion of the railroad
was to have been opened early this
month, but this has had to be postponed
until enough men can be secured to
complete the line.
