The orchard from "" where the pears were shipped ha net' ' etd the owner 00 an acre during the past five years. . A total of 40 aores are In pears at this time. George Putman, editor of the Medford Tribune, who was in the city this morn ing, told The Journal that the Medford district would ship too cars of pears this season, and of apples and pears combined the Bogue River valley would ship a total of 800 cars the present sea- son. "The pear crop Is very good this ' Qinusuany good quality and the trees ' I .heavily lade. The crop is late this because of the cool nights, which hare kept the frtllt backward. It .'is now believed that this is a good thing, because California wJH be prac 'tically out of the eastern markets when vour fruit enters.'! .". .. r ... ' r . Vnprofltabl Ship Saturday. ', . ' , At this time of the year it Is un profitable as a rule for shipments to reach the Portland wholesale market on a Saturday. Generally speaking, the trains are late, and deliveries cannot be made by the express companies until late in ne d". As a rule, retailers are out of the market by Saturday noon, and therefore stock that arrives about that time or later fciust be carried over until the following Monday. This gen erally results in cut prices. That was what happened to the tomato market - a . week ago yesterday, and yesterday and today the cantaloupe market la suf fering from the same cause. ... ' Too Many ."Cants" OOme forward. Too many crates of cantaloupes are coming forward at this time, and sacri fice quotations are being named in most Instances. Sale are being made from $1.25 to $126 a crate; the latter for beet Dalle stock and' the former for ordinary California shipments.

A demand for cows was the new fea ture of livestock trading today, and cows -were sought by all buyers. The reappearance of the call for cows was rather unexpected, and came at a time when there were -practical Jy only nomi nal supplies offering. During the past few days but few cows have. put In an appearance in the Portland yards, and therefore buyer have had opportunity to take on but scant supplies. The demand for cow ia today ' the best ever shown In this market for summer trading. Good eows would move readily In th Portland yards at this time at $2.26. and it is likely that as high as $2.40 would be offered if the proper quality was shown. Sales today did not go beyond $3.26, but this was not due to any lack of appreciation by buyers, but to the lack of suitable top stun. . Foot Steers Bomawhat avy.
