Purchases Are Easily Made in
the Willamette Valley at 40c
Per Hundred Pounds; Other
Points Lower than Us.
Discriminating railroad rates against
the western - portion of - Oregon have
ra.ud this section, to lose -the entire
, Potato trade of Arlsona and 'Texas,'
I I Potatoes are today being 1 reely- ef
, fared by Colorado growers at 80o per
hundred pound f. o. -to. cara and Colo
rado haa a rate of 82a Into the south
' west."'-' , i
. Because of the big crop in Idaho, potatoes-are
being;. offered by the grow
ers of that state around the same price
' as rulM In Colorado and at the present
time Idaho lias a rate of 69o Into Arl
- Bona and Texas. This will be reduced
on May-ll. to 64c. -v -v'v - :. - "
WesternOregon producera have a rate
Of 76o into - Arizona and some parts
of Texas, and therefore, are unable to
compete with the other sections for. the
luDer trade or tne soutnweat. -,
Potatoes Down to eoo.'
' ' Market for potatoes is- down at coun
try shipping points ' and In the Wil
lamette valley buyers are able to pur-
: cnase a oozen rimes as many cars as
they can use at ,40o per hundred pounds
and there Is a Ilkllbood that even this
. low value will be reduced. ? ,
; Potatoes , were nevef so freefcy of
fered her as this time and' therefore,
- the acala of torloea ls:- :reachlnr - the
lowest mark Tor many years. - ' ' jj
, Dealers place the blame for the pres
ent glut and low prices upon -the grow
ers, who, they : allege, held 1 back, their
supplleo for, toe high prices last fall
and-this spring, when the 'stock 'could
have been : moved out; of .the way "at

stream la valid, but It does ; not decide-
thit tho order, and, notice, where
by the .fish commission endeavored to
close the stream or streams, Is valid

men claim that the streams were never
legally cloaed for the reason that there
waa no legal notice or no. legal scrvlco
of the same, as decided by statutes. The
only way which 'this tiueation ; can be
determined, they'.. claim, w1ll.be for the
fishermen to flab and let the state pro
