Even Alaska Pinks Are Quoted
by Jobbers at $1 With Pros
pects of Still Further Ad-
, vances in the Price., ,
Ten-Cent Eumon miappearing:.
With the price of even the
poorest Alaska salmon now at
II - a doten" wholesale for one
pound : tails and with rurther
price advances likely, 10c canned
salmon Is expected to disappear
f rAm th market within a short
time.
The 1919 fall-winter aeason, for fish
Ins along the Columbia river and Us
tributaries" opened at noon today and
more interests are operating than ever
before. . ' . ,
" The great scarcity of canned salmon
of ever description In practically all
world's markets is causing packers to
take advantage of every situation In
order to get additional supplies of fish.
A a usual rule there Is only nominal
racking of fall-caught salmon along the
Columbia river, but the present season
will find all the larger canneries operat
ing and every one of the cold storage
plants.
SalaiOn Prices Af Advancing.
With the entire pack of 1910 salmon
to date out of the hands of canners
and with many of the orders unfilled
owing to the lack of supplies specula
tors are holding their goods for higher
prices. In this market U has already
foieed the price of Alaska pinks to tl
h dozen for one-pound tails in a Job
, bing wav and a still greater advance is
due within a- short-tuns -owing-to- the
scarcity of offerings even by . second
haThe fall pack of silversides along the
Columbia is being nominally quoted at
$1.25 a dozen, compared with $1.10 at
the opening of the season a year ago.
but it Is unlikely that more than a
small ner cent of the , pack will be
offered'at this figure., A higher price
Is therefore expected. This price is
trom canners to Jobbers. ' , 1
Canners have named 77 cents a
dozen for dog salmon, otherwise known
as chums.- This compares with 67 Vt
cents, a year; ago. Considering this
high value, it is expected that packers
will pav more than 5 cents a fish for
this variety. ; Thai, was the erica agreed
upon at a meeting of the packers
recently. : ' -r :
The salmon season-that opens today
Will -remain open until- Way 1.-- -
No Trade In Hops.
Although there' are rumors of hop
trading no deals, can- rje connrmea oy

erally and the quality of the crop ts
first class. Yields are far below origi
nal estimates and in.'few Instances as

Cantaloupe Market Poor.
Owing to the enormous supplies offer
ing from California as well as local
points, the cantaloupe trade here Is in
very poor hape and has been In this
condition during the entire, week. The
breaking of the market at 8eattle forced
additional supplies of California "cants"
on the trade here. Up to that time the
local trade was good, v . .-..

Wheat dropped another cent a bushej
today in the local market and these
prices are now generally uniform In the
interior of Oregon and Washington. .
More selling hag resulted In the Pa
louse country during the past 24 hours
than in other sections, and there Is a
tendency among producers everywhere
to sell at least a portion of their wheat.
While practically all the deals re
cently have been for small amounts ln
dividual ly, collectively the purchases
have been rather liberal.
Today's general price for club Wheat
is 84o a bushel, bluestem 92c and forty
fold 86c a bushel. . The price on blue
stem today Is really a decline of 2c a
bushel. . i ... --.
Hay market Is extremely firm and
practically no offerings pf timothy are
shown at this time. "It would be im
possible to secure any great amount of
timothy hay, no matter what price we
offered,? said a well .. known buyer.
"Supplies of timothy are4 short in the
valley and growers are holding to what
they have. This Is helping the rest of
the hay market somewhat.

Owing to the great scarcity of milk
offerings, creamery men are paying ad
vanced prices.,; The general price for
milk today to farmers Is- 19 cents a
gallon delivery Portland, but so great
is the scarcity that some Interests are
paying as high as 21 cents a gallon and
are unable to get enough to supply the
wants of their trade even at this figure.
Not only is the fresh milk market ad
vancing and with prospects - of . still
further advances, but there is added
Strength In the canned milk trade. Even
at this time retail grocers are seriously
thinking of stopping the sale of 10
cent goods and asking an additional
nlckle for one can or , two cans for a
quarter. . .' .. .
Best known brands of canned milk
are quoted today by Jobbers at $4.05
4.10 a case of four dozen cans and at
this price the trade, saya It' is unprofit
able to sell at 10 cents. Even at the
higher price milk eanners are not able
to fill half the orders coming and there
fore a very stiff advance in the price
is1 expected to follow. This, then would
make it Impossible for retailers to sell
at 10 cents a can because the next rise
will cost them more than that General
expectations are for an advance of 25
to ji6 nts case. ; . -

Until two or three other big houses took

the opinion that probably a couple of
million bushels of long wheat for east
ern account came on the market along
with a lot of stop loss selling on the
break before 11 o'clock. The- trade Is
still without any adequate cash or ex

there. Flour news is a little more hope
ful. Some of the local leaders who
have been on the selling side are talking
more friendly to wheat
Corn trade did not have much to con
sider except the weather map. In place
of the killing frosts predicted for Iowa
and Nebraska over night the country
had"Ilght touches of frost in Indiana,
Illinois and Iowa, but nothing which in
dicated any injury to corn. It was a
one sided market all day. The forecast
which followed was for fair and warm
er weather, decidedly favorable for the
crop. i
Considering- the weakness In wheat and
corn, the oats market is acting stub
born, the big crop, fast increasing stocks
and greatly improved feed outlook are
all against oats prices.
In provisions it was discovered early
In the session that the packers were
again giving the market support, es
pecially good buying of September and
October ribs and lard. This fact gave
a firmer tone to the entire list. At the
close January product : showed 5c to

Sales Are Being Made Very

The local grape market is In poor
shape and prices are being shaded,
Enormous supplies continue , to come
from California,,; and Just at present
they are showing exoellent quality.' On
this account there is scarcely &ny de
mand for local Sweetwater stock, and
sales are hard to make even as low as
25c a crate.
California tokays are in fine shape,
and while generally quoted at $1.25 a
crate, supplies are being purchased for
less. In fact the grape market at pres
ent is entirely a buyer's affair, and his
money talks very loud.
Black Prince are generally quoted
from 76o to $1 a crato, but fow sales
are reported beyond the lower figure,
and lo fact It is hard to move supplies
there, -. . -:, -j ; , - ; . .,
Owing to" the glut of other offer

Only. a bandful of cattleiCame Into
the yards today, and little of this was
good atuf f. ; However, quotations all
