THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, TUESDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 6, 1810. POTATO US PLT i!B IIP 1 . Sniffli! Ars Asking Doubb What Deal ers Can Pay, Therefore the Trade Is :Ticd Up; .General Outlook Is for $1.25. Potato growers are getting extremely excited over prospective prlue advances and some are now said to be holding lor $2 per cental. . Dealers are offering no higher than $1 per cental for "immediate delivery even for selected stock , at country points, - therefore holders are asking twice as much as the marltet will give. 'It Js stated, that $l:2B a cental has been paid at country points during the past few days for' late delivery for seed purpowes, but no far as -known no transactions above $1 have been closed for actual consumptive demand. It Is now a certainty that California will bo compelled to seek elsewhere for Its potato supplies shortly ' after the turn of the year. After the holidays it is expected thatevery California po JkAto firm of importance will have a representative at Portland in order to keep in closer touch with the Oregon situation. . It Is now generally agreed among the trade that ih price of , potatoes will reach above tl fate in the soason, but figures of this kind are.mereljr a guess and are given for what they are. worth. The. trade in general believes that po tatoes will go as far as 81.25 per cental, although some are guessing a quarter aoove- this. Therefore even ' the more bullish of the dealers are unabieOO get -within aight of the price to be demanded by many growers. ' : , "As long as our growers keep their Ideas not higher than 31.25 per cental they will be safe," said a -well known bull interest, "but when they . talk of ' la they are simply getting out of the right road. The east has a good crop of potatoes a very good average one I might say and it is not likely there fore that values there wf, climb very high. Colorado ami far eastern potato growers have a 75c freight rate to the Pacifio coast, therefore it is a very good gamble to say that potatoes here will go 'to ,11.25- -:-;-v. "mV, "California must purchase potatoes elsewhere this season and from what I know that state will take all we can offer providing we don't get out ideas to. a famine basis.' Where California dealers will, purchase the bu4k of thqtr needs, of course 1 cannot say, but if this state holds it prices proper the demand will come here as long as we have potatoes to offer." . - - The following shows the potato crop . of the far western states for the past two seasons and likewise the total crop of the United States.

The strength in. tne eastern bog markets Is sure to have an effect here. It cost 18.70 to bring Nebraska hogs to the Pacific north west, therefore the difference between the present price and that packers are forced to pay for the bulk ot their re quirements. South Omaha, where the local packers secure practically all ot their imported stock, was 1 Be and 2Bc higher , today and has' been unusually firm recently. The bulk of the sales were from 17.35 to 17.60 today and it cost $1.10 per hundred pounds to bring the supplies to the coast. J. C. Davis of Shedd, Or., was the only shipper In the yards today.?

River Points,, There is an increasing run of steel head salmon in the Columbia river. .The news was brought to this city today by Sam ChriBtennen, manager ot th Pillar Rock cannery. , . -, ''Prospects are very- good for a big run of winter steelheads," he .told The Journal this morning. "The catch . is Increasing, and the fish Is of excellent qualtty." . .... Cannerymen and cold s storage opera tors arc paying 5 He a pound for steel heads and 4c for silversides at river points, and are very anxious to buy at these figures. Practically all the steel heads are either going into fresh con sumption or are being placed In the Ice houses for shipment east. , "This has been an unusually good fall season for gillnettera along the Colum bia," says Mr., Chrlstensen, "and many operators have earned as high as $1200 during that time. The season is the best I have ever seen from a wage point of view." . v.'i. . .. Practically all the . canneries have ceased operations for the year with the exception of Megler. who Is still can ning at Brookfieid, and la taking all offerings of sllversides. . v i . . ,V- i.i . mmm First Car Boxed Stock Ever Sold There Disposed of by -Northwestern Exchange. The first car of boxed apples ever sold to the trade of Montgomery. Ala., bas been disposed of by the Northwestern Fruit exchange of this city. : The exchange reports the apple sltua tlon today to The Journal as follows: , The demand at the present time comes principally from trade wanting supplies for the holiday demand." The market situation is steady and the demand Is sufficient to take care of the present supplies without accumulation. There Is much, encouragement to h found in the efforts which the exchange has made this year to broaden the market for northwestern aDDles. It has been fiur experience that given a market of suf ficient else to warrant purchases In car lots and the exercising of reasonable care in the selection of the fruit to be sent as samples of northwestern apples, the 1 demand can be developed wonder' fully This Is Illustrated In the case of Shreveport La., to which market we were able, by persistent effort, to sell a sample car early in - tha season. Nn other sales were made until that first car arrived when we were able t sell cars to practically every one lot the large fruit and grocery houses. Here -Is. what a traveling agent of the Kansas City Southern railway wrote to one of his firends at Alexandria. La.: -"I . saw absolutely the finest apples here yesterday that 1 have ever laid my eyes on. and I believe If you would get right busy you could sell two or mree.cars or tnem ror the Christmas trade. They were sold by the North western run exenange, Portland, Or. : They are putting out aome . Winesaps that are larger than any Ben Davis l! ever saw. Get husv'- If vnu can mill. quick connections with the account and want me to, i could probablv buy you a box from one-of the Jobbers here and express it to you for a sample.' v - we have heard from the party at Alexandria and are now working up an order from that city. . . We sold the first car of boxed apples several days ago, ever going to the city of Montgomery, Ala.. Here Is what the house at Montgomery writes us: "This is our first season for1 hand ling boxed apples, and in act tha first season that they have been handled 'n this vicinity. It may be that it will be impossible to sell another car In this market this season, but If not we will be right In the business in time next season." v- . .

The advance of $1 quoted by Arbuckle for the;' first of . the month ' has been followed , by still another rise of like amount ioday. . ThiS put the price of Aroucme package brand to $20.13, or the highest on record for- that brand. This same coffee was selling retail a few years ago at. wo packages for 25 cents. . ! Popular brands of roasted coffee that were .lormeny sellings at 18 cents a pound wholesale are now Quoted at 23 cents, with a tendency to climb above mat ngu re, almost any minute. There fore retailers have been forced ' to put this - coffee to 80c a pound In order to make their usual profits. The strength -of the coffee market is even more pronouced St this time than when the advances started. Crop ad vices from Brazil are scarcely encour aging to lower prices, and the spot market there is In exceedingly strong hands. In other 1 words, - the situation today resembles that of 1886. when the crop was cut In half an the price ad vanced from 7c to 22c within a single season in the New York future market. The past season has been unusually disastrous ror coffee growers.- The sea son has been wrong since it started.
