POULTRY MARKET REVIEW
Trade Experts Better - Demand on
Account Boa Festival. '
A TYont street houaa haa Issued the
following review regarding the poultry
market:
Poultry market waa poor for the en
tire week, especially on bene and small
springers. Toward tha latter Dart of
the week, however, receipts were lighter
and stocks for the week were pretty
wen cieanea up ner Saturday night.
Hens sold for from lo down to 15c and
generally at the last named price. We
got Ko early In the week for some, but
most of them sold for lie. Springers
generally aold at 12 0 13c. Large onea
are mora desirable than are the small
onea Large spring ducks (must be
three pounds or more) will bring Z59
tic, but old ducks ar dull at 14 16c.
Fat dreaaad turkeya will bring ti&
17 Ho, and good live turkeya too Old
geese dull at llQllo and large young
ge will bring It 14a It Is our opin
ion that thla will be a good week for
spring eniekens, if or good alt, and
that ft will be wall for you to aend all
you can. It la Ukely also that hena
will be pretty good oellera at about
aoove prices. Oet the goods in early if
you can; we will have lota of visitors in
me city tnia weeK, ana many of them
will want chicken.

ReDorta from the Interior, received by
local dealers, atate that the outlook la
ror the greatest harvest of alfalfa hay
In the history of the Pacific northweet
There la no likelihood of alfalfa
growers taking the same course this
season as they did a year ago. At that
time 'they were offered liberal nricee
by stockmen, but were or the opinion
that exorbitant, valuea should rule be.
rauae the crop waa amaller than uauaL
Th result was that a large per cent of
the livestotck which waa uaually fed lo
eastern Oregon, Washington and Idaho
waa aent to other plaeea where feed was
cheaner. Thla threw a huse surplus of
auaira on the raciric nortnweai mar.

me result-
Wheat market la firm but Very aulet

Rogue River Fruit,
Medford, Or., June I. The pear crop ,
in tne Rogue River vauey inis aeason
will be a banner one, surpassing last
year's production to a considerable ex
tent, according to Professor P. J.
O'Gara, who has Just completed a tour
or tne principal orcnara in me val
ley, Hlllcrest, Burrell, Gore, Allen,
Bear Creek and other orchards wer
visited and th crop will be a splendid
one.
Winter Nells alone of the pear fam
ily will not produce a large crop, owing
to defeotlve pollination. This crop will
be about 60 per cent of the one har
vested last year.
The apple crop in the valley will
range between 40 and 60 per cent of
last year's production, this being aa
off year for apples.
"The - orchards were never In a
healthier condition than at present"
states Professor O'Gara. "Blight has
been entirely eradicated and every
thing lends to assure a large pear
crop. A large number of reports
have reached this office to th effect
that several orchards had loat many
of their pears, but I found on my In
spection that these reports wer un
founded. ,
"From present indication pears will
nrnduca more this vear than ever be
fore, with the exception of Winter
Nells. These did not pollinate as they
should."
