Ths market for poultry products was
again quits weak alone Front street,
and therefor prices were not very fa
vorable. . - '
Turkeys ars attrsotlnr most attan-
tlon owing; to th nearness of the iiolt
v day demand.- Present .arrivals In that
line are the greatest aver known bar
at this period of the year.
With the best' demand In fact, 99 per
cant of It still a week away, receipts

Turkeys were sold along Front street
this morning at 26o a pound for select
ed dressed birds,- with ' ordinary lots
going at BJtto and oulls from lOo a

J j ' Chicken Marks Tory J?oar. L .
jT Notwithstanding the circulars sent
I out by ' commission handlers aiid the
M advice given by this paper not to ship
r ; chlckena to market at this time, the
. trade is very badly overloaded. Sales
re nra to cioee except at ruinous
. values. In a limited way as high as
' 12o has been received for chickens dur
ing the past (0 hours, but cleanups
1 cannot be made above 11c a pound,- and
some sr unwilling to take hold of sup
pliea at that figure.
As in the chicken market, thera Is
only a nominal call for ducks and gessa
. at this time, and 'the trade la alow at
: the quotations printed today
Mora coons of chlckena ware carried
over by Front street handlers Saturday
man during any previous flay
the memory of tha locanra.de.
White Beans Are Higher. r
With the 'east still a heavy buyer of
white beans on th Pacific coast, the
market both for small and large slses
la firmer and higher. While the bulk of
the eastern demand Is for' large white
owing to the fact that tha trade there
la accuatomed to that Slse, small white
are feeling equal strength here. Pinks
are weaker and lower but there has
been a further substantial advance in
Umas. . s
Dressed Meag' Very" Weak
All through the dressed meat trad
a weaker tone is showing today. Quite
a number of hogs -were carried over
from Saturday owing to the-more llm-
It 1 call even at shaded prices. A few
dealers carried over a small number
of veal but that portion of the trade la
better than for swine. , Mutton market
Is easy.
Sharp Loss in Grapes.
Front street handlers have lost eon
slderable 'money , on- grape shipments
within the past week owing to the
greater offerings and""-ha 'poorness of
quality. Bales of overripe atock were
made this morning as low as 40o a
crate, . these same grapes costing tha
. seller 1 earlier in the week,
Cheese, Prices Are Holding.
While showing practically no change
In the higher limits, although several
wholesale grocers are asking lta for
flats . in -case lots, th chees market
is firmer. None are now offering fresh
stock under . ltVfco a pound.- Broken
cases bring 17o generally for flats.
Orange Movement Better. "
A much better movement of new crop

ported at $3.78 a box 8om old crop

TODAY
Sales Are Being Made Cent Higher
, Tha "Iiast Week- Becelpts Are
Small,: but Are Increasing Since
Price Began to Advance Here.'
Tha egg market is-flrmer and higher
for local ranoh stock wlth recelpts still
axoeadlngly smalL Sales In ths whola
sale market were mad today as high
as 4o, a dosen this morning, although
avarag transactions wars not abova
45c However, this latter figure la an
advance of a cent above what th same
interests, were, charging last week., ;
While It was quit, natural that re
ceipts of eggs at. this time of ths year
are small, quite a few oases are again
oomlng forward to Front street since
local quotations advanced go sharply.
For a while there waa too much differ
ence between the price ruling at Port
land and that charged by northern deal
ers. Result was that most of the fresh
stock from the Willamette valley went
to Pu get sound, instead of seeking lta
natural channel at Portland.
Eastern . fresh ggs are In larger
supply and these are generally quoted
at 40c a doaen along the street. Soma
sellers of so-called aaatern fresh eggs
are offering them at 82 Uo a dosen.
However, these are reported to be noth
ing mori nor less than selected April
storage stock, a
Regular sales of Aprils are' reported
at 80o a dosen, although soma Interests
ars reported to be selling 2o under this.

For selfish, ease;

And work to do.
A hero's heart that will not quail nor

But fight the battlethrough.
And, If perchance I do withstand ths

Of fiery hall.

Yet fights to fall.
