' , PEACH DEMAND IS GOOD
News coming from California woujld
indicate a better market for the early
quality apples of Oregon than had been
expected. Orders are being received by
California -shippers for heavy supplies
of Gravenstetns. Australia is the buyer
and shipments in that direction are said
to he thr heaviest on reee-?Mor thlsH
period. " . ,
While only Gravenstelns are being
taken liv the southern common wealth nt
Ithls time, there are inquiries from there
for other varieties. The ijetter smppinR
quality of the Gravenstefn Is reftlly the
reason why practically all the sales
have been In that line.
Very little good rjuality apples are
arriving from northwest points at this
time. In fact, even California Is not
shipping any real good stuff In this
direction, owing to the excited condi
tion of the Australian trade.
Crop prospects throughout the north
west are very good. Delayed reports
now coming forward Indicate that while
some of the districts will not have as
great a crop as expected, total output
will be the heaviest on record.
LEWIS RIVER CROPS
QUITE FAVORABLE
(Srxoltl to Tt JonnuM
Woodland, Or., July 26. Crop condi
tions in the Lewis river valley are quite
favorable, despite the fact that the
sprlpg was very backward, being cold
and rainy, but the past few weeks of
good weather have brought vegetation
of all kinds out wonderfully. A great
deal of the first cutting of clover was
damaged by rains, as It matured for cut
ting Just prior to a rainy spell, but most
of it is in a fair condition. This loss,
however, is fully met by the lare sec
ond crop of clover that will be har
vested, as the rains brought out a large
growth. During the past few weeks
of good weather, however, a large crop
of other domestic hay was harvested
and housed, in fine condition and the
overflow lands in the bottoms promises
a large yield of native hay. Grain
harvesting was interfered with the lat
ter part of last week by rain. The grain
crop will turn out well anl the acreage
Is much larger than In former years,
All root crops arc looking fine, espe
cially potatoes, and If the yield of
tubers is In proportion to the looks of
the fields of vines there will be a large
output and as the acreage is about 60
per cent greater than last year the
valley ought to have a bumper turnout.
It 1s hoped thnt prices will hold up
to a fair figure on potatoes, as the
crop will bring many thousands of dol
lars into the community. Outside of
pears the fruit crop Is a comparative
failure this year and this means much
to the community, as the apple crop,
especially, has always been a consider
able source of revenue to the fruit rais
ers of the vicinity. The local cannery
has arranged to pack a large quantity
of string beans and there are many
large fields of these and they will pro
duce heavily this year. Other crops are
about the average for this section.

South Omaha had a direct effect upon
the naming of hog prices at North Port
land today. Values were advanced to
$8.60, or fully 10c nbove any recent
quotation here. Sales were mado up to
$8.50.
While the advance here was rsther
good, It still keeps this market out of
line with what is occurring elsewhere.
Notwithstanding that Portland hog
prices are the highest In the entire
country, they are 35c under what killers
are paying for stock they Import from
the Missouri river section, although lo
cal hogs are of extra, .fine quality.
While top hogs sold here at $8.50
this morning, there were sales at an
advance of a dime at South Omaha,
which placed tops there at $7.75. This
price Is the highest limit reached by
the trade there recently, snd means
that It cost Pacific coast packers at
least $8.S5 to land these supplies at
their packing plants.
Chicago Is Basis.
The fact that th price of provisions
here Is based upon the price of hogs
rit Chicago plus the freight from there
to the Pacific coast, swine producers
have agreed that they should receive
the Barne basis for their livestock. Kll
ers do not see that view, but are paying
more for their offerings than any other
market in tho country.
.There wero only two loads of hogs
hvallsble for the North Portland market
today, and the best of these brouirht
the advanced price. A few other head
were Drought rorward as a direct pur
chase of a local slaughterer.
At Chicago there wag a strong tone
in tne nog trade with tops at an advance
of 5c to 10c at $8.25, or 25c under the
best price avallabl here. Run for the
day was 11,000 head, compared "with
11,100 a year ago.

rancy Cattle Are Higher.
The $7 mark was again reached for
cattle nt North Portland torlay, several
sales of extra fancy steers going at the
new high mark. Recent efforts of
killers to depress the trade have proved
a laliure and tney nave been forced to
pay more money owing to the higher
uncos available at other centers.
There was only a small offering of
cattle in the rortn i'ortiand yards to
day. totals being 101 head compared
with 182 a year ago and 105 head this

Not only did steers sell higher at
North Portland today but thero was a

(ii-neral ("ii.lltloii In the sneep trade
One of the noticeable features of the
present grain trade Is the very liberal
offering by producers who were tho
principal holders In 1911. M. H. Houser,
the local exporter, who secured 46.000
bushels of IS) 11 wheat from Huntley
Bros., extensive producers of coirax ana
Spokane, about two weeks ago, pur

of the same parties during the past 24

to 67c In the country. The same buy
ers purchased altogether about 100,000
bushels yesterday tor eariy loading.

The most liberal estimates that un

the American crop for 1912 at more than
236,000 bales, compared with 211.000

about the same as a year ago.
