i The new law for apple packing, passed
by the recent congress, copies of whlcn
(have recently been received here, is ex-
pectea to be a big aid to tn mausiry ana
do away with much of the false labeling
that . tias been shown during recent
years; Whlls tha law 'ws-iw4ato
effect: iintll July 1, Ulh some of the
leading organisations of the country are
already taking the matter up.' . v
' The law pays particular, attention to
tjie packing of apples in barrels, but
also covers the labeling of boxes.
The law specifies the else of the bar
rels in which apples shall be packed and
whereiu the space shall b 7068 cubic
Inches, This provision brings the sub
ject under the Jurisdiction .of officials
of the weights and measures depart
ment Of slates and municipalities to
regulate. Kereafter a barrel of apples
will be legally the sams in all states,
so-rar ax size is concerned. .
Each barrel must be branded to show
the kind of apples (In name) it contains,
and there must be no others, It Is also
expected by the -promoters of the law to
compel growers to grade their apple
product as to stie before packing,
, One section provides:
' "The standard grades -for apples.
When packed In barrels, which shall be
shipped or delivered for shipment in In
terstate or foreign commerce, or which
shall be sold or offered ror sale Within
th United States, shall be as fdllowst
"Apples of one variety, which are well
grown specimens, hand picked, of good
color, normal shape, practically free
from insect or fungus injury, . bruises
and other defects (or apples of one vari
ety which are not more than 10 per cent
below the foregoing specifications) shall
be branded 'standard grade, minimum
size 3 14 inches,'' if the minimum slse Is
2 VI Inches in transverse diameter. If
the minimum size is iM, Inches they
shall be. branded 'standard minimum
slse 2,i inches.' If the minimum size is
8 inches they shall be branded 'Btsndard
minimum sisa 2 inches,' in transverse
diameter." .
Three standard grades of commercial
apple are thus established, by govern
ment edict, and the apple trade is ex
pected to ignore all other sizes as "Junk"
according to announcements, entltluU to
second and third class prices only.
Specifications are included In the law
establishing the legal size "'"of" apple
boxes. MiKbranding of barrels and
boxes, so they will misrepresent the
character of the contents, In any way,
is punishable by a fine of $1 for each
such package, together with ' costs of
rrosecution. The law will be enforced
hrough the United States courts, but
does not go into effect until July 1, 1913.
Meantime, Sealer Janssen is Informed,
leading apple growers and shippers all
Over the country are enthusiastically
complying with theee regulations - now,
and the trade Is establishing new stand
ards, which 4s expected to affect dlsad
vantageously thousands of producers In
many middle and eastern states wno
have to yet adopt the htgu efficiency
methods of growing and selling thin
fruit that orevail throughout the Pacific
coast and Kocky mountain districts.
In a letter issued by Secretary W. D.
Tidwell of the -Western Fruit Jobbers'
aHHOctatlon he says:
"We want to make this law a live
,one. and thereby abolish 'Junk' in the

As has been forecast in these reports,
the lack o.f offerings of good muttons
is forcing killers to look in otner 01
rectlons for their , supplies and while
thl may not have any effect upon the
lnoal trnilA temporarily, it Is not the
best thing possible for the market
Killers nave oeen crying ior a. ucum
lot of stuff than they have J&een receiv
ing during recent weeks in the sheep
yard at North Portland. So poor nave
been the bulk of the offerings that It
was with difficulty that killers could
get enough stock of proper quality for
their actual needs from day to day even
after sorting and resorting the auppHos
ih.v hat mirnhnsftft In the vardS.
Arthur A. Bososkey, buyer for the
Union Meat company at the Union
.tvniruarria hn iuai returned from Mon
tana, where he completed the purchase
of a bunch of selected mutton for hia
romnanv. He brought forward three
inuHa rmm Hamilton this morning. -
-Now that killers have been forced to
mn elsewhere for their supplies, ship
ments from local points are again com
m if Is noteworthy that un
til killers went elsewhere for their
need they could not get home raisers
to turn out the class of stock they need-
Cd' ra amtton Very Tim.
For fat mutton and lambs ha market
Is very firm at North Portland. While
total receipts at the yards recently have
been quite heavy, little of the stuff that
cams forward was of the killer class,
therefore buyers were compelled to put
most of their purchases on feed at
heavy expense. The shortage was more
noticeable In the Iamb division than for
others, therefor in that line Quotations
have been firmest recently.
At Chicago there was a steady tone
In the sheep trade, with no change In
prices. .
Kansas City sheep market was firm,
with prices unchanged. ; . .

Hog Traoe Is Steady.
There was little change in the hog

dav. Another big run appeared, total
ufferlugs beinr 1665 head comparea witn
799 a week ago. 113 a year ago, and 763
head this ssme day two year ago.
Hog market situation east of the
Rockies 1 weakening again and it will
likely have an effect upon the trade
here if the downward movement con
tinues for awhile.
Chicago had a loss of 8c to lOo in
the hog market this morning. Run was
fractionally less than on the same day
Kansas City hog market wasva dime
lower than 'Saturday at the closing to-
Klddle Bios.,
' Replenished supplies were shown In
th cheese market today With the arrival
of the steamers Delia and Sue Klnwre
from Tillamook, t ' v ' ; -
The former Is the properly of Charles
Ray. who operates th vessel almost
solely for the purpose of bringing the
cheene from his Cloverdal factory to
Portland."'"-;';: ,',:- .. - , .'' ,
Quite fair supplies were brought for
ward but stocks cama upon a market
that was entirely bare of cheese, there
by finding an Instant demand for every
thing that came, !
. Prices were fully maintained at tha
same average asjast week.- The Outlook
Is for stlU higher price but leading in
terests are of the opinion that it would
be better to wait awhile oefor giving
the market value another boost -1
Conditions in tha eastern cheese mar
ket are much bct'.er than had been ex
peoted. While there are several carloads
of eastern cheese hero, the importers
have not been abl to get from under
because local maker would not advano
their price to a basis where unloading
of the eastern stocK would be profitable.
In any event the trade here Is not ac
customed to the flavor .of the eastern
product and. would not pay as much for
It as for the Tillamook or Coos Bay
make. ,

New York, Nov. 18. Sentiment wa
bearish today, although trade waa not
brisk enough during tha day to give
any definite basis for the market. With
few exceptions the market wa several
fractions lower than at the closing Sat
urday. The persistent selling of Steel In view
of the remarkable activity in that trade,
has attracted a great deal of Interest
and comment in financial circles. A
former official , of the United States
Steel Corporation iias been credited with
supplying the bulk of the orders which
are said, to beve been for the short ac
count, ne is said to nave been a heavy

' LITTLE BIDDING FOR CARGOES.
(Furnished by J. C. Wilson & Co.)
' London, Nov. 18. Wheat on passage
is quiet, with little bidding.
Mark Lane miller market quiet for
foreign wheat.
. Bid for club wheat are not now
ranging above 77c a bushel or a -cent
below the -former hlgn -later. There is
practically no business passing as farm
er are still of the opinion that their
wheat is worth at least 80c a bushel,
track basis tidewater, and efforts to
dislodge them from this position would
prove futile.
There ia but little business available
for wheat In foreign markets; bids for
cargoes being limited, especially for the
Paclfla coast product,
Th trade abroad IS now busily en-
faged in watching the Argentina and
ndlan wheat crops. Dry weather In
th latter country has been playing
havoc with the crops, but Argentina
has been getting a trifle too much
moisture and fears are expressed-on
that account. - .
Market for Oats continues to show
much strength locally, but prices are
stationary at the previous high mark.
Trade in barley la at a standstill. Of
ferings are limited but there seems to
be practically no call,
my remains firm at previous prices.

Washington, 1 Not. 1 8,Tha v TJnM
States supreme court today upheld th
decree of the Maryland federal court
dissolving tha, Standard Sanitary Man
ufacturing company and allied concerns,
which form th so-called bath tub trust,
Tha concerns were ordered dissolved as
in restraint of trad, In spit of th con
tention that .' th deerts "invaded ;tm
patent rights of th trust. - ,
Trust ' busters regard th bath tub
decision as the moat Important . since
tha Standard Oil decree. In the "patent
monopoly" decision last year the court
held that th owner of a patent could
dictate terms under which th patented
article was to be sold. , It was feared
that this might apply the same reason
ing to ths Sherman anti-trust law and
prevent th government from attacking
trusts which, controlled through owning
patents. Th decision, however, denied
such a view, declaring that th defend
ants' ownership of a patented tool did
not justify them in conducting a monop
oly. It was declared that they violated
the Sherman law whether the patented
tool figured in the case or not
