DECREASED MAKE OF
CHEESE TO BE SHOWN
IN TILLAMOOK COUNTY
J. H. Reeve, Wejl Known Local
Handler, Returns From Inspec
tion and Reports Shortage; Price
. Is Reing Held at High Point:
The Outtiut of cheese At Tillamook
at this time Is somewhat below the
normal even f or this period of the sea-
buttzb rural TO SSOF.
There will be a sharp drop In tne
prion ox joeai suiter aaonaay monuuf,
The loss will do at loaat SHo and per
haps mora, Ths decline la bains forced
by the lower prices In California and
heavy shipments of stock from that
rtato Into this territory.
The market for eggs Is again weaker
and! lower along the street. While
local sales are being made as high aa
23c a dozen for limited supplies, the
trade U unable" to clean up at this
price.
The best price now available for
northern shipment is 21c a dozen and
some of the leaders are not willing lo
pay above 20c today.
While receipts of eggs have been
very liberal to date the market has
held remarkably well up to this time.
Yesterday and today the market
showed real weakness and forced
price concession.
With Ban Francisco quoting 22c for
extras today It is not believed that
the local market will show much
change within the Immediate future,
although much will depend upon what
the south quotes. It is reported that
some of the leading country stores are
holding 'their eggs for higher prices.
These visually are shipped to market
on Monday or Tuesday.! If the re
ceipts become unusually heavy at that
time prices will very likely drop.
CHICKENS ARE VERY FIRM
eon. Word to that effect! was brought
back to Portland by J. H. Reeves, con-
this city. I .
"There Is only a very small produc
tion of cheese in the Tillamook sec
tion at this time. The output at pres
ent. Is perhaps S per cent of the nor
mal output. While the make at this
period of the year is usually of small
volume, still this year's output to date
nas snown a decrease rrom what was
turned out a year aao. I
"In, reality there is practically no
cheese now being offered to the trade
by Tillamook makers. Naturally this
Is keeping the trade undersupplled and
is having the effect of holding the
price very firm. !
"The Tillamook association aeems to
have even a stronger hold on the trade
mare man in lormer years.

To make Portland the distributing
center for the vast supplies of Colum
bia river smelt caught annually in ti e
Cowlitz river, is the plan of B Wells
of the E. Wells company of Kelso.
Mr. Wells is known as the Smelt King
of the Cowlitz.
"We have made rather heavy -shipments
of fresh smelt from the Cowlitz
to Chicago,-Kansas City, Denver and
Omaha during the last few weeks and
have demonstrated clearly that there is
a big field for this business in future
years. The smelt have arrived in the
eastern markets in excellent condition
and have brought very favorable re
turns to shippers.
'Beginning Monday we intend to
make Portland the headquarters for
smelt shipments to all points In this
district. We have been forced to take
this step in order to secure better
rm rates ror our customers ana
ve the plan will prove a big suc
cess.
"The run of smelt In the Cowlitz this
season has been fully as heavy as dur-
North Portland swune into line attain I in? nnv roppn r van f "NT- nnlu Via st tha
