THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK
By Hyman M.Cohen.
Appearances Indicate, that Butte in
terests which ar allied with a number
of pacific roust produce corporations,
will endeavor to introduce Chlnes
eggs to the. entire American trado
through I'ortlswGTand Heattle.
The recent heavy shipments of eggs
from China, td local partle. none f
which have been offered here', ho far
an, can he aseertulned, were placed 411
storage at point along the coast.
It 1b stated that tliewe eggs will he
withdrawn from the Ice houses at tit-;
very first opportunity anrt will be
hipped to the middle went and east
whan extreme hot weather inakea the
nar storage stock even bettor than the
bulk of the no called "freshly gath

Kffort to secure quotations on
Chinese egg here have proven futile,
although it Im Mated that it Seattle
connection of the name intercuts: has
been openly quoting the title brown
wtock about Bo a dozen less than the
local offerings.
The Chinese eggs have stirred the
trade along the coast more than any
thing thai lias heretofore put in ap
pearance. It is stated that th-e union
bakers of Han Franclwco decided not to
work In any plant that used the
Chinese egg. Whether thin action wan
taken because of poor quality of the
little brown stock or whether it was
Dimply an attempt to protect the
American poultry Industry is not
known.
The big growth of western Oregon
as a dairying center and the prospects
for the future, has caused the Borden
Condensed Milk company, the big
eastern corporation, to look for an
other site upon which to build a milk
condensery plant.
Several points along the east side
of the. yillamette valley have been
visited recently by representatives of
the company and it is stated that
there are several ideal sites for con
denseries. Whether the company in
tends to build more than one plant ia
not known at this time, but it is gen
erally believed that the present sur
vey of the field is being made for the
purpose, of constructing several plants
Of moderate size.
The Willamette valley has long heen
neglected in the matter of increasing
the dairy output. While the produc
tion has increased considerably during
the last few years. It is still of com
paratively small volume when the re
sources are considered.
Several milk condensery plants are
already being operated In the valley
and most of them have proven success
ful. . The building of more condens
eries iri the vallev means that much
more competition for cream supplies.
SMALL KILLERS PAY
which in turn has a direct, effect upon
the price that the producer receives.
, More and more eastern manufactur
ing interests are turning to the Pa
cific coast. The great growth of the
population of the Pacific slope during
the. last 10 years has been wonderful
and has orjcned the. eyes of the eastern
.trade to the great possibilities of oper
ating plants in this section, me Jat
est eastern corporation to announce its
intention of building a plant on the
coast is the Shreddeij Wheat company
of Niagara Falls, N Y. From Oak
land, Cal., comes word that Alexander
.1. Porter, president of the Shredded
Wheat- company of Niagara Falls. N.
Y., has closed a deal for the establish
ment in that city of a $1,000,000 fac
tory, to be a duplicate of the eastern
plant. The site ha been selected and
work on the buildings will be begun
within a month.
This will be the first big breakfast
food plant on the Pacific coast, and
Porter said that its establishment
would undoubtedly mean the coming
to the Pacific coast of a number of
other similar large factories. Thj
breakfast food makers flock together,
as witness Battle Creek, Mieh.
The new factory. Porter says, will
employ more than 1000 men and wo

Wool Trade Holds ,
With Strong Tone
Contracting Is Hliunned by Interior
Sheepmen Because It Favors
the Big Buyer.
Considerable strength continues in
the wool trade at Pacific northwest
points, but little contracting is shown.
Sheepmen are now generally adverse
to contracting their fleece, because
they realize that as fit general rulo
pont ractine i alwavs one-sided and
favors the big buyer. That being the
case, holders of wool are willing to
wait until shearing is over before of
fering their supplies.
The Mituatlon generally still ad
mits of the payment of from last
year's prices to 2c above. In the Wil
lamette vallev at least last year's val
ues are- available. The fact that no
special advance is being offered for
valley wool at this time over the 19U
figures is because valley purchases
last year were made with free trade
in prospect, therefore the present sit
uation lias been somewhat discounted,
although the stronger foreign market
i n hitr wtirnulant.
The situation in the valley admits
of the payment of luc to lsc a pouno.

small supply of stocks in sight and

The entire stock market was firm
and sharnlv higher for the day. Shorts
were active in their covering operations.
Distributors Would
Do Export Trading
Opening of Portland Office Said
to Be Favorably Considered;
Would Use the Canal.
That the North Pacific Fruit Dis-

from officials of the organization. It
Is stated that with a Portland office.
the Distributors would be in a position
to secure many benefits from the open

that the organization can successfully

Export Headquarters Here."
Hood River, Or., March SI. H. F.
Davidson, president of the North Pa
clfic I-'ruit Distributors, and Wilmer
Sieg, sales manager of the Hood River
Applegrowers' association, and one of
the sales managers of the Distributors,
are contemplating a tour of the fruit
growing districts of the northwest, for
the purpose -of meeting the growers
and associations to consider the mat
ter of fruit shipments for the coming
season. A special canvass of the fruit
growing districts of Oregon and Wash
ington will be made relative to the
opening of an office for the Distribu
tors in Portland in time to handle this
year's apple crop. Mr. Davidson said:
"J. H. Robbins, general manager of
the North Pacific Fruit Distributors;
H. C Sampson, secretary treasurer;
Wilmer Sieg, sales manager, and my
self, have just spent, several days in
Portland, looking over the situation and
considering the advisability of opening
an office in that city for the North
Pacific Fruit Distributors.
"We were greatly encouraged to es
tablish an office there by all of the
Portland business interests with which
we riiKcllRKerl the matter- artrt ac it qt
pears to us at this time the advisability
01 opening an orrice tnere depends
soieiy on tne amount or tonnage tnat
the growers of western Oregon and
Washington desire to have the Distrib
utors handle for them this season.
"After our meetings with the grow
ers of these sections. Mr. Sieg and
myself, expect to report our conclu
sions to the board of trustees of the
Distributors that will meet in Spokane
n jviay, anu il tne Doara aeems it ad
visable to open a Portland office, we
expect to begin business from this end
n July or August.
With a Portland office we will be
n much better position to hnnrtlo tha
traffic that will go by way of Panama
The opening of this waterway should
have a large Influence in the manner in
wnicn tne iruit of tne Pacific north
west is to be marketed in the future,
and should prove a great advantage to
this coast. In this connection I desire
to state tnat the Portland Commercial
club has acted very wisely in the se
lection of C. A. Malboeuf, as general
manager of the Fruitgrowers' Trans
portation league.
"Mr. Malboeuf is doing an inestim
able service for the fruit industry of
me iiuimwcBi it-iaiive 10 export possi
bilities, rates, tonnage and available
markets. He has already accumulated
a vast fund of Information that will
aid very materially in the marketing
of 4.he future fruit crops of the north
west fruit districts. The field in which
mr. jiaiDoeur is laboring is a very
wide and important one. and the entire
fruit industry will feel the beneficial
results of his work, and the shipping
concerns will be greatly aided by his
efforts.

The market for poor grade cattle
was somewhat better at North Port
land during the last 24 hours, and
prices were fractionally better, but
for top stuff, while the situation was
slightly improved, the price list wa

It was the small outside buyer who
bid up the price of poor to ordinary
cattle during the last 24 hours a
North Portland. These interests want
ed the stuff and were therefore forced
to pay more for it than the big kill
ers were wining to give,
There were five loads of Montana
stuff on the market at the oDeninar o

The market continues to show an ag
gressive, steady tone, with prices con
tinued as during the last week.
The general mutton situation
throughout the country continues of
good character, with little change in
prices.
At Chicago there was a strong tone
for mutton today.
Kansas City mutton market was
strong at an advance of 15c.
Omaha mutton ruled slow but
steady to higher for the day.
Assistant District Forecaster Mac
kenzie has just returned from a trip
to Morrow county and reports that
conditions among stock are fine.

summer range was very light during
the winter, and fear is felt that the
summer feed will be short and dry.
This alarm is needless: for. since the
ranges are fairly well restored and
with our regular and frequent rains,
which no other section of the north
west enjoys, there will be little short
