GREATEST RISE IS DUE IN RED WITH MARKET F Entire Canned Fish Trade a Mas jot Strength State's Hearing Ponds Prove Uig Success in Tak .ing Care of Small Salmon. . i By Jlj man H. Cohen. ' Ths biggest advance known for many yeara Is now being forecast In the price of Alaska red -salmon for the 1914 pack. While official opening val ues on reds will not be named for some time, there Is a strong probability that the market will open at 11.40 or $1.5 a dozen and the lowest price heard of Is l.!o. Last year Alaska reds opened at' J 1.1 6. The great strength In the market for canned salmon Is Indicated by the fact that Puget Sound sockeye values are within a fraction of the price of the world's best fish the Columbia river chlnooka. This being an off year. In the packing of sockeyes and with the market in extremely firm po sition there Is a belief among the trade that nockeye values will hold around J1.80W1.SO a dozen while last year the bulk of the sales were made at 'f 1.40ft 1.60. Insofar as Columbia river chlnooks are concerned, there is no longer any thing doing In the market for this fish. This Is not due to any lack of appre ciation among the trade the fact that the trade has already placed its order for several times the expected volume of the pack. While at the present time the pack of salmon along the Co lumbia Is about 25 per cent greater than a year ago so far as the canners are concerned, cold storage operations are on a limited scale.' This Is attributed directly to the fact thst the stated hatching scheme and rearing ponds have proven a big success. Inquiry among leading Co lumbia river packers disclosed the fact that at least 85 per cent and In some Instances as high as 1)5 per cent of the ttwh rmiffht thia MAitnn tvplfl'Vi from 1ft to 1H pounds and are therefore not suited to the freezers. This means therefore that the rear ing ponds established by the state three years ago are bringing the-fish TRANSPORTATION White Star Line "ovmnc . ION DON June 20 Foa PARIS July 11, Aug. 8 Auk. 29.

For No, 1 candled stock , sales are reported at 22V423c a dozen generally along the street, al though some Interests have not yet ad vanced their quotations above the 22c mark. , Others still are securing a similar price for case count. The buy ing' price at country points is held at 20c. Receipt of eggs, while fairly liberal in some quarters, 'is somewhat smaller ir. the aggregate. Total arrivals on the ctreet show a decrease of fully 50 per cent within the neriod or 10 days. Quality of present arrivals is fair, although in some quarters complaint Is made that country interests have been holding back their shipments for several weeks with the expectation of securing better prices during the festi val here. Trade interests report a general lack of demand for Chinese eggs in the local market, as everyone seems to be afraid of the little brown stock with the reddish tint. into the river again and that next year a still greater increase is expected. According to observing interests there is plenty of fish in the river at this time but the recent cloudburst in the interior caused the lower river to become muddy several days ago. a condition which will probably con tinue until the first of the week. As long i a the water is muddy, salmon will not come in. TOMATO MARKET IS LOWER. Market for tomatoes Is lower with California stock being offered- down to 11.50(0)1.60 erenerallv todav.

California, has seemingly ignored the warnings given by the state of Oregon that infected potatoes from that state would no longer be allowed for sale here, for additional shipments of "buggy" stock -have been received and one lot of 45 sacks condemned by State Fruit Inspector J. K. Stansberry. "We have warned the California in terests that their infected stock would not be allowed on sale here, and ship Pe,s tneJe have been given plenty it time and opportunity to secure better stuff. "We don't intend to allow the Cali fornians to ruin our growing potato In dustry by dumping their diseased stock on this market, and all such shipments will be condemned and burned in the city crematory- We will not allow the shipments to be sent or diverted to other points, because that would be just as unfair to those sections. If lrfected potatoes are sent 'here from Calllornia or from any other place we tire going to condemn them."

Overbeck & Cooke WHOLESALERS ARE TO FORCE A Receipts Are Heavier and Supplies Are Not Cleaning Up Even at Further Sharp Redaction in For mer Quotations. Receipts of chickens are so heavy at this time that he wholesale trado is unable to take care of offerings. The great avalanche of offerings at this time is due, in a measure, to the ract that the average shipper get3 the idea that the market is going to show a very sensational advance dur ing the holidays, therefore holds back his shipments for a week and then sends forward all his supplies at ence. If this idea entered the mind of one or two shippers it is quite possible mat tne scneme would work. The trouble is that practically all interests view the matter the same way. The result is that the market is famished for awhile and then is glutted with offerings. The present instance is no excep tion to the general rule. The same is true of chickens at Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years, and is true of eggs at- Kaster. Results are gen erally opposite what the shipper be lieves they will be. The successful one ships whenever he has stock; to send forward. Sales of. chickens Were made gen erally down to 14c a pound durtng ths last 24 hours, and even at that price receivers were unable to clean up. One concern is said to have offered a half cent below this figure. Small springs are again down with actual business slow even down to ISc a pound, while large springs are firm up to 25c Stocks Extremely DulHn New York New York, June 12. Stocks were extremely dull today. Trading was limited and the net changes for the day were but a fraction or 'two each j way. There was no decided tendency atiown among the trading. A report from Washington said that no decision would be made by the in terstate commerce commission this week in the request for an advance in freight rates.

UNABLE CHICKEN MOVEMENT HOP PRICES RISE WITH VERMIN REPORT FROM YARDS ABROAD Contract Prices for 1014 Strong at 15c Pound Spot Values Are Stronger and Advanced Crops Estimated Smaller. Great strength Is showing in the market for spot bops as well as fu tures on account of decreased esti mates of the world's crops recently received. English interests are said tc be freely offering 15c here to growers for contracts on the comlns crop and it is stated that an effort was made to contract one lot of 200 bales at Independence at 15V4c. The market ior spot hops is strong with 16VtjC being freely offered and the trade seeking options to take hold as high as 17c. Remaining lots are being held strong. Harris & Lachmund of Salem pur Chased 200 bales from William Bagley of Hillsboro at ISc for the coming crop and the same firm is reported the purchaser of about 1000 bales re cently from growers of the Salem, In dependence and Hillsboro districts. Vermin have appeared in Kurope in great numbers and the crops there are threatened. The California crop is estimated from 80,000 to" 100.000 bales compared with 117,000 a year ago. Oregon estimates run about 20,000 to 20,000 bales less than a year ago, al though Washington crop prospects are about the same aa a year ago. In this state investigation shows that in the bisraest producing sections the number of missing hills is great est. A late New York mail advice says of the general situation: Bales.
