TEXAS GETS THE TUBER MOTH FROM CALIFORNIA SPUDS

STRAWBERRY MARKB
BREAKS
HERE
m
THE DEMAND SMALL
Offering Are Fairly Increasing but
the Call Is Limited and Lowr
Prices Quickly Forced Chehalia
Sends In a Carload.
Hit intrket for strawberries "broke" daring
the morning, with a rather fair Increase in of
fering end 'a decreased demand. Bales were
made early on the East Bide Farmer' market
. aa blffb ai $1.75 a crate for tbe soft varietlr.
hot those that plaved the part of the early
worm were "stunt;" good and plenty, because
lhe market soon became ilepressed, and even
at SI. DO a rrute many grower were unable to
unload.
Many of the farmers who attend the early
monitaig truillng on the eiint ldt were com
pelled to ilrlve away wllbnut the ale of their
berries. Moat of them rlailed the wboleaale
way and Irh'd to tell at 11.75. but quickly
lowered their price to 11.50, and then were
finding It difficult to unload.
Along Hie. street ale of berrlns were gen
erally reported arotind $1.75 for the beat of
fering, but there was no snap to tbe trade,
tad tonic price shading resulted.
A carload of berries came In from Chehallt
and were offered at lower price to the atreet.
CHEESE SITUATION HOLDS
In totnt quarter there are expectation of
an advance In cheese price Instead of a de
cline, at had been expected by some. The
ttnaller make and the greater demand contribute.
MORE ntAOK FIGS ARRIVE
Arrivals ot rresb black' figs from California
are increasing, aud the demand Is ImproTlug
The local frade la taking to the offerings, aud
best stock It holding well at $1.25 a box.
VEAL MARKET NOW EASIER
While price nre showing practically no
change, the market for Ten! calves is slightly
easier al"ng the street, with somewhat more
liberal offerings. Hogs are generally steady.
Portland Getting
More Wool Supply
Interior Sheepmen Dissatisfied With
Old Method of Selling and
Consign Here.
That Oregon wool growers are not disponed
to sell their fleece for whatever price tbe boy
era art willing to bestow upon them Is Indi
cated by the recent sale at the auction. At
the Hhanlko sales only 5i0.000 pound were
old, with prices ranging from 20 to 23'
pound .
Buyer are said to be offering even more
money for average lots of wool at private
alt than on the anctlon. In tbe hope of forc
ing grower to dltpense with the latter.
Many growers are unwilling to accept either
method of selling and consigning their wools
to the two Port bind warehouse, where the
tock 1 graded and then offered for aale.
It has been demonstrated that several cents
a pound more ha been obtained for grower
who have their wool graded than by selling In
bulk, and many more wool men are tuklng ad
vantage of the local market by choosing the
new method.
While the price offered and paid at Shan
lko were above those of other seasons, still
more was expected, In view of the greater
strength of the markets at leading world's
centers recently.

Texa potato grower are paying pearly for
the Inx Inspection methods In that state; In
fact, no Inspection whatever It known. Tbe
Lone Star atate has already been lnTaded by
the tuber moth and the potato Industry of the
state Is threatened.
Texas has always been a liberal buyer of
California potatoes, and officials of the state
hare come to the conclusion that the tuber
moth was received from there.
Idaho Is again the pioneer to recognize the
dire consequence of the tuber moth, for by the
California embargo it has placed a ban against
tbe shipments of esrly potatoes from Texas
to Its trade.
Tills action has called forth the following
statement by K. F. Stephens, president of the
Idaho state hoard of horticulture:
"A car of early potatoes was shipped from
Womtck aiding ou the Colorado. Culf ac Santa
Fe railroad to Pocatello. Inspection showed a
serious Infestation with the worms of the
potato tuber moth. There was therefore no al
ternative but lo order the destruction of the
entire consignment, over 200 sacks of pota
toes. The Infestation was so serious that 23
worms were tnkrn from two potatoes. Previ
ous to this time it had been claimed and be
lieved that Texaa was free from the tuber
moth. Idaho has In effect a quarantine effec
tive from March 15 to July 1 against early
potatoes shipped directly from California or by
distribution from Washington, Oregon, Utah
and Monunt. June 3 by quarantine order No.
1) the states of Texas and Florida were quar
antined against the importation of Irish po
tatoes. "It seems a hardship to quarantine sgalnst
shipments from an entire state, but hi tbe
a licence of safe method of Inspection in the
states against which a quarantine has been
ltttued ll seemed wise to be sure to guard our
Idaho potato grower against tbl serious pest.
The late number of the Packer, a market
Journal published In Chicago, reports shipment
of 450 car of early potatoes from one point.
Eagle Pas, Texas, and pot a toe moving at' the
rate of 50 carloads dally. The atate board of
horticultural inspection It taking steps to et
lr touch with the proper authorities In the
southern states to get In touch with the pres
ent d'ntributlon of the tuber moth and to take
additional steps If necessity seems to require.
"it Is better to dispense with extra early
potatoes than take the chance of lofectlog our
potato fields."
In the meantime no action has been taken
t7 Oregon state officials to protect the po
tato industry of this state.

July Wheat Is
Weakest Feature
Chlcngo. June 22. (I. N. R. July wheat
wan decidedly weak tt the opening of the pit
trading today. The deferred futures started
slightly under the close and lost fractionally.
Commission houses were prominently on the
buying tide of September wheat. The market
had about an even break on the matter of
crop news and other domestic fsctors. Rul
ing sentiment continued to fayor the boll'
side In the event of war with Mexico.
Cables were about steady. In view of thene
various factors.- the market could Well be de
fined as a trader's at fair J Tbe Broomball
review was tearish, but could hardly he sc.
cepted as authoritative for the actual condi
tion In thla country at present.
Corn and oats were more active today than
they have been for eome time and price for
tho former gmln were Bomewhat irregular at
first, while oat sold more evenly with yester
day's closing range. There was considerable
buying of oat by commission bouses.

planatlon 6f the presenoe ot General -
Pershing's men soar from, their head- '
quarters, and alo of the llg-Utlof at :
Carrlral. together with the taking ot -two
Mexican towns by Tej-shlng, was
asked of the state department by Max- '
lean Ambassador Arredonflo.
Secretary Lansing replied hejhad no
information 0 the subject but would
inquire. i .
Arredondo's information as to the .
Carrizal troubLe tallied with; news
paper accounts springing from Mexi
can sources. He called the attention
of the department to what he regarded
an the lack of prudence in the eart .
of the American commander la going
so far from his headquarters., Arre
dondo held it was unnecessary for the
Americans to make this jmove. His
information, he said, was jdlrefct .:
Session Waa Brief,
Several dead were left oh both ,.
sides, according to the Mexican envoy, ,
while 17 Americans were captured by
Carranglstas.
The session lasted only a short time.
The Dosltlon and understanding Of
instructions to him show t&at thv,
first chief has no Intention of going
to war .with the UnHted State on ac- .
count or either the American note or
the CaVrizal fight. Arredorido be
lieves there is no danger of a break
growing out of diplomatic negotiations,
believing firmly that bpth .govern
ments are dealroua of peace. But both
he and Carrania fear teat further
trouble between the excited command- j
ers of both the American and Mexican
forces may cause a break. ',
Burleson Bees Wilson.
In the turmoil of the present' mill- -
tary situation each side,' Arredondo
believes, views tbe movement of the
other with such suspicion and, warrnth
that further trouble Is to $e feared.
Following a conference; with Presi
dent Wilson early today,' Potmaster
General Burleson stated that this gov
ernment has not yet learned "who !
to blame for the Carrlrai fight b--tween
Carrangista and American
troops. Until that Is determined, he
said, no course of action! can be de
cided upon. i
Although Burleson declared he had
not talked anything but politics with
the president, he and Secretary1 of War
Baker were in the president's office at
the same time, and upon heaving the
hue House Burleson said:
ve not yet been laforrhed who -
Is to blearne for this latrst Mexican
trouble. If it Is learned Uhat Ameri
cans were to blame, tha Americana
precipitated tne right, tneh I thlnK we
hould have the courage :to. admit It.
If the Mexicans were to blarne well,
then, that would be something' else."

Curl, yesterday vetoed the bill passed
by the city council last week appro
priating $Sa0O for the purpose of re
pairing and remodeling an old school
building to be used as a city hall.
The mayor gave as his reasons that
the plan waa not practicable, that the
expense for construction! and main
tenance would be far greater than
estimated, and most important, the
fact that remodeling the Old building
would defeat the purpose ctf the city's
buying the block situated iti the center
of the city to be used for a publla
