MEAT TRADE GOES
TO HIGH RECORD
WORLD'S MARKET
Europe Purchases Heavy Supplies
In America During the Week
Foreign Crop Estimates Are Ke-
v dated Almost Everf Day.
STEL COMMON AGAIN
IS AT HIGH MARK ON
NEW YORK MARKET
Previous High Records Are Broken
During the Day's Trading Ac-
tive Buying Orders Send Spe
cialties? generally Higher.
The world is short of wheat. The
vwk'i' transactions In the various
markets Indicated this quite clearly.
The huge wheat crop that Kurope was
so much Inclined to talk about early
in the aeaaon has dwindled until pre
vailing: figures for theumut are about
' the smallest for many years. Kvery
day recently there has been a gradual
lowering of European wheat crop es
timate. New high price records were estab-
ilshed for the season to date in the
'ortland market during the week and
l similar trend wan shown In the Chl
, cago trado. Kurope was disposed' at
times to "buck" the advances on this
.-side of the pond but Invariably ex
porters' were forced to pay the price
demanded. In fact, foreign takings of
American wheat during the last 10
days have established a high record.
At intervals .there has naturally
"been a showing of easiness in wheat
trade at most points during, the week.
- None were scared by this fact. The
' exporters who had purchased grain at
higher prices did not rush pell-mell
Into the selling ring. No such thin.
?'hey realized full well that the statis
Ical position of the market was gain
ing strength every day. instead of los
ing it. Thev realized that after all
Chicago Is a- "petr-iilative market and
, Option prices there hob up and down
with the changing whims of soecula
tlve Interests. The big speculators
were not scared: thev .simply were
quietly taking up the wbeat that the,
mall scared traders were dumping
overboard.
Dardanelles Cob Up.
As one Chicago, writer expressed It.
"It's a long ways to the Dardanelles
and the fact that some of the Inter
ested parties have porwisted in bring
ing In the straits as a market factor
. really means nothing except a desire
on the part of these trndors to scare
;the other fellow into selling and then
gobbling up his wheat. li' log eat
og in the wheat market those days
and If the' hears can bring forth a
. bearish rumor to aid their cause, they
' are going to do It.
The fact of the matter Is that it is
not lfkly that the Tardunelles will
have much conslrl oration In tho wheat
trade of the world, even though they
are opened. At least the effect will he
a, passing' one for the reason that- the
Russian wheat crop is not nearly as
heavy as norma) and it would take a
long time for the wheat to "get into
the world's trade.
Coarse Grains Are "Firm.
The mkrket for coarse grains re
tains liberal strength for the week's
trading. Barley market showed the
effects of a smaller ciop and a wider
demand and values were accordingly
lifted rather liberally.- On the other
hand, the oats trade held well de'spita
. the rather free Offering of supplies by
the Willamette valley, where the crop

New York, Sept. 9. The New York
Evening Sun financial review today
aays:
Active buying orders, both for the
account of Wall street and the public
were effective In. carrying prices to
higher levels In today's early opera
tions, while reactions In subsequent
dealings were not important or sugges
tive of anything beyond realizing sales
and speculative adjustment incident
to the end of the week.
New high records again were re
ported In various Issues notably United
Stales steel. Utah copper, Atlantic gulf
and West Indies and International
paper common, the latter advancing
more than three points in the initial
operations. fcHreet gossip reflected no
lulling ol'f in bullish sentiment.
Predictions were made of mater
ially higher prices next week, but in
some rjuarters there was a disposition
to look for moderate reactions on
any decided upward movement at the
opening on Won day. Outside of read
ing business was quiet in rails, while
the equipment issues to a great extent
were neglected.
The specialties were strong, the ad
vance In International Paper for in

Top Pickers at work in a trelllsed hop yard. This is one of the largest yards on the Pacific coast.
Bottom Sacking hops.
By William Trull.
More bales 6t bops are raised in
Oregon than In any -of the other hop
raising states. New York, Wisconsin,
Minnesota. Washington and Califor
nia. Wllconsin and Minnesota raised
only a few thousand bales In 1910;
Oregon, 125,000; California. 115.000;
Washington, 45,000; and. New York
only 35.000, .
Hop cultivation in the United States
showed great changes during the last
decade of the twentieth century. Dur
ing the early portion of that period
New York was the chief hop growing
state of the union, but toward the
end a great interest in hop throwing
was shown on the Pacific coasi.
The hop is a climbing vine with
rough stems and heartshaped contain
ing three to seven lobed berries. The
plstilate flowers are the hop of com
merce used mainly in Vhe manufacture
of beer.
Hop culture, however. Is not genera)
like the culture of cereals, but is con
fined to certain areas comparatively
limited in extent, which, on account
of the noil and climatic conditions,
are suited to the production of the
crop.
The hop may be frown on a va
riety of soils, Dut it always requires
a well drained subsoil. It succeeds
best on a moist, sandy loam. The
conditions of the soil are generally
considered the most Important factor
in determining the quality of th
crop. The hop is propagated by
cuttings made from underground
stems, which the plant sends out near
the surface of the ground. The cut
tings are made and set out in the
spring.
In New York, Wisconsin and Minne
sota the vines are trained on poles,
but on the Pacific coast they are
trained on wire trellises as well as
poles. The former method is gradu
ally eliminating tne system 01 train
ins? nn poles.
. Hod picking machines nave been
tried on the Pacific coast, but these
are not a success. Therefore most
of thl crop is harvested by hand.
From 1000 to 8000 pounds of hops
are generally grown per acre.
Hops are picked into large baskets,
dumped Into gunny sacks and hauled
on flat wagons to the dryer.

ward Hanrood, Junior member of his
father's mining: company, passed

general conditions in Abiaka are the

Near Cordova, three new canneries
have been established In the new in

canneries has already contracted for
the disposal of the HIT pack, and
three more plants will be erected for
next season. The bays around the dis

supply that they receive daily from

Walla Walla, Wash., Sept. 9. With
the liftlnr of the railroad embargo on
freight shipments, the great offensive
against the lowly prune was launched
again the first of this week with re
newed vigor, and present indications
are that the butt of the boarding house
Joke soon will be forced to surrender.
Fruit pickers and packers are much
in demand in the orchards now, cue
to the fact that many of the young
people who formerly were employed
are in school now and unable to assist
in handling the crop. However, or
chardlsts say the crop will' be gar
nered without difficulty, and that lit
tle or no loss will result from the sev
eral days' tieup which resulted from
the threatened railroad strike.

of the above company, who furnished
the seed and have had other repre
sentatives here from time to lime
throughout the season.
Mr. Nibley declared during an earl
ier visit, that there was ample room
for several large factories in the
Klamath district and that there was
a likelihood of its becoming a great
center of the beet raising industry.
His company contracts for beets five
years anead at 95 per ton, furnishes
money for seed and advances funds to
farmers for help in cultivating and
harvesting tne crop. Beven tnou
sand acres of beets must be grown by
farmers here the first year if the
factory is installed.
Soil and climatic conditions hive

Wool Is Irregular;
Americans Turn to
South America
Boston, Mass., Sept 9. Trad'ng In
the local wool market has been Irreg
ular during the week, yet several lead
ing houses report a fair volume sold,
despite the holiday and other adverse
factors. The period of quiet causes
dealers no anxiety. Sales Indicate a
slowly broadening demand for th new
territory wools. Available supplies of
foreign combing wools are much re
duced and prices at Brisbane are con
siderably above the parity of this
market, but Americans cannot Kel any.
They have already turned their at
tention to South America, but there
they have found great difficulty in
buying oiw contracts, owing to growers'
high idea on values. Late advices
from both. Buenos Aires and Monte
video state that prices are hardening,
with competition keener ftorn all
sources. . . '
One houes reports sales of nearljr

Saturday evening with an electrical
prelude, will prove of much value to
this section, aa it - has thoroughly
washed all debris and dirt from the
native grasses that grow on the bot

source will be much larger and of

Japan Is Becoming
A Leading Country
Eaa Redeemed Japanese Bonds and
Bays Tnose of Allies; All Business
Makes Hew Prosperity ateoords.
Tokio, Sept, 9. Japan is probably
the most prosperous country In the
world at present. Her war munition I
trade, compared with that of the Unit- j
ed States, is small In total value, but!
every branch of business in Japan Is
making new records of prosperity. i
Financially, Japan was never such a
power in the world before. She has re
deemed large quantities of Japanese
bonds held in Great Britain and
France and is preparing to 'take up
$50,000,000 worth of British treasury
bonds in the United States to help her
ally, and, incidentally, to obtain the
five or perhaps six per cent which
England will pay in place of the one
and half per cent paid by the Japanese
federal banks.
Her gold reserve is now about $350,
000,000. Money is abundant' In Tokio
and th result Is reflected in the hitfh
prices and activity of the Tokio stock
exchange. A Japanese loan to China
is talked of. Negotiations are in prog
ress for a loan to Russia of $200,000,
600. Japan, from being fa. borrowing
is becoming a lending country.

Man Brutally Beats
Three-Year-Old Boy
rather Asserts He Tsed Bun Whip
On Wee Boy Because Be Disobeyed
Is rtaed $50.
. New Tork, Sept. 9. Leslie H.
Stowe Is a man of substance, a pros
perous publlo accountant living in his
own handsome house in Passaic,
N. J.
He is the father of a 8-year-old
.baby and owns a six-foot bull whip.
In the Passalo city court Stowe was
charged before Judge Thomas P. Coe
tello with having employed the whip
to inflict a barbarous lashing upon
his baby.
Indignant neighbors pressed the
charge. They testified that on Sun
day afternoon the little fellow, trun
dling his toy wagon, had toddled to
the bank of a small brook that runs
about half a block from his parents'
housex
A few minutes later Stowe discov
ered his absence and went after him
with the bull whip.
The baby was leaning over a low
rait his eyes fascinated by the racing
water, his lips trying to imitate the
babble. Without warning, neighbors
declared, bis father applied the whip.
Again and again he lashed the child's
legs.
Screaming with pain and fear, the
little one fell to the ground. The
youngster's outcry brought spectators
from all over the neighborhood. They
saw the baby pick himself up
and start for home, and they told
Judge Costello that Stowe continued
slashing him all the way to the house,
It was on the complaint of eyewit
nesses that Stowe was arrested.
His defense was that he had for
bidden the child to go near the brook.
He said he wanted to teach him
obedience.
Judge Costello' fined Stowe 950.
Stowe drew a check for the amount
and paid the fine.

Florida Is Agitating.
Division of State
Difference in Climate aad Character of ..
People Bring to Life Again Talk of
Permiag Hew. Commonwealth. - .
Orlando, Fla.. Bept. 9. (1. N. 0.) :
Because of differences of climate ahA
the character of the people between
north and south Florida, agitation has ' '
been started to divide the state by 'a
line running along the 29th parallel
Another suggested division line Is the -Suanee
river, some 26 miles north of
the 29th parallel. The northern por
tion would contain about 27,000 square '
miles, a little larger than West-Virginia
snd larger than Vermont, New.
Hampshire and New Jersey together'. ;
South of the 29th parallel there is
something like 41,000 square miles,
slightly more than Ohio and a little
less than Tennessee. 1
It has been proposed to name the
new state, the northern half of Florida,
Jefferson, in honor of Thomas Jeffer
son, while the south half-would retain
the name of Florida. ; ; . .
The suggestion for the division of
the state into two ststes was made as ; :
early as 1914, but the matter was
dropped. Recently the state has been
thrown into a turmoil over the selec
tion of a Democratic candidate for
governor. The northern part of the;
state is pulling in one direction, and
the other part In another. The north- r
ern part of the state is inclined to
prohibition, while the southern part
with Key West and Tampa, would ap
parently prefer to retain the old order '
of things.
While no formal campaign has teen
launched looking to creating sentiment ;
for a division of the state, the pros
pects are that one will be tinder way
before many months. . a
