Far the greatest demand ever known from
foreign eouutrl la at present showing in the
canned salmon trade. Order ar well dis
tributed and practically every salmon broker
nlong the Pacific coast baa a handful of
business, which be Is unable to confirm
promptly.
Tbe demand from abroad, which 1 stated
on good authority to be confined almost en
tirely to tbe needs of the European allies, is
not confined to anyott variety or grade.
The run of salmon In th Columbia du--lng
th early part of the week wa come
what smaller than during th previous week,
but the catches srs still by no means un
favorable. A letter -from Euzene J. Kan-ell
of Evcrdlng ic Fxrrell, who is at th Pillar
Kokc cannery owned by the company, says
that the supply of flab comiaat In from the
ocean Is materially Increased and that better
ha nls are expected hit in th week.
Th quality t the present catch la the
Columbia continues favorable, although It is
not as good as the spring run.

credit of Pacific northwest wheat buyers, the

Xxtoroaslag tb svarplas. Noticeable
among the statements of tb leading
lrdustrial and railroad securities of
the country recently has been the fact
that despite th usual and sometime
Increased dividends paid, the com
panics in general are showing a liber
al Increase in their surplus funds. Th
accumulation of surplus is Indicative
of the general desires of the big cor
porations to prepare for whatever
lean business years that may follow.
In few instances this surplus is not
being Invested, but is being kept Intact
In the banks.
Telegraph Compaaies PMsrpwrouav---An
unusual state of prosperity la
shown in recent reports of the various
telegraph companies. The fact of the
matter is that the commercial mes
sage business is now so extremely
heavy that it is impossible to lease
a wire in any section of th country.
While this is specially shown in the
eastern states, the business on the
Pacific coast is already up to th full
capacities of the leading companies.

Industrial Shares Attract. While
some of the "war" babies have shown
rather rapid prica declines recently, it
Is generally appreciated that Indust
rial stocks, ever sine the boom re
sulting from war orders, have dis
placed the rails in speculative favor.
A glance at the character of atock
market trading since the outbreak of
war clearly illustrates this shift of
Interest.
Before the war, dealings In indus
trial stocks ordinarily comprised
slightly less than one half the total
turnover in the New York stock mar
ket. Soon after the resumption of
trading, following the 4 V months'
thutdown of the stock market, the
ratio between these two groups of
stocks was practically equal.
Student Oot Xoans. All but $1$8.4
of the $6028.81 that has been donated
by the friends of education and the
Oregon Agricultural college student
loan fund, has already been placed In
loans according to a recent report of
the college auditor.
Almost $1500 was added to the fund
during the last year, but notwith
standing this fact there will be less
money available for helping students
than usual, thus rendering it impos
sible to assist deserving students who
may need comparatively small sums -
to pay expenses. -
At the beginning of last year, July
1, 1916, there were one hundred four,
outstanding loans, averaging $14.12.
During the year one hundred-nlneteen
loans were made, averaging t$.7.
LouTis paid during the fiscal yesrwen '
sixty, averaging $$.. The number ,
of oatatandlng loans, July 1, 181s Waa
ore hundred-sixty three, averatlng .
36. $J. and totaling tnS4.S5.
Since the college has no scholarship
Its only resource for helping needy
students is the stufent loan fund.
The fund was established by gifts of"'
friends of th Institution both within -and
without the college. ,
