The Argentine situation continue, unchanged.
Corn prlcea were slightly higher to steady.
For tbe third time the government has reported
tbe corn crop as being poor. These bullish

This la very bullish aa wheat prioes.
Chicago wheat market started firmer with
a Bfgner price range for the day. Abroad tbe

though Liverpool was Vd lower to Id higher

Farmers are offering less freely. Tbe ear

Cheese Market Is

Rise In Values Here Said to Be
Sore in View of the Advance
in the Eastern Markets.
There li tery strong tone to the cktese
trade all over the country. On the basis of
what competitive markets are quoting Is tbe
east, this market ts safely 2H to Sc a pound
too low for triplets. It would not. therefore.
b4 surprising If there waa a sharp advance In
tbe price of local cheese within the immediate
future, although no immediate . advance la
spoken of.
New York market la quoting 23c for cheeee
f . a. b. there, which mesne Stic a pound laid
down at coast points.
Wisconsin triplets are quoted st a price at

that reason practically no eastern cheeee of
this quality la being sent to tbe coast. The
local product, therefor, haa the entire market

the general situation.

and the tension between the two
oountiies began to relax.
"It Is the hope and belief of the gov.
einment that the presence of the units
of the National Guard, together with
units of the regular army, on the bor
der and In Mexico, has made possible
a peaceful solution of a difficult and
threatening problem."

Basin Is Improving Dun' Re
view says of the Portland situation:
steady improvement, not only in
sentiment but in volume of business
as well, is apparent in many lines. The
trade gain is shown by September bank
clearings of $58,935,037, which were
$12,460,172 larger than those of the
same month last year, and the largest
for any September In the history of
the city.
The grain crops in this territory are
now all harvested and the results are
satisfactory in quantity and quality.
The wheat crop of Oregon is estimated
at 17,000,000 bushels, Washington at
33.000,000 bushels and northern Idaho
at 6,000,000 bushels. Wheat selling
was active during the reoent advance
in prices, but the car shortage in a
measure has checked operations. Water
shipments of wheat from Portland in
September were 128,780 bushels to Cal
ifornia Since the season opened,
hlpments have been 28$, 710 bushels,
all to California, as. against 8,216,761
bushels in the same period last year,
the grain going to Europe, South Af
rica and South America, as well as to
domestic porta California haa also
taken all the flour shipped from Port
land this season. 129,463 barrels, half
the quantity forwarded in the same
period last year. Flour prices have ad
vanced with wheat to thetf7asls, but
the high market has not checked buy-
ng for shipment by rail to the eastern
and southern states and to the Atlantic
seaboard for trans-shipment to Eu
rope. Z, umber Business Handicapped.
Rail lumber business is seriously ham
pered by the car shortage, but lumber
men expect to be partly compensated
by higher prices. Shipments by -water
in September were 6,410,00 feet to Cali
fornia, 62P.000 feet to Alaska and 692.
000 feet t-i the canal zone, and exports
of 4,447,936 feet to South America and

TO DR. YDUNGSON
Rev, A. Allen Heist In Charge
of Pulpit of Rose City Park
M. E, Church,
Rev. A. Allen Heist, pastor of the
Methodist Episcopal church at Shel
don, 111., has been appointed paster of
the Rose City Park Methodist church
to succeed Rev. W. W. Toungson, who
at the recent annual conference of the
church was appointed' by Bishop
Hughes as superintendent for the
Fortland district.
Rev. W. Riley Jeffrey Jr.. pastor of
the Methodist church at Roseburg, wllp
be sent to Sheldon to take the pulpit
being left by Mr. Heist.
Arrangement for this exchange was
completed yesterday by Bishop Hughes
and District Superintendent Youngson.
It is all the more pleasing to the
Methodist officials because Rev. Mr.
Heist Is an "Oregon, boy," and they
are glad to get him back Into his home
conference.
It so happened that Rev. Mr. Heist
was on his way to Portland for a visit
when his name was suggested as s
successor to Dr. Toungson. So the
telegrams that Bishop Hughes and Dr.
Toungson sent to Sheldon for him did
not reach him. The first he knew
that he was being sought for the Rose
City Park church was when he arrived

Farmers to sve Mosey. The Jour ,
nal correspondent at Condon advises
that a most important new. departure '
in the method of handling grain took
place in Condon on Wednesday- when
the first load was handled by tha aew
bulk elevator. This method will rev-;
oluttonise th grain business and wUl
save the farmer many dollars for
saoka Th jute bag had advaneed to c
tuich a high price that a few rich CHI
Ham county farmers got their heads
together and decided not to stand the ,
extortion longer. This elevator was
the outcome of their deliberations. The
structure cost about '$20,000-. and is
probably the forerunner of many more -In
eastern Oregon. The first load was
hauled in by Fred Welse, a Copdon V
farmer, and was quickly placed In th '
tins and the carload was shipped out
in bulk on Thursday morning. The el
evator has only a capacity of sbout
1 60.000.000 bushels but as fast ss it Is '
filled the grain goes from the bins to
the cars. In this manner s constant .
stream of wheat Is kept on the movs. -There
Is no doubt of the success Of the
undertaking and before many more t
seasons pass all th grain In this
country will go to the seaboard in bulk
with a saving of thousands of dollars '
to the wheat farmer. ;

Scarcety of labor In Yakima valley Is
