Tba butter market la a Terr firm affair. This locludea not only freshly made stock, oui storage offerings. Stocks of fresh but ter are tha amallest la years at thla period and holdings la storage are Bo limited In thla section at preeeut that purchases from the eaat are more thaa orobabla before the first of the new year. Soma comnlaint haa nam rt.

It Is stated la soma quartera that meat cack.ra ara nn anally wail pleased with theea efforts becanae it mesne a greater call for their product and the downfall of tha dalrr Indnitrr It baa been charged that tha batter man here and elsewhere along tha eoaat have ma nipulated tha prlcea upward to serve selfish purposes, bat the fact remain that Pacific coast batter prices are lower than la any other part of the country. Some bare atated that Portland la tha hlsrbest In tha coaaL Thla la not the caae. Tha Portland printed quotatlooe represent tha actual Bailing price to retaner cartons, while tha prlcea at Seattle are without cartons. Tha price printed at San Francisco is from 2 to Sc a pound low er than retailers csn purchase at; tba values there being tboee paid by jobbers. Tha aama Is trne of tha Los Angeles printed prices and la likewise true rf tbe east. Ia tba big eastern cities cube butter not prints la quot ed around 40 42c a pound to Jobbers, while retailers pay aa advance over this. r Even at the extreme prices being paid for butter, and tba price of butter fat la auto matically advanced with butter, dairymen of tha northwest have been playing a losing fight thla season, because of tba shortened output and the extreme high values for feed and hsy. A careful examination of thla subject has been made by the commercial editor of The Jiaraal and profit to the dairymen are not noticeable, ft tbe use of oleomargarine is further boosted here. It meana still greater losses to the dairy Interests. Tha commercial editor of The Journal would Ilka to bear from dairymen regarding the effort of brokers snd others to substitute oleomargarine for butter and whether there is profit In the dalrr in dustry even at prevailing quotations.

Not over a quarter ot the wheat has yet been shipped out ot thj districts where grown. Unsold oat stocka are still large, but practically the entire barley crop in thla section has been sold for ahlpment east. Apple Crop 9amage4L Hard frosts in tbe past week caused serious dam age to the late apple crop in the north west, authorities estimating- the loss at about $1,600,000. Fully S0O0 car loads were rendered unfit for shipping by the freezing- weather. The total crop in the northwest had been esti mated at 20,000 carloads, and even de ducting the loss, the output will be greater than any former year. Nearly 9000 cars have already been shipped. Low temperatures have also caused some lose to potatoes and onions and deatroyad most of tbe late garden truck. The only other 111 effects of the cold weather have been the ftop) ping of fall grain seeding. On the other hand, retail buelneas In numer ous lines has been materially benefited, Oregon cheeee, which heretofore has found a market only on the Pacific coast, is now being nent to the east, and some of the shipments are des tined for England. All dairy, products are at a high price as the demand has outstripped production.
