Portland Consumers Paying More

Portland consumers are paying 2 to
3 cents a pound more for Jheir beef than
in ' any of the leading markets of the
United States, notwithstanding the fact
that the price of beef on the hoof in the
stockyards at North Portland is several
cents a pound lower than in Borne of the
eastern centers.
The wholesale price of best steer beef
In the Portland market .stands at 25
cents a pouna. ai eastern centers wnere
the top grade consists entirely of corn
fed stock, which costs considerably more
to raise, the prices are materially lower
than this. Boston is asking 22 Vi cents
a pound for its best beef at wholesale
New York is asking from 23 to 23 tt
cents a pound, Philadelphia is quoting
the same class of meet at 24 cents and
even Los Angeles is not asking above
20 I cents a pound for similar stock.
Cheaper la Chicago
The most wonderful part of this show
ing, wherein the Portland consumer is
"getting his" Is that at Chicago the best
steers sell In the stockyards at $17.50
per hundred pounds, after a considerable
slump in value only a half doren ani

has been noted that the same interests

For instance, there were very sham

The same condition applies to hogs and

chines have been destroyed.
This explains the cessation of tha
raids on London and Paris the enemy
being forced to withdraw night pilots for
use in day flying and observation on tha
fighting front. The Germans also re
quire their huge long distance bombing
machines for bombing near tha front
because they have lost so many of the
regulation small type.
It is no secret that the British avla
tion service saved the situation in the
early crucial days of ths drive when Von
Htndenburg flung 40 divisions against
the British Fifth army, which had only
14 divisions.
Ths German aviation service suffered
tremendous losses trying to gain su
premacy of" true air as low flying British
machines attacked and broke up German
communication and supply trains with
machine gun fire and bombed newly con
strutted railway centers, thus delaying
the German advance.
British, French and American aviators
are bringing down enemy machines at
tha average rate of 45 a day and anti
aircraft guns are gathering a big toll.

ber of machines with rifle fire. Most of
the hostile machines downed ar two
