Interior is shown but the volume of purchase i

Price idea of the country regarding the new
crop re.. rather high; in fact so high at thl
time thaia deadlock of riew is likely to be
shown it th start of the regular selling season.
At this time there is only very limited sup
ply of old nay remaining in thl market while
demand is keen sad prices firm. A a rule new
hay pricea open materially lower than old crop
for the reason that th chance of spoilage r I

TRADE
Dealers Unable to Secure Supplies.
Because They Are Not Allowed to
Pay Fishermen Sufficient to In
terest Them in Selling.
Lrring in a section where the finest slson ia
the world ia caught and yet being unable to pur
chase any of this stock at any price, is the sit
uation that the residents here find themnelre in.
Fact of the matter I that the Portland public
today is compelled to eat inferior quality Puget
Sound salmon and pay extreme prices for it
imply because wholesalers are unable to scour
their requirement of th famous Columbia rirer
Chinook.
Wholesalers say that according to the food ad
minist ration's ruling, they cannot pay more than
11 He a pound for Chinook salmon to the fish
ermen. Aa this same price is alao paid on the
rirer by the cannera and th latter 'are estab
lished there, the fiahemea sell only to th
packer, and efforts of the fresb fish trade to
secure supplies sre futile.
For some time small supplies hare been coal
ing front the Cmpqua rirer, but the season there
1 about orer, and practically all the present needs
of uie trade are snppUad by Paget Sound.

PROFIT IS NECE
TO STAY IN BUSINESS
Host of Them Losing Money Accord
ing to Their Reports at Meeting of
Various Interests Efforts to Rem
edy Various Evils.
Better prices are absolutely needed In order
to keep the poultry and sg Industry from co
ins' Into Bankruptcy.
Such was the sentiment of the get-together
meeting held here yesterday at th instance of
the Oregon Poultry Producers' association. At
tending th meeting were representatives of the
Oregon Agricultaral eolhtge, the state of Ore
gon, th United Bute government. Front street
wholesaler and newspaper man.
While some of tb reports Indicated that
poultry men received a small profit for their
work, nrftet of the experiences were that egg
cost more to prodnc than the faraurs were
getting for supplies.
The meeting waa in charge of C M. Wilcox,
president of th association, wht waa chair
man. H waa assisted by C. S. Brewster, an au
thority on poultry.
Efforts were made to have the meeting go on
record aa favoring the sal of eggs only after
they wr graded, but thla did not meet with
general favor for the reason that it waa pointed
out that under such a system it would be com
paratively easy for the buyer to pay the pro
ducer as low a price aa be wanted. The aD-
tng or ergs with "rots out waa considered the
most feasible by tome of tb lesdlng buyer, a
thia would give both the buyer and the producer
a aquar deal.
A committee was authorised to meet with
Dairy and Food Commissioner Miekl and As
sistant Food Administrator Newell to formulate
some plan to aid th producers and both offi
cials promised to cooperate to th beat of their
ability.
The bringing of "hot weather" egg rrora
the east, which lowered the price here, waa con
demned generally.

throne, waa a sanest anted by Serbian
fanatics. In revenge for thla crime.
Austria-Hungary tried to make a vaasaJ
atat of Serbia, and thus cava to. the
German militaxtata an opportunity to
brine; about the world conflict which
they had lonf been planning- for the
time when they oould be eure of the dual
monarchy's support aa an active and
willing: ally.
This waa the causa of the war. On
the fourth anniversary of the Archduke
Ftona Ferdlnand'a murder, .the Oertnan
militarists are gathering "together in
anxious conclave because the Oerman
government has been compelled to de
clare to the relchatag that peace cannot
ba won on the battlefield.
German Dritai Shattered
It has required three years and 11
months of fighting to extort this con
tention. Trie vast dreams of pan-
German ambitions that made Inter
national outlawa of the Hohenzollern
warrlora cannot be realized by force of
arms.
The- German military machine waa
ready for Instant brigandage with the
assassination of Frana Ferdinand, and
Is 'wo longer able to keep up Its bold
front of assured victory. The machine
haa failed. Von Kuehlmann, the third
foreign minister whom Germany h
called to subservient office under the
militarists during these last four years,
haa declined to conceal any longer from
the German peopla the fatal defect of
the machine which ia so relentless in- Its
futile sacrifice of Oerman manpower
.w Demorallsatloa Is Next
The four years from Frana Ferdinand
to Von Kuehlmann mark the shattering
of the Hohensollern ambition to rule
the world by force of arms. There
probably will be further painful efforts
by Von Hindenburg to rehabilitate the
reputation of the Oerman army. They
will be In vain.
' Von Kuehlmann'a words are ringing
throughout Germany not to be forgot
ten. They aoon will be ringing In the
ears of the aoldlers, who a 111 then know
that In every future Oerman offensive
they are dying In vain for victory.
Four years after Ferdinand's death
disquiet has gripped Germany. Demor
alization is the next condition the kai
ser must, face unless he publicly aban
dons the worshln of militarism.
