PORT LAND, THURSDAY, JANUARY 16, 1019. - COUNTRY EGG TRADE SLIDING VERY FAST TOWARD BOTTOM OF LADDER Values Continue to Drop Here With ; Almost Complete Stagnation of , fyiylng Because of Expectations of St HI Lower Figures. . FURTHER DECLINE FORCED LaU In the day It was announced that the hur'ng price of currant receipts Friday had bean placed at BOe dozen by some of the bit f, e. b. firms ; a drop of 3c from Thunday price. Condition of the market tor eggs Is still ex tremely weak along Uw wholesale way. Businessd In a wholesale way may be said to bare stopped .:. altogether and not be very faf from, the truth because only extremely limited sales were shown ' along th street during the last 24 hours. Sales 0 eggs by the regular wholesalers to retailers ha to been practically suspended and titers Is a wide spread in the prices asked. Be tween Jobber and wholesalers there is some busi ness pa-wing but it is entirely confined to lower priced sales. Some business in this, division passed around 65e a dozen for current receipts , but aa a rule the big buyers are not willing to ' pay above 53c a dozen for such offerings during the day and are not over anxious to do business - at that. ' t The big buyers of eggs are really welcoming sharply lower values. In fact they appear to feel that the sootier the market drops to the bottom, the better it will be for all concerned. When the market is dropping from day to day it demoral ise trsde to a very considerable extent, but the moment the low. mark is apparently reached, trade is generally favorable. CAJTSKD MILK PBICKS MIXED Since the taking off of restrictions by the gov ernment, soma of the wholesale grocers are not content to accept former prices and are quoting about lSe advance for canned milk while no changes are announced by makers. CAR OF BLOOD ORASGKS ARRIVES . First full carload of blood oranges of the sea son has. arrived on the local market and was offered during the day. Priced at $3.75 4.25 per box. Regular oranges are unchanged. "POTATO BUYING AfiAIX CEASES Temporary setback in southern prices is causing a slower demand for potatoes for shipment but along1 Front street the market remafns -in good condition. Kales to retailers around $1.75 2.00 per cental. TiO ACTIVITT SHOWS FOB BEANS No activity whatever is showing in the bean trsde, Local wholesale grocers say that they ire selling fewer- beans than for many years past while shippers say that outside trade Is stagnant and Inclined to rule weak. CABBAGE MARKET RATHER SLOW Market for caboage is rather slow along the street. With several carloads of California stock In and with shaded prices for such offerings and with greater local supplies, trade is inclined to weaken. BRIEF SOTE8 OF PRODUCE TRADE Butter and cheese firm at unchanged prices. .Onion tales continue slow; prices stesdy. Poultry market steady with arrivals fair; prices the same. Some ripe bananas are again available. ' Cracker prices slightly easier. ' .

By Hrmun H. Cobea More uniform apple grading: is nec essary, even in. the Pacific Northwest, vhere the pack Is already better than in any other part of the world. Fact of the matter Is that the "C" grade of one section Is better, in most instajices, than the "fancy" of another section, and about aa good as the "extra fancy" of other sections. In fact, some of the local buyers have recently ex pressed the opinion that they would pay as much for the "C" grade of a cer tain variety of apples packed in one section named as they would for the "fancy" , cf another named noted sec tion. This great difference in pack is caus ing much concern and ' trouble in the trade, and a remedy must be found quickly by the growers or their pack marks will really have no considera tion whatever in the trade. .Great strength continues n the apple market, with a dozen buyers apparently in sight for svery carload of fruit that remains unsold in the Pacific Northwest primary markets. In fact, prices con tinue to tend upward in all of the late varieties at primary points, while a steady tone is indicated in the East. Slow Trade Shown At Chicago Opening By Joseph F.

HOG MARKET BUSTS AND A DEMORALIZED TONE IS SHOWING Front Street Getting Far More Than It Is Able to Sell Without a Sharply Lower Value Veal and Beef Continue in Demand. Market for country killed hogs is eompleteely demoralized along Front street with bnze offer ings during the last few days and very little de mand from the retailers. . It la always dog eat dog in the market for country killed stuff. When there is a shortage the price is . boosted to the skies despite the vio lent complaints of the retailer, while there Is a huge slump whenever a surplus appears. At that timeand this speaks of the present mo ment the retailer la in control, and be has little sympathy for anyone who is inclined to name anything except sharply lower values. Sales of country killeed bogs along the street during the but 24 hours were generally at 19 2 Go a pound for exetreme top quality while most of the late business was at the lower mark. Some really good hogs, but a shade under the top hogs that are usually classed aa tops when the market is good sold down to 18c during the 24 hours while heavy staff was dragging at 16c at the same time. Weakness in hog prices has not affected the market for calves and while the bulk of the tops are sold at 22 0 22 H e a pound, a few small lots went at 23o again. Beef market is firm for country killed stuff but goats are neglected. Few mutton or lambs arriving. Sentiment Mixed At Opening of The N..Y. Market CL08E IS UNSETTLED Hew York, Jan. 16. (I. N.

With sew vessels built on the coast now being diverted into other channels instead of being filled with flour from the Pacific Northwest, as had been presumed would be done, millers have practically thrown up their hands. One of the big eat side mills closed down half of its ca pacity during the day. and the other half will be closed by the end of the week unless there is a radical change in the situation. A big west side mill has already closed. Most of the mills of the interior have already closed their plants, and the few remaining ones will cease operating within a day or bo. On Puget Sound the eitua tion is similar to that shown in Portland. It can therefore be seen quite easily that with no more than a nominal amount of mlllstuffs available while the- mills were operating, there is practically nothing available today. One of the bigger mills which makes more rauletuffs than any other In this section, reported during the day that it had less, than one day s operat ing supply on hand, and its plant swat being cloeed. ?
