Country holdings of old crop in the Pscliio Northwest are burdensome and there is apparently no demand in sight not withstanding the bidding and movement Of new crop in California. " ' L .:'":' Regarding th crop outlook. Edward L. Well cf the Portland office of th weather bureau says: The for part of th week wa bright and warm, the maximum temperature going above 00 degrees iu many places. Toward th close of the week the weather wa cloudy and moder ately cool, with good rain west of the Cascade mountains and light shower over meet of the remainder of th state. Light frost occurred in a few localities, doing no material damage, high, drying winds were a feature of the weather in localities. Farm ' work progressed rspidly. Aphides hv appeared in small number In Marion county. Winter wheat, oatt and rye are generally promising : thee crop hv . been benefited by rain in western counties but will need more rain in central and eastern counties for proper filling. Winter wheat and oat are heading in most, sec tion. Rom rye is being cut for ensilage and hay. Cntil near th close of the week spring wheat, oato and barley were generally needing rain.. Tl.i condition was relieved In the west ern counties at the close of the week, but drouth continues ever most of the central and eastern counties, and hi many places spring grain is suffering. A' considerable acreage . of corn to being planted. - Early corn is coming up well. Cultivation is ia Trogrese ha Douglas county. The week was generally favorable for fruit Crop. Dropping of prunes continue tn soma counties., but has Ceased in others. Peaches are beine thinned in Lane county. Strawberries con tinue abundant in Donguta county and are rfpeAH ing in Malheur County. Irrigated alfalfa fa growing well. Alfalfa. clover, timothy and vetch have been benefited by rain in western counties, but elsewhere, where not irrigated, need rain. Some hay is being cut in western counties. Pastures have been re vived by rain in western counties, but elsewhere are dryinc rapidly, although there is UU suffi cient feed for stock. Lambing and shearing have been completed in most sections. ; Planting of potatoes made good progress snd moat of the crop ha been planted. Early pota toes have made good growth. The warm weather of the early part of the week wa helpful to gardens, and in western counties they have been helped by rain, but elsewhere mora rain Is needed. - - FLOUR Selling price: Patent. :$11.45 family wheat flour. 311.80; whole wheat flonr, $10.50 010.73; Willamette valley. 811-85; local attsigBt, 811.25011.35; bakers local. $10.90011.10; Montana spring wheat, patent. $11.10; rye flour. $10.00; oat flour, $10.00; graham. $10.16 010.50.

(L N. 8.)- Surpris-' Irly strong cables from Liverpool caused an other upheaval to the cotton market hers at the opening day, when prices Jumped 46 to 60 points over last night's close. There waa abe heavy rebuying on continued rains in the krivato cable attributed the strength of Liverpool to trad and continental buying. After th buying further active purchasing carried prices locally ninety points ahor the previous close, - thus regaining mora than halt the loss of tbe recent high points, partly in anticipation of a bullish statement from the federal department of agriculture next Mon day on the condition of the crop. ,- At the end of the first 20 minutes the msrket wa nervous and unsettled, with quo tations off about 20 points from the best but till 70 point over hvrt night's close. Bulls continued to lighten their lines on the fternocn rally with the result that price de clined 12 to 29 points below Tuesday's closet. Tbe final ton was steady at a net decline of 6 to 22 points. . Furnished by Overbeck A - Cook Co., Board of Trade building: Month Open. High. Low. Close.

Washlnston. May 28. (I. N. S.) That testimony Tuesday had been "generally misconstrued" was asserted by Secretary of the Navy Daniels when he reappeared before the house naval affairs committee today. - "I did not recommend the abandon ment of the : 'greater navy program." he asserted. "I merely recommended that it be not Incorporated In th pres ent appropriation bill and that it be , held In abeyance until we are in a po sition to know our ncede. Completion "as soon as poaaible" of the 1918 building program, which pro istdes for Six. battle cruisers and f out dreadnaughts not yet under way has been recommended to him by the gen eral board of the navy. Secretary Dan iels also informed the . committee. , TEXT OF RECOMME.NDAT10f The recommendation of the generfU . board as presented to the committee was ' as followa : The general board recommende that the authorised battleship program be completed as expeditiously as poaaible on the present lines of development, and that further designs of battleships should depend upon further"; developments tn battleship construction. -. ... -. , ' The general board recommends ta the secretary of the navy that lx battle cruisers be completed as expeditiously as possible, but with additional protec tion, particularly turrets, conning tow ers, magazines and communications, at' the expense of a small reduction in speed." Sixteen dreadnaughts will be kept In commission by the United States navy during- the fiscal year. Rear Admiral J. S. McKean, acting chief of operations, told the committee. These ships will be equally divided between the Atlantic and Pacific fleets. Fifteen of the- ships are. pow In commission and the Tennes see will shortly be. The battleships will have a full complement of 20.88$ men. ADMIRAL GITES HIS HEWS "There la no such thing As A peace time complement," ' said Admiral Mc Kean, explaining the necessity for hav ing the ships fully manned. "It would be better to take our ships out of service than to send them out with small com plements," Admiral McKean said. He declared that no ships were over-crowded to such a degree that the men were uncomfortable. The cost per year per man Is about $1200, the witness stated. The Brltiah sailors stay in the British navy for long enlistments, the witness said, but A "16-year-old boy in our navy will accomplish more than an old British sailor," he added. :, - r ; - Observations roads during the war have not changed the plan of ahlp con struction to any great extent The chief changes will be in protection against mines and torpedoes, he said.
