Improvement Is
Needed i n Eggs
Oregon, Stock Is Black Sheep of
the Entire Pacifie Coast.
- 1 By. Hrman H. Cohen '
That egg' producers and dealers of
Oregon" must take instant heed of the
alarming situation In 'the local trade at
thia time has been the conclusion reached
by the trade .generally, v : , i
Losses In eggs as the result df Im
proper oare and marketing have reached
staggering sums in this entire terri
tory. The situation instead of Improv
ing is constantly growing worse.
It can no longer be denied that Ore
gon eggs hawe a coast wide reputation
for poor quaJity., i There Is no doubting
tne zact that some of the eggs marketed
here, are as good as those sold in any
other market, but the volume of : really
good stuff, la so limited that the state
has secured a reputation for poor quality
on a majority of its offerings.
Oregon produces, a surplus (St '. eggs
during most of the season, therefore out
side markets must be found. At this
tinvt eggs from' this state are being
quoted in outside markets about 5 8c
a dozen less than from other . states,
therefore there must be something radi
cally wrong with the offerings to merit
such a discrimination. -
Those desiring special Information, re
garding any market should write the
market editor, enclosing stamp for reply.

oeer stuff was sold within the former range.

EARLT LOSS IIT COTT03T
IS GENERALLY RECOVERED
New York, July 26. (L N. S) Tho cotton
market opened fairly steady at a decline of 6
to 20 points, the easier ruling being influenced
by further liquidation on long stuff and selling
by Liverpool, promoted by bearish week-end fig
ures and more favorable weather prospects.
On the other band the promise of an early set
tlement of the strike of the marine workers, bull
ish crop advices published by the local newspa
pers ' and reports that Gteat terftain would es
tablish largo credits here fori the purchase of
cotton, led to pronounced buying after the
start which resulted in the recovery of the most
initial loss. ' ' . -.:, ;-
Pricee eased off again in the late dealings on
renewed liquidation and selling taom foreign
and southern sources. The close was steady
unchanged to 25 points 'lower, i .

. Some ' Sales Reported Hioheri
Further increase In activity is shown
la the wool trade ail over the country.
Aa forecast in these reports recently,
the recent alleged weakness' and slug

more of a desire on the part of cer
tain buying - interests than an actual
market condition. ?f 1 "

fleece trade is real la the tact that
manufacturers are scouring the entire
country: for supplies - and in some in
stances are paying further:, fractional

. The improvement in the easterB ' trade has
been marked during the last week and instead
of the situation being bearish aa some . recent
reports from Boston have indie tad, the market
is sufficiently strong for some amies to be made

AUV WHEAT HAS GUARANTEE
The trade hers at well as the XT ft.
Grata Corpora Uoa was somewhat ajaased
at the statement by D. A. WhIU la the
Salem Josraal to the effect that i the
goveraateat has aot sitablltked a yrlee
for WlUasietts Taney wheat. This ; is
entirely aa error, as ail American wheat
has a' raaraateed price aad for valley
wheat' the price will be exactly the
same as for others of the same grade
wbesi delivered at Portland, which is the
baste point, The, report that Salem is
or will be a basle polat Is f oaaded oa
error, aeeordlag to officials.
There promises to be one of the great
est scrambles for coarse " grains .and
especially barley, within the immediate
future that the Pacific Northwest trade
has known for many a day. '
Irrespective of the $4 a ton advance
in the price of barley on the Portland
Merchants' exchange on Friday, with
sales at the rise, prevailing prices are
considered cheap. While the advance
scared some of the trade, still such a
movement could have been expected in
viw of the great shortage in the 1019
acreage all through the Pacific coast
states. That such a movement of prices
bas been forecast, is known to all read
ers of The Journal. V - - v
Some day the local trade is going to awaken
to the fact that there ia little barley to be bad
and that the demand ia somewhat greater thaa
the normal. Whea that time srrivaa the scram
ble will be on in earnest and there, is going to
be acme fireworks display in prices.
Naturally oats are feeling some effect of the
strength in the berley trade.

Issue of $100,000,000 Cumu
lative Preferred to Take Care
of Refinancing Projegt.
New York. July tC (TJ, P.) For the
first time In history' the . Standard Oil
company of New Jersey will place its
stock on the New Tork stock exchange,
it was announced here following publi
cation of an announcement last night
that $100,000,000 of cumulative preferred
stock, will be Issued tn a re-flnancing
project. Each holder of common stock
will be. allowed tat purchase one share
ot the new stock for each share of old
stock he holds. It will be offered at
par to conform with, the stock record
as of August 1.5. " V
' Listing of the new stock on the ex
change means that balance sheets will
have to be offered for the publio gase,
according to rules of the . exchange.
This also is a new departure. The cor
poration never haa published a balance
sheet . ' ' ' '
. The money derived from selling the
preferred stock, it is understood, will
be used to carry out plans for develop
ment in foreign countries. These plane,
made during the war, it is understood,
also wUl carry an offer to do buslnesa
on the basis of 60 or 90 day credit a.
Former rules of the company provided
for payments in 30 days. Extension of
greater credit, it was stated, will do
much ' toward stabilising foreign busi
ness. -
Development of Rumanian fields also
probably will be undertaken to a great
extent The company has large hold
ings there. -
The first publio report of the com
pany given out late yesterday shows
that in 1912 the year following dissolu
tion of the former "trust," nst earn
ings of the company were $35,107,387.
Last year the tout was $57,283,784.
Common stock now Is hardly obtain
able at the market price ot nearly $760
a. share. ;. -i
