CHEESE SITUATION
IS MIXED;
IN LINE WITH EAST
Conditions In Oregon Districts Are
Not Settled Coos Bay Section Ac
cused of Favoring California With
a Lower Price Range.
Diseased Fruit a
Menace Here
Inspector Walker Says Practice or
Selling Not to Be Tolerated.
The cheese trade is rather mixed as
to character. Report Indicate that
Tillamook Is today not offering Its sup
plies freely at the lower prices, but this
is denied by those who are close In
touch with the selling organization
there.
Considerable comment is heard here
regarding the discrimination against
Portland trade by the Coos Bay in
terests. California has for some time
been buying cheese from that section at
lower prices than the makers of the Bay
section were willing to sell Portland
and even consignments were made to
California.
On the basis of the new prices named
by Tlllkmook and Coos Bay recently the
markets here are In line with those rul
ing In the big nrpcbielng sections of the
east. A report frofri -Fond Du Lac, Wis.,
.says trading Is riuite active with a good
volume of business reported. Twins

BUTTER
Found.
California 2rt
Oregon 4 760
By Hjmaa II. Cohen
According to a statement made by
Fruit Inspector Walker of Multnomah
county, most of the diseased fruit found
by officials in this trade comes not from
the commercial orchards, . but from the
neighborhood trees that have liad prac
tically nt care.
That It Is a violation of the law for
grocers or anyone else to sell Infected or
diseased fruits in this state is the offi
cial notice given offenders by the official.
"The individual grower does not rea
lize," says Inspector Walker, "that an
average of perhaps 00 to 60 boxes of fruit
is condemned on the Portland market
each day. Of this a very small amount
cornea from Multnomah county. This re
port does not indicate that Multnomah
county has a better quality of fruit. It
is a noticeable fact that a large per cent
of Infected apples found In grocery stores
in the suburban districts comes from
homes where few trees are kept and
little or no care taken of them. Retail
ers accept this fruit against their wishes
in order to hold the trade of such people
Commercial growers of fruit in this
county have come to realize that it pays
to sort their fruit before placing it upon
the market.
"In many cases Portland is being used
as a dumping ground in order to realize
some value for fruit which is unfit for
eastern shipment. This practice must
stop, otherwise losses will continue, as
all fruit infected will be oiled where ever
found."

Hood River Has
Its Greatest Crop
Of Apples in 1919
Hood River. Sept. 26. Careful observers here
now state that the revised .estimate of the apple
crop of Hood River valley, which reduced the
total from 2.000,000 boxes to 1,500,000 boxes,
will prove to be inaccurate, and assert that the
former estimate will prove to be correct. It is
stated that many orchardists have been content
to roughly ettimate their crop at sHghtly above
that of laf.t year, whereas there is an increase
of more than 50 per cent.
Already there is a marked ahortage of pickers,
and although large numbers are arriving dally,
yet they are not in sufficient numbers to meet
even the present demand. In about two weeks
picking of the favorite varieties will be in full
swing, and a very large number of pickers and
packers will be required to handle the crop.
About the only handicap the grower now
lias to face is a serious shortage of boxes. Al
though he is willing to pay the price, which in
a few months has advanced from 13c to 26c, he
cannot obtain a supply that will nearly meet hi
requirement-!.
On July 2 The Journal estimated the Hood
River apply crop at approximately 2.000,000
boxes, the greatest known for that section. The
estate is new generally accepted.

Everywhere throughout the country a

and prices In general are showing
losses with supplier et leading distrib
uting- points greater than present re
quirements. Little or no disposition is
shown among: traders to speculate, as
all believe that prices will rule still
lower within the immediate future.
Marketing of potasnes is increasing in all
sections. In the local market there is now
an abundance, in fact a surplus of potatoes,
and prices are off another 25c a cental gen
erally. While oorasionsl offers as high as $2
per cental country points is shown, little busi
ness is passing above $1.75 at the moment.
while the selling price along the wholesale way
for the day is no higher than $2.50, and a
large per cent of the stock is being offered down
to (2.25. This is for best available quality.

Christmas to
Show Shortage
In Candy Supply
Christmas candles will probably be
coBspieaovs bjr their absence tbls
season.
Word Is given eat by the trade that
practically all the candy manufac
turers are sold ont of their prospec
tive manufacture of holiday randies
and that It will be practically im
possible to secure stock on additional
orders.
Two reasons arc assigned for the
shortage of candles, aside from the
nnnsnal demand. The shortage of
sugar Is the big factor, bnt there Is
also a shortage of labor.

Quick Recovery Is
Made of Corn Loss
By Joseph P. Prltchard
Chicago. Sept 2. (I. N. S.) Corn closed
4 o to T e lower for deferred futures and 5 'A e
lower for the September. Weakness in the
latter and in the cash market depressed the
more deferred deliveries.
Oats finished unchanged to He hieher.
There was no pressure on the market iu the
late trade and covering by shorts gave the
market a strong undertone. Provisions clcjed
sharply higher on covering by shorts and bay
ing by brokers supposed to - represent packing
interests.
, t
Chicago. Sept. 20. (I. N. 8.) Corn
started 4 1 'A c lower today. Commission
houses sold during the early hours but later
overnight short bought enough to absorb the
offerings and values recovered. The volume of
businens was not large.
Otts started He lower to H higher. There
was a mixed commission house trading. Only
.small quantities were traded in and there ap
peared a disposition to await developments.

ton market oiiened strong today with first price
80 to 57 points higher, due to heavy trade buy
ing for Japauese account, the better foreign
erchange situation, improved steel strike ' news
and strong Liverpool cables. At the end of the
first 15 minutes the list held firm, with price
45 point net higher.
The advance was checked in the late dealings
by heavy realizing and southern selling. The
close was steady at a net advance of 105 to 125
point. -
