Cohen That Oregon will be pushed to the very front rank as a potato producing election as a result of the heavy buying of lands In the- central portion of the tats by leading CaHfomla growers. Is now foreseen by the trade generally. Statements that first appeared regard ing the Bale of the lands in the Red-mond-Prinevllle section to California in terests, Indicated that the total yalue was about $50,000, but those In the lead of the venture say that the outlay is closer to 200,000. Central Oregon has come to the front rank as a quality potato producer and the action of the California growers in making huge purchases of land in that district means that others will follow. Within a few years it Is expected that Central Oregon will produce as many potatoes as the entire state of Oregon Is growing at this time. One good result will come from the Invasion of Oregon by the California growers. They will show the natives how to grow potatoes and will make the selection of seed one of the chief factors. The seed proposition has been almost entirely neglected In this state to date, resulting in deteriorating qual ity. Those desiring special information regarding any market should write the market editor Oregon Journal, enclosing stamp for reply. Buyers Competing For Quality Turk in In Roseburg Section Roeburg. No 21 The turkey market opened in this city Wednesday for the Thank--giving trade. Buyer are invading the local field from Seattle. Portland' and flan, Fran cisco. The Seattle buyers are reiTgerntaiivea of the Independent Packing company and the Pacific Coast Meat company. They have estab lished headquarter here and are the strongest buyers in the market. t.arge banners were placed all over the city, stating that the high est cash prices would be paid for the lncsl birds. A few growers brought in birds this afternoon, but the majority will he markets! Tliurnlay and Friday. The market opened for top birds at 40c and up. The Ho?eburg product is the choice of th Paci'ic coest, according to F. H. felman ai Seattle, who has been a buyer in the local market for the last eight years. For font rea.on or other, the Oregon birds are of a much better quality than the Washington ami Idaho turkey, and bring a better price on the market.. Whether it is the feed or range or the. climate he wan unable to state. The local birds are in fine condition. Factory Closing Is Corn Bear Factor By Joseph Prltehard Chicago, Nov. 21. (I N. 8.)

It is expected that the sea son on these two streams will be terminated by the canners before the law arbitrarily stops It on December 10.

The public is warned against the pur chase of frosted apples of which Hood River and 6ther Columbia river sec tions are now freely offering to this market. The trade is aghast at the nerve of the producers in trying to un load this unfit stock on the consumer and the leading houses of Front street assert they will have nothing whatever to do with such offerings. Several carloads of this frosen stock have been offered to the trade here and one inde Ienclent handler is said to have- decided to take bold. The apples are already beginning to show the effect of the freeaa and are fast rotting. In order to save themselves from loss some of" the growers are trying to market this stock independent of their regular association and the public is warned to be careful in its purchases. Such action on the part of growers is de precated by the general trade as well as by many producers because of the adverse effect it will have upon the local market. This stock cannot be shipped any long distance, therefore Portland is considered the logical place to dump It upon an unsuspecting public. For good apples the local market is active with prices showing practically no change. Downward Slide Of Stock Values After the Opening New York, No. 21. (1. N. S.) The stock market closed weak today.

An order to self straight flour in the smaller sacks to the public was an nounced by Director Barnes several days ago in The Journal but no action will be taken here until Vice President Houser, In charge of zone 10, makes his investigation. Mr. Houser has sent out the following an nouncement: Wheat Director Julius Barnes yesterday put the solution of one phase of the high cost of liv ing directly ud to the consumer, by making it pos sible for the purchaser of flour to decide for himelf whether he will continue to pay fancy prices for special brands or buy at a lower price pure straieht flour made from the finest wheat. Following a conference of the vice presidents of Ea-trrn xones of the United States Grain corporation with Mr. Barnes, the corporation lias announced that it will offer to the retail trade, particularly in the Urge cities, under it& own brand, standard pure wheat straight flour in 24 and 12 pound packages, at prices wnicn will reflect the grain corporation's buying price of the flour. 1 This will place in the hands of the consumer a cla?s of flour made from the best wheat and used in large quantities before the war by both bakers and the grocery trade. The bread of fered is the regular straight flour. It Ls in no way identified with the war grade flour, a dis tinction which should be fully appreciated by the consumer. Rumors, possibly inspired by over zealous flour salesmen. haTe been current in the mar ket from time to time of an impending flour shortage and the possibility that the use of sub stitutes would be resumed. Mr. Barnes assert that there is no authority whatsoever in the present food regulstions for the reinstatement of the u of substitutes or of war flour. Owing to the short crop of spring wheat this year 203.000.000 bushels against 350 ,000,000 buih els last year certain grades of flour are scarce. HcweTer. figures for the total crop of wheat show 918,000,000 bushels against 917.000,000 bush els last year. In addition to this 57.000,000 bushels of old wheat were carried over. Production of flour has been extremely heavy and for the season ending November 17 has amounted to 52.433.00. barrels against 43. 174.000 barrels la.-t year. Exports have been only about the same as la.it year. Consequently flour stocks are very heavy and amounted to about 50t per cer.t more than a year ago on No vember i. Many reports concerning scarcity of flour and advancing prices for certain grades have reached Mr. Barnes. The facts are that stocks of flour aie very large and production enormous. There fore, the wheat director has determined to place in the hands of the retail trade in the laige cities, particularly, a supply of straight flour from the hnmeme stocks of the grain corporation at nominal prices. This flour will be available in about three weeks in the larger cities. It ia expected the retail price will be about 75o for a 12 pound sack. Broomhall Crop Report Broomhal! cabled: Western Europe Wintry weather prevails over this territory. Farm work is geuerslly well advanced and the agricultural outlook LMn be considered promising. Itaiy Reports from this country mention that, it is the current belief a larger acreage will be put to wheat this season. Spain Seeding conditions lor the new crops have been very favorable and good progress has been made. North Afric Weather favored seeding oper ations and indications can be iavorably re garded. Germany Labor difficulties are reported in sections. These troubles are tending to hinder the harvesting of the potato crop. India Weather lias been fine aod contin ues favorable for the sowing of the new crops. The acreage to wheat will no doubt be quite substantial, aa good conditions continue to pre vail.
