The Columbia river smelt have played the fishermen a trick that Is seldom turned, much to the disappointment of the latter and to the consumer as well. The fishermen have been searching for smelt with gilnets, and mhlle they were dragging aroand In the river the muddy waters allowed the fish to escape undisturbed into the Cowlitz. Before the trick was discovered the smelt had gone up . the Cowlitz and from last report were fully six miles above Kelso. Now the fishermen are after them with dlpnefs and arrivals from that source are now offering in the market. Dipnet smelt are superior to the ones caught by the gllnetters h ause by the former method' the fish are caught with out Injury while the gllnetters ruin the appearance of the stock. Prices are showing practically no change for the laat few days, but lower prices are expected despite the higher cost of freight and boxes. The following aprires are average onea that consumers are expected to pay at retail stores.

Because of the agitation to sus pend operation of the Grain Corpora tion, milling interests are not inclined to purchase wheat, and nominal quota tions here are at least 5c a bushel lower. Many protests are being made by Pacific Northwest millers and wheat growers, as well as dealers, against the proposed plan to legis late out of existence the Grain Corporation. Such a procedure at this time may mean ruin not only to many growers who still retain supplies, but will force millerS'-to the wall. All lines of grain are marking time in sym pathy with the wheat situation. Pacific coast crop report of the weahter bu reau: Arizona Wheat and barley looking well but acreage greatly diminished. Idaho I raring greater part of month ground was frozen to a depth so that plowing was im possible. Feeding conditions, mainly, quite fa rorable. Washington Although the ground in the win ter wheat area was partly bare part of January, it is beliered there was no material injnry. Oregon Temperatures during January mod erate with alternating freezing and thawing probably injured some winter wheat. Shortage of hay in some Ige.alitie. Some plowing and seeding done in western counties. Cslifornia Ground being prepared for com; most seeding of wheat, barley, oats was completed. Germination and growth slow. Frozen ground in north hindered plowing and seeding.

Lobes ONION MARKET IS NOW QUOTED FIRM There is a sudden rerrersaT of tone In the onion trade, and from extreme stag nation and weakness the market is again firm, with higher prices offering. Out side business is being confirmed. Strenuous efforts were made by tne local trade during the last 24 hours to purchase onions at Willamette valley growing center. Sales were made in carload lota from $4 to $4.50 per cental f. o, b. country points; the higher price now being freely offered. This sudden change In the market and price of onions is doe to the appearance here of an eastern and midwest demand for offerings. The local trade, too. have awakened to the fact that good onions are really scarce, as haa been pointed out in these reports for a number of days. Carload shipments are being started tor out side sections, and it now looks as if there will be a quick cleanup of remaining stock providing growers are willing to let go. Those tliat have superior keeping quality are likely to be offered a further advance. BULGE 15 CORN GIVEX SETBACK LATE IN DAY By Joseph F. Prltthard Chicago. Feb. J 3. 1 1. X. S.)

KATZ, Building Rail Rate Would Put Valley Stock Men Out of Trade Roseburg. Feb. 12. An increase In 'livestock shipping rate in mixed car lots which has re cently been put into effect by the railroad admin istration, is such that it is almost prohibitive for livestock men of Southern Oregon and the Wil lamette valley points. A vigorous protest is being made through the Douglas county farm bnreau. The new tariff rate which wa put into effect January 1 is based on tonnage instead of a flat rate as existed heretofore. It provides t minimum of 17.000 pound for hogs, the rate being 41 e per 100 pounds. A minimum of 24.000 pounds on cattle, with a rate of 29c per 100 pounds. For full earload shipment of either hogs or cattle the rate is not exorbitant although greatly increased. From Southern Oregon and Willamette val ley point the shipments are nearly always in mixed cars, aa the Individual farmers seldom have a full car of either hogs or cattle to ship Tr i in th. mived ehipment that the rate is prohibitive, for instance: To use County Agent C. J. Hurd'a example in a letter addressed to air Hinslmw he save: "I will give you concrete example of a ahiinnent recently made from Itoseburg. This shipment was made bftore we had been advised of the change in tariff. The shipment consisted of 15 hed of cows weighing 7850 pounds and 30 head of hogs weighing 11,200 pounds. Because of the fact that it was a mixed ahipment, it took the highest rate of 41c per hundred, also the highest minimum tonnage of 24.000 pounds, making th freight rale on the shipment from Roseburg to North Portland of 41c. including the extra charges of II 00 for sanding and the war tax makes the total freight charge of $102.38. To compare thU rate with the old rate would cite a shipment that was made from Roseburg on November 22, also a mixed oarload, the total charges for freight nd war tax on this shipment being $71 .59. making an increase in freight rates on a mixed carload of stock from Roseburg to North Portland of $30.79. or 42 per cent.

If the rsr had contained a straight shipment of cattle of 19,050 pounds the freight rate would have been $69.60 plus the war tax and sanding, or $32.78 less than we were compelled to pay. "The fanners had arranged to make another shipment from Rooeburg this week. The ship ment was called off and the bogs that were to be ahtiped here are being butchered, and J sra sure that there will be no mixed shipment from her during the continuance 'of the present -rates. Because of the fact that most of the farmers do not have sufficient numbers of hogs or csttle to make up a car. this will mean that- there will be very little livestock shipped from Douglas county, ami I aru confident the same tiling will apply to Willamette valley points.
