AIHO BUTTER
Butter market situation here has
Shown surprising strength during the
last few days. Instead of the decline
that was so , generally - forecast by the
trade, values on both prints and cubes
hare been fairly well maintained.
With Northern baring an rather liberal
scsle and th EMtem market till high, cream
er? interest did not make their expected drop
in the price of batter. The weakening of the
Han Francisco trade during the last few dys
baa been an advene Influence, and the South
ern trade will therefore he closely watched.
. That thi and other Northweetem markets
HI be influenced by what haptens in California
during the nest few days, U a certainty. Any
further lot in the South would force values
off hare,
. luat at the moment there ia no nrrlu of
twitter in the local trade, and cube are being
sent out as rapkllj a made.

Consumers are. evidently so full of
smelt they caught mr were forced upon
them by well meaning neighbors that
they nave purchased leas foodstuffs dur
ing the last few days than for an ex
tended period.
Huch an avalanche of fish has never
before been seen by local consumers.
Soma have tried to eat them all, and
have only spoiled their appetites. Oth
ers have thrown large supplies away.
Consumers should take care of these
fish, because they will come in handy
after a while.
They should be carefully put up be
tween layers of salt and when needed
Hhould be washed thoroughly. Some
have made a failure of putting these
fish away, because they 'put water
along with the salt. This is an error.
Only dry salt should be used. The fish
will make their own brtne.

Lack of attention is still apparent in
the market for coarse and medium grade
wool. While woolen mill Interests of
the East appear to have been able to
absorb record profits"' during the last
season, they do not Intend to pass any
of this prosperity on to the grower if
they can help it. While they are taking
hold of fine wools ia the East, there ia
little disposition to purchase other stock.
In the West there is a lull of activity.

Trading has been moderate in territory wools
on hand in the wool market of the United
SUte during the pt few weeka Thi due
primsrily to the fact that there is nothing left
except medium and coaraa wools, all the fine and
half blood stuff liaving been cleaned up long
ago. What few fine wools are arriving on the
market are being readily sold.
Buyers still pay little or no attention to
anything coarser than a three-eighths grade, and
in fact, until recently, there has been very little
three-eiahto moving, but since the s fine and half
blood baa been cleaned out of the market mills
thrcugh necessity have been forced to take the
nut coarser grade and the result it that three
eighth wool is moving more readily.' Quarter
blood still remains the drug, with only small
dribbles moving now and then. We believe that
as oon a. fine and medium wools are in the
market, it will mean that mills will pay no
attention to tho coarser grades, until these are
sain worked into fabric
Another factor in the situation is we rail
road strike, which is more acute in the East
than in he West, and difficulty in moving wools
from Botton to mill throughout the Naw Eng
lsiid t-tates ha slowed up operation!, considerably,
although we believe that the condition caused
through the railroad strike will not be lasting in
effect. e
Eye en New Oils
All eyes naturally are now on tho naw clip
to be shorn in the West. Shearing has been
greatly delayed through the continued bad
weather and there will be very little shearing
started before May 1. Northwestern growers
must necessarily have high prices for their new
clip wool owing to the fact that they have gone
through an expensive winter, but on the other
hand, buyers are proceeding cautiously and the
trade will be slower in opening this year than
Ufual on the new clip wools. This due princi
pally to the fact that, the financial situation is
very tiht and all concerned will have consider
able difficulty in financing their usual require
ments. Therefore, will be less anxious to tats
on laree volumes of new wools, especially those
arade which will not move readily. The fine
t and medium wools will, of course, be those to
bring the best prices on Uie market ana wm
move in a reasonable time, therefore the buyer

Yakima, ' April 28. Estimates on the Tskima

the bnds on the Kartlett are winter killed.
The 1919 crop was 2000 carloads and of this
amount 1600 cars were Hirtletts. Growers m
the tower valley ssy that fully two thirds of
theif Bartletts are killed and the fruit oudx

the percentage of loss is less and it is now

with a mixed clip would apparently have to take
a -a rifire price if he was to sell his clip in the
original bags on account of the coarse wools
mixed with the fine, for . the buyer who would
buy pch a clip would be buying it for the fine
wool alone and it would mean he would simply
have to store the coarse wools for future demands,

Montana is purchasing hay in the
Willamette valley and is inquiring for
additional stocks. This is the first time
that hay has been shipped from this j
section in that direction. Reports from j
the interior indicate an extreme short
age of hay and prices appear to be'little
object at the moment. Montana houses
have frantically wired local people for
supplies of not only Willamette valley
hays but were seemingly willing to pay
the freight rate both ways on any stocks
of alfalfa that Western Oregon has to
offer.
The situation in millstuffs is equally as firm
as the hay market. Leading Interests are asking
aj least $4 7 a ton for millrun while seme are
said to be asking a further advance of $1. A
$50 millrun market is therefore in sight here
for the first time.
Oats market i quiet here but prices are
firm. Little activity is hoW in barley, but
prices are stationary.
Vegetation Is Backward
Klward L. Wells of the Portland office of
the weather bureau advises:
The fore part of the week was cloudy and
cold, with frequent precipitation in northern
and eastern counties, and stane snow in ele
vated districts. Toward the cloc of the week
fair weather prevailed, with cool nights and
warm days. Frost occurred several mornings,
but the afternoon temperatures late in the week
were the highest experienced thus far this sea
son. Farmers are behind with their work and
vegetation is unusually backward, hence the dry,
warm weather waa very welcome.
In the wat-tern counties grass is generally good
and meadows are fairly good, though backward :
in eastern counties the cold weather lias seriJ
ously retarded the growth of grass and hay
crops. Most of the range stock has been turned
out, but in many cases shortage of hay has re
sulted in stock being turned out too soon.
Gras Is insufficient in many plac, and the wet
ground is being badly cut up, which will reduce
the carrying capacity of the range later in the
season. There has been, however, little loss
of stock Shearing of goats has been begun.
