Cohen There Is a complete absence of Inquiry for potatoes for Bhipping purposes at country points tributary to Portland and similar news comes regarding other centers of the United States, , With a total potato crop in the United Statea that is believed to have parsed all previous pro duction records, pracut-ailr ai sections have potatoes of their own ana are .not in the market for supplies from other districts - Potatoes arc selling from 90c to $1 per cental at Idaho, and Colorado shipping points for best stock and there is stow demand at that. Both of those, states have , considerable freight rate advantage over this territory and even at the same price it would be impossible to compete tor the limited amount of business available The' only business shown in-this territory is the small lot purchase of Portland wholesalers who are not generally offering above $1 a cental for good quality.

(L N. S.) Wheat closed strong. Prominent commission houses and elevator concerns absorbed the offerings on the early break, and when shorts tried to cover late in the session they held prices up sharply December displayed most strength on better support coming from the sea board. Coarse grains rallied near the close in sympathy with wheat, the de ferred months showing more resistance on the , way . up. Provisions closed sharply lower. : Final prices were gains of l14c for December, while March' was un changed to c lower. December corn advanced 'c, May unchanged, and July MMo lower. December oats rose C May Yc, and July c higher. Chicago, Dec 3. (L N. ' S.) With best selling by houses with Eastern connections wheat opened He to c lower for December and c off for March. The trade was light and mixed. - Corn opened unchanged to - He lower for December nd He to He off for May. Trade was light as in wheat and Eastern commission houses were on the selling side. Oats opened with light buying featuring the early trade. "December was He higher and May started H e lower to H e higher. Scattered selling and lack of support fea tured provisions at the opening. Prices were around 10c lower. . Portland; wheat Dies were 10c a bushel higher for the leading options Friday on the local exchange, a eheer.rise of about 29c since the low point was reached November 26. With many cargoes of wheat sold short here by exporters, there has been a general scramble for supplies in the country and bids are being advanced there above th Portland basis. Germany alone was a buyer of two shiploads of wheat in Portland during the last few days. The German food commissioner asserts that his country will need about 72,000,000 bushels of wheat this season, and it is to this country that the German are looking for their supplies.

Yakima's army of labor employed in the apple packing industry ia about through with the season's work. It is estimated that over 1000 men, women and girls have been employed at wagea ranging from $4 to $8 s day sines early in October. The season generally continues till after the first of the year, but owing to lyisatisfactory prices the present crop is slow in moving, and workers will be laid off. till the demand makes a more active market. It ia estimated that fully 25 per cent of the Winesap crop is being held in storage in loose boxes and will be packed out when the market seems ready to absorb the crop. - In thia way growers and shippers tie up less money and aave on repacking charges in the spring in case the storage has to be held till late. . .-"CLOSING Bid.
