De eplte all efforts, to hide the facts, It develops that the - foreign demand con tinues even irr the. face, of extraordinary declines in foreign exchange. Propaganda continue in tb trade, with thm bear . , tore mi inclined to utilize every poesibU advantag evtn to the extent .of putting oat misleading reports. - For instance. Uie bar facta ef the Argentina surplus held Jane 1 at 80,000, 000 bushels compared with 72,864.000 T-nshels a year ago for th same data, would influence many of the "pikers" to aell short and thereby Influence the market. I'ulen the Argentine figure r given carful coDAideratiiAi, it would appear a if tha surplus of whaat was a bearish far tor. Tbi noes would be awnrasd by the average "piker" 'who. gambles in figure. The tact is that Argentina bad little surplus on band a year ago, because it had practically nothing to export This year it bad a better crop, but even though its stocks on band are more than a' year ago, there is less wheat unsold in growers' hand. Tb shipping strike is on of the chief factors to keeping mnch of the wheat already old, still on the Buenos .Aires docks. Portland, continues to secure heavy wheat applies from interior paints, with a total for the week of 835 cars, compared with 288 cars A year ago for a similar period. There was little change in mflMnffs or feed-" atuffs during the Week. - Hour situation was quiet at unchanged price.

There was a greater demand for storage and thit, together with the decreased output. cre ated abnormally strong values for this period of the season.

While the wants of tb local market have been well taken care of recently, so far aa general wants are onnoerned. there was a noticeable shortage of offerings of triplet from 1 Tillamook. There were various explanations for this.- Home were inclined to believe that Tillamook was "punish ing" local interests for the shading of prices by one firm. ; Others believed that the Cali fornia markets .were demanding- more than their shar of tli output. Still others expressed the opinion that Tillamook was simply withholding ,lts supplies from th market because it felt that an advance in the price wsa likely, far more so in fact than a decline. ' In the meantime Carl Haberlach, secretary-sales manager of th Tilla mook association, was looking wis as usual and saying nothing. , "f " Potato Trade I Qulot While a limited amount i of business contin ues to pass for potatoes at country points, there is no sidestepping th fact that the -big demand for 1920 potatoes is over. Some carloads are till rolling toward th South and a few more ara being prepared. These were purchased some time ago., With hew crop potatoes plennful n tbe South and price lower, there is. seem ingly little reason for any material movement of the old crop from Oregon in that direction. Onion market la showing no change generally. California reds are due her next week. Wool Sales Increase. ' Increased sales of wool were shown at In terior Pacific Northwest points during the week, although th volume is still ; below normal years for this period. It appear that many of th sheepmen who are badly in need of funds are accepting bids of some of ; the eastern buyers at- prices that are aeveral cents below what is being obtained net lor tnena at Portland ware bouses. - According to- a statement of ao offi cial of the Colombia Basin Wool Warehouse company, indications point strongly to not only a better demand, but an increased pric during the fail months. -. 1 -.,-.; . -.

Cohcs Beemlnirly fruitgrowers "pay little attention to such details as the law, becauss provisions are violated openly and with practically no concern on their part Growers take Chances with ths law that may some day give them a "peck of irouDie," -tor wnich they will have none to blame but tnem selvea. It must be confessed that many are unaware of the provisions of the law j others are-simply careless. Upon every box of fruit that is marketed within the state of Oresron,, the law provides that the name of the arrower or shipper and the address, shall be placed on the outside and plain letters only are to be used. ; There is likewise a law that provides certain weights -and measures for fruit containers and these are violated openly because practically no effort has been made to enforce the measures, except on rare occasions. A crate of stj-aw berries -is expected by law'-to contain IS pounds of fruit- ; The averaga crate with 24 boxes weiRhs approximately 6 pounds, therefore the pro us weight of each r ! 1 - oiwum nub w Km- umn m (kiuiius anu 111 iiioiixcott h. i?. ' ' I more where the boxes are heavier. !ir " ' 3lany Ignore IVeig(,' XjBvv j . . Many growers entirely ignore the weight law. Crates of strawberries ..have arrived In Portland recently that have contained less than 10 pounds of fruit each. Just where these growers anient to sr-nt nff At when triitv ahin nrh stock to market is a mystery, because if they have tried it once they will find that if they get any returns whatever. It is not sufficient to pay transportation charges.- . ' - . - - - -, . . . .Many erowers who ship short weight berries to market presumably work upon the theory that the "city fellow is easy prey and does not examine the contents. They should, be assured sf once that the f,city fellow" is wide awake and on the job every minute. Crates are always opened before making purchases, the fruit examined and the top box lifted out to see what the lower tier contains. There is no chance whatever for the careless or those inclined to be crooked to et awax with it, ' . - ,' Doesn't Fsy la Any Event " Even at the best it does not pay to put up an inferior package of fruit, whether the quality be poor or short weight tried. The markets as a rule are willing to pay for duality, This is doubly true when the channel of the trade is con gested with offerings and aa ovorsupply exists. Then the discrimination against poor Quality and "cheat" welahta in th most Intvnsa - ; In markets like the one this week, it is commercial suicide to put up inferior J susuir. ucuer eep sucn Btoca at noma, ior at least men tne snipper will not be paying for crates and transportation charges and receiving no returns whatever. J ,t - -. . . .. Another thing that growers should remember: The law provides against the placing of large fruit on top and small sizes on the bottom of the package unless so marked. In Canada the law in this regard is very strict and considerable American stock has been condemned on account of Improper packs. - , , , . Oood iBgtroctions GItcb Growers Hood .

Growers of the Gresham district have bean organised but a short time, but they have developed some very good results. D.E.

U. Government iWould Increase Borrowing Power of Farmer - Washington, ' June 1L (WASHING TON BUREAU OP THE JOURNAL).) Secretsry Hoover of the department of commerce and Secretary Wallace of the department of agriculture, in call ing representatives of grain growers and dealers, elevator men and ; asso ciated interests in Washington this week, ; are moving to Increase, if pos sible the borrowing power of the grain grrgfar and to save him from the ne crTity, of selling soon after the har- T((. :, -V...- ; ,i ; The two secretaries have -stated th outlines of their plan, for which novelty is' not claimed, but which B is thought the joint agencies of th government may promote so as to bring it into general us and by commercial practice achieve results which legislation has so far been helpless to secure. The proposal is summarised as follows: , . ; A That the country elevator should receive all grain' offered for storage and isau a certifi cate as to quantity, grade Dd quality, also showing on its face th rate of charge for wsre Ltusing, , and insurance against fir and other risks., , . B That the country elevator should have the right to ship grain to th natural terminsl elevator and upon presentation of the certificate deliver grain of - the same of higher grade at th terminal, with proper reflection- of freight charges. If the grain bad moved into a ter minal elevator, the charges for freight and haul ing, together with accumulated storage and in surance, would be deducted from th sale value. C That tb storage certificate should be aaf gnarded by a method of insurano by thg lia bility companies. ,, E As there must be an absolute settlement between th country elevator and the farmer a to quantity, grade and quality, there must be some ready method of appeal in case of dis agreement. This might be arranged by farmers and country elevator oprators agreeing to abide by a determination of samples made by some nearby authority, such aa the grade supervisor of the department of agriculture. Experience with millions of transactions under tbe Grain corporation during th war showed that such dis sgr eementa axe extremely rare and' do not en tail many appeals.
