Exchange prices reflected little hi the way of. actual business or bids here. The ex change price are more or less arbitrary with no disposition to follow the actual eash Tabus that may be reflected from day to day. European co triplications were responsible for a fluctuating market for wheat at leading world's centers during the week. There were very sharp' advances and declines with rallies and weakness mixed durinit the period. v Considerable business parsed for export wheat at interior Pacific Northwest points during the week. Exporters with -steamers to fill durins" the present month were anxious to secure their requirements without further delays This forced sharp premiums to pre rati orer the prices a reliable for October de li very. Everyone wanted spot delivery and there was little spot, wheat in sight. Iespite denials to the contrary new crop patent flour sales were made during, the week tt a cut of 40 cents a barrel from the quota- Tions ruling for old crop. Actual offers of new crop patent were reported down to 16.75 com pared with old crop at $7.20. Quite fair Tolume of domestic- flour trade parsed during the week but there was little export business. With two adT&nces of 10 cents per barrel each in the price of export flour, the Orient was not willing to meet the new conditions. Both club straight' and blue stem cutoff were quoted at the rise. MILLSTUFFS are scarce and rather firm ly priced. WHEAT Buying price, tidewater, track de livery: Club.

CoKa According- to information received by The Journal as -well as through priavte interests,- there will be liberal supplies of turkeys for the ho'dajrs, although none are in a position to state- with any decree of accuracy whether theulk of the birds will be shipped for the ThankpgiTing .L ' J trade or kept for a later holiday, in the hope of forcing i?', ' ' " 1 osfavorableeather was shown during the present 6 '. r i .D enr, tn iirbv nrrui notion and growth. Dry weather aided the rearing of the holiday birds, and as feed Js quite cheap, it is sale to say that tie stock will be fatter this season than for several years past. mm ., LrTv I with the downfall or an ioousiun pricrs uurms um V 1 last year. It is also safe to say that turkeys are not . I Hkely to sell as high in any market as a year ago. While ; i mnt-A nr loss of a. eruess. stilL takinsr general trade i conditions Into consideration, it is more than likely that 1 turkeys will follow other products. While it is true that by liOlaing DaCK tne DUIK OI lueir iru irum me iiuiiKB- giving trade, ttrrkey interests may be able to force higher prices for Thanksgiving, but it is the role that when birds are high for Thanksgiving the are cheaper for Christmas. This rule does not all carry, for the very good reason that supply and demand are again in fun working ar rangement. There has been an actual scarcity of turkeys in this territory during the last few years, and for that reason the price OI tne Diras nan uecn aunurmauy nigu. All Seek to Ascertain Price Shipping interests invariably seek to ascertain what the price 6f turkeys wfll be before shipping. It is impossible for commission handlers or whole salers to know what the price will be.- Everything depends upon conditions. The supply may be light andthe demand heavy. Then turkeys Will be higher, providingrof course, that financial conditions are such that the public can pay the price demanded. If turkeys are plentiful and the demand limited, then the probability la that prices will be low. All depends. Many shippers appear to believe that the average wholesaler or commission man has the price ticket locked up in his safe and is not i telling the truth when he writes his inability to make an accurate statement of what values will be. There is one thing that turkey shippers should remember : Appearances count more than anything else in the marketing of their supplies and the price available. A good looking bird will always bring a better price than one with a poor appearance. Skinned birds, therefore, sell for less than those that are more carefully .dressed. More care in dressing and in shipping means more dollars for the shipper. Here's Ten Commandments for Shippers "i O. T-Gullickson of Gullickson & Miller, Front street wholesalers, has pre pared the following 10 commandments for shippers of poultry. If followed they mean the best price available : 1 Keek from feed 24 hours before killing. 2 Remove all feathers except few on neck. This means pinfeathers, also. 3 Hang by legs in cool place until thoroughly cooled out. 4 Wrap beads in clean paper. Remember packages in transit receive con siderable rough treatment. This Is where many birds get skin bruised, gen erally along the back. . BRoll each bird In an old newspaper. 6 Pack solid. This will eliminate most of the damage. 7 Follow dealer's advice regarding dates of shipment, etc. 8 Far better to have birds arrive a day earlier than a day late. 9 Mark your name and dealer plainly. 10 Notify dealer as to number and weight shipped. f Hart white.

Dardanelles News Cause of Weakness In Chicago Wheat Wheat was weak. The news from the Near East was of a conciliatory tone with the albes inclined to make concessions in order to pre vent hostilities and the Liverpool market as well as sterling exchange reflected this posi tion. This knocked the props from under the bull movement. The start was featured by general liquidation and stop-loss selling. Some strong honse supported the market for a time and this encouraged a little local buying but the rallies were feeble and toward the end prices had another sinking spell. Winni peg eash wheat Was firm but Minneapolis was easier. Local cash wheat premiums were un changed to a shade easier for hard winter. Shipping sales were 8178,000 bu. including 90,000 bu. to exporters. Export demand was quiet. The market closed 22Hc lower; September. 31064; December, 31.06 1.05 Ts; May, 3110 1.09. Corn was affected by the foreign news as well as the break in wheat. Liquidation was in evidence at the start. Exporters took 262,000 bu. of corn out of this market. Domestic sales were better and totaled 75,000 bu. Receipt continued heavy. Market closed e to le lower; Sept. 62 62c: December 58 0 58 la c; May, 61 0 61 14 0 He. Oats were easier with other grains.

Higher bogs and improved cash trade were factors. A good trade in dry salt bellies and lard was re ported over night. Lard dosed 5o to 22 hie up and ribs 10c to 62 He higher.

Sept. 23. A better feeling over uie near stern situation combined with reports of an expanding nlnmi nf htui?MS in this country becaus of cooler weather, the settlement of labor troubles and tbe elimina tion of tariff uncertainties, seemed respond hla for an opening advance of 8 to 18 points in i-ii coura maraei toaay. inere was a gooa deal of covering lor over the week-end and a fair demand from trade and commission howes, but the opening ad ance met some selling by the' South and after selling about 25 points net higher, with -December allowing a recovery of. over half a cent from the low level of yesterday afternoon the market became rather irregular. The con tinued Southern selling here suggested that farmers were selling freely. Most traders in the cotton market feel that tbe problem in the mora immediate market. at least, is the absorption of the increasing movement Fanners arw evidently rushing their cotton to market. Market closed steady and well up to the beat prices of the day. The net gain as compared with the Fri day s final was 16 to 26 points. MinneapoHg.Dnluth Flax Minneapolis. Sept. 23.

DAIRY STUFF IN UPWARD SWING Butter and Eggs Are Forced Up During the Week; Prune De mand Lacking in East. Extreme strengtb was shown throughout the dairy products market 'daring the week aad advances were scored ia Ath butter and egga. Naturally there is a disposition among the leaders of the dairy-. products trade to get prices on fresh offerings as high as possible, because of tbe effect upon their icehouse holdings. Such action was reflected ia the week's trading, not only at Portland, but throughout the country generally. There is scarcely any room to dispute the fact that while after all supply and demand make and unmake markets and prices, action is some times forced prematurely by those who would profit by such change. In this instance the chief ones to profit .would be the holders of com storage supplies. General Butter Advance - General 'advance was scored in the butter market for the week, the entire American trade being affected. There was more or less talk of foreign business, but confirmation was entirely lacking? There was general talk of an advance here for prints during tbe entire week, and this affected demand and forced a greater sale. There was aa early advance of le in cubes with the call greater than the supply of real extras. According to local makers, the out put showed a gain for the week. Cube butter extras ruled: Port.

Cheese Markets Hold Demand for cheese kept full pace with the supply; in fact, was a trifle above it, accord ing to word from Tillamook. Local market was generally stationary with demand normal. Country Meats Firmer With decreased offerings, market for country killed meats was firmer, with a further advance in the price of calves and . stronger values noted for dressed hogs. Potato Situation Quiet While there is an improved local demand for potatoes, no outside call is indicated for Oregon stock because of the lower values available for stock from other states. Trade here ia somewhat sore regarding the poor quality of Yakima offerings, resorting being necessary. Best Onions Moving Limited volume of new crop Oregon qnions was shown on the market here for the week. There was considerable poor stuff which sold to the trade down to 70c and to retailers around $1. Best stock sold to the trade around $1 and to retailers at $1.50 per cental. A few were asking a greater pront. Prune Situation stagnant Despite all efforts of coast interests to scare the East into buying by reporting unfavorable weather for picking, the market for dried prunes continued of very nominal character during the week. Chicken Sates. Active With the exception of very light hens and springs, there was a very good movement of chickens in the Front street trade for the week. Heavy hens especially were sought. Quite fsir supplies of ducks and geese came forward, but found practically a nominal call. Apple Situation Quiet No special movement was noted in the apple trade for the week. There appears to be no disposition whatever among buyers to participate in the western offerings even at the reasonable prices now quoted. Graven- steins continue to be offered more freely than demand, with sales general around $1 for jumble pack. This forms the bulk of the offerings. Hop Mark at Stagnant Practically no sales of hops were shown for the week. Picking is being completed and the crop is now estimated at approximately ou.vuu Dales.

Wast Special Correspondent of Tne Journal - (Copyrigbt, 1922, by The (Journal) New York. Sept. 23. The chief events of the past week bearing upon, the financial mark eta were tne threatened clash between ritain and Turkish, at the Dardanelles, the ad justment oi tne dispute 'v-twecu Germany and Belgium over the de- v . went, uia uicnaw i .T-'f k .A'S .tl . . . 1 notion following- the -4 bj Bxiopmens nns ana tne moaerate raie- ) Tiff nf nn nna. .tmm '4 Wbauver may be the outcome of tne Tnim -risis, its immediate el ects have been bene icial to tne American 'arraer. The wheat aiarket, turning from its prolonged decline, has had a recovery of approximately 16 cents a - bushel. This has been a help to business sentiment ia the West even tnough it is not sure to be lasting. German Mark Steadies Tbe arrangement under which German fold and securities are to be deposited with tbe Bank oj- England in lieu of eash aa guar antee for the six months treasury notes .iasried to Belgium has had a steadying effect upon tbe German mark despite tbe continued out pour of new paper currency. Banking opinion, however, is skeptical on this subject and nat urally so. With German printing turning out paper marks at the rate of over 2 billicns a day, no respite in the indemnity payments can avail for long to prevent further depreciation. The only way German currency can be estab lished is tor the note increase to be stopped and this can only happen when a halt is called upon the extravagant borrowing now going on by tbe German government and by commercial interests, which, owing to the great rime in price, require constantly increasing credits. German Discount Rate Rises The Ueichsbank has sought to meet tbe emergency by still another advance in its rate of discount. This rate, which up to tbe end of July stood at 6 per cent now stands at 8. The practical significance of this has gone up too. lint whether this raising of the official discount charge to the highest on record will hare tbe desired.:effeot of checking the expansion in loan accounts is altogether doubtful. German businessmen who saw their living costs go up over 40 per cent in a single montb during August are not likely to balk at paying 8 par cent lor their money when they used to pay 5. The main trouble has been - the necessity for the German government to rai&e funds for the purchase of foreign currencies with which to meet installments of the indem nity. In the last 10 days of August alone treasury bills presented for discount at the Keichsbank. amounted to the sum of 18,000,- 000.000 marks. If, ss the result of tbe postponement of further eash payments, a stop is put to this government borrowing, the German financial situation mignt take a turn for the better. The next week or so will tell the story. American Exports Fall Off Our total merchandise exports for August were only $302,000,000, the smallest of any month this year with tbe exception of January and February, and. 865,000,000 lees than those of August a year ago, when tbe domestic trade collapse was at its worst. These figures have shown decisively that the recovery of the last 12 months in home industry has brought no response, in the foreign commerce and until there is an .improvement in this quarter there can be nothing in the nature of a trade Doom. American industry can get along fairly well relying upon tbe domestic market alone, but there has never been an era of great pros perity in this country without an active and profitable foreign trade. No Money Strain The advance in call money to 6 per cent and tbe alight hardening of quotations for time loans are a retlex of tbe seasonal demands for money in the crop districts, but they do not suggest anything resembling a-strain. From the banking viewpoint a 6 per cent money rata through the autumn months is altogether healthy and desirable. At any time interior bank withdrawals press too bard, extra credit could be immediately obtained through assist ance of the rediscount privilege at the federal reserve banks. Under present day conditions the real crite rion of mouey market conditions is not tbe individual bank loan accounts or tbe individual surplus reserves but the movement of federal reserve Holdings. The increase in this item from the very lowest of tbe year ia only $51,000,000. most of which occurred within the last week. Present total of bills discounted by the Federal Reserve bank at the instance of member banks is aaza.ouu.uuu, as againM. over $3,000,000,000 in the early part of 1B20. These comparisons bear witness to how very slight the pressure of the agricultural demand has thus far been, and illustrate also the immense potentialities for credit expan sion which lie in the present position of tbe federal reserve institutions should actual need Stock Market Reacts The effect of tke higher money rates is no doubt accountable to some extent for tne check which has become more pronounced npon the advancing tendency of investment securities. Tbe speculative sioca marcet urns . 4, trt nutMioe ' aiiaira oniv aa f these have fitted in with its own interior re adjustment. After two montns o aimosx unin terrupted advance during which individual val ues were pushed ahead pretty fast and fax. tha market has bad tne Inevitable reaction. In the belief of many good observers, it is a, lull like that which occurred in June, be tween two periods of active speculation, this belief being based upon the expectation that tt. markets have not vet discounted the good business year which is commonly looked for in 1928. 4 Eastern Cash 'Wheat Minneotialis.
