Then the sum mer steelhead takes first place to be followed, as a present by the sUverside. SUverslde salrrtori are now the best salrnon on the market and they are cheaply priced. Dressed with the heads off they weigh from 6 to pounds each. They are' just right for home canning arid sell at 12c to 15c a pound in re tail shops. At this time, silverside sal mon are redr-meated, therefore at tneir best. -' '- Again the warning is given. When buying poultry on the public market, or elsewhere, see that the stock Is -not first dipped in watler and then weighed:; Rut see" it weighed.

Cohen Foreign markers were under bearish influ- ence or the week's opening and wheat priees abroad were weaker end lower Monday. There was iso a depressed sre for options in the Cliicago pit during the-early trading. Locally the general trend of the trade could be cilled softer with probably a fractional price j decline in the bids of export interests who Stare recently been going th limit for their I much needed requirements. . The big emergency appears over so far as filling imrae d.ate i sliijs is troncerned. While one or two firrasj still appear ' anxitms foe their immediate needs other, csaim they have plenty of wheat in sight for their requirements. This there fore lis the real cause of the lowering of ac tual irasU wheat bids here, trresiectie of the nominal quotations that are listed from day to dsy by the Portland Merchants' Exchange association. On the basis of. export business now arail able. j club wheat or western white would be quoted around $1.05 per bushel tide water tracki delirery. basis.

ASTORIA -PORT TERMINAL BUSINESS IS INCREASING Astoria, Or., Oct. 2, The greatest volume of business in the history of the Port of - Astoria terminals is now being h.andled there, while a steady in crease 1s being made both in the import and . export departments with ineica tions pointing to the coming 12 months being the best ever. Tho ! pier devoted principally to the handling, of grain, flour and coqjstwise shipments is filled practically to ce pacity with transient freight passing .over the docks to and from all parts of the world. At present there is stored at the docks 4.000 tons of Oriental cargo brought to Astoria by two ves sela and awaiting -trans-shipment. - Included in this freight are valuable Chinese rugs arid cerpets : and mat tings of the cheaper grade, most of which willgo io Atlantic coast in the intercoastat trade. ! Off-shore and intercoastal business at the local docks is constantly in creasing. Additional units are being added to thei equipment of the port docks for handling a huge quantity of grain to be shipped soon from here. Since January 1 of this year approxi mately 10,000,000 feet of lumber have been handled across the docks, the larg er part of which was sprucei from local mills and from mills up and down the Oregon coast. The spruce brought here from coast, points was barged here though some came by boat. The de mand for spruce is said to be the great eat ever and to be world-wide.
