PORTLAND, Juno (AP)
As the Columbia river kept up its
steady rise tonight, 'spilling oter

the vkjiattjf of . Vancouver, -Wash.,
the number of farmers and dairy
men temporarily deserting their

Several dairy herds were" driven
from the pastures: Owners of oth
er herds rushed supplies to their
farms where they . expected to
stand a long siege. Those resi
dents who decided to stay, at their
lowland farms despite the disrup
tion of travel the high water has
brought, were planning to bring
their milk and other farm prod
ucts to market in boats and on
rafts.
At Vancouver the river "rose to
a stage of 21.3 feet, only .3 of a
foot less than last year's crest,
21.6. Some hope tor at least tem
porary relief from the rising wat
ers was seen in the, report . that
the Snake river was falling.

Lowlands Flooded
Farther upstream at Washou
gal and Camas, Wash., lowlands
along the Columbia and Washou
gal rivers were completely flood
ed today and farmers and home
owners were preparing for even
higher water. Operations of a
large paper mill at Camas, it was
said, would not be seriously hind
ered until the 29-foot . level , is
reached.
Although there was still a 10
foot clearance along the dike on

after rising steadily for several
days.
The Willamette river was also
rising steadily, causing damage
to several docks in the Portland
harbor, hut the weather bureau
predicted that after Thursday the
rise would be considerably slower.
The river tonight stood at 20.3
feet here, a rise of half a foot in
24 hours. The weather bureau
forecast a stage of 21.5 feet by
Friday. Flood stage is 25 feet.

LARGE SALE IDE
413 Bales Sold in Last two
Days; Prices 70 Cents
And Little Above
Hop sales of 413 bales of 1932
stock in the past two days has
brought more life to the hop mar
ket than has been exhibited In
nearly two weeks. Hart and WU
liams bought 222 bales yesterday
at 71 cents; and 53 bales from
Lachmund at 71 U cents. Wolf
Hop company bought 114 bales
Monday at 70 cents and 24 bales
at 67 cents.
In the 222 bales at 71 cents was
61 bales from Frank Miller at
Forest Grove; 49 bales from
Adam Orey of Salem; 52 from the
Cooper estate at Independence
and 52 bales from Mt. Angel.
The Monday and Tuesday sales
reduce the 1932 stock in growers
hands to 2800 bales.
The market decrease over two
weeks ago, when 75 cents was the
prevailing price, is probably ac
counted for largely In lack of In
qulrles.
Word from the east that the
government is holding up a num
ber of brewery permits for one
reason or another may have some
bearing on the slightly lower mar
ket. These breweries will of
course not buy heavily until the
permits are Issued, and as soon as
they are issued some pickup In

At the same time, buyers are
