There are fewer egga In the fcutene area at this time than there was for the aame season a year ago, because there are not so many flocks, so pro ducers of this section on the whole are not suffering as heavily as some in the mid-west. Those farmers and producers depending on egg money as a big item, however, are pretty hard hit by the steadily decreasing prices of the past week. , . , It's early to start buying for stor age yet and it's a hard guess when the seuson will open this year, accord ing to Ralph Ferry of the Pacific Co operative Poultry Producers ": tion.

Heactlonary trade trend In the eg marset appear. 1 lie result not depression caused by pressure cold storage stocks, hill lack of eon sumlng ability. Seasonable increases in production of eggs throughout the l,'r.(ted State, has been intense the current period. The normal sleek production period lias not appeared to date this tHeon. east and. the midwest along with the Pacific slope have been producing eggs at an abnormal rate all through tha fall and winter months. There has been an actual increase in sslet of eggs during the fall and winter months to dote this season as compared with other recent periods. This is refleced clearly in the early disappearance of the cold storage supply along wiin raning. oi irrj.u eggs in volume heretofore unknown during the cold period. The unwillingness of speculative interests to take on stock for stor age at this period appears due to two conditions: the lack of bank credit together with the extreme caruness of the season. Today's selling price of eggs on the Portland market is so low as the lowest nrice reached last sea on. Dnrinr th last few dT f .Tannery th price dropped to ISc down lor extras, tn prewni. iop value. Sales of butter .orally are more liberal with general trade more or lftM steady at the lata declines, ite toilers report increased call as i result of the recent price cuts. But- General easiness is reflected In the market for live chickens ai a result of the increased offerings, due to th sharp cuts in the price of eggs, rrnctically all sorts are affected. Movement of turkeys is still more or less of nominal character wiin No. 1 stock quoted in a limited way 50 to 2.1c lb. Scarcelv sufficient business is passing to establish prices inasmuch as freezers are offering only 18c for No. 1 birds in Idaho and other interior points. There Is a very good demand for country killed Iamb according to the Portland Produce Co. Sales are being made of best stuff at 10 to 10j cents lb. Veal market is also good. There la a fractional loss in the nrice of conntrv killed hog here as a result of the arrival of considerable light fat stuff which is spIIipx slowly 0 to 7c lb. The latter is extreme top. Mnrket for potatoes is very slow. Tattle action la indicated In Des chutes stock as a result of mixed marketing conditions at the source. Yakima is pouring its supplies into the local market and getting away 1th more than its share. Oversupnly of poor lettuce from the Sacramento section la clogging local trade, resulting in loss to practically all who touch It. Sales are being ' made at whatever the bnver la willing to offer.
