There are no important changes to record ince last week. The v heat market has held itsown, fow transactions, ami those wc will girt elsewhere. We publish a cable received yesterday from Liverpool by the Interior Merchants Agency, which shows that Oregon wheat for immediate shipment commands 48 3d per quarter of 600 pounds, while 60s was the highest figure rearhed when prices were t their best tut Fall. Only that freights are so excessive prices to-day would bo 11,60 or more, per cental in Portland, and that In duces us to present some matters as forcibly as possible for the attention of our subscri bers. Duilnn the past season exporters have made all the points possible to be mado from their ability to borrow wheat of each other or from Interior warehouses, so that they have kept up their supply at times when they could not actually buy wheat at prices offered, and we with to present to farmers the necessity of keeping their wheat under their own linmedl ate control and giving no power to any ware houseman to lend wheat under any circum stances. Lending wheat is no better than giving your anUgouist your own weapons to fight you with. We do not know to what extsnt this is done, or who does it, or at least art not at liberty to say, but exporters natur ally resort to every means they can use to make themselves independent of producers. We are informed that at the present time shippers are negotiating ith warehousemen to supply them with sacks under the market price, upon certain conditions. Racks have been the subject of manipulation and specula, tion in San Francisco, as usual, anil thostn'c viators have run prices up, so the warehouse man who gets sacks ou terms by which he can speculate off his customers, has a strong temp tation to make special terms tosecurt this ad. Tantage. The terms proposed, it is said, are that the w archouumau shall give the exporter of whom he gets sacks the preference in hand ling of his wheat; this may meau that wheat is to be Kut to hun for instance! at all event, it is only reasonable to suppose that if sacks are sold for lets thau their eash value there is consideration involved somewhere to more than make the seller good for his loss. We ace cow ou the evo of another harvest year with the tonnage question as much against us a possible. It is to lie the same Struggle over again we have just poued through, with the disadvantage that the cvr Utnty is much more in favor of the ".hip owner nd exporter who has beeu sharp enough to Charter vessels, than was the case one year ago. The only way the producer can sustain himself under these circumstances is to keep hold of his wheat until it is actually sold, for if the exporter gets hold of it without buying it, he is all the more able to sustain himself, for with the wheat in his own possession he is master of the situation, and if he can borrow one-tenth of the crop ho can then buy the bal ance ou his owu terms, Kieiy nun should see this point plainly, We copy froili the Pacific Rural Press a statement of the success the farmers of Cali fornia have in borrow ing money at low inter. est, trrvugn Mr. Moutpellier, of the Culifcr. jiia ilr.uigviV Bank, who has uow for tcur years saved them well. He has secured a perfectly safo warehouse system on one hand, and that makes money safe and easily procur able on the other hand. The lesson from this is that we ought to follow the example that is so successful, and tho farmer should borrow in preference to loaning wheat, or consigning on advances. The true policy is to keep the wheat out of tho hinds of the exporter until vou get ready to sell. If you want wheat to go up, keep it out of the hands of the men who must become its eventual buyers. As wo stated last week, reports of crops seem made up for speculative purposes, but what wo can know seems to encourago hope of bettor prices abroad. Tho United States will fall short of last year in all probability, and last year's ciop was short of what was claimed for it. Tho foreign crops aro hardly up to 18S0, and the fact that wheat to 1m shipped now from this river, and which cannot nirivo in EngUml beforo December, in considerably hiflicr than has been tho case sinco last Fall, shows conclusively tliat wheat speculators in England, with all the knowlcdgo they can procure of crop prospects throughout the world, consider it safo to camblo or speculate in wheat at an advance. This is the best proof we have that crop prospects aro not favorable to a largo surplus in 1881. The Ssn Francisco Commercial Herald sayst Albert Montpellicr has compiled a tabular statement, showing tho fluctuations in the price of good shipping wheat at San Francisco for each month ilurimx the past eleven cereal years, and also the average monthly rate of freight per ton from San Francisco to Liver. pool. From June, 18S0, to May, 1881, both months inclusic, tho figures aro as follows! Price ol Wheat .. Freight nifiim ijwch. Avcrao. per ion, Huh 1880-June, ....It 021 Jul)... ... 1 n AtiKUit.... 1 M September. 1 40 Oitober,... 1 (O November. 1 M December.. 1 U) IS81 January... 1 47J February,, 1 Sa Hard 1 40 1 45 1 i 1 40 1 45 ' 1 40 I SJ 1 271 1 25 1 an s i M 64s Od 17s 4(1 Ms Oil 1 HI 1 45 1 331 1 4J 1 Ml 1 4(1 1 sol 1 31 1 30 04s Od (MS 6.1 70s 4(1 71s 73s Od 76s 7TsGd 781 2d 77s Od April. 1 421 Ms? t 1 42 1 sell 1 37 l J2 The price of wheat for the past se.uon has probably been tho lowest ccr accepted since the State tint began to raise wheat for export. At the saino time the crop hss been tho larg est, tho surplus being at least 100 per cent, lireater than in any previous year. Unfortu nately for California farmers, other wheat growing sections also had a good crop last year, ami nencu tno increasc-u yicm nero Hid not confer the additional benefit exnected. Mr, Montpellicr places tho sverago prico for the year now drawing to a closo at 1.4 1 rf, This llguru compares as follows with the aver' ago for previous cereal ycais by tho same an tnorityt l'er Ctl.

The wool market has continued to bo well held up, and there is no reason why any should hold on speculation. Our wool is so desirable that manufacturers have bid up well for it much better than could have been ex ptcted, A lot of good wool sold tho other day in Salem at 1W cents, and our quotations from San Francisco show the conditions of the mar ket fer Eastern, JLilley and Umpua grades ot Northern wool. -. All things considered the wool clip of 1881 has gone off well and speed ily, and will put at least two millions of dollars iu tho hands of wool growers. Wool is said to liavo suffered some decline, which probably meant that there are fewer Eastern buyers and less competition. Our prico list shows a decliuo in poultry of SOo to 91 a dozen. Eggs have advanced to i'l cents. We are glad to note increasing interest in manufacture of dairy ptoducts. I). J. .Malar key &. Co. show us, and we sampled cheese of fered by them, made on hlte river, near Seattle, ol splendid quality, which wis made by professional dairymen Vho come from New York State, bringing their machinery for cheese making, and experienced workmen with them, which secures excellence.

Arrivals from abroad aro fewand far between. Tlieio are supposed to bo duo at this date some 40 or more deep water vessels, and all anxious ly looked for. Tonuago is scarce, and the exigencies of tho port will soon begin to suf fer for the lack of availablo tonnage. Freights continue to rule high, and ships aro greatly needed for tho carriago of our surplus wheat. Crops aro now being harvested, and these fori tltu most part aro turning out mucli tictti r than was expected. There is one disengaged vessel in port. A rccharter may be noted of a Ilr. iron ship to Cork, U. K., nt 3 17s Od. Tho tonnage licet now listed for this port aggregates 35tl. 000 tuns, avaiust 101,000 tons at a correspond, ing dato lost year and 163,000 tons In 1870. Vessels on the Kuropcan berth aro having quick dispatch. Wheat Very littlo of the new crop has yet been brought to market. Famlcrs are too busy in their harvest fields to give attention to marketing their crops at current pricci. ,vt a sco mat (no cuusus cumi'iicr at n jihiiiu ton plorvstbo California wheat crop of lSBOat 28,000,000 bushels. It as nearly fiO.000,000. Such mistakes are unpardonable. Hlseu here in this issue will lie founil the correct figures. This compiler quito overlooked tho fact that we Califnmians do not deal iu bushels, but in centals. The Chicago Inter-Ocean ' of the latest mail date sayst It is the opinion of the largest and most careful grain dealers iu the great lake ports, iu this city, and in Ilaltimorc, lloston, 'and Philadelphia, that the wheat har vest of the year will fall for short of last year's yield. It is the lieliel of these dealers, who make It llietr uusincsa 10 ouuin me luuesi end most accurate information concerning thu crom. that the harvest of inter wheat will show a deficiency of about 40 per cent , while the crop of Spring wheat u ill fall 20 per cent, short of last year a. And when it is remem bercd that inter wheat forms nearly two thirds of tho wholo wheat crop of the country, Spring wheat making up tho other third, the importance of these facts to those interested in it will lie understood. Oats Holders are firm, with free sales. The State of California, from Oregon, brought 1,42.1 sks; transactions for the week include the following lot! 300 sks Orciton burprise at II, 8.1 per ctl! 300 ska choice Uregon Mirprise, SI 80s 200 sks Rood Orcyon Feed, 81.7.V 1.7711 100 sks good Oregon Feed, $1,721; 700 sks good Oregon Feed, $1.70 Hops There is. very little of interest to re mark.
