ilt neeius as if tho lxttom has dwpped
out of tho wheat market, and, unhappily,
then is no indication that multoi will

When wo wero Knut, in Dakota,
Minnesota and Illinois, two weeks ago,
wo learned that prices at Chicago and
dhis tide of theio correspond almost
exactly with notations at Tortland and
tho interior.
Corn sustains a fair price and pays
this year much better than wheat in
thoM States.
The pro ent tpiotAtlons for wheat at
Portland arc ?1.10 to $i.li5 per cental
for valley and $1.02 to if 1.0.1 for 'Walla

Oats command ill) to tl.'i cents per

Potatoes are vory abundant at 2.r cents

Onions aro 7fo to 100 per cwt, and
sell by tho jobbers at $1.23 per sack of
110 to 113 pounds.

It is said that a ehrowd buyer from
Mihvaukeo came to Oregon and made,
his way lo tho hop yards up tho valloy
and by plncing tho prospects of tho
trado in a serious light secured sonio
largo lots from growers at loc. This set
a valuo which has not since been im
proved. Wo havo found it very dilllcultto pro
euro rcliablo information concorning tho
hop market and havo this week taken
pains to gather up all tho points wo
could for tho benefit of our friends in
tho trade. As the old stocks and tho
nearest of tho now stocks wear off wo
may look for improvement in prices.

Tho California Orocor and Cauncrrc
viows this tiucslion carefully and takes
tho ground that the producer is boing
ill used by tho buyer and is not receiv
ing anything liko 11 fair prico for his pro
duct. It assorts that tho harvested crop
in Ifiiflnnd is only half a fairyiold, and
120,000 cut. fhort of last yc.ir. Last
year 11 was said wonnany woum navo
50,000 Imlos for export, but had only
10,000, and will not havo moro this year.
Now York has -15,000 bales short of last
year. J no lMcitic coast was put down
at 75,000 bale", but owing to various
causes thousands of bales wero spoiled
in Oregon and Washington, so tho crop
cannot exceed 00,0X) bales. For twenty
llvo years back stocks of yearlings havo
never been so short us now. Whilo this
is true, misstatements aro boing niatlo
against growers, stating that hops aro
plenty and prices must rulo lower.
Dealers want to buy tho crop at priccw
far below valuo.
This statement is plain, and if tho
figures glvon aro correct, its conclusions
cannot ho denied. If hop growers havo
not yet sold their crop it will bo worth
their whilo to hold 011 to it and tee what
tho result will bo.
Wo quolo nbovo what thoy say about
hops. Thoy assort that tho world is
short of hops and that tho scarcity will
insuro a good prico beforo tho season is
much older. This week wo visited the
warehouse of Messrs. Popo it Hcdding,
this city; thoy havo a thousand bales
storod and expect to havo fivo hundred
moro noon. Those gentlemen havo
taken great interest in tho hop tr.ulo and
intend in future to dovoto themselves
moro especially to it. Wo aro surprised
to Uurn that not over 500 bales of Or
01(011 hops havo yet been sold, and tho
H.11110 is truo of Washington Territory.
Th Hcason hns witnessed henvy yields
being vory propitious until rains caino
in picking time and causod both loss
and damage. Lano county only saved
1,000 out of 1,100 in hoi hop yards, be
cause holp could not bo had to pick
thoni boforo they spoiled. The yield
has been largo, somo yards in Marion
county, near, lluttevillo, gavo 11,000 lbs
per acre, and some yards in Lano
county gavo 2,800 lbs to tho noio. Tho
averago yield in Lano county was 1,500
lbs and at Uuttovillo, Marion county,
1,000 was realized per acre. The total
yield of hops on this coast wa for 18SI,
about as follows:
Oregon, (bales) 10 (MX)
Washington, (bales) Hi.uiMi
California, (bales) lli'.tHHi
California grows tho best artnli m
her Itussiau river hops aro equal b the
very liest known in Kurope. The pro-
duet of tho co 1st htaiuls well, though
only one-half of tho crop of Oregon and
Washington ranks as choico with fifteen
Kr will, good, fifteen per cent, fair, and
ono-tlfth of all aro inferior. Choico
hops should bo worth 18o to 10c ; good,
17o to 18o; fair, 10 to ltljo; and infer
ior will range from lOo to 15o, less cost
of storage ami 5 jver cent, commission.

there was a slight improvement early in

Tho highost offering prico is 15o to
