I'miTUMi, Or., Jan. iW. .lamiary is clotinc out without ruin lull Hovural wi'okn of chilly fotf that lmvo caused coltli to prevail uiiivonmlly. A i;oud, old faahioui'd week of iviittup raiu would rcpnir much ailiiiK health in it in a well knowing faet th.it Oiegou rains insure I ho good health of her population. Tho wheat niiirkot U MilVoi injj do iirorwion. Tho Into advaueo itnliiooil wpeculatioii and ovorytliinu mhmhoiI alive and booming. Tho pceulatiouri were ea(,'er to cupio toiuiKo, m tlioy took up much dieii;iiR(Hl touuago in San I'YauoNco and evon England vpmh'Iu on tho way not yet iiwr port. Then a Hudden decline throw Hiieeulation into bpaains and freight ownorn were glad, to take ledueed figures. This year it takoa but a slight full in price to throw specu lation out of equilibrium. On tho Aliunde nido thoro tins been far more speculation and very heavy HhipnienU hao boon inmlo. Tho great trunk lines have out rates fearfully mid pooling arrangements have been fro qtiuntly ignored. Kates aro ho low from Ohicago to Katern jHirtrt that producers us well as Hpeoulatorti ha ve bwn hcnciUetl, This lowering of transposition keep.s wheat up at Chicago in Dpite of lower figures ahmad. Tho foieigu depression injuries (his coast more thuii the Atlantic, bcouuM) flights had advanced and tonnaj'o k.irs a hijjer price than when the same, quotations titled a shoit while ago. raliforuiii telegnims say pivducers theiv have not been belling for a week past and transaction!! havo lucit tietweon thippors and npcculative holder. Tho lato decline is attributed to no jjooil teason or exiting fact that but is thought to iv.Milt from plans of bpeeulators. Farmers heliovo pi ices must recover and uto holding on as re sult of that belief. In regard to Oregon lutbiiieo, prices for valley remain ntsfl.17 to $1.20 per cental, and producers hold for tho higher rate. Kastern wheat Va11a AVulla grain rates fl.PJJ per ctl. Shippora claim that lower tigiiios tiro certain to rule, Shippors who mustloiid ehartennl vessels iiy tho ruling prices ns they enn not allbrd to lo.-o time and pay demur age. Thoro is no perecptaWo lowering in prices hero as yet and foreign advices aro liable to imnrovo when speculation gives notice to advance. If thoro is no chango nbro.id wo may sco lower rates piovail when ships now loading aro din pntehed. A vessel is loading Hour from Kust of tho mountains for foreign markets, Iron vessels aro chartered o'Ja (id to nils Cd and wood rango Gs lower. Tonn ngo on the way and in the river has capacity equal to 70,000 short tons, near two mid n half million of bifhols, nnd wo do not sco that tho demand is apt to execd this supply.

Lnto offerings are taken tit 2ic to 270 and tho selling price of !10c is not sustained tho last fow days. Onions command l.Jc and mc slcadv at tlint. Apples nro not shipped in largo quan tities, as bo many havo proved unsound nnd unfit for foreign trade. The supply is mojorato and quotations rango front .)Uo to tic, IB to clianiclcr. Diicd fruits aro in largo supply and as tho timo for their uso is not uriivod thoy -ell nt what thoy bring in u very loos wnw.

Wo havo individually Hhippi'd l(),O0O pounds of choice dried plums and prunes, diicd whole mostly, extra choice and well packod, to n mar ket wo went thousands of miles to find, realized 15Jc net, hut tho fact that a producer has to hunt his own market is hardly ercditablo to Portlands wholesnlo trade. It is Huid Hint shipments of plums and apples do not equal tho iccciiiU of peaches and apricots from California, another fact that is significant ns to Portland's wholesnlo enterprise. Apples tango ft to 8c, nnd touch nil tho intermidinte figures nnd fractions.

The wool trade is thought to bo tecovcring from its long ricprcsMoii, and we toad many hopeful predictions of better prices for the coming clip. Hops havo reached bed-rock prices, as fouonty bales weto sold on Monday, of valley choice, at I lie. Quotations itinyo 10 to lljc and it is' undeniable that this vein's picking has been inferior to nio-t that has been grown on this coast, oi anywhere in the Pacific Northwct. Cal ifornia exports 2,000 bales. We wait with iutjiest returns from the very huge bhipnient made by Captain George Pope to Loudon direct. .I.T.

There are a largo number of orders hero for prime to choice hops, wltlt prices limited ftoin 10 to 12 cents. heaj it is needless to say however, they aro not being executed as growers ate familiar with current prices abroad it looks as though foreign purchases are moving e-ry carefully, for fear of exciting tho market, and nro making low bids, with tho view of creat ing the impression, that their bids xvprcsent the market values. Two things tire morally certain, first . they hno got to have tho hops. Second, tho must rni.o their bids before they can got them. Fnglish and Herman markets tiro firm.

JUfU JUrri, Htstc Asssycr, Matt," Tho Itoyal Daklng Powder received tho highest award over nil competitors at tho Vienna world's Imposition, 187U ; at tho Centennial, Philadelphia, 15,0 ; at the American Institute, and at Stato I'alrs throughout tho country. No other article- of human food has over received such high, emphatic, and uni versal endorsement from eminent chemists, physicians, scientists, and Boards of Health all over tho world. Note. Tho abovo Diaoham Illustrates tho comparative worth of various Baking Powders, as shown by Chemical Analysis and experiments mado by Prof. Schcdlcr. A ono pound can of each powder was taken, tho total leavening power or volume- In each can calculated, tho rosult boing as Indicated. This practical tf U for worth by Prof. Schcdlcr only proves what every observant consumer of tho Itoal Dakln Powder knows by practical experience, that, whllo It costs a few cents per pound moro than ordinary kinds, It Is far moro economical, and, besides, ulTords tho advan tage of better work. A slnglo trial of tho Itoyal Baking Powder will convince any fair minded person of thcso facts. 'Whllo tho diagram shows somo of tho alum powdcra to ho of n higher dogrco ff strength than other powders ranked below them, It Is not to bo taken as Indica ting that they havo any value. All alum iowders, no matter how high their strength, aro to bo avoided as daugcrous. KNAPP, BURRELL jTC0., Importers .iml Dealers in I " I i fkljMPLEMENTSandACHINES.
