Week Murkctlng of Sheep He
gliw.
Portlnnd, Apll 24. Club wheat sold
In tho Portland market at $1.20 a
bushel during tho past week.
The falo was made at a time when
breaking values were shown In al
most all world's wheat markets.
Tl I , . .
jjiuetueni was boiu ai interior points
as high as $1.20 a bushel which would
mean better than $1 30 f. o. b Port
land. Parley murket advanced $2 a ton
at a single bound during the week
because of the luck nf supplies here.
Shipments from California have been
forced In this direction because of
tho higher price hero than In the
south.
Oats market was very firm during
the week but values generally ruled
unchanged.
Flour market is firmer at the re
cent advance nnd predictions aro out
for a further rise. Tho price has al
ready reached such a flguro that In
some cities bakers havo advanced the
price of bread.
Crop Prowixvts Good.
Wheat crop conditions In the Pa
cific northwest are showing no less
bright prospects than during recent
weeks.
While rain Is generally needed at
most centers the lack of it has not
hurt the plant as yet and will not
be likely to unless the showers are
delayed for several more weeks.
The cold weather early in the week
had only a passing effect In a few
scattered sections.
Wool Advances During Week.
Wool sold at an advance of 2c a
pound during the past week. A sale
was reported at an eastern Oregon
point at 22c as compared with 20c as
the best price a week ago. A sale
In the Willamette valley was made
at 21c.
The market for wool Is materially
firmer everywhere, and In most In
stances prices havo advanced. falea
are still of small volume, however.
Mohair Is firmer in the Pacific
northwest, although showing no
change In the east, from where prac
tlcally all the orders come. The fight
between local dealers for control of
the trade of the Pacific coast is re
sponsible for an advance of c to lc
a pound In the price here during the
week.
Marketing of Sheep Rcgina.
The movement of sheep to market
started In real earnest during the
past week. The run of sheep was
therefore the greatest of recent
weeks, totaling 2252 head compared
with 310 a week ago and 1352 head
two weeks ago. Despite the big In
crease In the run there was scarcely
any sag to sheep prices during the
past week; values remaining Just
about as quoted during tho previous
six days.
The very heavy purchases of sheep
by feeders and easterners the pres
ent season at high- prices are expect
ed to cause a smaller run of young
stuff n this market but those In
closest touch with the situation state
that shipments of two and three year
old stuff will be Increased in the near
future. Some of the latter made Its
appearance In the yards during the
week and quite satisfactory prices
were obtained.
Cattle Arc Scarce.
So few cattle came forward Into
the yards during the past week that
It was really hard to state Just how
prices stood. Practically no top stuff
put In appearance so the actual mar
ket for this grade remains a mystery.
On the basis of the stuff which sold
In- the yards during the week1 top
steers should have sold close to $5.75
If they did not actually reach that
figure.
' Every week of lnte there has been,
an Improving tone In the Portland
cattle market. Demand for a better
quality than generally offered here
Is showing a constant Increase and
whenever such quality Is obtainable
It Invariably sells so high that sellers
are afraid to make public the quota
tions for fear that It will excite cat
tlemen; many of them believing that
each has the best quality to offer.

(Special Correspondence.)
Portland, Ore., April 26. Swift and
company announce that they plan to
begin actual packing operations In
their new plant at Portland In July.
This brings to the surface the neces
sity for the farmers of Oregon to
grow more hogs., Pigs can be rais
ed until they are three months old
on vetch or other roughage at prac
tically no expense other than for pas
turage. A fat 200 pound hog in Port
land today Is worth $15.50 cash, live
weight. Thej packers will have to get
a supply must they send the money
for the hogs to Nebraska, or will we
raise them In Oregon?
Livestock Sale Begins.
The livestock sale at the Portland
Country club this week means a
great deal to everyone In Oregon. Sat
urday and Sunday witnessed thou
sands of people visiting the grounds
to Inspect what Is universally con
ceded to be the greatest gathering of
blooded horses ever collected In the
Pacific northwest to be sold to the
highest bidder, the sales at Port
land have uniformly been more suc
cessful than even those In Chicago, 1ft
proportion. The sale will continue up
to Friday night at the Country club,
Saturday being devoted entirely to
cattle at the Union stock yards. Ore
gon Is making a wonderful showing
and there Is assurance that buyers
be here from all neighboring states
and British Columbia.
Two millions of dollars for the four
hundred and sixty-two acres univer
sally known as the "Ladd Farm,"
puts Portland city lots in a class with
Oregon orchards, and the developers
of this magnificent property will cer?
talnly be satisfler if It pays dividends
equalling those of a well-kept mod
ern orchard.

Ing new settlers, gome have attracted
a greater Immigration during the past
year than for five years before.
A party of Illinois Investors recent
ly clubbed together and sent one of
their number, who had visited Ore
gon during the exposition, for a trip
through the state. Upon his rilurn
to Portland, this gentleman said he
had found Oregon people much
changed. At that time they were in
tensely conservative, today they are
enthusiastic, optimistic, and unani
mously predict a great future. In
fact, many of the communities are
growing so rapidly that they imagine
they have oil the growth, but those
who have seen the new orchards, the
substantial farm houses and other Im
provements taking place everywhere,
know that the next decade will see
record-breaking advancement along

EARTHQUAKES ILWE
STRANGE EFFECT ON CABLES
Seven telegraph cables were form
erly In service across the strait which
separates Sicily from the mainland of
Italy. There were so badly damaged
by the shock which ruined Messina
that repairs were necessary. One of
them was so deeply burled In the sand
by the earthquake that it could not be
raised. When the others were brought
to the surface of the water temporar
ily for examination they showed signs
or having been burned. Whether the
heat which produced this effect re
sulted from friction of volcanic ac
tion no one can say.
Gunder Anderson, a well knowi
fisherman of Wedderburn where he
had been employed by R. D. Hume for
about eighteen years, was washed
overboard from the gasoline schoonei
Osprey while she was crossing in over
the Coos Bay bar about 4 o'clock Sat
urday afternoon. No one saw him g
overboard nor has any trace been dis
covered of his body. The craft was
hit by a big breaker that carried away
her lifeboat and part of her rail and
when the other members ef the crew
were able to look on deck, Anderson
was missing.
