BEND PORK PRICES UNTOUCHED
BY GENERAL DROP IN MARKET
Although today's swine quotations
in the Portland markets ranged from
$12.30 to J 1 5.5o', live weight, Bend
butchers are paying from $18 to $20
for pork rnised in Contrnl Oregon,
a survoy of tho local markets reveal
ed todny. Dressed pork will cost
the Portland retailer from 18 to 19
conts a pound,, while the Bend dealer
pays 24 to 25 cents. This Is the rea
son why prlceB to tho consumer have
shown little or no change in the past
two months horo, as fur oh fresh pork
la concerned, while cured meats,
which aro shipped in from outsldo
points, give the housekeeper the ad
vantage of five or six cents a pound
over former quotations.-
Whllo swlno shipped into Port
land', actually bring considerably
loss than those markotod here, It
would not be advantageous to local
donlors to. ship from the largor cen
ters, on account of freight charges
and with this Is coupled the fact that

"Etery little bit added to what you

believes Miss Fern Allen, a candi
date in the Reveille popular girl con
test. Miss Allen added enough votes
to her total with the count at noon
today to put her In second place in
the contest. With the exception of
Miss Dora GUlis, who still retains
the lead several of the candidates
advanced their position In the list.
Many of the contestants are holding
back vote fn the hope of springing
a surprise on their opponents. It la
understood, a a number ot those
who have been extremely active in
enlisting support are showing pracl-
caiy no advance on the records.
In addition to the various business
houses in Bend where votes be sec

in the contest by placing books of

in the city rooms on Minnesota.
lined by Charles Boyd, proprietor of
ono ot the city's -leading markets, is
the late harvest, with the result that
hogs being prepared for the market
have not yet completed their finish
ing diet ot grain. Because of this,
locally raised pork is not yet ready
to be sent to the market, and in con
sequence no reflex Is felt from lower
prices prevailing elsewhere. As soon
as stock Is roady for shipping, this
influence will be felt, nnd prices ask
ed ot local dealers by farmers1 will
drop correspondingly. This lower
rate will be passed on down the line
tp the consumer.
Fresh liork is now Belling over
the counter at from 38 cents to 45
cents. The apparent discrepancy be
tween these figures and the 24 to 25
conts dressed weight paid to farmers,
Mr. Boyd explained when he told
how tho butcher must sell the bead
and foot' of an animal for 10 cents
less pec pound than la paid for the
entire carcass,' while loss In render
ing lord will run from 30 to 40 per
cent, the lard Itself retailing at 35
cents. ,

another day will see the end. Sev
eral merchant have been out of
sugar for weeks, and have assumed
the fatalistic attitude that "when
our orders are ifilled, they will be
filled, so whut's the use of worry
ing." Others, more fortunate In
their early ordering have new stock
on the way, but these, in general
amount to but 200 or 200 pounds
for each grocery. Merchant who
still have sugar on band have cut
down purchases to 25 cents worth
for each individual, and Jobbing
houses, also In bad straits, have
cut down the orders of their cus
tomers in much the same fashion.
Two causes are given for the 'con
tinued shortage, one. that the 200,-
000 sack government order from
tbe Pacific coast, Is responsible
while a more basic reason is given
thut the coming of prohibition has
increased (he demand ot sugar 25
per cent, far exceeding tbe sugar
equalization board's estimate of the
country's needs. Tbe increase of
sweet drinks to take the place of
alcoholic beverages, is also blamed.
Relief Is promised when 'the beet
sugar crop is marketed, but al
though the refineries were busy
grinding out the finished product by
the middle of the present month, it
has not yet come into circulation.
Bend merchants hope that the sltua
tlon will be remedied by the early
part of December, but they admit
that it Is only a hope.
