E ifilUVL I BUT PRICES LOW Portland, Jan. 17 In Uie hop mark-'t a stronger tone is apparent which would indicate that another advance in prices is about due. (rowers are taking this view, and many of those who still have hops uofiold believe the market will reach 20 cents before long. What has niotst impressed hold- era h:is beon tbe fact that during tbe recent counli y-whle cold pell there was no decline In the m; ket at anv point. Usually under such conditions the demand has fallen off. Tills leads hop men to believe that In the ".ate winter and spring months the market may be in a still stronger position. Current price In the northwest are 144i15c. The better grades ate about at the former level, but the lower grades have moved up miarnly and buyers have to pay as much for them as for the best hops. The purchase of 900 bales has just been made by McISVff Bros., of Portland. Of these, 600 bales were Yakima hops and 300 bales Calif ;imtas. Prices paid) rainged up to 15 cents. The (tune firm closed n contract for 60.000 pounds or rakimas or the 1925 crop. ItiiU of 14 4 cents have been' made for western Washington hops. In the (Sonoma district of Culifornia, where only 3100 hales remain unsold, buyers were ofier ii g l.'rrl5 cents, fp to 14 cents was bid for Mcndochms, Tbe Kuropean markets are firm er, and imported hops have advanc ed to $1.13 at New York, (icrinan dealers predicted that priceA would rif-e after New Year's, which prov ed :o be the case. Continental crop- are reported well no!d up. which Mhouhi stimulate the foreign demand for American hops before ling. STATE DAIRYMEN TO MEET AT M'MINNVILLE Portland. 17 lletween 200 aid 300 farmers, feel manufactur ci s and " de.ilrrs, legislators and state eecutivi are expected to at tend action of the State Hairy .issociati'Mi Tuesday and Wednes day in McMiunvllle. as well as a pree-eo:iventlon meeting Monday. Such matters as production of dairy farms, the Ri"wlnj of alfalfa In the Willamette valley, and leg iflatbm will be Taken up. Oleo Is expected to be the sub ject of conldcr:iblo dW isMon. The Oregon prune has reached every continent on the globe with the exception of Africa, according ' a survey made by local prune men and It Is possible the lowly li.rune may rea.-h somewhere Into timt continent indirectly from Oregon. Lip to last year South Am erican market) had been untouch ed but that year a quantity of Oregon prunes were shipped Into' Hue in is Aires, and It La believed that South America may eventual- become a recognized market for the Oregon product. JvHtlmut.es compiled by north west prune growers and association men dis.:lono that exports already have parsed any previous mark and that iwj, and poswibly three, times more prunes from the Pacific northwest will be exported this year than everv before. r.ven to It!y, ttie native home of the Italian prune, fruit with a northwest label ha3 been sent. Residents of the ancient seaport town of Joppa, in Syria, received shipments, as did ports such as Helslngfors, in Finland, Hamburg, in f iermany, Havre. Copenhagen, Stockholm, Christiana, Naples, Bordeaux, London, Liverpool and Ulnsgow. Short prune crops In France and Italy are given as reasons for the unusual demand for prunes from the northwewt In Europe during the present ecason. The article forms an lntportant part of the diet of the Kuropean of the middle class and the northwestern prune close ly resembles that to which those markets are accustomed. The North Pacific Cooperative Prune exchange, which includes 10 locals and approximately 40 per cent of the western Oregon grow ers, has thus far handled about 5.000,000 pounds. Roughly speak in, 3,750,000 pounds have been sent to foreign countries. Officials of the exchange said that the crop had been about half handled, which would put the foreign ship ments In excess of 7,500,000 pounds from the members of the association and the domestic sales at 2,500,000 pounds. In Washington 4,500,000 pounds have been shipped through the Washington tlrowers Packing cor poratlon, which handles a substan tial proportion of that state's prunes. About 65 per cent of the fruit of the Washington corpora tion lias been sent to Europe. That the opportunity for the sale of prunes from the northwest which presented Itself after the failures of the European crops, will prove a means of obtaining a permanent foot hold abroad is the belief of prune men. Germany bought about 35 per cent of all the prunes sent to Eu rope this year. With a food short age and deaplte more or less in secure economic conditions, Ham burg has been made the distri buting point for several millions of pounds of dried fruit from Oregon One of the peculiarities of the Ger man trade, to which the shippers have acceded. Is the preference for bags as containers rather than the i' sunt 25-pound and 60-pound boxes. Next In order In extent of pur chases was England, which will take-about 30 per cent. A smaller amount will be used in England than in Germany, however, be cause of the fact that a portion of the 30 per cent was to have been reshlpped to llritlsh possessions in the south and Far East. The Scandinavian countries. In cluding Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland, ranked next in amount purchased, ani were re garded by officials as the most suitable customers of any on the list. Prunes were sent to countries of southern Europe, although quan titles were not appreciable. Con siderable supply was sent to cities of the Balkan states, and there was a shipment to Naples. Belgium re ceived a substantial quantity. Milk prices to producers In the Pacific group of eta tea, which ln- cludej Oregon showed no chani;e for December as compared with the preceding month and consid erably lower the same months la.-t year, according to a report of the Sears-Roe buck Agricultural Foundation. While the rnnge of prices paid producers is wide, depending some average price for standard graden milk, 3.5 per cent butterfat, fur Docember fn this territory was $2.60 per hundred pounds as com pared with $2.90 for December a year ago. Prices paid by dealers for this quality raw milk delivered at the freight stall oils In Salem are re ported by the government to be $1.75 per hundredweight. This fig ure may be compared with the av erage above quoted ns being paid to producers throughout the ter ritory, not forgetting to make al lowances for freight and handling charges between the country ship ping station and the city terminal m which the dealer received it. The prevailing retail price of standard grade milk delivered bot tled to the family trade here is 12 cents per quart, the report states. Some typical prices for equivalent milk in other cities are as follow?: Birmingham, Ala 17 to 18c Chicago, 111 i4c Peoria, III 12c Indianapolis, Ind. i St. Louis, Mo .' ...... 1 3c Washington, I).
