Wells of the firm of Young & Wells, apple buyer, was In Sa lem this morning from his new homo in Portland, with the an nouncement that arrangements wero getting well under way for their season's operations of anDle shipping out of tho valley, and with the added announcement that Salem will bo one of their head quarters again this fall on the ap ple deal. Aside from hero packing houses also will bo established in Alpine, Uorvauis, creswell and Newberg. 'We oxpect to ship the majority of apples from tho Salem district this year," stated Wells, "In all probability this district will pro duce about 10 or 12 cars. We have been in touch with a majority of tho growers in tho district and will pay Cash for nil tho apples we buy, the price depending on the quality In tho various orchards. Wo havo bought the entire crop of apples in tho Alpine dis trict and expect to handle from 15 to 20 cars out of there and at Cres well have bought tho largest blocks with the expectation of handling 20 cars from that point. We have made no deals at Newberg yet but expect to close a number of them there In the next day or two as we have 'been having negotiations' with the largest growers In that sec tion. Tho biggest bulk of the apple crop this year will be Spitzenbergs, with the Jonathans next. New- towns are lighter, with tho lightest crop of that variety showing up for some time. Homo Beauties will produce a fair crop. l-rult for export will be very light this year, and this Is an un fortunate situation as there Is a heavy demand for export stuff. The apples aro taking on too much size to permit any amount for ex port shipment, and apparently for this reason, too, the domestic mar ket will bo flooded. ' "While the Oregon crop Is llsht. nevertheless there is a good crop generally this year and thero la no reason for growers to hold off for bettor prices os th emarkct will not warrant It, I have a letter from my partner at Yakima stat ing that growers thero will take al most any kln.l of a cash price of fered. The fact of the matter Is that cash buyers are not very thick anywhere this year, and I am cer tain I am the only cash buyer who has showed up In the Willamette valley. "Supplies also will run a little higher this year. Jinxes are cost ing two cents more apiece and pap er will be a little higher." Wells stated he expected apple packing hero to start about Sep tember 20. Salem Markets Uoniillc4l from reports ol tin loin dealers (or Hie guidance, of Capital Journal readers. (Hcvlsed dally.)

Englishmen, excepting in rare in- fltances, never wear diamonds, es pecially ne rings, and and on this account they never are 6een in the jewelry shops until spring 'ion the tourist season opens. Dealers here say the Americans are buying fewer diamonds than formerly. This is attributed to the fact that the stones are ap proximately &s dear here as in the United States now that the pound s.erling is virtually at par, and in addition purchasers are expect ed to pay the 60 per cent duty when arriving on the other side.
