Plays Polo as Plots Pop Portland, Aug. 31 Although hop picking is well started in thin state , and a large part of the crop bol- d and stored, there la little or no Dusinesa paflBirtff at tne moment. There is more or less a deadlock In the market with buyers unwill ing to go over 18 cents for clusters j and 19 cents for fugglea, while growers are holding out for least 20 cents. Nineteen cents has been paid In come instances for exceptional lots but the market Is largely nominal with only a very few sales of new crop transacted so iar. Practically all of the old crop hflfl been disponed of and there is little or no curry ovor into the new eeaaon. An occasional bale may be found hero nnd there but old i stocki are well scattered. Growers report the harvest of the new crop turning out as good as expected nnd while the yield Is i only fair the quality Is good. With the English hop situation none too encouraging, and the light carry over in this country, producers are optimistic and look for higher prices to rule later.

Are Your School Kiddies Physically Fit By Allan Craig, M. D.. Member Gorgas Memorial Institute Our leading citizens. 25,000.000 of them, are returning to school this week. Unless each ono Is physically fit, ho Ib going to bo handicapped in hla advancement In learning during the coming'nlue months. Do you actually know if your children are in good shape for this year's work? Do you know wheth er they have any decayed teeth, infected tonsils, adenoids or are under weight? Children with any of these things aro seriously handicapped. This Is no theoretic observation but a proven fact, well known to the Corgas Memor ial Institute. Only periodic health examina tions will disclose what Is wrong with the body machine; and these health audits nre a profitable In vent mon t for any ho tne. Disease will be fore-stalled nnd the child will make greater progress bo I onuse therfe Is nothing wrong with Ills body to hotd him hack. Make mro right now that your child Is fit. Correct any defect when cor rection 1b easiest. Thero are physical examin ations, however, which aro useless. A careless examination is worse than none at all herniise it creates falso Impressions of safety. The child should be stripped and gone over carefully from head to foot no careless examination through the clothing. Make the doctor the health adviser In tho family, Just. as wo make our lawyer our legal adviser. Cvery home should have a set of weighing scales In tho bathroom. The weight la a valuable Indica tion of progress In growing chil dren. Stationary weight In a child Is equal to a steady loss Id an adult. If your boy or girl Is not guining weight, there Is some thing wrong and It is up to your doctor to find out what it is. Good, nourishing food at regu lar hours, Blowly eaten and not grabbed in unmastlcaled Jumps, will help our boys and girls to wards steady growth and develop ment. A good old slogan rendu thus: ""Invite good health and econ omy to dine with you every day." Eat more bread and butter and drink jnore milk. " This would be a good motto for every home and especially those where there are growing children. One might add a word as to the desirability of plenty of fresh vegetables and fruit. Periodic visits to tho dentist are a necessity. Why Bliould we al low tho children's second teeth to unie In out of place and In an un sightly manner when, by a little caro at the right time, this can be avoided? Kveryono is desirous of having good teeth, evenly placed, and our children, when they grow up, nre going to blame us for deficiencies which are due to our neglect. It Is remarkable how rapidly small cavities develop in children's teeth, particularly If t hey nre somewhat careless, as most children arc. In ,111c uxe of the tooth brush. Few of us clean our teeth thoroughly. Wc are so often deceived by the fact that wo are using a pleasant paste or a soothing mouth wash, it Ih the scrub hlng with tho brush thit does tho work. Then too thero Is always n tendency to neglect cor-1 tain groups of tc'H'i such as the upper hack molars. E YIELD QUARTER ILC HAND CORN CONTINUE SLUM D ONIONS AND POTATO F.R Portland, ()r Aug.

ASSOCIATION TO CUT OVERHEAD EXPENSE The California Prune and Apri cot tirowera awsociat Ion will cut down Its overhead nnd cost in packing this year to the lowest pon slblo point. President Cacnllaro re cently announced, by concentrating Its Ducking in a few of the plontn. says tho California Krult News. Ite- auso of tlio sales or unpacKea nrunes to commercial pacKers. there will not be o much for the association to pack nnd It will consequently he possible to oper ate fewer packing nouses man usual by concentrating the opera tions and limning full time at a few rather than part time at a larg er number of the plants. This will apply not only to the Pint a lara valley, but to other parts or the state as wrlh 1 "It le hardly probable that the prunes yield in Yamhill county will be in exceaa of 25 to 30 per cent of a normal crop. Moat reports, how ever, Indicate that the Hize will grade large, and that the recent rains will cauno the prunes to be much lnrgor and Letter in quality. This Is the opinion expressed by the Mc.MinnvJIlo bank in Ita an nual prune and walnut crop num mary. Conditions in Marlon and X'olk counties are reported to be nearly the Annie. On the other hnnd an unusually good crop from 35 to 50 per cent above laat year's yield Ik predicted hi tho report. Blight la showing up to a limited extent, and the treea ore shedding considerably, but as this shedding practically r'o- uevva me trees or tne blighted nuts me season's crop will be corres pondingly cleaner. The raponl rutn has been hlghl beneficial In that it will caua? the nuLs tn bn fuiiv aim-a una oi nigner quality.

J lie report summarizes the prune situation In every center of xamnui countv. Tb t iin.n.-.rv follows: Amity On the hills tho rnn in very Jigiu; in tne root-hilla and valleys, on tho younger trecw, there is Indication of an average of 50 to 60 per cent of a normal crop. Bellevue Tho foot-hill orchards Indicate a, yield of approximately 30 to 35 per cent and tho prunes are of unusually large size. Carlton 20 to 30 per cent of a normal yield is tho report of sev eral growera in this district. With the younger orchards bearing alight ly heaWer than others, the report would probably justify an estimate of one third of a normal crop. Dayton Reports from this dis trict indicate that the younger or chards Will have 35 to 40 nor ronl of a normal crop, while tho older orcnarus snow 25 to 30 per cent. uumiec un tne higher Inndi crops seem to be rather light, while on lower foot-hill land where or cha rds received careful attention, indications are for a yield of ap proximately 46 per cent of nor mal. Lafayette The older orchards show 15 to 20 per cent of a normal yield, with 40 to 50 per cent of the younger orchards on lower ind. ' McMinnvllle Orchnrdo on the foot-hills northwest of this citv be ing older lootings, tho crop is re ported very light, possibly not to j exceed 1 5 20 per cent of nor-j mal, while orchards on the lower level nnd younger plantings will run 40 to 50 per cent. Newberg Xowberg district re ports aro approximately tho same as tho.se from Dundee. the older orchard! bearing rather light, nnd the youiXi'i plantings on lower land yielding from 40 to 50 per cent nf normal. Hherldan In this district most of tho orchards are on the higher levnllon, but tho trees aro not unite so old as those of other plant ings throughout the county, nnd pro-specis are reported to be for a yield of 35 to 40 per cent of normal. Y;i rnh 111 On the uplands the plnntmrs or prune troen are larger and older, nnd are reported as bearing very linht, possibly not more than 15 per cent, while on the foot-hills and lower levels the crops wlil run 33 to 40 per cent. The prune crop report for Cali fornia Is: "The unusually wami weather during the latter half of .luno Injured tho crops In some of I ho Interior valley prune districts. The condition declined eight points and was estimated lo be 60 per rent of normal on July 1st, com pared with 66 per cent last year anil a ten-year average- of 76 per cent. Three Is an lneiwisc of about 7 per cent In the bearing acreage of prunes com pa rod with 1 024. The price is now up Vic on 30s to 50c Santa Claras, and '1 c on smaller nlzed and all outsldes. Tho carry over last year amounted to 35.000 tons; this year, 20il0 tons." California prospects for walnuts are very favorable. The condition as of July 1st was ?6 per cent of normal, compared with 76 per cent last year and a ten-year a vera pre of H4 per cent. . Approximately :t2,000 tons of Walnuts will bo pro duced if the resent condition Is maintained until hnrvest time. The product inn for If 24 was 21 .500 tons with a total bearing acreage of 7l..3!t7 neres. The market will be very good on walnuts, because there Is no carry-over. CLARKE COUNTY PRUNE GROWERS PAID WELL W. H. Wood, manager of the Washington Growers Packing cor poration, advises- that final pay ments for the 1024 prune crop of its members from Clarke county, Washington, have been mailed out. The total volumo of prunes hand led by that association in 1024 was 0,880,000 pounds, for which a gross total of $533,000 was received. The cost of packing, brokerage, cash discount and advertising wns 1.4 cents a pound, and tho net amount returned to these growers, Mr Wood announces as having been $415,000, which has now all been completely paid to them. The prune growers or that association received a return rangintr from 4c a pound for 60-70s to 914c a pound on 25-35s. with the low est overhead the association has ever had, Air. Wood says. INCREASED RATES M SUSPENDED Washington, Aug. 31 (AP) Increased express rates on fruit and vetgelables between mountain Pacific and east territories, pro posed by the American Express company, to become effective Sep tember i were ordered held In abeyance by tho Interstate com merce commission today until De cember 30. Meantime the commission will conduct an investigation to deter mine If the Increases are justified. Washington, Aug. 31 (AP) Proposed new freight schedules cancelling through joint rates on timber and related articles from Burlington, Iowa, to destinations in Pacific coast territory were order ed suspended by the Interstate commerce commission today, until December 30. Operation of tho new schedules would i--3Ult greatly In an Increase In the freight, the fairness of which the commission will determine In hearings to be held during the sus pension period, E Hogs have reached a value, for the first time since the war-period, which surpasses In purchasing pow er the value of the aerage of all commodities and also of corn, ac cording to figures supplied by the United States department of agri culture and the department of la bor. Those figures are based on returns from the July marketing and show that hog values were nigher during that month than at any time during the past six years, and for the first time since the war, tho 1910-1.914 value for the montn was surpassed. It Is particularly significant, from the producer's viewpoint, that" the price relat onshin between hues and corn improved so marketedly in favor of hogs, amounting to 110 per cent of the profitable pre-war, average. j Hog business Indexes that are prepared monthly by Dr. Tage U. H. Ellinger of the livestock bureau of Armour and company follow: liases Prewar purchasing power (1010-1914) equal 100 Prewar receipts equal 100 Hog Values July June July 1 (Purchasing power) 1925 1925 1924 In terms of all commodities 102 94 . 61 In terms of corn 110 92 64 Receipts Chicago ....107 113 162 Dr. Ellinger concludes that with a combination of high prices and low production cost, the hog busi ness is in an excellent condition. ; We are probably approaching, or i have already reached, tho highest noint in hog values In tho present cycle. Receipt figures, further more. Indicate that hogs are sun plentiful and strict conservatism should be observed not to permit undue expansion on the basis 'of existing peak price conditions. which automatically would destroy the favorable situation."
