In a recent issue of the Kentish Observer, English paper just re ceived here, the hop controller for the empire Is reported as saying that the stock of hops now held by the controller is valiod at 700,000 pounds. The report states that these have depreciated In value In stor age somewhat and It would be dif ficult to give a statement as to their actual value unless the ef fects of the removnl of the con trol la seen. The some paper sIbo carries ar ticles regard to efforts being maile In the Kentish district to form the hopgrowors Into a co-operative or ganization, and of meetings being held In various placet) In the dis trict promoting such a plan.

Dixon, manage of the Pacific Cooperative Poultry Producers, that his nnsoclutloi would offer eggs commencing this morning 4 cents under the change price. The announcement means opon Warfare between the dairy ex change and Die egg association, Relations between the ludepend nt dealers and the association on the exchange have been strained fur some time and further ad vances in the market yesterday re - Bulled in lite open breaK. For the past week the local egg market has been advancing though It is still considerably out of line with other coast markets. Extras were bid and sold at cents during the season and nnoth er offer of 42 cents was made by a mcmoer on ti.o floor. This start d the fire works. It is the view of tho association manager that the local egg marke Is being nifinipulated In the Inter' est of storage operators, as e-v cent advance in tho open market naturally heliw the price of stor Age eggs. Assocl'ition officials nln to the fact that there are npproxl mutely 80,000 cases In Portland coolors nB compared to 63,000 cases a year ago. Other members of the exchange which consists of dairy produce dealers and Jobbers, pruvlHlon nouses and packing interests, main tain thnt there Is another side, to the fight. The. assert that the association manager has always furred a policy of holding tho local market down in order that he can how his grower members a good return on eggs shipped east a. compared to l ho Portland prices. In rVHK'ratlvc The association Is a co-operative organization consisting of ome 1200 poultry producers In the atate. Their oggs are nwcruhlcd at the Portland warehouse, graded nd shipped In carload lots to east ern markets, Inrgoly to New York. Under this collective marketing. Ihey reduce costs of handling. Local priced have been advanc ing recently, ntlaining the 42 rent level on extras today. This level is considered unbearable by the as linclatlon manager, but other ex change members stale It Is not un reasonable with Han Franclnco 4fi cents, I ,os A n k c I es ft 0 cents and Now York 68 cents on coant ex tras. Today buyers are offering 37 to 88 cents In the country for white hennery extras and 33 cents for mixed colored standards delivered Portland. Portland Market White springs are now on a par tly with colored stock in the locnl poultry market, both being quoted at 25 cents. Light hens are firm er at 15 to 18 cents; heavy hens 24 cents and Pekln ducks 25 cents. Receipts moderate and the de mand good.

Hynen, Home, Italy, In a report to the united states department of com merce. The business done In Aus tralian, Greek and Smyrna raisins and currantft was extremely light during June. Latest Information Indicates that tho early reports of short Austral ian Sultana and currant crops were ggeratcu. Australian li25 pro duction is now placed at 25,000 tons of Sultanas, 10,000 tons of currants and 5000 tons of rnlslna. While this Is a "short" crop con sidering the new acreage which came into bearing this year, so far as actual tonnage goes it is ap proximately the same ae the 1924 output. Early reports that the 1925 crop of Australian Sultanas and currants was of Inferior quality also appear to have been exaggerated. The first shipments of Sultanas which arrived on the English market were below average, but later ar rivals are said to be equal in qual ity to 1924 crop fruit. tlon of prunes. On the basis of present Information from the trade all Indications point to a below average crop for 1925,, states Am erican Contort Luclen Memmlnger, Bordeaux, France, In a report re calved In our department of com merce. Later advices from Con sul Memmlnger enclose a crop re port by tho editor of a French ag ricultural Journal, who had recent ly mado a tour of the prune grow ig region In southwest France, which reads: "The crop will be very unequal for the entire region as a whole. In tho center practically no crop will be obtained. In tho valley of the Lot the crop Is not very abund ant but according to present pros pects tho fruit will be oi largo slzo. For the region as a whole tho de ficit for this year's crop is esti mated at about 3307 net tons. Tha entire crop for this year will prob ably amount to about 2766 net tons." During the six months period from January to June, 1925, 2,356,276 pounds of prunes wer Imported Into the port of Bordeaux from the United States. United States Department of Commorce.

NOT YET FIXED , In California peaches It is under stood that prices will not be nam ed until alter the end of next week when the Peach association's di rectors will meet for that purpose. says the California Fruit News. It may, accordingly, be accept ed as a good gueis that September 7 may see a peach price announce ment by the association. In the meantime, tho trade is rather wait ing on this latter situation and there is no change in the dried peach market and comparatively little new business passing. Apri cots are steady at previous values, as are all of the other lines this week. Pears are easy under a larger supply than anticipated as a result, for ono thing, of the low er prices east for fresh. Prunes continue to be active and more particularly recently in the foreign demund. England and Franco have been buying prunes rather actively of late. The French crop Is so nearly nominal that they will need to import good quanti ties from here for home uao there. Germany ie not so actively in the California prune market Just now, their markets there waiting rather upon the more definite settlin;; down of the Bosnian-Servian situa tion, and. also, there are no active quantities of tho small sizes, which they usually want over there, that are offering from here lust now. Packers for the most part have sold out their prunes purchased from, tne association nnd are now doing business largely against pur chases from growers outside of the association, which are being bought at comparative values so tnat tne use u uncnangeu. Most packers are quoting steadily upon the same list as the association. WHEAT AND CORN SHOW DECLINES W ho I osa to r liccs Grain: No. 1 white wheat $1.38; No. 1 red wheat $1.34 (sacked).
