EGGS DECLINE
Portlund, Ore., Dec 22 (A. P.)
-"It looks very much ns if values
Kill tuko a none dive In the local
turkey market In the very near
future. A tail si) In was apparent
this morning us retail dealers held
off and stocks along the street be
gan to accumulate.
Buyers will not take hold at the
45 cents level and soma of them
frankly admit that they cannot
pay over 40 cents and hope to
imtke a profit. Ho far the butchers
have been buying In a meager way,
ordering Just enough birds for dis
play or to fill rt'Kulur orders.
The surplus on the street Is not
largo enough to bo alarming If
the buyers would take hold, but
with the trade holding off and re
fusing to pay the present levels,
the market is bound to slump.
A few select birds In small lots
brought 45 cents during the early
trade tortuy but it wus impossible
to get over 42 to 43 cents for quan
tlty lots.
Other lines of dressed poultry
with the exception of geese, moved
out well and prices were fully main
tained. Dressed geese are plentiful
and the demand slow. The market
to weuk.
Another drastic decline has tuk
h pluco in the local egg market
and today fresh graded stocks are
1 to 2 cents lower on tho exchange
.Fresh standard extras are posted
at 30 cents. Extras, pullets and un
dersized dropped two cents while
firsts and current receipts were
posted 1 cent lower.
The local buttor market Is Blip
ping and a decline in prints Is ex
pected by the trade. In the cube
market standards and prime firsts
arc down a cent, whilo extras and
firsts nro off a half cent.
Country dressed meats continue
toady wlih no change in prices.
.Buyers centering their interest on
tho turkey market today and move
mcnt of veal and pork is limited.
Receipts moderate Top calves and
hogs 16 cents.
The cranberry market Is slow
With prices easier. Coast stocks sell

ILY TO BE
LONG DRAWN OUT
The latest litigation of the Phcje
unpany against tho Salem Fruit
union und a largo mini tier of lo
ganberry growers, promises to be
as long drawn out ns the first,
when tne i'hoz company won over
tho fruit union, taking a Judgment
of over $110,000 nnd cleaning up
the assets of tho fruit union, lu
lu din lt its building ut Trado and
High streets.
(J. A. Miller and Fred C. Ewing,
two of tho grower defendants in
the latest action of the Phez com
pany, declared today that the grow
ors contemplate fighting tho l'hoz
company to tho tinisli nnd will
carry tho fight to the highest
court open to 1 hem before- lying
down In tho strife.
Tho now ease Is brought by the
$15,000 which It alleges Die various
growers owe It In an aggregato rep
resenting damages of 10 cents a
rate for luganhorrlea which the
Phea company claims the grow em
failed to deliver under their con
tracls. Mr. Miller and Mr. Ewing state
that Oscar Jluylor of Dallas rind
liny F. Shields of Portland have
been retained by tho growers to
take up the legal cudgel against
tho PIipz company for them.
We have virtually all of the de
fendants in with us on this move
fight these cases," said Miller
today. "Wo Intend to fight to the
bitter end We oxpect to have all
of them with us before the legal
battle actually opens. About SO peo
pie nro represented on tho defend
ant's side In tliis cano and no stone
will bo left unturned to defeat the
hnrges mnde."
Tho original case went Into tho
supremo court twice before de
cision finally come down against
the fruit union and tho growers
nd bringing a mandate that the
'rowers must pny nn assessment
of 10 cents a crate. An effort was
mnde to collect under this man
date, but growers refused to pay
and tho company Is now endeavor
ing to move to a new Judgment to
cover tho nmounts Involved.

For the park committee Ahl
mail Gin hen horat reported that
.Mr. Ky had agreed to sell the city
tho pa rk for $ U 5 0 0, ins ten d of
$7i8ii.ltt, the orlRlnal price naked.
I la recommended that the council
vote to buy It, the terms to be fix
ed later.
Daney ami Purvlne Immediately
objected to nny binding action be
ing taken before terms -were defi
nitely fixed. gt
"Air. Kay will agree to any ri-Konnhle-
terms,' said Koseliraugh.
"I think he will," answered
Dancy, 'but I object to tieing the
city up in this way.''
"Why qitration n man of Mr.
Kay's standing? This thing hnw
been hanging fire rver ednce I can
remember,' said Alderman Will
lams. "For heaven's sake let's gel
It settled."
Ptirvine moved that there be In
serted In the resolution the words
"if reasonable terms can be made.
A recess ensued during which
there was a wrangle over the
wording and the miyor and Itose-
braugu were heard in a b tor my
flst-to.
"That will tic the city up?"

nrotc-sted the mayor.
"OE course it will. That's juet
what wo want to do hind our
selves' shouted liosebraugh frank
iy.
"I insist liiat something go in
there to show whore the money is
coming from," replied Mayor
Giesy, hanging his desk.
The council was railed to order
ag;:in and Patton moved that the
roport he tabled. This motion got
nowhere.
Grabenlioi'st deplored the fao.t
that the council was aain going
to fail to inform Kay as to its in
tent ions. "He could plat tho
ground and sell it for a great deal
moro than he asks the city for Jt,"
said urabcnhoi'st. .
Tho mayor said he couldn't sec
much reason for such sudden hanlr
inasnuith ns the committee hadn't'
even tallied with Kay about H up
to 1 o'clock in the afternoon.
This brought Itoeebraugh to hta;
feet in rage.
"Your statement that Hie com
mittee tlid not see Mr. Kay prior
to 1 o'clock today is not true," he
shouted, "and you know It Is not
true. You don't know what you
are talking about."
"I'm only toll you what Mr. Kay
Bald," interrupted tho mayor.
"I don't cavo what he told you,"
replied llosebratigh, "I am saying
for the committee that we saw him
hofore."
Alderman Galloway tried to pour
iil on the troubled waters by opin
ing that the members were hag
gling over a very small matter.
"Maybe It is n email mutter,"
commented Dancy. "Uut it is a
matter of principle."
Williams jumped to hifl feet.
"We pave streets," he said,
"when wo don't know whether the
property owners nro going to pay
for it from the center of the block
or from the alloy. V,i leave 17th
street, open, a chasm nnd a holl
holo from end to etui. Yet we
oomo luM-o and haggle over $(5500.
In the name of God let's net."
Willanifl shouted his speech at the
top of his voice and he has some
voice, It anyone watiH to kn.nv.
Patton'r, moiion to table went tc
vole and lost.
Tho resolution was then adopt
ed with tho inserted words, "if reu

THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON
LOCAL HEIFER
RUNNER UP FDR
F W. Durbin. owner of Lady
Iris Homestead DeKol, junior year
ling Holsteln-Friesan heifer, gave
Pabst American Beauty, winner oi
the World All-American in that
class for 1925, a close run for her
money, according to the last Iksuc
of the Holstein-Frlesan World
which Is just announcing results
on the All-American for this year.
In commenting on the contest
for the junior yearling "heifer the
magazine says:
The problem was easy in the
junior yearling class with Pubst
American Beauty receiving tho un
animous vote of the committee.
Fhls heifer has gone through a
strenuous show season undefeated
for Junior championship honors
and with three grand champions
at major fairs. Nothing but a sen
sational animal could win the jun
ior yearling class this year how
ever, ns there were two other heif
ers out good enough to receive hon
orahlo mention alongside Jr'aost
American Beauty. These were Lady
Iris Homestead De Kol .nn Ore
gon heifer, and Boiinheur Abbe-
kerk Posch 2nd or the Province
of Quebec. There probably never
has been a year when three such
heifers came out in a single class.
Unfortunately they never met in
a show ring."
The judges on the All-American
were W. S. Moscrlp, who judged
at the National Dairy show and Pa
cific International; Axel Hansen
who Judged the bfg eastern states
exposition nnd John L. Smith who
judged at Waterloo, Iowa.
Tho same magazine nlso contains
a plctUi-C of Sir Walker Inlta Home
stead, which took first prize at the
Oregon Stnte fair, sgod bull, sen
ior nnd grand champion.
Oregon took two places In the
Ail-American contest.

chased 80 bales of this year's crop
at 21 cents. McNoff also paid 21
cents for a lot and Smith & John
