PAGE TEN THE CAPITAL JOURNAL. SALEM. OREGON THURSDAY, MARCH 21, 1929 BUTTER Wide Spread Evidenced In Quotations Portland. (IK For the last ses sion prime first cubes were off half cent and first one cent a pound. The differential or spread between top and bottom cube butter Is but si's cents a pound. Make of butter Is increasing rap- Idly all through this section which calls for additional easiness in the trade trend. However, prices In the south are holding fairly well, al though not as good as those In el feet here. Most of the present egg movement appears In the direction of coolers. The only price change for the late session of the dairy exchange was a loss of one cent for medium firsts. This remains the low market of the coast. Active demand is continued In the live chicken trade with no general change In the price list. Receipts are somewhat more liberal especially as -regards small broilers. Under I' pounds thev are hard to move. Quality of present turkey arrivals Is such as to keep the demand at a low point. There is a limited call for good stuff with former prices still generally available. There remains a scarcity of light' weight quality calves along the wholesale way. Receipts are inade quate to take care of demand and prices are firm. Heavier sorts are in call at unusually good values. Hogs are firm. Bulls and goats are In demand, Supplies of asparagus are more liberal but not yet sufficient to create a material price reduction, in fact the best stuff Is still selling as high as 30 cents pound with the low at 25 cents. Market for onions Is almost life less at the source for carload lots Some consignments are reported. Growers are much more willing to do business at $2.50 but there are few buyers In sight. California is expecting Texas Bermudas next While some firms, more or less loyal to local, are still trying to get an extreme price for southern broc coli, the Roseburg stock Is showing Improved quality. In regular or large crates sales are being made up to $1.75 generally. A few higher or low er. Orange market still congested with small stuff. Florida oranges moving fairly well around $5.50 box. New potatoes are listed at 12 to 14 cents pound. -Old potato market remains quiet with prices nominally ustea. SURVIVORS LOOK ON AS VICTIMS BURN (Continued from Page 1) The engines of both trains were piled In a mass of wreckage. A bag gage car on the east bound train was wrecked, as were the colonist car and a baggage car of the west bound train. The next two cars were derailed. The only Identified dead were six members of the train crews. They were Conductor Barstead, Brakeman Ferguson, Brakeman White, News Agent Miller, Fireman Smith and Express Messenger Strutt. Paul Gauvreau, engineer of the east bound train suffered fractures of both legs and severe burns from steam. G. V. Alexander, engineer of the west bound train jumped at the moment of impact and escaped with slight injuries. The west bound train running by a switch was given by some of the passengers as the cause of the col lision but A, E. Warren, general manager of the central division or the railroad, said the cause had not been determined. Passengers asleep In the Pullmans escaped. Investigations by the Dominion board of railway commissioners and the Canadian National railways, in addition to the official Inquest by the coroner are expected to start Thursday to determine the respon sibility for the collision. Reasons are sought for the appar ent disregard of an order by which the two Toronto-Winnipeg trains were Intended to pass at a switch near Drocourt. REBEL CAPTURED IN BATTLE SNOT (Continued from PiiroI) flic attack which had been expected several hours previous. Tho federal garrison numbers 2,500 effectives and the attacking rebels seemed to be two to three thousand strong, government offices were Informed. The strongly en trenched position of the federals and the topography of the city, which makes Mazatlnn easy to defend, In clined the government to believe that forces now there were amply sufficient for the defense. It was believed that General Cal Jes would not immediately deploy any of his men from Torrcon to reinforce the Mazatlnn garrison. General Calles is somewhere between Torrcon and Chihuahua City In pursuit of the rebels, tho govern ment announced. , Reports that the rebels had cap tured Durango were received but could not be confirmed. A rebel advance on the federal stronghold of Naco on the border n.'.-o was threatened. The insudgents claim that their strategy Is to draw General Calles northward Into a trap, to cut him off t: m reinforcement and then to launch a major drive against him, Rebel headquarters reported the capture of Puebla and Guanajuota nea Mexico City, but there was no confirmation of this. General Jesus Agulrre, leader of tho defeated Insurgent In Vera Cru. was captured and Is under stood to have been court martial led nd executed.

Details were made available Thursday through Roy Hurst, ol the Hurst-Root company. The latter organization Is to estah llsh exclusive sales agencies through an agreement reached at the West Stayton meeting. That Is, the Hurst-Root company will take care of all cauliflower which Is to be handled in carload lots. Growers of the West Stayton dis trict, Mr. Hurst said, are pledged to put no less than 75 acres in cauli flower. It Is entirely possible, It was explained, that the acreage may approximate 100 acres. At the meeting E. R. Clark was chosen president; V. O. Tyler, was elected secretary and treasurer and the directors selected are as fol lows: Harley Johnson, J. J. Kendel, A. 8. Woosley, W. O. Royce and R. E. Tyler. The deal was sponsored and made possible, financially, through the efforts of J. W. Mayo, of the Stay ton bank. PRUNE THRIP DUE TO SHOW HEAD SOON Dallas The prune thrip which caused such conversational stir during the past two seasons should put In Its appearance either this week or next. The amount of dam age caused by this Insect has been a debatable issue and the matter of controlling It Is still In the ex perimental stage. Trials conducted over a period of two or three years have indicated that considerable success is exper ienced when a spray consisting of two gallons of oil emulsion and three-fourths pint of nicotine sul phate are mixed with 100 gallons of water. The resulting spray should be put on as soon as the thrips make their appearance and a fine driving spray is of Importance. From Inquiries received in the office of the county agent there are indications that some orchard lsts arc planning on using this spray this season. The thrip put In its appearance March 12 in 1026, March 17, 1927 and on March id in Jiran. Salem Markets Compiled from Reports of Snlem dealers, for the guidance of Capital Journul readers.

T E CHERRY POOL Expressing great confidence In the territory surrounding Salem and manifesting this confidence by In creasing their cherry pool and by leasing the Terminal Ice & Cold Storage planta .plant which, It claims, Is one of the best equipped in the northwest, the Hurst-Hoot company, of Salem, have declared their Intentions for the coming season. "Our pre-cooling rooms," explained Roy Hurst Thursday, "are equipped so as to cool the fruit before ship ment with dry cold air. This new arrangement we believe is a great and very necessary step forward in the interests of the cherry and prune shipping Industry. "This new arrangement will put out Willamette valley deals on a par with all the better deals In the northwest." Mr. Hurst again expressed con fidence in tho Willamette valley and said he believed the organization with which he Is identified should ship from Salem no less than 50 carloads of cherries. "It is our intention' he added, "to make Salem the hub of our deals, and al cherries from outside will be brought to this city. Offices of his company are located on Front street, one block east of the Kings plant. It will be opened May 15, at which time growers are urged to visit the fruit men. GERMANY OFFERED CUT IN WAR DEBT (Continued from Page 1) leaders of German industry and finance. The figure of 1,750,000,000 marks Li understood to represent repara tions payments of all categories. Tills would entail a reduction of the present annuities under the Dawes plan of between seven and eight hundred million gold marks. The 1,750,000,000 mnrks figure was guarded with the greatest secrecy; consequently, when it was learned, there was no attendant explanation or comment to indicate the number of annuities, or If as generally sup posed. It was the first f inure of a schedule of rising annual totals. Thus it appeared that the min imum which Germany's creditors will accept Is In fact the equivalent of the fourth year's Dawes annuity, payment of which was completed August 31, 1928.

Morgan called Thursday afternoon to speak a few words of condolence to Mme. Foch. He signed the visitor's register. Marshal Joffre and Ambassador Herrlck both called about noon. Upon a high catafalque over which hung a canopy of black studded with silver embroidery the body of Mar shal Foch was laid Thursday after noon, that friends of the family and high dignitaries of France might take farewell before the public lying- in-state. Fach was dressed in his campaign uniform. The dark blue overcoat which he wore when he entered Strasbourg lay over his knees. The five stars of his rank as marshal gleamed from the lower part of his sleeves. His breast was covered with medals which a grateful father land and other nations to whose flags he brought victories had be stowed upon him. Six tall tapers were burning at each side of the catafalque and at the foot were tall golden candle sticks each bearing ten candles. The marshals widow, his daugh ters and his brother, sat in front of a prie-deius at the foot of the bed, while In a corner a few feet away, two sisters of tho order of "Money saved is money earned" Huntington Soles outwear leather 2 to 1 and that means real economy.

Garage COUNTY OFFERS POISON BARLEY FOR SQUIRRELS At the present time the one ob ject which is claiming more atten tion from more farmers than any other object Is the squirrel. so are willing to testify 8. H. Van Trump, county horticulturist; County Judge Slegmund and Com missioner J. E. Smith. They said so Wednesday. One-half ton or poisoned barley has been prepared by the county and now may be purchased from various places In various towns, it was explained. in Salem the barley may be bought at the county treasurer's! office. In other communities itj may be purchased from the com munity banks. "It is true, certainly, that many persons even fanners don't real ize how much the 'gray digger' can do", said Mr, Van Trump. And, In addition, said Commis sioner Smith: "Ask the farmers to poison, not only for their own fields, but for fields adjacent. Ask them to place poison all around the fields even along the boundary lines In some Instances." The squirrels, it was explained, are worst when they burrow un der. It is then that they accom plish the most harm.-. It is now right now that the quirrel should be looked after, Mr. Van Trump said. One mother squirrel alone today will prob ably oe responsible for six later on. The damage which might spring from this single squirrel, it was ex plained, might rmount to as much as $20. Wheat and corn are damaged chiefly by the squirrel, it was ex plained. St. tVncent De Paul from time to time said their rosaries in low tones. Poch's face was thin, but not emaci ated. The weight he lost during his long illness had but sharpened the reatures so.iamiiiar to all the world. His bronzed skin had paled only a little with confinement in a sick room, and still had the sunburnt color of a man who has passed most of his life in the open air. So great was the desire of the people of Paris to pay their personal tribute that by mid-afternoon, crowds pack ed both sides of the Rue de Grenelle for the whole length of the block in which the Foch home Is situated. The police erected a temnorarv ence in tne court yard of the house McKay's For Used Cars With An O. K.

Several thousand men and women of all ages and conditions of life were standing silently in the neighborhood. At 5 o'clock the crowd had grown so dense that squadrons of the mounted republican guard with plumed helmets and burnished cuirasses were summoned to keep the streets clear. MARION, POLK FOLK BILKED OUT OF COIN (Continued from Page 1) the legislature meeting In Salem and on account of the squawks we have been having, that all salesmen stay out of Marion and Polk coun ties until after the legislature ad journs." E. A. Hay, state manager of the organization, adds that "we expect a certain number of squawks which we feel capable of handling. How ever, we must insist that the above be adhered to until after the legis lature adpourns. Mr. Carson has been assured by the Portland Better Business bu reau that he will have no difficulty In securing Indictments against whomever he finds associated with the organization. According to the Portland bureau, It is operating In violation of the law and has no state license. A number of Marlon county farmers already have complained to the district attorney's office.
