EGGS ADVANCE,
VEAL AND PORK
OFF HALF CENT
Portland, Ore.. (IP) Further ad
vance in the price of eggs on the
dairy exchange and on the open
market Indicates perhaps the great
est scramble for storage needs the
local Industry has known.
On the dairy exchange for the late
session, extras moved to a new high
point for the session at 32 cents
dozen while standards were 33 cents
dozen. Medium extras were up to 28
cents with one cent rise, while med
ium firsts and under-sized were up
half a cent for the session.
Market for butter Is showing un
seasonable strength locally and
throughout the country generally.
An advance ol hall cent in stanaara
cubes on the dairy exchange fol
lowed recent premiums of that much
on the open market. In fact further
premiums are reported above the
market.
Very little, If any change Is
shown in the general trend of the
live poultry market. Lightweight
hens and broilers are in lull supply
while heavy stuff it. both divisions
Is sought.
Verv (rood tone continues in the
market for country killed hogs but
16 cents Is the general top even for
selected light butchers. Talk of more

do little of this business.
Fancy quality country killed calv
es are finding a very good call but
20 cents is the tip top price now.
generally available. Beef is in good
demand with sales of bulls 15J.i to
16 cents pound.
Dr. Lytle. state veterinarian, at a
meeting with the commission men
and wholesalers in country meat
products, Wednesday night explain
ed the working of the new meat law.
The commission men were given
several months to get the system
working before prosecutions will
start. The country is given to un
derstand that farmers can kill and
ship meats as heretofore. Before
killing, the owners of livestock must
secure a free certificate from the
sheriff.
Price of new potatoes again being
lowered by the wholesale trade. Low
er prices are Bhown in California
and the keeping quality is such that
wholesalers want no delay in the
movement. The Dalles stock Is be
ginning to make an impression here.
Old potatoes very firm and scarce.
Further general reduction in cab
bage prices is shown as a result of
the Increasing stocks of home grown.
Fancy main crop varieties are now
being offered from The Dalles dis

BLACK CHERRY
DEAL UNDERWAY
AT LEWISTON
Charles Anderson, foreman for
Young & Wells fruit shippers. Is
leaving Thursday fo r Lewis ton. Ida
ho, where black cherry shipping has
just got under way and will help in
Handling tne company's deal there.
He stated that a man would remain
in the local offices of the firm here
to take care of new contracts and
keep the local situation In shape
until shipping season.
Anderson said that he expected
the shipping season would start here
July 1 and that his firm would be
in line not only for black cherries
but for some Royal Annes which
will probably be handled In Mc
Minnville where the firm has od-
ened cannery operations.
I was at Eugene the other day
and we looked over the orchards
there. There are no Indications of
brown rot either here or there yet,
out it is very eany and if this wea
ther should keep up it might prove
something serious later. What Is
needed for the cherries Is warm,
dry, sunny weather.
"The crop around here is spotted
some places a third, some places a
half a crop, and It is probable they
will run all told at around a little
less than half a crop. However, there
is no reason why the berries should
not be of very good quality if we
get some sunny, warm weather,
which we are looking for every day
out naven t experienced to any ex
tent yet."

FRANCE TO PROTECT
OWN FILM INDUSTRY
Paris (LP) The report of the sub
committee of the film commission
on the new French import restric
tions was presented to Francois
Poncet, minister of Beaux Arte
Wednesday. Its terms were so
drastic that American film men
were preparing to suspend business
in France unless Poncet overrode
the recommendations.
Th report, if adopted, would make
effective the four-to-one quota,
compelling American film compan
ies to buy one French film for every
four they released in this country.
The report would abolish blind
booking which would be a serious
handicap to the Americans.

COURT LOOKING
OVER PROPOSED
ROUTE OF ROAD
The county court was up In the
Mills Wednesday looking over .the
Crooked Finger counti above ScotU
proposed strip of market road on
this five-year program. How much
of this can be done this year Is not
definitely decided, but the road Is
down for a two-mile improvement
as a market road.
It is likely the road will be wid
ened this year and it may be from
half to a mile of it wilt be graveled.
The road is now 40-feet wide and
it will be up to the property owners
along the way to widen it out to
50 feet by setting their fences back.
The court also looked for a gravel
pit location which they think they
have located to provide the mater
ials for the road.
The present road has a hard rock
center, with a very high crown. It
is so hard it would be difficult to
cut it down much so after widening;
n will oe bunt up from the sides to
fit the crown.
Some of the court also went over
the Independence and Ankeny bill
roads where grading crews are work
ing on each road. Deputy County
Roadmaster Johnson went along oil
both trips.
