EGGS ADVANCE
BUTTER STRONG
POULTRY FIRM
Portland, Ore. (IP) Advances in
the egg market were marked for
the late session of the Portland
dairy exchange. All classifications
were moved upward during the ses
sion. Advances were half cent to
two cents dozen with a spread of
3i cents between top and bottom
priced stock.
The decreasing supply, together
with the very keen demand, caus
ed bidders to buy at the higher
prices. This applied first to the
open market at country points
which was quickly followed by ad
vances on the exchange.
Very strong tone Is showing for
butter with prices well maintained
for cubes and prints while butter
fat figures continue at the ex
treme top generally. Most of the
butter demand Is for storage. '
Somewhat better conditions are
shown in the market for live chick
ens. In spots recovery of the lat
est decline is noted. Those that
really wanted chickens were com
pelled to pay the previous price.
Market 1tr country killed calves
Is firm. There are light offerings
and an unfilled demand. Sales in
general are 20 to 20,4 cents with an
occasional selected animal at 21
cents a pound.
Country killed hog market Is
quite active along the wholesale way
with prices generally maintained
There is a light supply. Bulls in
demand. The market for lambs is
steady at late prices.
Market for old potatoes Indicates
the extreme shortage" of offerings
with a further advance in the price
by Jobbers. New stock is Just about
steady with both local and Cam-
ornian selling within the late range.
Some very fancy Bing cherries
out of Clarkston, Wash., section are
being offered here around 20 cents
pound. Some very good stock is
also arrived from Mary Hill. Sales
are steady.
First of the new crop apples were
being displayed by the Ryan Fruit
company. They were oi ine iei
low Transparent variety and from
California. Packed in lugs of about
20 pounds and priced $3.
PLANS ARE LAID TO
SPEED SNOOK'S TRIAL
(Continued from page 1)
comDany. It was badly mutilated.
"Miss Hix remonstrated with me
against leaving the city with my
family as I had previously planned
to do," Snook's confession, as given
to Prosecutor John Chester, sam.
"She threatened if I did go she
would take the life of my wife and
baby."
He then told how he met Miss Hix
a week ago Thursday evening and
drove to the rifle range; there they
discussed the proposed trip of the
Snook family and the veterinarian
said Miss Hix became more empha
tic In her protests against him leav
ing the city, finally threatening
members of his family. They quar
relled, he said, and the girl reached
for her purse in which she carried
a 41 -calibre derringer, a gift from
Snook.
"In the struggle I hit her on the
head with a hammer which was in
the back of my coupe," the veterin
arian said. "I intended to stun her.
She continued to fight desparately
and an increased number of blows
of increasing force was necessary to
stop her. Realizing then that her
skull was fractured and to relieve
her sufferings I decided to finish
her. I severed the Jugular vein with
my pocket knife."
The hammer and the knife were
found In packing boxes in the base
ment of the Snook home Thursday,
although a previous search had fail
ed to disclose them.
Snook wept as he described his
movements after murder.
"I proceeded to pick up the things
that had been scattered about dur
ing the struggle and hurriedly left
the scene leaving her bdy at that
point. After leaving the rifle range
I went home, tossing the puree into
the Scioto river on my way. After
the struggle was over I discovered
the gun was not in the purse.
"I met Theora Hix about three
years ago. The friendship continued
In a very intimate way ever since.
Inasmuch as she was a very good
con)paiifen. I have been living with
my wife all during this three year
period and regard my wife very
highly and respect her very much as
a wife, ubt she lacked some of the
companionship afforded by Miss
Hix.
"During the three years that I
knew Miss Hix I assisted her in
many ways toward an education, i
But I found out it wasn't appreciat- I
ed as much as I thought it should
be. Our association was not a love
affair In any sense of the word. But
In time MLss Hix developed a more
determined attitude in regard to dic
tating my movements."
The first break in Snook's self
assured attitude came when he was
being taken to breakfast Thursday.
Detective Otto Phillips suddenly
asked him:
"Why did you kill her?"
"She hiid been begging me for
cocaine," snook answred. but im
mediately repudiated the statement.
DAKOTANS SEEKING
HIGHER FLAX DUTY
(Continued from page 1)
In the house, while the tne per
cent duty on screenings Is retained-
"The agriculture rates in the
house bill," Burtness said, "are bet
ter than In any tariff btll in his
tory, although they could be im
proved by raising them more in
some Instances.
P. O. Bwiboda, Plymouth, Wiscon
sin, representing the national cheese
producers federation, recommended
a duty of 9 cents a pound and not
leas than 40 per cent ad valorem on
cheese as against 5 cents and 25

PROSPECT FOR
WOOL MARKET
Boston. (P) The Commercial Bul
letin Saturday will say:
"More Inquiry is reported for wool
this week, but sales are far from
satisfactory, especially on the finer
qualities, which favor the buyer In
price. Medium wools are fairly firm.
"Operations in tne new cup nave
lessened in consequence of reduc
ed limits. Some wool, however, Is be
ing bought in the clean range of
85-88 cents, as against 88-92 cents
formerly for fine and fine medium
wools.
The manufacturing position is
not unhealthy but it continues slow
so far as new business Is concerned.
Were prices better stabilized in wool
it is possible business might be bet
ter in tops, yarns and piece goods.
Foreign markets are dun in ia-
vor of the buyer.
"Mohair is rather quiet but prices
keep fairly firm.'

INHALATOR SHOWN
TO FIRE FIGHTERS
A demonstration In the latest
methods of resuscitation from
drowning, electrical shock and
smoke suffocation was given mem
bers of the local fire department
Friday forenoon by Bill Merrtott
and L. M. Flagg, two employes of
the Portland Electric Power com
pany.
The fire department is in posses
sion of an "inhalator", the latest
equipment for use in artificial res
piration and this apparatus was
demonstrated. It was brought out
during the lecture that the pulmo-
tor hss not been in use for a num
ber of years and that the "inhal
ator" Is a far superior piece of
equipment. The tanks of the ap
paratus contain 95 per cent oxygen
and five per cent carbon dioxide
and this mixture is drawn into the
lungs through artificial respiration
methods.
According to tte demonstrators
the old pulmotor caused tubercu
losis In the persons who had been
subjected to its use, most of the re
stored victims dying from this di
sease within seven years after their
resuscitation.
SITE IS SELECTED
FOR PICKLE PLANT
Mt. Angel Libby, McNeil and
Llbby have leased from the South
ern Pacific company the parcel of
land north of the Fred Schwab
Commission company warehouse,
extending north to the stock yards
on the Southern Pacific tracks, for
their new pickle plant.
Messrs. Gibson, w imams ana
Durrer of the Libby company of
Portland, were here Wednesday to
look over the proposition. Building
operations will commence about
next week, and will be rushed
through to take care of the new cu
cumber crop.
More than 200 acres of cucumbers
have been planted and contracted,
and growers report the fields to be
in very good condition.
