BUHER PRICES
ADVANCE 1 TO 2
CENTS A POUND
Portland 'IP) Advarwe in the but
ter market as almost general
throughout the United States dur
ing trie last 24 hours.
On the Portland produce exchange
there vat a further rtie of 1 to 2
eenU pound for cube while but
terfat showed a general advance
of one cent pound for the day.
The advance In the price of but
ter here waa one cent except for
the extreme low grade, which ad
taneed two centa. The latter -m
somewhat of a surprise in view of
the fact that there hat been a
scramble for top acore recently.
However, aome of the retail hop
are trying to tell butter aa cheap
ly a poMlble and acore meant little
or nothing to them.
Thla hat brought forth agitation
for a law which will compel the
labeling of butter with the acore.
At this time the public has no pro
tection and can be sold cold stor
age butter at fresh make.
The advance In butterfat Is gen
erally maintained although there
are report of a milk war about to
start.
There a practically no change
hi the trading price for eggs local
ly for the day. An outside co-op
was reported aa having met the re
cent advance quoted by Manager
Dixon of the Pacific co-ops and a
general firming up on the tone Is
Indicated.
Demand for live chicken Is tak
ing care of whatever stuff is now
offering from the country. Prices
are unchanged but there Is a fair
showing of strength for light v.elght
broilers and colored stock.
Htremrth In the market for coun
try killed calve has forced extreme
top quality llghta to 18 cents. A
new high for recent movement
hogs are steady at 15 cents while
sheep and lambs are ea?y, espec
ially lambs.
Cut of around 25 cents crate is
announced generally In the prl'.e
of cantaloupes here with Dlliard
stock 12-215 and Wapato il 25-150
crate. Dlllard stock quality Is meet
ing all expectations.
Advance of 25 cents per hundred
pounds Is announced here for
onions. According to Manager Mc
laughlin of the Pacific Prult. It Is
Impossible to secure needs at Walla
Walla while Yakima will not start
for a week or ten days. In the
meantime some local stock la due
According to the West Coast
Fruit Co, the Oregon filbert nut
crop Is showing excellent prospects
Already advance orders P. 8. S. are
sufficient to take the entire ton
nage.
Demand for potatoes Is still In
creasing but there continues a lark
of general offering at Pacific north
went sources of carload lots. Local
stock Is still taking care of mo.it
nerds of the home trade.
Watermelons are lower again.
Price of sugar is down another
nickel.
Lemons are off 50 cents case aith
general sales S10.
GROWER'S COST
OF PRODUCTION
IS PROFIT CLUE
Corvallls (IP) While the pear
growers' profits depends on tlie dif
ference between market price and
cost of production, the latter Is
largely within the growers' control,
believe Oregon Experiment station
specialists who have Just compiled
data obtained in a three-year study
of the cost and efficiency factors In
producing pears In the Rogue River
valley.
As yield is the dominant factor
affecting production cast per box of
p?ars, the grower's major problem
Is efficiency In those practices which
are within their control and which
Increase the yield, they point out.
These practices Include the amount,
kind and method used In cultivation,
fertilization, spraying, orchard
heating, pruning, blight control and
Irrigation.
Labor has been found the largest
tingle cost Item, representing 45 per
cent of the total, with Interest on
Investment comprising 25 per cent,
general expenses 10 per cent, ma
terials and depreciation each even
per cent and marhlnery six per cent.
The average Investment In bear
ing pears In the Rogue district la
11000 per acre. The size of the busi
ness was shown to have a pro
nounced Influence on the farm In
come, as the greater volume of sales
from the larger orchards provided
higher farm Income for the oper
ators, although the labor income per
acre was less than from the smaller
orchards. The 20 Pr cent most pro
fitable farms had 57 acres of bear
ing pears, while the average farm
bad but 30 acres.
A detailed report of the findings
resulting from this study has Just
been issued in pamphlet form by
Ralph 8. Reese, farm management
specialist. W. 8. liroan, horticultur
ist, and L. P. Wilcox, Jackson coun

Lake Labiah, stated Thursday. The
Labish onions are being harvested
and stored in warehouses in that
district awaiting a more favorable
market, Hayes says. The Walla
Walla onion must be put on the
market immediately after reaching
maturity because they are not of
a good quality. The eastern mar
ket has not revived to any great
extent, onions being quoted there
at $1.75, while freight of $1.10 a
hundred must be deducted.
The mint crop on the Haves'
holdings is a good one this year,
although some fields In that section
are below the average. Just what
the oil will bring this year is an
uncertain matter, Hayes believes.
He has heard rumors that lack of
moisture in the large mint produc
ing eastern states has cut down the
yield to a large extent. Hayes has
nothing official on this however,
since the government does not is
sue bulletins on mint.

MRS. KENNEDY TALKS
TOO MUCH IS CLAIM
(Continued from page 1)
and added that she once had to
lock Mrs. Kennedy in a closet be
cause "she talked so much."
While the battle raged between
Miss Waldron and Mrs. Kennedy
the evangelist herself was at her
Malibu beach cottage recovering
from a nervous breakdown and
preparing for a possible appear
ance on the platform of her
"Four-Square" gospel church Sun
day. Her physicians have warned
her that she must not become ex
cited if she Is to recover quickly
from her nervous collapse.
So far she has Issued no reply
to Mrs. Kennedy's latest accusa-
tion that "she once threatened to
have me killed."
Mrs. Kennedy charged that Miss
Waldron "has sister in her con
trol." "Mrs. Kennedy and I haven't
spoken since the big argument,"
Miss Waldron answered. 'She Just
Is angry because I locked her In
the closet to keep her quiet 8he
was saying all sorts of things
about me.
"Her nose Isn't broken, either.
She Just had an operation on It.
She says sister broke her nose Just
to gain sympathy. Sister didn't
strike her at all."
Miss Waldron's admission of a
part In the scene that ended with
Mrs. Kennedy's withdrawal from
the church completed the story of
that episode as all sides had been
told.
All principals agreed that Miss
Waldron and her position of pow
er In Angelus temple caused the
battle but there tne agreement
ended.
Mrs. Kennedy claimed her life
was threatened and she suffered
a broken nose when she was
knocked down by her daughter.
Mrs. McPherson'sald her mother
fell to the floor In a tontrum and
that if her nose was Injured It
was when she fell.
"Nothing but Mrs. Kennedy's dlg
nty was hurt," declared Miss Wald
ron. Mrs. Kennedy reiterated the
charge that the present turmoil over
Mrs. McPherson's illness was a plot
to aid In wresting control of An
gelus temple from the evangelist.
"Sister doesn't have any Idea
about how to do business and she
already has almost lost the temple,"
Mrs. Kennedy said. "All she has
now Is a note for t250.000.
"Certain people are trying to
make her look crazy so that they
can declare sne is not restionslble
and grab the temple from her."
"What she ought to do Is to ao
back to Angelus temple right away
and show her people that she Is
all right. She ought to be proud
to let them see how much more
beautiful she is with her new face
lift."
Miss Waldron declared that Mrs.
Mcpherson was recovering from a
nervous breakdown and had under
gone no facial operation. Mrs. Mc
pherson, herself, would make no
comment on the matter.
Dr. E. H. Williams, physician and
psychariast, was authority for the
announcement Mrs. Mcpherson
might be back in her pulpit Sun
day.
In the face of medical authority
to the contrary. Miss Emma Schaef-
fer, trusted secretary of the evan
gelist, again told Angelus temple
members that "sister still is blind."
Miss Schaeffer, who was with
Mrs. Mcpherson when the latter
assertedly was kidnapped from a
beach four years ago, then success
fully introduced a resolution which
called for three days of fasting and
prayer lor Mrs. McPherson's re
covery.

UNTRAMPEO SILAGE
SUCCESS, IS CLAIM
Dallas Leonard Peterson of the
Oak Point district, north of In
dependence, la one of the several
Polk county farmers who last year
filled their silo without keeping
men In it to tramp the ensilage
For years It has been considered
a necessary expense in the filling
of the silo to keep from one to
three men In there for the purpose
of packing and distributing the
silage as It was blown In. Of re
cent years some have been experi
menting with only tramping the
very top part with good results.
This Is what Mr. Peterson did last
year and he staled, "I couldn't see
but what my silage was Just as
good as It had ever been when
we had used men in it to do the
tramping."
STOCK MARKET
RALLIES AFTER
EARLY PLUNGE
New ork Of) The stock market
made a substantial rally Thursday
after having been depressed 1 to
i points In the general list and as
much as 10 points In special issues.
Hales for the session totaled 1.-
712,810 shares, ajainst 1,817,530
shares Wednesday.
Preliminary calculation made be
fore the late rally showed the Dow,
Jones and Co.. Industrial average
oft 2.04 ponlts at 230.94 and the I
railroad average off 1.20 at 127.71. j
ueanngs ieu on on the decline
and this encouraged buyers to take
stock In the late trading. Steel re
ceived support Just under 166 and
other industrial leaders wcr3 sim
ilarly treated. Several of the
amusements made good gains, oils
steadied and special issues moved
up.
Early selling resulted from the
efforts of bears to bring a reaction
on the theory the recent rise had
weakened the market's technical
position. They were not success
ful in bringing out much genuine
short selling, however, and in the
last ten minutes were glad to
cover their commitments.
Three Issues, Radio-Keith-Ornhe-
um. Radio Corporation and Van
adium, made up 23 per cent of all
the business done on the exchange.
Radio-Kelth-Orphcum was the out
standing feature, rising to a new
nign on the movement at 34. up
and then dropping to 32
after which It again rallied. Radio
moved over an arc of nearlv 2
points and Vanadium S points.
During the early trading U. S.
Steel rose easily to 168'i, where It
was up 1. It then reacted to
165 'i, off 1H net, and in the late
trading rallied to lead the whole
list above the lows of the day.
Other leaders made swings about
the size of that in Steel. Westing
house moved between 142 and 146;
American Can 1254 and 128'4;
General Electric. 68H and 70TJ; and
American Telephone. 209 and 213.
t-oppers were unsettled with
Kennecott making a new low and
others of the group easier. Oils sold
off on a cut in crude by one of the
producers, utilities held fairly well
about 1 to 2 points under the pre
vious close.
Steel closed at 107';. off i: hav
ing made un IV. points of its ear

made up 2 i of its Iocs to close at
144", off net: Vanadium almost
2 points to close at 88. off 2'i;

VanTrump believes valley pears
are unjustly discriminated against
as compared with fruit shipped in
from Yakima and the Rogue river
valley. Canners claim local pears
will not "stand up' In the cans as
the others, stating they get "fuz

put into the cans. The inspector
states the bench lands of the Wil

equal to anything shipped in. He
has disposed of his crop to the
Woodburn cannery this year. The

'Continued from pace 1)
way. The movement, he said, likely
had its inspiration in the recent fil
ings of private power companies on
the largest of the power sites re
maining In the state feasible for
private development, referring to
the applications of the California
Oregon Power company on the
North Umpqua and Klamath rivers,
and those of the Northwest Power
company on the waters of the San
tiam river and Marion lake, which
latter rights are also sought by the
city of Salem for municipal power
and water supply purposes.
These three applications, If ap
proved, would place In private
hands practically all of th feasible
power sites in the state, Luper said.
They have already bee approved by
the federal department and are
pending before the state reclama
tion commission.
As the request for a special legis
lation is understood here it con
templates the enactment of legis
lation permanently withdrawing all
unappropriated water sites in the
state from filings except for public
development and to grant priority
rights to municipalities and other
governmental units In the appro
priation of water for public purpos
es. The question Is raised in state

DENY SHORTAGE OF
WATER IN OREGON
Continued from page 1)
said some shortage of feed crops In
Harney and Crook counties was
prevalent but that taking eastern
Oregon as a whore crops are nearly
normal in spite of a series of years
subnormal rainfall.
H. A. Llndgren, extension live
stock specialist, reported that the
Harney district was seriously short
of wild hay because of three dry
years but the Blue mountain region
had a surplus.
The telegram sent by the Bend
chamber of commerce to President
Hoover, as quoted by L. K. Cramb.
secretary of the chamber, in a let
ter to Governor Norblad, read as
follows:
In line with your program of
droueth relief in middle west w
desire to bring to your attention .
more serious conditions In central
Oregon due to shortage of water for
irrigation and venture to suggest
immediate investigation and action
by national government.
Due to dry cycle water in Des
chutes river and other rivers and
in lakes insufficient to supply ail
lands within irrigation districts
and unless relief is provided sev
eral hundred families will lose re
sults of years of effort and their
farms will be abandoned.
"Relief possible through action
by national government at com
paratively small expenditure in
providing additional storage and
the eelimination of use of water
for power p urposes. Entire cost
to government could be repaid by
water users. Unless relief can be
assured within short time lots will
be irreparable."
Cramz's letter to the governor
concludes:
"We believe an emergency exists
here that should command the
sympathy and attention of the
national government. It seems be
yond local control. We venture to
suggest your assistance in urging
the national government to give
relief."
Cramb's letter V.T& dated last
Monday, and stated that the tel
egram to the president was sent
Saturday.
He mentioned this condition as
obtaining in other streams and
lakes in the district and reiterated
Cramb's suggestion of how the na
tion algovernment could give re
lief. neer alone, except where matters
of public welfare are shown to be
involved, when the matter goes to
the reclamation commission for
final consideration. Of the three
major filinps Luper said, explain
ing that the application on the
Umpqua involves the state game
com m ission wh ich operates a
hatchery on that river, and the
Umpqua special highway improve
ment district.
Luper also disclosed that the
secretary of the "Klamath Irriga
tion distrirt has notified him that
the district desires to file a pro
test on the Klamath river applica
tion, and that he has given them
until September 2 to file the pro
test. WT LET fPlLESl
