EGGS STRONGER
IN TONE WITH
PRICES STEADY
Portland, Ore.. (IP) Strengthen
ing tone In the egg market Is Indi
cated In a pots throughout the coun
try but In general the week end
market was without marked change
In value of demand.
Quality goods are finding sale but
hot weather stuff la not to active.
Quality goods are finding sale
but hot weather stuff la not so
active.
Quite a fair volume of short held
stuff Is rolling out of coolers and Is
adding to the current supply. The
latter appeared sufficient to take
eare of most needs of the trade.
Best cooler stuff is meeting with no
opposition with sales at fresh egg
prices on account of exceptional
quality.
Butter market in general Is with
out notlcable change for the week
end. This applies to both cubes
and prints as well as butterfat.
Withdrawals from coolers are keep
ing the trade well supplied.
Further gain of strength Is Indi
cated In the market for cheese. The
decreased make In the territory
west of the Rockies continues the
chef factor although coast produc
ton has held up well.
It bruins to look as If the price
of live chickens has definitely
struck the extreme low point al
though some possible reaction may
be tried. At this time most trading
Is lc lb., above the extreme low
mark.
While the beef market Is gener.
allv slow for country killed offer
ings, lean stuff suitable for sausage,
Is scarce and Is finding a very lib
eral and unfilled demand. Canners
around 6-Bc lb.
Price of veal continues to show
strength and especially so In regard
to offerings of top ngnt weignis.
These are moving rapidly and read
llv un to 18c lb., with slixht Infer
lor a cent less. Hogs active up to
15 Kc lb. MutUm and iamb con
tinues easy with an overplus.
Klliht increase ot activity Is In
dlcated generally for potatoes in the
northwest sector. Little digging is
shown as vet In the carload pro
ducing sections with growers not
anxious to oiler.
GOLD HILL CITY
COUNCIL RACKS
NORBLADSTAND
Governor Norblad ha received
a codv of resolution adopted ay
tlie ritv council at Gold Hill, Curry
county, commending htm lor his
letter to the state engineer insist
intr on public hearings before the
engineer passes on appucauun ay
private interest for water power
nermits.
"We believe the attitude of the
California -Oregon Power company
to municipal power development
in southern Oregon is of a vicious
character and the water power
falllm? into their hands Is (
vere blow to the development of
tills part of the state, says ine
resolution.
The resolution "protests against
the Issuing of any appropriations
of water for the development of
electrical oower to the private
power companies of Oregon until
the state of Oregon, the munici
palities of the state and the Indus
trie therein are adequately pro
tected by the enactment of a law
designed to preserve the rights of
the citlsens of the state of Oregon
to one of their greatest resources,
and adequate protection Is as
sured against the apparent politi
cal propaganda, control and news
papers and control of our state
legislature."

and Secretary Hoss, lies in the fact
that whether permits shall be Is
sued or denied la entirely in the
discretion of the engineer.
"Members of the state reclama
tion commission," said Hoss, "are,
by the law, several degrees removed
from authority in the matter. The
only way the board can come into
the picture is by the engineer re
ferring the power questions to us
which he has the right to do U he
so chooses."
Luper's statement, in which Hoss
concurred, follows:
"My attention hag been called to
public aggitatlon for a special ses
sion of the legislature to be con
vened for the purpose of withdraw
ing the waters of the state Irom ap
propriation. "In my opinion such action would
out the state to great expense and,
in my opinion. Is unnecessary. There
are many applications for power de
velopment now pending before the
department. The attention of the
entire state has been turned to a
consideration of the value of Its
water resources. This sentiment ffill
probably crystalize and take defin
ite form by the time the regular ses
sion of the legislature convenes in
1931. In the meantime, due to the
magnitude of the applications and
the number, and the state engineer's I
duty to make complete investiga
tions before approval of such appli
cations in order that the public wel
fare may be protected, I wish to as
sure the people o( Oregon that no
permits for large power develop
ment will be Issued until after com
plete Investigation and until after
the next regular session of the legis
lature.-
Governor Norblad announced Sat
urday that he has not yet reached
a final decision on the requests for

GIRLS IN CAMP
TO ENTERTAIN
OVER WEEK-END
Plans for visitors' day Sunday at
Camp Santaly, and the big banquet
Saturday night are keeping the
Campfire girls attending the week's
outing on the Santiam river Inter
ested. The camp will close Monday.
The many activities held the lat
ter part of the week at Camp San
taly are described by a correspond
ent Friday morning as follows:
Friday morning The camp craft
people arrived In camp Just before
morning sing reporting a very en
joyable time on their overnight
hike. Tne lour girls who were to
take their trail maker's rank In
camp craft left before handicraft
class to dig their hole to make
beans in a hole. By the time the
other girls arrived at the camp
site tne beans were cooking deep
down In their hole. Besides the
beans the girls had bread -on-a-stick
and peach sauce for their sup
per. Most everybody slept all night.
If they didn't, It was because they
were trying to sleep on too many
rocks or roots. But that was a small
matter. We got up a half an hour
earlier than usual so we would have
time to heat our rocks for bacon
and eggs on a rock. There were no
mishaps except perhaps an egg or
two sliding off the stone Into the
fire.
Plans are going ahead for a regu
lar whiz-bang of a banquet. There
are to be a toaslm is tress, toasts and
everything.
Thursday morning we had visit
ors In camp Mr. and Mrs. Asa
Fisher. They came to visit their
daughter. Jane Robinson.
Sunday Is to be visitor's day.
There Is to be a morning service
and an afternoon program for the
parents. Anybody may come to in
spect the camp.
Friday night Is a masquerade
party. Already certain people are
going around begging to borrow
bath towels, wash cloths, and other
articles.
BRITISH COTTON
INDUSTRY FACES
GRAVEST CRISIS
Manchester, England tTP) The
Lancashire cotton industry, which
draws most of Its raw material from
the southern United States and ex
ports It as manufactured textiles to
the near and far East, Is lace to
face with the gravest crisis of its
history.
The plight of the once vast in
dustry Is fully revealed in a. gov
eminent report, drawn up after
months of investigation, which tells
the industry, without mincing words
that it must reorganize or get out of
business.
While trade statistics show that
the world each year is using more
cotton goods than before the war,
Lancashire's share of the trade has
declined dangerously.
A year ago the little cotton spin
ning town of Burnly had only 5,
261 unemployed cotton operatives.
Today the figure is 15,000. The un
employed of Blackburn lumped
from 7,443 last year to 27,000 today
while the unemployed at Preston
increased from 8,819 to 13,368.
In 1913 the . Lancashire cotton
trade sold the world seven billion
yards of piece goods. In 1929 it sold
only 3,750,000,000 yards and this
year Is selling even less.
While Lancashire's sales have
been reduced by half foreign com
petitors have been making cotton
goods cheaper and Just as good as
Lancashire and putting them on the
market more attractively. The Ja
panese, particularly, have almost
supplanted the British In the China
market and are rapidly driving the
Lancashire product even out of In
dia. In effect, the British government
has told the Lancashire ' spinners
that Uiey mu abandon their his
toric "wait -iill-they-come-to-us"
marketing system and adopt the
American "make-them -buy" meth
ods. Also that the surviving mills
must be equipped with up-to-date
machines and grouped in amalga
mations.

Oregon Dairymen to
Benefit From Drouth
Is Lytle 's Assertion
Oregon husbandmen will be In a
position to profit from the misfor
tune ot the parched middle west,
according to Dr. W. H. Lytle. state
veterinarian.
Termination of the unprofitable
dairying period of the past year was
seen in reports from dairymen In
every part of the state, he declared.
'The drought which occurred in
the very heart of the heavily pop
ulated dairying districts of the Unit

profit from the misfortune of our
sister states."
Costly dairy feeds, normally pro
duced on a heavy scale in the mid
dle western states, will not now be
used with dairy prices at their pres
ent level. It was declared by Dr. Ly
tle. "Railroad companies are gather
ing data as to the probable avail
able excess feeds here In the north
west," Lytle said, ''with the idea of
encouraging the shipment of dairy
animals from the middle west to the
Pacific states for a temporary stay.
pending growth of new foreign crops
i nthe devasted sections.
The absence of green pastures in
Oregon at this part of the season
has tended to discourage this move
ment, Lytle said, giving practicabil
ity to a movement to &hip surplus
feecS to the middle west.
With a reduced surplus, dairy pro
duction in Oregon should be cur
tailed, thereby raising dairy prices
to higher and more profitable lev
els.
"It takes 20 tons of alfalfa hay
and five good dairy cows nine
months to transform the forage into
a ton of butter," Lytle declared.
"Hence it is a question of our ex
plorable surplus of feeds and whe
ther or not butter will reach the
price where it will pay to ship cows
2,000 miles to work the transforma
tion." Present Oregon milk production
averages somewhat higher than
many other dairying states. The
state now has approximately 220,
000 dairy cows for a 1,000,000 popu
lation as compared to the nation's
dairy holdings of some 22,500,000
cows for 120,000,000 people.
The Oregon coast and the Wil
lamette valley district seem partic
ularly well adapted to dairying.
Mild summers here do not tan del
icate hides of thin skinned animals
and the dairy cow-machine seems to
work best in the Pacific northwest,
it was said.
'The future of Oregon dairying
looks brighter and there is every in
dication that the fall of the year
will show heartening markets for
dairy products," he stated.
WHEAT PRICES
GAIN SHARPLY
IN CHICAGO PIT
Chicago (LP) Showing a much
stronger condition on the board of
trade Saturday, wheat closed sharp
ly higher despite profit taking sales
and some hedging pressure. Com
mission houses and locals were good
buyers. The report that a local crop
expert would Issue a statement next
week showing 150,000,000 bushels of
wheat to be ussd as feed, by far the
largest on record, was an important
factor. Corn also shot upwards more
than Hie but profit-taking and sell
ing on the bulges was met, though
the market held a firm undertone,
and the best prices were not main
tained. September continued to act
hlght. Reports confirmed barren
stalks and unfilled cars over large
areas, creating bullish sentiment.
Oats were active following wheat.
At the close wheat was 1 3-8 to
l'ic higher, corn was ft to 1 3-8
cents higher and oats were k to
cents higher. Provisions were steady.
Receipts were wheat 61 cars, corn
258 and oats 78.
Chicago IIP) Grain prices moved
strongly upward Saturday, influ
enced by suggestions that as much
as 150,000,000 bushels of wheat
would be fed to livestock this sea
son. Heretofore, the extreme high
est amount of such use of wheat
on account of scarcity of corn has
been 125,000,000 bushels and the
majority of traders were inclined to
regard 100,000,000 bushels allow
ance as liberal. Opening off to
ft up, wheat afterward scored all
around gains. Corn started
higher and subsequently continued
to mount.

The Casa de Beneflcencia ot

There Is, first of all, a little door
