PAGF TEN BUTTER PRICES YET UNCHANGED DECLINE IS DUE Portland (LP) There m again a lack of change In the price of butter on the produce exchange not with landing that everyone In the trade realizes the weakness and general depression In the local situation. Stocks of butter and accumulat ing slowly at practically all local points. This Is working a hardship on the country creamery which U not a spectacular In cold storage stuff. Speculative Interests with storage stocks to move are much more Interested in getting rid of the latter than In aiding the fresh butter situation. These appear In control of price fixing machinery on the produce exchange. Generally steady trade Is Indi cated on th esurface of the egg market. Whole cold storage stock Is being pushed, demand for fresh goods la Inclined to show season able gain. New low prices established by buyers of live chickens Monday, were continued during the day. Re ceipts are decreasing Inasmuch as the country believes that offers are too low. With prices practically unchanged and with moat of the shops closed for the holiday; market for coun try killed meats was generally quiet for the day. Lambs continue in best call. There Is a somewhat better sup ply of sllverside salmon arriving here. Sales are being made around 14 cents. There Is scarcely enough Chinook to quote. Extreme scarcity of halibut con tinues generally along the north Pacific coast. Trade Is not receiv ing sufficient halibut at the mo ment to establish prices which are expected to rule around 25 cents pound within the next day or so. While most of the houses were open Tuesday, practically all of them closed around 10 a. m. There was scarcely sufficient trading to open at all. Price changes were practically absent for the day. Market for potatoes Is extremely weak at t.e moment. The huge total crop estimated by the govern ment gave a further depressing In fluence to the trade. Primary sales are reported as very small. There Is an entire lack of demand for carlots of onions at primary points. This feeling is shared in all markets of the Pacific northwest. Consumption is limited with the biggest crop in sight. PARADE RECALLS DAYS OF WAR (Continued from page 1) ft rifle and slung a pack in the war days of 1917-18. A firing squad with the sounding of taps featured the final ceremon ies at the courthouse with Major General George A. White the prin cipal speaker. Armistice day opened Monday night with a frolic at the armory in the attraction "Behind the Front." This was kept open all day Tuesday and Tuesday night. The football games between Salem and Eugene high schools and Wil lamette university and Llnfield were the features of the afternoon with all theaters opening throughout the day, stressing pictures that are rem lnsccnt In some respect of the day. The formal closing of the cele bration will be the big dance at the Crystal Gardens In the evening, with both old and modern dances featured. "Behind the Front" Is ex pected to attract hundreds to the armory as there is also a free dance offered In Its connection.

BUSINESS GAIN CAME IN WAKE OF ADVERTISING Los Angeles (IP A report on cur rent trade conditions by Marc N. Ooodnow, Journalism field repre sentative of the University of Cali fornia, lust made public, reveals that advice of business statisticians to business houses to Increase their advertising appropriations already had been reflected In retail lines in California. "Perhaps the most Important things that face the Independent retailer today, Goodnow's report said, "are competition from chain stores and the necessity of getting 0 message consistently before a lar ger body of people. Not only are the chains growing in number of out lets, but a number of them are In creasing their advertising appropri ations. "One of the largest mall order chains Stars-Roebuck & Co.) will spend this year $4,250,000 for adver tising in 544 newspapers, an Increase of 25 per cent over 1929. This ap propriation is about 1 per cent ol gross sales. Other houses have main tained their customary appropria tion of 1 per cent of gross sales for advertising purposes and are con ducting aggressive newspaper ad vertising campaigns. Even In many Instances where chain volumes have not equaleld those of last year, the advertising appropriations have not been ma terially changed," Goodnow's report said. "In general, the Independent merchant whose volume has de creased has neglected to maintain sufficient advertising space. Un doubtedly, this policy of the Inde pendent merchant whose volume has decreased has neglected to maintain sufficient advertising space. Undobtedly, this policy of the independent has been responsible for a part of the Increase In chain volumes. The fact that the national chain stores recognize the value of local newspaper advertising should mean much to the Independent merchant. With the same medium of advertis ing at his command, he has a dif ferent message to publicize one that Is local and personal In nature. With merchandise that meets the quality test, together with all the service features which he may offer, the independent merchant is by no means limited In his advertising or his merchandising by any form of competition LARGEST POULTRY FARM IS LAUNCHED Portland, (LP) Representing an ultimate investment of about $250, 000, O. W. Weatherly, Portland capitalist, has started construction of what eventually will be the larg est poultry farm in Oregon at Springdale, on the Columbia high' way. He plans to run about 100.000 chickens, both egg-laying and meat .stock. He will raise about 15,000 or 20.000 pheasants to satisfy a nation al market and thousands of trout In pools that will be fed bv a small stream that runs through a 100 acre wooded tract. A crew of 20 men Is working on construction of large poultry houses of the most modern type. The first unit will be 300 feet long and will be ready within a month. REPORT HOP SALES AT THIRTEEN CENTS Portland VP Market for Ore gon hops continues to show im proved trade actlvitv and nrlce ad vancement with sales of several lots In the Aurora and Indepen dence districts reported on a 13 cent basis, a definite half cent ad vance over the week-end. Options have been taken at the same price. New export orders are credited with stimulating the Improved demand. The 13 cent sale reported at In dependence was a lot of 208 bales from Sloper brothers to Ray and the sale at Aurora was of 105 bales of the James Kyle lot bought by Seavey. It Is stated by men In on the know that there would be plenty oi 13 cent business and even some 13' i cents If the growers would sell at those prices but they are report ed to be holding. In fact. It was stated, that out of a possible 18,000 bales In the state 8500 bales are In the hands of nine growers none of whom are yet In the mood to sell at present prices. Considerable biwlness il said to have been transacted recently In California In the Sacramento dis trict at 12's cents and one offer of 15 cents was reported Monday In sonomas. SUverton Mrs. Henry Bock and son, Ous, of Garibaldi, spent the week end here on a business and pleasure trip. They made their stopping place at the George Hubbs home. Mrs. Bock stated that among Sil verton residents now at Garibaldi are Mr. and Mrs. WUlard Robblna, Mr. and Mrs. H. 8. Sharpe, Mr. and Mrs. Ted Lincoln, Mr. and Mrs. 8 McCoy and Mrs. Myrtle Carter.

BERRIES MAY BE SAVED BY SPRAY METHOD Hundreds of blackberry growers In the Willamette valley who lost from 60 to 90 per cent of their crops this year through the action of a new red berry disease may save thelr crops next year If a spray program Is carried out In the early spring, though much work remains to be done on this disease under Oregon conditions. This Information is contained in a new circular of information to be issued by the state college experi ment station within a few days based on Its studies and ohserva lions ever since tlie college was ap pealed to last summer by growers suddenly faced with enormous losses. The red berry disease has been prevalent In California, for some ten years and It is now known that the trouble was present In southern Oregon and to limited extent In the Willamette valley before this year, though not fully Identified as the redberry trouble. This year the normal develop ment of the crop of evergreen blackberries, grown for canning, particularly in Marion, Clackamas and Polk counties, was so suddenly and seriously checked soon after the beginning of harvest that inves tigations by the college were called for immediately and revealed the nature of the trouble. Caused by a tiny mite (eriophyes gracilis nalepa), visible only through a microscope, tlie disease stops the ripening at the red stage. Berry fields many acres in extent had their vines weighted to the ground with tons of hard red ber ries, utterly worthless because they would not ripen. Until more experimental work Is completed by tlie Oregon investiga tors, the experiment station la rec ommending the California control practices with such local adapta tions as may be necessary. These consist first of using a dormant or delayed dormant spray of lime sulphur Just as the fruit-stem buds begin to swell or crack a little In the spring. Lime sulphur is used at a strength of from 6 to 8 gallons of concentrated solution to 100 gal lons of water. An application of this strength Is believed effective even before the buds start to open, the main consideration in either case being to cover every bud, as several hundred mites frequently overwinter in a single bud. , In case examination later in the : spring, but before berries set, re veals mites still present, an appli cation of wettable sulphur 6 pounds to 100 gallons Is recommended. If this spray program Is carried through It is expected that further serious losses will be avoided. When the' experiment station was appealed to for aid this summer, an entomologist was taken from other work and placed In the Infested district to try emergency methods of control. Applications of several summer sprays gave good indica tions of "curing" the disease even after It had attacked the berries, as some test rows ripened up normally, to all appearances. Fruit from these tests has been canned and is being observed this winter to determine if the spray ap plied to the fruit will have any det rimental effect on its flavor or keeping quality. While it Is certain that spraying before tlie fmit sets is the more practical method of control, knowledge of later possi bilities may prove valuable in emergencies. All varieties of blackberries are attacked by the mite andeports of It occurrence on loganberries and raspberries have been received. In California, where the disease was investigated this summer by repre sentatives of the experimental sta tion and of the Woodburn Fruit Growers' union, it was found that no commercial crop of blackberries can be produced without the pro tective spray. Growers in Oregon have pointed out that, in one respect, the disease may be a blessing In future, as It will probably mean the elimination of the wild evergreen blackberries from competition with the cultivat ed acreage. This year, however, the cultivated patches seemed to be hit harder than the more remote wild berries. Meanwhile, the Oregon experi ment station has Initiated a com prehensive spray control teat pro gram and plans are being made to conduct these tests until such time as a positive and safe program for Oregon conditions is established, In case funds for this project are pro vided. If or when any new mater ial is developed it will be passed on to the growers through the press and over the college radio, say the experiment station officials. RURAL CLUS WILL MEET WEDNESDAY Woodburn The Woodburn Rural club will hold It first fall meeting Wednesday afternoon at the home of Mrs. F. E. Morrison on the Pa cific highway. Mrs. Morrison will be assisted by her daughter. Miss Wilma Morrison, and Mrs. Nick Scire.

OREGON PROJENY OF FAMOUS TREE TRANSPLANTED TREE TRANSPLANTED Cambridge, Mass., tip A "grand son" of the famous Washington Elm, under which General George Washington assumed command of the Continental army, soon will be thriving In historic soil here. The Washington elm Itself, long a local landmark, was cut down several years ago after Its great age had made it a hazard to motorists and pedestrians. In 1896. however, one Arthur J. Collins, while a Harvard student, took a clip of the historic elm and planted it on the campus of the University of Washington. a grandson" sprig, taken from that slip, has now attained a height of 16 feet, and the Cambridge para board has accepted the offer of the far western university to trans plant the young elm near the spot where the original elm once wood. FEED DEALERS WILL MEET HERE The feed dealers of the Salem district of the Oregon Feed Deal ers association will meet Thursday, November 20th, 6:30 p. m., at the Marion Hotel, for a discussion of problems of the Industry. While the primary consideration at uus meeting will be given to the tech nical matters concerned with the operation of the industry Itself. there are also to oe consiaerea matters affecting the farming com munity in whlcr the feed men may exert an influence. One of the most Important of these is the question of the existing tariff on oil cake and oil cake meal. Prior to the Imposition of this tariff i $6.00 per ton), tlie associa tion took an active stand against such a tariff, pointing out that it protected no American industry and did affect farmers In the entire Pacific coast territory. The asso ciation Is now actively planning a campaign to secure a reduction of 50 per cent In this tariff, under the flexible clause. A great deal of work is involved in this program In or der to present the data satisfactor ily to the Tariff Commission. Plans to that end will be considered amongst other things at this meet ing. RUSSIA ALLEGES WORLD CONSPIRACY (Continued from page 1) Ramsin, is aleged to have been tlie prime mover In the plot. His asso ciates, three of them educators and the others engineers, are charged with having formed a central com mittee of the so-called Industrial party in the Interests of the Intrigue. The alleged Russian leaders, who will be tried on charges of high treason, for which the punishment is death, are alleged to have im plicated more than 200 others in confessions on their parts in the plot. The Indictment goes on to say the accused persons maintained contacts with the French headquar ters "through persons in the French service, K' and 'R especially ap pointed for this purpose," and re ceived and executed its orders. Later, it alleged, they apied on, and obtained, In accordance with head quarters' orders, "necessary infor mation of secret character relating to the military forces and defense of the U. 8. 8. R." "Upon instruction of the same headquarters," the indictment mv tinues, "the accused organized a special military group aiming at demoralization of the Red army and preparation for separate acts of treason on the pert of the vari ous detachments during the Inter vention, j "Upon instructions from the samr headquarters the accused organized a special group to assist the foreign military interventionists by under mining and disrupting the social structure, electric stations, railways and military works. The charge of plotting with the former president and premier and the foreign minister of France is one of a long list of accusatolns contained in the indictment, which names Mm. Ramsln, Kalimmikov, Laritchew, Tcharnosvky, Fcdotov, Kuprinov, Ochkin and Sltnin. The eight men. members of the so-called "Industrial party," counter-revolutionary organization, are accused of participation In anti Soviet activities. Industrial and po litical, and of preparing favorable conditions for foreign armed inter vention. APPLE BUTTER NEW CANNERY PACK HERE Reld. Murdoch & Co.'s local plant Is working on another experimental pack which from the production end has proven very successful after some slight changes made in the handling of tlie pack to determine just the manner of proceeding. The new pack is that or apple butter being made along with the regular apple pack. The company has a won derful quality of apples which it is putting in the apple pack and the apple butter.
