Mem' berg of the exchange, while pre viously refusing to advance so-called official prices, have been paying the advance. Genera trading In the egg market was steady locally for the week's opening. Receipts are holding prac tically steady, with a slight Increase of pullet stock in spots. No change in the price list. Indicating; the true strength of the butter market and the current shortage of offerings is the fact that those in control of the pro duce exchange have recently forced an advance In the buying price of butterfat. That late cuts in the card quo tations of some 01 the f.o.b. buy ers here have been too severe and will force a shortage in offerings, is suggested In late advices from country points. The fact that practically all the f.o.b. buyers quoted the same sharp loss, and at the same time, leads the country to believe the decline Is manipu lated. For the week's opening there was practically no change In the price of country killed meats in general. Top veal and lambs are especially firm. Hogs appear about steady. Price of lemons advanced to $11 case for top brands here. This is the highest price to date this sea son. California continues to talk extreme shortage.

CANNERY WORKS ON MARASCHINOS (Continued from page 1) to be mainly due to the number of students eont Inning their edueation instead or dropping out niter the sophomore year, and the number of students entering the system from other schools or returning to school to further their studies. He said the hlnh school assembly hall loosea more crowded Monday morning than at any time during the previous school year, and pre dicted a peak enrollment of more than 1300 In the hlph school when all students now registered attend ed classes. Two hundred and sixty-two youngsters entered the first grades or cuy scnoois for trie first time this fall. The number compares favorably with entering classes of other years but does not set any records, in fact, the entire enroll ment of the grades totals only 60 more than on the opening day of last year. Only two grade schools. Garfield and Englewood, dropped in enrolment. Leslie Junior high school had an entering class of 131 pupils and Parrlsh Julor high school an enter Ing class of 183. There were 348 entering sophomore students at the high school. The Increase at Les lie junior huh for the opening day waa mour more than at Parrlsh. although the latter school has al most twice as many puptls. no cnanges are probable In boun daries between the schools, accord ing to Superintendent Mug. although there Is a probability that some the sixth nrade students at Englewood, where there Is a class more than 50, may be sent to Washington to euallre the teacher-load.

LOST GERMAN FLIERS RESCUED (Continued from pnge 1) Walnut Harvest To Start This Week With Filberts Underway The walnut harvest was expected to start in a few orchards Monday with deliveries expected the latter part of the week, according to Fred Ewing, manager for the Salem co-operative plant. Some filberts already have been deliv ered. Ewing Is now busy getting the plant In shape for what will prob- ably be the biggest season's run In Its history. The most Important piece of work being done there un der Swing's direction is the Installa tion of a new line for handling of filberts exclusively. Last year the same line handled both filberts and walnuts and deliveries were so Junkers all metal plane was heavily laden with 835 gallons of gasoline and 16a gallons or on.

The purpose of the meeting was to Increase the membership of the association and the tonnage of nuts handled. Several new members were received and many others signified their Intention of joining as soon as their nut orchards come into bearing. Sam Brown, one of the directors of the organization, and one of the most extensive nut growers in this district. Introduced Mose Adams, president of the Salem unit, who ex plained the purpose and accomplish ments of the organization and who was the principal speaker of the al ternoon. Brown also gave a talk. The meeting was called at the suggested of the Woodburn Berry Growers Cooperative association as the best method of getting In touch with the nut growers of this district an dthe feeling was general that membership In such an organization Is of great benefit to the Individual grower. Nuts grown In this district will be bandied through the Salem unit. Brown, who has 25 acres of nuts In bearing. Is the most extensive grower in this territory. Other grow ers are Joseph Nibler with six acres of filberts and two of walnuts; John Hammelman with 2 14 acres; John Bonner, three acres; Lawrence Reil- ing, three acres; Henry Miller, three acres; Ferschweller, six acres; J. w, Gibson, one acre; Strand, 1H acres; Lawrence Grassman, four acres. One of the largest holdings of young trees is that of E. J. Alien, who has 20 acres near Donald. There are many others with young orchards and small tracts and the industry Is fast becoming a profitable one in the Woodburn district. LINDY VOLUNTEERS RELIEF SERVICE (Continued from page 1) headed was inundated late in August and the loss of life was estimated at 100,000 In five counties along the Grand canal. Destruction In that area was so thorough, however, that no means of making a reliable sur vey have been available. Colonel and Mrs. Lindbergh took a camera, hoping to obtain useful pictures of the flooded area. At Lindbergh's suggestion, all so cial functions planned here in honor of Mrs. Lindbergh and himself were cancelled to enable the filers to de vote their full time to flood relief work. , After accepting Lindbergh's offer to help, Soong sent two experts of the flood relief commission from Shanghai to Nanking to confer with the fliers on the most effective way of using their plane. In view of the fact the Lindbergh plane has a long cruising range, they decided it would be most useful In surveying flood stricken northern Kiangsu. When the decision was reached the Lindberghs proceeded immedi ately to Lotus lake here, where they had landed last week after their flight from Fujuoka, Japan, and took off in ten minutes.

EEEI heavy at times that work at the plant became congested so an en tirely new line of handling machin ery was decided for filberts so that each kind of nut can be handled separately throughout the season. Like all other machinery which has been put In the local plant the new line is being Installed with as mod ern facilities as obtainable to keep up the high standard of this unit for the Oregon pack. Self feeding hoppers are also being put in this year to speed up handling of the ack. Ewing states that while there Is considerable blight in the walnut orchards this year it Is more or less spotted with some orchards virtually free from it. He consid ers the blight problem on walnuts as something virtually entirely sea sonal and with proper weather con ditions another year but very little of it may show up and growers generally do not feel that appear ance of the blight Is any indication of a permanent condition that can be expected every year. Both the walnut and filbert crops are good this year and a good qual ity of nut may be expected al- thoug with the very heavy walnut crop some 01 the sizes may run a little small. The association this year will handle the largest eastern carlot shipments in its history with the big new bearing acreage coming on. 1 As a result, to get the nuts in shape and Into the eastern markets in; plenty of time before Thanksgiv ing to allow them to be sold on the holiday markets fast work must be done by the units. Ewing says the situation is a fortunate one this year as the nuts are coming on about 10 days early and this will help considerably in speeding up the shipments required for the holiday season. A dead line has been put on for early No vember for growers to get their nuts into the first pool which is disposed of during the Thanksgiv Ing season and this will probably accelerate the harvesting to some extent. The first harvesting starting In the walnuts is that of the early seedlings and it is expected It will probably be fully 10 days before the big Franquette harvest starts in in earnest. PACKERS FEAR BRITISH ACTION Considerable speculation was rife among fruit men Monday, both canners and dried fruit packers, as to what effect might be felt here from the action in Great Britain of suspending the gold standard. While most or the lruit men admitted that they were rather at sea on such financial questions there was a feeling that some effect might be felt. Some weeks ago when Germany talked the matter of an embargo on dried fruits local fruit men were greatly exercised but this eas ed off with later advices. Press dispatches indicated that all contracts would be carried out in England and exchanges be granted for necessities. England Is quite a heavy buyer of Oregon fruit, especially certain classes of canned fruit. Hop men also were interested in the action taken in England as reports had Indicated the condition of the crop there might be favorable to Oregon hops. None talked to ventured any asser tions as to what effect might be felt here but it was admitted there were possibilities that the situation might be affected sooner or later. After living all the 84 years of her life In Surrey, England, workhouse a woman has Just died there. WHEAT RALLIES REGAINS MOST EARLY LOSSES Chicago (LP) A strong rally at mid-session stopped the rapid de cline of wheat Monday, but failed to recover all losses incurred during the forenoon. The action of the stock market, In which losses were foU lowed by recoveries in the major stocks, was reflected on the board of trade. The recovery of wheat after new seasonal lows had been made, was in the fractions, and the major grain closed with fractional lossea. Corn followed wheat In sympathetic decline with higher losses, but oaU closed up in the fractions. At the close wheat was 3-9 to lower,, corn to 1 lower and oats ',4 to 3-8 cent up. Provisions were unchanged to 3 points higher; bellies showed losses of 15 to 25 polnta. Chicago, HP) Grain prices tumb led fast Monday after a little hes itancy at the start. Stop loss selling led quickly to new low price records both for wheat and corn. Wheat fell more than 3l4 cents a bushel and corn more than 2 cento before showing an material rally. Suspen sion of the gold standard by Great Britain was the sole immediate fac tor. Opening unchanged to H cents lower, wheat afterward drop ped all aronud. Corn started un changed to H off and later under went a general setback. Portland (IP) Slight reaction was forced In the wheat price for the day In the futures market. Old and new September were each off H cent bushel with the December unchanged and the May down "A cent bushel. Sajes totaled 7000 bushels on the merchants' ex change. Cash wheat was stationary. FIIJ3ERTS GATHERED Silverton Filberts are now being gathered from the 20 acre nut farm of Sam Ames and the crop, It Is stated, will be exceptionally light from the hundred bearing trees The walnut crop it was stated, will be fully up to normal. A new dryer nearly half again as large as the one which was destroyed by fire last fall, has Just been completed.
