COAST MARKET
FIRM FOR HOPS
AS WEEKENDS
Pacific Coast hop markets were
firmer during the week ended Sept.
16, and prices to growers advanced
around 2 lie per pound, according
to the Weekly Hop Market Review
of the United States Bureau of Agri
cultural Economics. Moderate but
steady domestic demand, together
with light curreit offerings from
growers were the principal strength
ening market influences. Sales by
growers In the three Coast states
during the past week totaled 670
bales of 1936 crop hops which net
ted 42c-45c per lb., and 311 bales
of 1936 crop hops at 30c per pound,
net growers. Trade statistics Indi
cate that California, Oregon and
Washington growers were holding
79,129 bales of hops of all growths
on Sept. 1, 1936, as compared with
80,307 bales in the same position on
Sept. I, 1935. However, of this year's
stocks, only 8.889 bales were of the
1935 crop, compared with 30.841
bales of the 1934 crop on hand
Sept. 1 last year.
Oregon markets were firm and
moderately active during the past
week. Prices to growers advanced
around 2-c.per pound on 1936
hops as compared with a week ago,
while prices on 1935 hops held un
changed. Sales by growers in Ore
gon during the past seven days in
cluded, 300 bales of 1936 clusters
at 42c, and 100 bales of 1936 crop
fuggles at 42c per pound, net to
grows. 311 bales of 1935 crop clus
ters were sold at 30c per pound, net
growers. Unconfirmed reports indi
cated sale of 250 bales of 1934 crop
hops, but the prices paid were not
available. Harvesting continued in
Oregon under favorable weather
conditions, although shortage of
pickers was reported in some yards,
with the opening of schools reducing
number of pickers available. The
comparatively high prices however,
are causing growers to make every
effort to save all of their crops. Most
ofthe small yards have completed
picking, and with favorable weather,
the larger yards are expected to fin
ish picking within ten days. The
quality of the 1936 Oregon crop
continues to show very irregular,
with many samples showing thin
and immature Quantity, and poor
picking apparent in others. Baling is
reported proceeding slowly in Ore
gon yards. Only 6.698 bales of 1935
crop hops were reported held by
Oregon growers on September first.
Washington hop markets were
firm and higher during the period,
although trading was of small vol
ume. Sales by growers in the Yaki
ma Valley included 20 bales of
choice quality 1936 crop clusters at
45c per pound, and 50 bales of
prime quality new crop clusters at
43c per pound, net to growers.
California hop markets develop
ed further strength during the
week, largely reflecting light offer
ings since demand was not especially
urgent. Prices advanced 2 !jc per
pound to a new high point in re
cent years with 200 bales of the 1936
crop selling in Sonoma county at
45c per pound, net grower. This
compared with 9'ic-12c per pound
prevailing in California markets at
this time lat year. At the close of
the week, trade reports indicated
that only around 3.800, bales of 1936
hops remained in strictly growers
hands as compared with holdings
of 20.831 bales of the 1935 crop at
the middle of September a year
ago.
Exports of hops from the United
States during July. 1936. totaled
19.846 lbs., bringing the total, Sept.
1C35, through July. 1936 to 6,527.
611 lbs., compared with 8.195,272
lbs. exported during the correspond
ing months a yenr ago. Exports dur

DROUGHTSHOVES
WHEAT MART DP
Chicago, Sept. 19 iP) Reports of
widespread deficiency of soil mois
ture over domestic wheat territory
had a bullish influence on wheat
prices today late as well as early.
An opposite factor though was
talk that an enlarged winter wheat
acreage will be seeded if possible.
The outcome of negotiations for the
purchase of nearly 20.000,000 bush
els of wheat for Italy from Rou-
mania was awaited with Interest.
Wheat closed firm at the same as

1 cent down, Sept. 1.15-1. 15'., Dec
05s-S; oats H off to up, and
provisions showing 2 cents to 15
cents setback.
Barley Sept. close 83, Dec. 76.
Chicago, Sept. 19 (LP) Relative
firmness in foreign markets set the
pace for wheat futures on the Chi
cago board of trade today. Early
gains were erased by profit-taking
sales but prices turned upward at
the close behind the lead of the
Winnipeg market.
At the close wheat was unchang
ed to up U, Sept. 1141; corn was
off i to up 1 cent, Sept. 1.15, and
oats were off to up , Sept. 42 ;i
cents.
Favorable reports on the Euro
pean grain situation, which Indicat
ed Winnipeg will be the controlling
iactor in world markets for some
months served to check selling pres
sure in the Canadian market and
induced a small volume of buying
Prices at Winnipeg closed with fair
gains.

however, reflected fully the decline
here yesterday, due to the absence
of pressure from Argentina and
Danublan countries.
Corn eased under scattered sell
ing pressure from longs who evened
up their positions for the week-end
Reports of further precipitation in
parts of the grain belt had an ad
verse influence.
Buying of December contracts
against soles of May again contri
buted largely to the day's volume of
trading.

OF PUBLISHER
(Continued from page 1)
The newspaper owner was not
named:
The text follows:
"My attention has been called to
a planned attempt led by a certain
notorious newspaper owner to make
it appear that the president pas
sively accepts the support of alien
organizations hostile to the Ameri
can form of government.
"Such articles are conceived in
malice and born of political spite.
They are deliberately framed to give
a false impression in other words
to 'frame' the American people.
"The president does not want and
does not welcome the vote or sup
port of any individual or group tak
ing orders from alien sources.
This simple fact is, of course,
obvious.
"The American people will not
permit their attention to be divert
ed from real issues to fake Issues
which no patriotic, honorable, de
cent citizen would purposely inject
into American affairs."
Early signed the statement. He
declined to amplify It except to say
the articles about which he had
been informed had not, as yet, ap
peared in print.
The president's secretary said
Mrs. Roosevelt had shown a slight
but continued improvement. He ad
ded the president's departure for
Hyde Park. N. Y depended entirely
on her condition and that it might
be Monday night before he could

slender silhouette was just the thing
to preserve that trim waistline. .
The whole effect was sleek and slen
der, yet there was a suggestion of
width in the psue do-sleeves, which
were very perky at the shoulders-
all the more to slenderize the waist
line. . . The peplum was new as
new can be, with the little trick of
bit of fullness in the back to
match the flowing, full line of the
skirt . . and, of course, the peplum
was much longer in the back than
in front. . . . Then, too, there was a
faint suggestion of a military note
by way of the velvet reveis on the
jacket and the little velvet buttons
which marched very nicely down the
front. . . . This is the calibre of dress
you'll find at the best of parties this
fall and it's extremely good looking
and practical. . . . Lest you haven't
caught on, the foundation of th
gown is black velvet and the peplum-
jacket is silver white lame. . .
NOBBY WEAVES ... for the
smartest sweaters this fall .... And
don't forget that hand-knitted effect
if you want to achieve a "dressy"
note. . . . There isn t any woman
who doesn't want a sweater the
college girl, the business woman, in
fact any person who goes in for
travel and sports. ... So, for this
reason, the sweaters have to be def
initely good looking and wearable.
Two outstanding models have that
very nice hand-knitted look and lit
tle decorative touches, usually typi
cal of the higher-priced sweaters.
One with a U1ple-banded neckline

ed out by a change in the stitch
pattern. . . . The sleeves have a lego-mutton
treatment and it all is
made of pure wool yam In all shad
es desirable. . . . For those who want
pointed yoke there's a sweater
which fastens down the back with
wooden buttons. ... It has a "knit
two, purl two" manner and is good
for those who like more tailored
things under their Jackets. . . . Both
these are well worth seeing. . .

SHORTAGE OF
HORSES NOTED
Dallas Neglect to breed mares
between 1025 and 1933 has left the
United States with an excess of
horses and mules over 10 years and
not enough between 3 and 10 years
of age. As a result, there will be a
national shortage of about 175,000
horses and 325,000 mules when the
1937 work season opens up, accord
ing to information county agricul
tural Agent W. C. Leth has just re
ceived from Wayne Dinsmore. sec
retary of the horse and mule asso
ciation of America.
Dinsmore's figures show that Ore
gon will have to import about 1.400
work horses and approximately 300
work mules, from other states, for
leplacements alone before the 1937
work season starts; that is, colts
raised in Oregon in 1934 will fall
short that number of equalling loss
es by death In 1936. This means that
about $260,000 in cash will have to
be paid out by Oregon Farmers, for
work animals, manv of which they
might easily have raised.
Breeding is increasing, and It is
estimated there will be about one
million horse and mule colts foaled
and raised this year, but death loss
es In 1936 will be around 1.200.000:
there will be much need for
more good sires for some years to
come.

NEED CODIFICATION
AGRICULTURAL LAWS
Need for codification of the laws
governing the administration of ag
ricultural activities in Oregon was
pointed out in a memorandum sub
mitted to the governor by the legis
lative Interim committee on govern
mental and administrative reorgan
ization. The laws at the present time are
conflicting and some under the con
solidation act of 1931 are unconsti
tutional, the report stated. The need
for codification, the committee
pointed out, was to clarify these sit
uations. It was suggested the work
be done by the director of agricul
ture and the attorney general for
submission to the 1937 legislature.
The 13 various departmental func
tions were consolidated under a di
rector of agriculture during Govern
or Meier's administration.
WINE PRODUCTION
IS CUT BY BLIGHT
Paris CUt The dreaded mildew
menace again threatens French
wine crops this year. Unusual wea
ther conditions, ranging from pre
mature warm weather to late cold
snaps with continued rains in some
sections of France, have played hav
oc with many of the crops, with the
result that mildew already has at
tacked the vines In several regions.
It is expected that France's wine
production for 1936 will be from
1.000.000.000 to 3,000.000,000 liters less
than the average year.
The late cold wave caused com
plete losses In some restricted lo
calities, but not over wide areas. In
many regions, notablv the Vouvray,
Chlnon and Sauteme districts,
floods damaged vines situated in
low sections, while those on the
hilltops were untoucned.
The Medoc wines were saved, due
to the care of the vineyard workers,
who frequently stayed up many
nights to guard the delicate vines
from frost.
In Alsace, frost and hail blackened
some of the leaves and stripped
others In spite of the use of antl-
hail shells, which were mistaken by
tourists as the reopening of hostil
ities with the Oermans a few miles
away on the other side of the Rhine
river. It Is estimated that only 10
per cent of the Alsatian vlnea will
not produce this year.
