Prices were mixed quite thoroughly as Is quality. Desirable stuff is find ing a very good sale with "rejects" slow. Piling up of butter In storage continues with the movement Into coolers unusually liberal In view of the extreme lateness of the season. Tomato market deal Is Increasing rapidly locally and through the Pa cific northwest generally. The Dal les. Dillard, Wapato, Yakima and even local points are contributing but prices are showing only very alight recession. Because it Is difficult today to secure well matured Yakima po tatoes that will fill the Oregon grade, operators are looking more than ever to the local product. Prices are steady. Even though killers as a rule are still quoting the extreme low point to the country for light hens, they are as a rule securing local places for their actual needs.

The pro. blem is where to put all the stock that will be on hand for the week's exposition at the fairgrounds here. Unusually large entries are already on hand for the cattle, draft horse, sheep and swine shows and every one of thee promises to surpass previous records. Even the giant new cattle barn, now nearing completion, and which will house 500 nead of cows under one great roof, will not suf fice for the cattle shows. In fact, fair officials are already talking about starting construction of additional units immediately after the fair of September 6 to 12. A number of new exhibitors have made stall and pen reservations and this is particularly gratifying to fair officials. One of the largest of these will bring IS head of Ayrshire clear from Hutch ins on, Kansas. These are from the A. B. Williams and Son ranch. Fred Daniel, Gallatin Gate way, Mont., has entered 13 head of Brown Swiss. The largest entry to date in the show of big farm horses comes from P. D. Gernan of North Portland who will bring 16 Percheron and Belgians. Several Marion county Percheron entries are in also. Fifteen pens of sheep from the Floyd T. Fox farm, Silverton, leads the early entries in this division, with H. D. Harms and Son of Canby route 1, runners-up with 13 pens entered. In the goat shows, entries from Portland are leading so far, with Margaretha Stetger having the largest number of pens entered to date. Swine entries are led by Elmer Stangel, Wilsonville, who will show 14 pens, and four fewer pens will come from A. C. Overland farm at Oswego. Poultry and pigeon entries are also coming strong. In a change in de partment superintendents made this week, Charley Evans of Salem will supervise the pigeon and rabbit en tries. Evans has in the past been a winning exhibitor in the pigeon shows, but under the ruling that no superintendent can exhibit in the department which he directs, he will not exhibit this year. MONTANANS VISITORS Monmouth Albert Hendickson and son Carl from Missoula, Mont., are vacationing at the home of the former's sister, Mrs. C. E. Blair, lo cal telephone operator.

Youngberry Yield Makes High Average Hazel Green Tom Van Cleave and son, Alvin, have finished harv esting their six acres of youngber riea with a total of 15 tons from the field. Bliss Zielinski and Alex ander Sharp and Charles Zielinski, Jr., report excellent yield from their lields of loganberries. Silos have been filled with clover and vetch by Max Woods, Frank Zielinski and Looney brothers. Her man Wacken has finished baling hay and is now starting on the straw piles. The spring grain threshing is unusually good due to the late rains which gave it 1 much needed boost. Peter William. son is combining with a iww outfit for his son Will and himself. Al fred Zielinski is also combining in Hayesville and the local district. Grain Threshing Gets Well Under Way Jefferson Grain threshing is well under way In this community and the surrounding districts. Good yields are generally reported. Ten acres of wheat at the Sam Iungen ranch in the Looney Butte district yielded 249 sacks of the grain. It is reported that the peach crop in some of the nearby orchards is light this year but the quality is good. Hop picking in a number of the yards, around here and in the Tal bot district, will begin next week. Domestic Market Still Short of Loss Seattle, Aug. 21 U,R An improv ed domestic market for west coast lumber has still failed to overcome export losses, the West Coast Lum bermen's association said today.

He charged the broadcast was arranged by the office of Post-master-Oeneral Farley, the chair man of the democratic National committee. Burke met the Ouffey attack with a counter-attack on administration policies. "It was not until I came to see the new deal could quickly be changed Into a rotten deal," he said, "that my enthusiasm waned for some of the things I had been sup porting." Holt made the most violent at tack of all, brief though It was. He said Ouffey "wants the honest men out of the party so the bosses and corruptlonlsts can have control." Senator Plttman (D.-Nev.) aald he never had felt he had the right "to read any one out of the party." Even the republicans took shot at Ouffey, although they were pleased by the split within demo cratic ranks." Senator White (R.-Me.) said it was a "pretty raw proposition" com ing from the chairman of a cam paign committee. Wheeler told the senate it was the first time in 14 years, he had heard a member, democratic or republican, demand the defeat of a party col league. Wheeler aaid "If you want to drive us out of the democratic party, if the bosses in New York, Pennsyl vania, Kansas City and Chicago want to drive us out, you won't have much difficulty." ' Swinging abruptly toward Guffey, Wheeler added, "and let me tell you one thing; if you nominate your governor or yourself for president you won't have to drive us out." Guffey'a action widened the open rift in the party. His broadcast address, without precedent so far as political observ ers recalled, named Senators O'Ma honey of Wyoming, Burke of Ne braska and Wheeler of Montana. He flatly predicted the defeat of O'Mahoney and Burke and said Wheeler would have "plenty to do" in the way of explaining before 1940. Senator Wheeler, (D Mont.), told the senate that Senator Guffey didn't write the caustic radio ad dress he delivered and was "afraid" to deliver the speech on the sen ate floor. Wheeler's remarks on the floor came while a quiet movement got under way unofficially to depose Guffey from the chairmanship of the democratic senatorial campaign committee. O'Mahoney interrupted Wheder to assert that if he had the power he would not "change a word, or a line, or a vote" of his record. In ringing voice, he told Ouffey that Ouffey had not harmed the sena tors he had mentioned, but the democratic party. O'Mahoney, turning to face Guf fey, shouted at him: "The sooner we get that man re moved from the position he occu pies now, the better it will be for the democratic party." Burke, a leader of the bill's op ponents, commented: "When Senator Ouffey announces that he Is going to see to tt that Wheeler, O'Mahoney and Burke are retired, I assume he speaks in the double capacity of chairman of the democratic senatorial committee and White House spokesman. "If that la true, we might Just aa well forget Jefferson Island and harmony dinners and get ready for a real battle." There was no Immediate com ment from others, but many op ponents of the bill openly were angry. Ouftey's speech was In sharp con trast with recent statements by Democratic Chairman James A. Farley that there would be no re prisals for opposition to the court plan. Coupled with a statement from John L. Lewis questioning the abil ity of democratic leaders to carry out their program it aroused re newed speculation on a poMlble new political alignment by 1940. He was aroused by the house rules committee's refusal to allow the wage-hour bill to reach the house floor. The committee's ac tion also drew a denunciation from William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, rival of the CIO. Ouffey. In his speech last night, intimated the battle for the court bill was not over, despite the ad ministration's defeat in the session now closing. "This congress." he said, "has failed to grasp the greatest oppor tunity for the establishment of a true democracy In this nation that has ever been afforded to any con gress."
