RETURNS FROM THE EAST
H. B
, Plummer Says Breweries
All Well Stocked With
Hops.
Are
H. B. Plummer arrived home last
Thursday from a five months' trip
through the Middle and Northern
States, ne made the tour as a repre
sentative of T. A. Riggs, the well-
known hop grower and dealer, and
visited Milwaukie, Chicago, St. Louis,
Cincinnati, and many other large
cities, calling on the brewing trade at
each place, with the Durnose of in
ducing them to buy their hops direct
from his firm. Mr. Hummer was
absent from Dallas from early in
August, and visited over 500 breweries.
He reports a successful trip.
He says he fouml every brewery
well stocked with hops, some of them
still having part of the 1903 crop on
hand. Nearly all are well supplied
with 1904's, and a number of brewers
have enough of these old hops on
hand to last them until spring. He
says the reports given out here early
in the present year concerning the
shortage among the eastern breweries
was incorrect, and that as a matter of
fact these breweries were never short
of hops at any time. He found large
stocks of Gorman hops in all the lead
ing breweries, the foreign hops being
imported in large quantities on ac
count of their peculiar flavor and
superior strength. Mr. Plummer
finds the American brewers well sup
plied with Pacific Ctfasts, and is of the
opinion that the greater portion of
the remainder of the 1905 crop will be
sold in the London market. He
thinks that, at the present low price,
London can afford to buy these hops
and hold them over until next year.
Notwithstanding the prevailing low
prices for hops, Mr. Plummer has no
intention of quitting the growing
business, and is anxious to see the
Oregon farmers continue their present
acreage. He argues that while Eng
land and Germany are controlling
the market at the present time, a
shortage in these countries next year
would again place the industry in
America on a profitable basis. Land
is worth more and hops cost more in
Europe than in the United States, and
there is no reason why the Pacific
Coast growers should permit them
selves to be forced out of business by
the foreigners.
Mr. Plummer says the Oregon
growers should exercise greater care
in placing clean hops on the market
than they have in the past. The chief
objection among brewers to American
hops is that they are full of leaves
and stems. One firm informed him
that they had found it necessary to
pick over an entire lot of Coast hops,
at a cost of $3 a bale, before using
them. He says the brewers all ex
press a willingness to pay good prices
for clean hops, and appear anxious to
see the American growers prosper in
the business.
GAME WAS ONE-SIDED
Dallas College Basketball Team De
feats State Normal School by
Score of 42 to 8.
The basketball game between the
Oregon State Normal School team
and Dallas College, last Friday eve
ning, resulted in a victory for the
Dallas team by a score of 42 to 8. A
large crowd was present to cheer the
home team to victory, but the game
was so one-sided that the rooters soon
lost interest. Dallas made 21 points
in each half, by far the greater num
ber being made from the floor. The
Normal boys made 3 points in the
first half, and 5 in the last, throwing
two goals from the foul line.and three
from the floor. The game was lively
from start to finish, and good feeling
prevailed. The Monmouth boys are a
gentlemanly lot of players, and ac
cepted their defeat in the right spirit.
Dallas has a fast team this year, and,
with a little more practice, the boys
will be able to give a good account of
themselves in the big games of the
year. The line-up in Friday night's
game was : '
forward Stine
" Force
center Evenden, Smith
guard Butler
" Johnson
Officials Thorpe, referee; Sibley,
umpire; R. Ellis, timekeeper; C. C.

The game between the second teams
of Dallas College and Pacific College,
on Tuesday night, was quite exciting,
and when the whistle blew for time
the score stood 22 to 22. In playing
off the tie, Pacific won out. Dallas
was handicapped by the absence of
its center, Claude Shaw, whose place
was filled by an inexperienced man.
Had Shaw been in the game, the score
would have been otherwise.
Tonight the college first team will
