REPORT Portland, Dec. 17.—The poultry deal er« «.re interested just now in trying to figure out what price Christmas tur keys will command. There is consid erable difference of opinion, as no one has a very clear idea of the supply that will be available for the trade. Some dealers think a sufficient quantity will be put on the market to keep prices down to a reasonable basis. Others are satisfied the supply will be short and that the price that prevailed at Thanks giving will be again quoted. Reports from the country do not indicate there are very many birds on hand, but any shortage from this, source will be offset by chilled stock, of which It is under stood a considerable quantity will be placed on sale. Guesses at the prices that will pi¿71*11 next week range from ¿9 ¿'4 cents. There* WAR 2 good demand for live turkeys yesterday, and the few coops offered were disposed of readily at prices unchanged from those of last week. Ducks and geese also moved well. There was some inquiry for small broilers, but other kinds of chick I ens were slow, weak and lower in price, flop Buying Heavy There was steady buying of hops yes terday in various parts of the «»ate. Klab« r, Wolf & Netter were reported to be operating heavily, but no line on j their purchases was obtainable. McNeff Brothers were also large buy ers during the day, securing over 400 bales at 5 to 6 cents, including the fol lowing Joe Ego, Newberg, 92 bales; J. M. Wilson, Eugene, 80 bales; Dick Coleman, St Paul, 40 bales. Neeley. St. Paul. 24 bales A. D. Acheson. Gervais. 45 bales. Poy, Gervais. 52 bales; G. W. Poole, Forest Grove. 50 bales; C. E. Ba ker, Wilsonville. 35 bales H. L. Hart, in the past three days purchased about 500 bales at 5 to 6 cents. I Kola Nels bought 140 bales from Mil ler Brothers, of Eugene, at 5 cents, and «0 bales of idds from Ihe same grower at 8 cent«. There are only four lots .aggregat ing 500 bales, available at Eugene, while at this time last year there were about 5000 bales on hand there. The Harrisburg district is said to be entire ly cleaned out. UrHkneNN Gather» In Biller A slight increase in supplies has been sufficient to cause a materially easier tone In the local butter situation. While as yet a steady to firm tone is noted In the best brands, thus«* less familiar to buyers are rather hard tc move and in a number of instances prices are being shaded in order to in crease business. The fact that last week was the first week for some time that cream supplies showed an Increase has caused a smaller amount of buying with the expectation that prices will go lower. The dullest is most noticeable in the cheaper grades of storage stock, although thus far the movement of bet ( lass storage butter has been quite ter class good.

From the interest already shown the contest will be one long to be re membered and so It ought. To have Lane county represented at the Se attle fair by nine of its most popular voun gladies is well worth every one having the interest of Lane county at heart to get in and boost for some one of the county. To have the county represented in the manner in which it is to be will make it the best known spot in Ore- gon. Read the conditions of the contest carefully and do a reasonable amount of work, assured that if you win that the ten days’ trip to the fair will be the event of your life. Three young ladies will be sent from the city of Eugene and one each from six other districts into which the county is di vided. Clip Them Out Carefully. Contestants and their friends should be careful In clipping the coupons from the paper. Votes should not come into the office all waddl'd up and look as if they had been torn out. as it is almost impos sible to count them correctly. Con test managers have tempers as well as any one else, and when the votes are taken from the ballot box all mixed up and torn, with strings tied around them, it is next to impossible to give the correct count, and when errors are made the manager is to blame.
