Cracked corn Not in market. Portland, Aug. 13. Receipts of livestock at the local yards this week were heavier than for some time past but there is little or no change In the market from the conditions of last week. For prime stock the demand was steady to stronir In n Hn while common stuff as usual moved with less readiness. The nrmnM on the whole is for a rather nctive nmrxei tne remainder of the week. Hogs continue comiiarativelv ana pee and the outlook is for a strong mar ket all the fall. The shortage of the supply In the Pacific Coast is shown in tne tact that all the coast cities are now getting sunnlies from the Middle West. On the other hand, cat tle are being moved from the coast to the markets east of the mountains to a considerable extent to make up the shortage in that line there. Quotations ruling in the livestock market today are: Hogs Best; $6.50 $7; medium, $5.75$6; feeders, $5.50 5.75. Cattle Best steers, $3.75 fv 4; me dium, $3.25 (a 3.50; common, $3 iff 3.25; cows, $2.503; medium, $2.25 2.50; calves, $45. Sheep Best wethers, $3.50; mixed $3.00; ewes, $2.502.75; lambs, best trimmed, $4; untrlmmed, $3.50 3.75. UlB Apple Crop. An eastern correspondent In close touch with the apple situation has furnished the California Promotion Committee with a report, according to the California Fruit Grower, re garding the prospects for the sea son's crop throughout the country. He writes: The New England states will have a total crop about equal to last year. In Maine and Connecticut the crop will be lighter, in Massachusetts about the same and in New Hamp shire and Vermont heavier. New York promises another good crop. In the valley of the Hudson river prop er the quantity estimated Is less than last year, but the western part of the state shows a big Increase. The crop In Pennsylvania Is the same as last year. In Ohio, Michigan and Wis consin It is slightly heavier. The Middle West, where the principal shipments are Ben Davis, had very few apples last year and the pros pects this season are no better. Vir ginia, West Virginia and Maryland will do as well or better than last season. California, Montana, Wash ington, Idaho. Mexico. Utah and Ok lahoma will have twice as many as last season. The crop in Canada does not at present appear to be as large as last year, but if the fruit reaches normal 'size they will probably ship as many barrels. Nova Scotia had a large crop last year and this year It will probably be less. Generally the quality of the different kinds promises good with the exception of Ben Davis, on which there Is report ed to be considerable scab. Taking the country as a whole, the prospects are that there will be more apples than there were a year ago. These comparisons of prospects are based on the prospects of a year ago, and while we would not venture an opinion at the present regarding mar ket values this fall. It would appear that apples will have to be purchased on a much lower basis than they were last year to allow speculators to rea lize any profits. The general tenor of the Eastern trade reports Is bearish, in view of the reported large crop, but this Is usually the case at the beginning of the season, and until buying begins for Eastern shipment It cannot be said positively whether prices will equal last year's or fall below them. Prior for Hop Picking. Forty cents a box will probably be the prevailing price for hop-picking In the Willamette valley this year. At least this Is the price that has bcn agreed upon by the largest growers of the Independence district at a con ference held Saturday, and the grow ers of other districts will doubtless follow suit. . . ,. There has been considerable discus sion among prospective pickers and growers as to what will be he pre vailing price for picking this ), and many of the growers ho had received letters of inquiry from heir regular pickers have beer , unabM to hi.rn IMP flfaiinj ''" I Tcv T o o j I rrlvn Humors of prices from 3R to M m. have been afloat, and the gro .rs themselves.

Krebs Bros, to recover the price of hops on a 14-cent contract fur a pe riod of five years, and 100.000 pounds of hops each year. The first suit was brought upon the contract for the 1906 crop and Judgment for J1000 and costs was awarded. This was upheld by the Supreme Court. While ihis case was pending decision on appeal a second suit was brought on the 1907 crop for Judgment for $t000, the difference between the contract price and the amount the hops were sold for on a down market, and costs. This Judgment is pending decision by the Appellate Court. Firmer Tone in Cnwnra Itark. Because of the light peel of Cas cara bark this summer the murker showB a somewhat firmer tone. Four cents has been paid for new bark and a -cents orrered for a carload of old bark, but holders In the country gen erally want higher prices. The New York Journal of Commerce of Aug ust 6 said: Cascara sagrada was In a much firmer position yesterday. Nona was offered from the coasts and It was a matter of surmise whether tho sup ply tnere had been brought under a single control or whether holders had agreed to withdraw for the time being. At any rate the effect of the situation was manifested in this mar ket in a fractional advance, no bark being available below 7 $i 8c, asv to quality ana seller. Butter Advanrmt. The city creameries yesterday ad vanced their butter prices 2 cents, making the price of the top grade 30 cents. The advance Is the result of tho heavy shrinkage In production which always occurs In the midsum mer season. While the supply has fallen off, the demand has kept up to its normal proportions and the cream eries are finding much difficulty in filling their orders. The Puget Sound markets are also at 30 cents, and the supply there is likewise under the demand. Prices In the East have an upward tendency. KggN Are Variously Quoted. There are at least half a dozen different quotations on eggs In the market district at this time. While the city creameries are selling select candled stock at 25 and 26 cents, some of the commission firms hold thnir best carefullw candled goods at 24 to 25 cents, and atthe same time other dealers say that 23 or 2 4 cents better represents the actual market for the best Oregon eggs. There are now considerable quantities of East ern eggs In the local market, selling at 22 and 23 cents, and these are factor to be reckoned with. Little Doing ta roaltry. Receipts of poultry itoday w: light, and aa usual early In the week little business was dose. For the present last week's prices prevail. What quotations will ke the latter part of the week depends upon the size of the arrivals and the strength of the demand. No line was espe cially In demand today; Wheal Is Firm. An effort to get wheat at 90 cents on the board of trade market yester day failed. Ninety-four cents asked at the opening brought no response and at the close offers to sell at 92 were mado but not considered. Noth ing moved. There was absolutely nothing do ing in the barley line. Oftts jumped 6 a4 rents from the opening but this high bid had no effect in bringing out any grain. pnicri.AXD .M.HKi:r oroi vnoxs ISiw.nl of Trade (Jii.i.i Quotations. Wheat Track prices: Club.
