Portland, Or., Auk. 20. That
there Is Kround for the belief now
more or less prevalent among the
famcm of this state that good hay
prices throughout the year may rea
sonably be expected, is the conten
tion of one of the leading hay und
feed dealers of the city.
"On an average about 15 cars of
hay are now being brought to the
city dally." he said today. "This is
not a very large amount, considering
the needs of the current require
ments, and the daily receipts would
be a good deal larger but for the
fact that muny of the large hay pro
ducers of the state have become con
vinced that grass feed this year In
going to save the strength of wheat
and either grains.
"1 have never" known a seasot,
when grains and feeds generally were
high and hay quotations low, and I
can see no reason for believing that
this will he the case this year. I be
lieve there will he a good market for
all hay produced in Oregon this year,
with satisfactory prices, If thu far
mers will continue shipping In spar
ingly as they have the past few
weeks. It will be fur better for the
farmers and for all concerned If the
market can he kept In a fairly steady
condition, than to have alternate pe
riods of scarcity and abundance.
"A factor In the Oregon hay mar
ket this year Is the shortage In the
crop In California. There has been
too much hot weather for the matur
ing of a good crop In that state this
season, and as a consequence In
some parts of the state there will he
a demand for Oregon products. In
Southern Oregon some hay Is al
ready going across the line, though
thu marketing of the Oregon crop
has only begun us yet."
Hides Are Firmer.
The revival of Interest in the hide
market Is one of the most encourag
ing signs of the returning of nor
mal conditions in thu Kastcrn states.
The h lil i market Is exceedingly sen
sitive to monetary comfltlons nnd
U so closely related to other lines
of business, the leather and shoe
trade, the packing Industry, etc.,
that any Improvement lit Its condi
tion Ih but the reflection of better
ment in other blanches of industry.
When the money troubles occurred
I last fall the hide market was the
I first to suffer and In it the slump
In prices was greatest, quotations at
tthe minimum being only half what
they were a few months before.
The tide has turned now and prices
have a general upward tendency,
though the course of values is llkeiy
to be Interrupted at times by tem
I pornry market conditions. At the
I liioiuetit there is a gooil demand all
lover the country and prices are firm
ly maintained. In the local market
sailed hides the quoted at 7 (u Sc and
call skins al i-t'iilac, with green
receipts of apples, Oregon tl uipris
ing the bulk of me arrivals. Apple
slocks generally are large, and a
considerable proportion of them be
ing low grade, they are none too
actlce. Prices have a wider range,
common apples selling for 7 5c Jo
$1 a box, and the better sorts to
$1.50. Among the latter are Cali
fornia Gravensteins.
Poultry 1'rlitK Firmly Held.
There were no signs of weakening
in the poultry market today, though
the volume of business done was
comparatively small. Receipts were
moderate and the demand was suf
ficient to take all tsat came, the
best demand being for fancy hens.
There Is now some Inquiry for ducks
and turkeys, but not many of either
are offered.
" lUnt Tomatoes Are Higher.
First class quality tomatoes are
showing an advance In price, owing
to the very small amount of stock
offered. Some from California Is
bringing as high as $1.25, as does
some of the best local stock. Gen
erally the market ranges around $1.
Advices from the country state that
the vines are covered with green to
matoes of very good size but the
slock is ripening very Blowly. All
j express the opinion that this is an
off year for tomatoes.
lirlcf Notes of the Trade.
Dullness continues in the hop mar
ket with no business of Importance
passing In any section of the world
at the moment.
Peach supplies along Front street
are very liberal with some sales of
Male's Karly around 50c. Early
Craw fords from eastern Oregon are
selling from 60c to 75c, according to
quality, but thus far the quality has
not been of the best. Home Elbertas
from the south are selling as high as
85c a box.
Culery from Denver ,1s arriving
In quite good shape and is finding
a demand around 90c a dozen. Some
from Olympia selling from 75c to
that figure.
Cantaloupe market Is down with
much larger supplies offering from
local points. Quotations go no high
er than $2 a crate and range down
to $1.50 for good stock.

Port hind Livestock .Market.
With the near-by available supply
showing a decrease, sheep display
more strength in the local market
than for some time past, but develop
ments toduy were not such as to war
rant any change In quotations. None
were received and livestock dealers
say the supply in the vulley Is about
gone. From this time on this mar
ket will have to draw on Eastern
Oregon, Idaho and the Kocky Mount
ain states very largely for its supply
of mutton.
The hog market is unchanged,
with prime porkers In good demand
at ton quotations, nnd stockers,
supply, somewhat less active at lower
figures. There Is a decided scarcity
of good hogs in the territory ad
jacent to Portland, and for months
to come a good deal of pork will
have to be brought in from the Mid
dle West.
Cnttle are steady at the prices that
hnve ruled for several days. In
lambs' and calves current receipts
are about equal to the requirements
of the trade.
