Much New Wheat, drain men estimate that about 10,(100,000 bushels of the new crop la the Pacific Northwest have been sold to dale. Practically all this wheat has been bouKht by a few of the larger exporters, the smaller deal ers not being able to operate to any Krcat extent hecausu of thu extreme prion offered by the exporters. These prices In many cases hnvo been sev eral cents above tho export value of wheat. A good part of the purchases are said to have'been on the export basis, but where competition has been encountered bids have been made ronsiPr.-ibly higher. The snial ler dealers, those who buy Irom 'he farmers and sell to exporters anil millers or to the California trade, are iinablu to meet the figures offered: i (i... f.nti'rv Kt the iiri-dfiil lime und are pra I'ally lillt-P but expei-t to have their Inning later, when the' 'heavy export buying slows cj'iwn. I The reason for the large operations of the exporters Is still a mauer in !niu h conjei tore, as the condition of foreign markets at the present time I apparently does not Justify the buy I ing movement at high prices at this end. It Is surmised In some quarters that the speculation Is purely in an ticipation of Improved conditions la ter, and if this Is the case, the farm ers will find It a good thing for thern I to have such Influential holders sup i porting the market. On the other I hand, many members of tho trade still believe that the recent flurry and the maintenance of high prices Is but the effort of some of the ship pers to squeeze others who are sup ! posed to have sold short or made ex i..n.iva if.nmifK .rtai;eliients. At any rate, while buying at the moment Is not heavy, prices offered In the country are held up to the old figure, regardless of changes taking nlace abroal or In the Kaatern ex changes. Farmers are holding firmly i In the hope of a later rise, while buy ers are not disposed to oner more and ran do absolutely nothing by offering less. The oats market Is quiet but firm. There Is the customary demand, but very little la being offered, as only a small part of the crop has been thrashed so far. Old oats are well cleaned up and aa there la a good In quiry for them, buyers are required to pay stronger prices. This keeps up the Ideas of farmers In regard to the new crop. Hurley continues dull, with the un dertone barely steady. Offerings have been larger than usual In the last few dnys. drain prices are unchanged at the Hoard of Trade yesterday. Bids for wheat were more numerous but a cent separated the Ideas of buyers and sellers and prevented the closing U UWJ unoitii.il.. Itecelpts for the day were 61 cars and 4472 sacks wheat; 2 cars and 330 sacks oats; 7 cars andlOba sacks of barley; 504 sacks four; 1447 sacks bran and 16 tars and 555 bales bay. il,.,. tlmriu An Kcnreil. .n : : : l-artlll OI eieiy Kiiau.J.. ...a draws across the hop market, short ... n,.-., ..... ,l,.ltii imif-h as.irrvilll' thefce days for to dale t covered Eugene Theater MH.

Song Hits-20 Numbers Prices: 25c, 50c, 75c and $ 1 .00 Sale opens Wednesday morning at 9 o'clock but a fraction of tseir supplies around 4 and r'c !. but the fact tnal arowers ar. lainivg awat4 of not gathering their hops, has in-1 .- duced the leaders to begin contract-', ing again. None of them are, how- Til ever, paying over lie a pound. It Is ! Btated that Julius Plncus of Salem is i taking on large lots for his relatives at Tacoma Messrs. Isaac Planus & Sons but the Salem man denies It. In any event It Is stated that some contracting for the Tacoma firm s account has been done recently around 7 and sc a pound. Messrs. I'lncus & Sons are said tobe the larg est short selling hop firm In the coun try at this time. Some time ago the members of the firm were in i-oruano. and through a morning paper en deavored to force the growers to cul tivate and afterward pick their crop. This was done by the firm talking of a higher market. All this lime while talking of excellent chances for the growers to make money on their crops of 1908, the Tacoma firm Is said to have been selling every bale short it could find a purchaser for even though the price be several cents below actual cost of produc tion. lUiiu Will Help Crop. The late rains In the Willamette valley will help the hop crop ma terially and the estimates of dealers and growers are being raised. The vines are looking quite healthy and there la practically no vermin re ported. The same condition rules In Washington. Joe Harris of Salem, who was In Portland yeBterday, states he has re- cc ved a cable from h-ng- land estimating a crop of r30.000 hundredweight, com pared with a crop of about 375,000 hundredweight a year ago. I' or tne continent Mr. Harris' cable gives an estimate of 1,210,000 hundredweight compared with a crop of .about 000,000 a year ago. Itutter Market Mixed. There is a mixed condition in the local butter market at the moment. The advance of one creamery yester day to 32 Mc started the rest of the makers who fear the market baa been advanced already to too high a fig ure. While the local market In It self Justifies a further advance in value, outside conditions are oppo site and already shippers of eastern stocks have taken advantage of the fact that the Portland market la -the highest In the country and are pre paring to make further shipments on this direction. The one car recently arrived has been cleaned up at about 7c a pound loss than what city mak ers are asking for their best produc tion. A further advance In local valueB would have the effect of forc ing large shipments In this direction from California as well ns from the east, and this would break the local markot In half. l'OKTLAM) MAIIKKTH.
