' 1 '. : '-" This Years' Vines Need Warm Weather Prices Good. . ' The majority tf the bop yards In the tate would be in, much better condition 'it they bad few more days , warm weather. The weather so far this year has been rather, unfavorable tor the hop vines, but . they have don remarkably well under ' the circumstances.. In some of the fields up the valley the hop leaves are beginning to turn yellow on account " of Insufficient sunshine- u ' i .- ' Dealers "all over the coast think tnls wlH be 'the most prosperous -yeas, la the history of the hpp Industry In the state. Good prices art being secured by contract ing, and If the dealer Is a well establish ed ode, growers da much 'better on an average by contracting their annual yield In advance. 1 - , , - Jit the present time the contract price ranges from. U 'cents to 13K cents, - and fc there Is some talk'of even a higher rats being offered. 1 . ,' At nearly all of the last year's crop Is sold there Is not much Interest In the prices obtained now- Jforthat yield. Deal '.ers today' are (juotlftg as high, as 1 cents f for good stock of the 1901 cropr A ' ' Before the last Season opened dealers were around telling -the growers about the large crops that were growing in the for eign countries and also In tlseEastern and Western, states of this Country They ' claimed 'that with such a large output ; that prices'Would necessarily be very low, but they figured- without their host as there was a short crop In nearly all the places mentioned. ' : i The pooling of a large amount of the ' valley hops also had a tendency to stiffen tip prices a trifle. ' The entire lot , of pool ed hops were sent to London In charge of a special representative of the' grow ers Interested, and the entire lot sold at th top price,: in the London market ,-, It Is said that about . one-third of the next year's Oregon bop crop is already contracted, for, the prices ranging from 10 cents to ll cents a pound. " ' v Reports from the celebrated Puyallup 'district In "Washington state that the hops - there are looking fine. All Indications point to a much larger crop than ever. The hops are a little taller than the tops Of the poles and present a very gooa color. The Taoome Ledger- says of the prospects: Hop growers are being of fered 12 and It cents per pound for this season's crop, an increase of 8 cents'over the contract prices of last yean and the hop growers are Jubilant over the present prospects for a big harvest with good prices, 'The hop crop locttTwell, In fact better than' It ever did before at this sea son of the year. ' If the present conditions continue -and the market remains firm there will be good money In the business for the grower this year, and those who have hops to sell will find ,& ready and reasonable market Hops of the . 1901 season are quoted on the market at from 14, to 16 cents per pound.

The walls of the .Lawrence building have reachel up - - one story. The brick piers or the Falling building are progressing satisfactorily, The carpen ters are pushing their work along on Dr. K. A. J. MacKenale's new building at the corner of Sixth and Davis streets, and something la decidedly doing, also, on. I. Lewis' building at Fifth and Davis streets. '.- Cement walks are replacing plank walks in many parts of the town." the Improvement In this lino along Third street recently will be especialy appre ciated by the public. Another Improve ment, that deserves notice, particularly because It was so long neglected, are the repairs to the pavement on 'VPashlnr ton street Between Third and" Fourth there Here exactly, 13 .holes-funlucky number) which have been repaired. Thirteen unsightly "chuck t holes" ;ln the asphalt pavement are not calculated to give visitors to the city a very good im pression as to the enterprise of Portland residents. If this sort of thing only continues every one will be pleased. It Is a matter that is "up to',, tha city engineering department . ' It Is to be hoped that the labor troubles will soon be settled because It Is rumored that Henry VV'etnhard has decided to post pone the erection of his proposed building on Oak street this season, on account of the strike, on the building Mr. Weln hard has already under construction at Fourth and Alder streets the . bases and other stones for the piers are. getting on in a very encouraging manner to the contractor, Mr. Langford. The other day a block of stone weighing 10 tons was de posited in front of the site of the new Welnhard building, to be cut up :,and dressed Jrtto sections foi the pier bases. The stone work for - the t addition to the First National Bank buUdlng are up, and the stone proves an excellent match for tne walls In the main building. The residence of Walter F.

G. H. Smith, one of Portland's wide awake real estate men, said yesterday; "The backwardness with which the election returns came In and .the general uncertainty resulting therefrom, have had a tendency to interrupt the course of real estate transactions. The attention ft the public has-been distracted, but now that the, contest is over . matters wm arop back into their natural Channels again, "As the result of a partial, settlement of the strike, building operations hayy been only artly resumed. .All these things tend to Interfere with the realty business.' Notwithstanding, there is some thing doing In real estate every day, and there will be more later oil ., V "In the matter of real estate outside of the city there Is a decidedly heavy demand for timber lands, whether they are Immediately accessible .or not. Some desire to buy as an Investment and are Witling to wait 10 years for results. "Thero Is -xm inquiry by newcomers from the East 'Jet screage, especially Tyithln HtKi'iOimlle-llmlt of. the cityThese tracts bring trom 35 to saw per acre. The matter does not stop with Inquiry, either, for a great many are buying. Some ask for lands already improved; others want unimproved "property. Fruit ranches seem to be most in demand Just now."
