Commencement at the Oregon Agricultural College, including the an nual Pageant, Alumni day, baccalaur eate, class day, and graduation exer cises, will begin Friday afternoon, June 2, and conclude Tuesday noon, June 6. The pageant, which consists of The Seasons and Russian Fete Day, will occur Friday. Music for the occasion, furnished by the College Orchestra, directed by E. Hellier-Collens, will con sist chiefly of classics, which will be interpreted in the processionals and dances. On Friday evening, June 2, the senior play will be presented by the class. Alumni day, Saturday, June 3, has been chosen with a view to accommo date both the alumni who are teach ing and those who can spare only a week-end for the annual get-together. The usual noonday luncheon will be followed by the business meeting and by the class reunions, which are to be the big feature of alumni day this year. The 'lis, '06s, '01s, and so on are to hold special reunions, inaug urating a plan of five-year meets that promises to be a popular phase of these annual alumni events. In the evening the graduating class will be guests of the alumni at the annual ball. The baccalaureate service this year will be held in the afternoon, and the usual evening union meeting of the churches will, not be held. This plan has been inaugurated with a view to avoid any interference with regular church exercises on a day when the church-goers are especially interested to meet their outgoing student-members. Monday, June 5, will be class day. In addition to the usual out-door fes tivities of the graduates, there will be a review of the cadet regiment in the afternoon, and the graduating recital of the school of music in the evening. The academic procession and gradu ating exercises will occur Tuesday morning at ten o'clock. Unusual interest attaches to the events of Commencement this year by reason of the fact that all regular Col lege students will be in attendance.

A commodity even so Indirectly re lated to the demands of war as paper is showing the prevailing tendencies to suea a degree as sorlously to em barrass publishers. The higher price of paper stock and the difficulty of nhtainlnar It at all In Knulnnd was chief factor In the discontinuance In March of the Iomlon daily Standard after a career of sixty years, for a con siderable portion of which It was the most Important organ of the middle classes In England. In America the demand for paper has been increasing for six months as a result of general business activity. At the same time, supplies used In Us manufacture have been decreased by war conditions, and In some cases have almast been shut off. The supply of old rags Is affected by the cutting off of the importations from the European peasantry and by the demand for the making of guncot ton. The chemicals used in blenching the paper produced by sulphuric acid and alum are being devoured by the manufacturers of explosives, while Im portations of Juto have fallen off until the price is doubled. An embargo hus been placed on shipments of wool pulp from Norway and Sweden, while Canada stopped access to her vast re sources some time ago, The newspa per publisher is, indeed, hard hit by war conditions in many other items of supplies besides the basio one of paper stock. Practically everything going Into the manufacture of a dully newspaper has Increased in price from 10 to 60 per cent Inks, owing to the advance in the cost of acids and dyes, from 300 to 3000 por cent; type, owing to the higher cost of load, tin and an tlmony even the rubber and felt blankets wrapped around the press rollers add their quota to the Increased "cost-of-living" of the metropolitan daily.

Tacoma New potatoes of the best quality the local market has seen for years, according to commission men, rolled in Thursday for the first time this season. The new tubers, which are red, went out wholesale at 6 cents a pound in lug boxes and found an in stant market Regular shipments will be received from now on and as re ceipts increase prices will decline, say merchants. ' Celery is about through for the sea son, it is reported. The vegetable is quoted at $5.75 a crate. Radishes, telephone peas, artichokes, asparagus and lettuce arrived by steamer and went out quickly. The demand for green stuff increases daily. Apples continue to sell good. Wine- saps are the most popular variety here, wholesaling from $1.25 to $1.65 a box, Meats and poultry are firmer. No Change in Butter Expected. Tacoma Butter is firm and dealers do not look for a decline for two weeks yet. The market of the Pacific Coast is reported to be unchanged. Receipts of butter are none too large. Eggs are arriving plentifully and the mar ket is steady. Cheese is unchanged and the demand is light. The fish market is well supplied with various kinds of fish with the ex ception of salmon, since the season opened on salmon fairly good catches have been made by sportsmen on the Narrows and on Puget Sound. The fish, however, are not running in large enough schools to warrant fishing boats to go after them, according to dealers, Top-Notch Cattle Strong. Portland The cattle and sheep mar kets opened strong at the stockyards this week, but there was an easier un dertone in the hog market, and last week's extreme top prices in this were not repeated. Several loads of grain and pulp-fed steers were sold at $9 and a number of other loads of steers brought $8.50 and $8.75. Butcher cattle were strong, with a $7.80 mar ket for choice cows and a single head bringing $8. The hog market was off a nickel from last week. About 16 full loads were disposed of, one at $9.20.
