do.

PORTLAND, Ore., Deo. SO. All
makes of cheese advanced a cent a
pound here today, following an an
nouncement by Curl llaberluch, man
ager of the Tillamook association, to
the effect that they had increased
their prices a cent. Tillamook triplets
are now quoted at 2fl cents, f. o. b.
Portland, with Tillamook loaf nt 30
cents a pound.
Increasing cost of hay, grain and
feed, together with a fallliiK off In
production due to the extreme cold
spell which has prevailed during the
last few weeks, are the principal fac
tors iu forcing the advance.
The demand during the holidays has
been extremely brisk this year, with
receipts iu the local nuirket cleaning
up ns fnRt as they came in. At the
same time orders nt Tillamook have
exceeded the make, creating n very
bullish situation.
Mellowest and other Oregon tnnkes
of cheese promptly followed the ad
vance In Tillamook, with prices on
cream triplets now ranging from 24
to 25 cents and from 25 to 26 centB
for loaf in Uie local market. i
The live poultry markers firm, with
receipts moderate. Heavy hens are
selling around 23 cents; light hens,
iB to 17 cents; springs, 20 to 22 cents.
White' Peltln ducks are scarce nt 20
to 21 cents; live geese, lfi cents; live
turkeys, 23 to 24 cents. There is no
call for dressed turkoys, ducks and
geese nnd prices are weak. Fancy
dressed Toms around 35 cents with
light turkeys nt 32 cents.
Kggs nro lower, with a noticeable
increase In receipts and narrower
shipping demand. Current receipts
selling on the street nt 44 cents. Kx
tras and pullets a cent lower on the
exchange, with firsts posted two cents
lower. i Other grades nro unchanged.
Country meat arrivals along the
street were moderate this morning
and prices were higher, reflecting the
extreme advances at the yards yester
day. Choice light veal are selling nt
14 cents, with choice light hogs at
13 cents.
. Butter prices are steady today, with
no change in bid prices on the local
hoard.
