PORTLAND AREA
PORTLAND, Ore.. Jun 17. (AP)
Lat decline In production and offer
ing of butter here has been extremely
marked and has created more than
passing Interest In the Immediate fu
ture of values.
Demand for butter continues In ex
cess of current supply. To the nor
mal demand for table or cutting use,
Is added the speculative call, whloh
remains more or leas persistent.
There was no change in general
prices for the day.
Market for egg was still without
general price change here, although
stocks of quality stuff are still de
creasing; In fact, all arrivals are less.
Underselling by holders of hot weath
er stock and by producers appear the
cause.
Live poultry market continues to
show nothing by a very low tone lo
cally. Some extreme fancy Blng cherries
out of the Mllton-Preewater section
were on display today. The stock was
packed face and fill, the fruit of
fancy quality, priced up to $?.50.
Announcement Is made by the Gen
eral Grocery company of an advance
of another dime per hundred pounds
In the local price on sugar, effective
Saturday morning. The new price
will be (4.20 for best cane and $3.95
for beet.
The snap Is out of the tomato deal
here with increasing stocks of hot
house together with a very liberal
gain of Californlan. Sales of hothouse
are reported at IS 20c pound with
little above 18c. The market is not
so good.

fountain yesterday, passing for a
United States of America, quarter and
Its Identity was not revealed until
last night, when a check on the day's
business was made by W. O. Webster.
Neither his son Ranson, nor daugh
ter Mlllicent, who operate the foun

but both described it as looking very
much like the sliver pfece, known to
the westerner as "two-bits."
A standing goddess deco rates
"heads" for each coin, but "tails" are
decidedly different, as la also the
weight of the money.
These two Items wouldn't bother
him at all, though, Ranson Webster

worth about four cent now and we
accepted It for 85."
