SALES GREATEST
PORTLANU. Ore., NOT. 2S (flV
The greatest sale of turkeys ever
made In Portland for Thanksgiving
was being; concluded bent today.
Never before bad the birds been
slaughtered and sold In such numbers.
The chief factor In forcing the rec
ord movement was the price, the
continued talk of low values having
created an appetite for turkeys thst
was filled by an avalanche of birds.
The better quality presented dur
ing the past few days, although far
below the normal standard, resulted
In better marketing but no Improve
ment in price.
The Portland market, however, with
all Its record low values, stood up
well along with other centers along
the soast. The California trade was
especially hurt by the extreme sup
ply consigned to the market by Ore
gon growers and distributors. At
San Francisco the general top price
available for shlppera of Oregon birds
was about 16 cents for torn and
fancy hens and 10 cents for medi
ums. In Portland today the price was
10 to 13 cents sllve, and 13 to 16
cents dreased.

PORTLAND. Ore., Nov. 33 (AP)
In the opinion of lef.oers of Mia trade
a lower price for egs seem :d likely
within the near future.
B. J. Dixon, general manager of
the Pacific Co-ops, said the under
tone of the trade suggested a weaker
movement and a lower price which
may be forced almost any day.
Late advance In the price of but
ter was considered far too heavy and
a dragging tone la suggested In the
local and California trade as a re
ault. Sutter continues to show
seasonable make.
Unusually good holiday movement
of cheese Is reported, both out of
primary sources and In the Jobbing
trade. Prices appear generally firm,
but unchanged.
While there Is a shortage of hens
of all sorts In the live chicken trade.
aprlnger stuff remains very slow sale
and weak as to price.
