TET. ' ' . I ,
(From Sunday's Dally.) '
Tho hop market continues to be the
subject f considerable attention in
this city, and growers are beginnftHrto
make Inquiry and ftudy the situation
with, regard to the future of the market
with great Interest, ; Growers general
ly look for an advance In prices far
above the present quotations, and they
are disposed to hold on to their prod
uct for" the expected advance. For this
reason, it' Is found somewhat difficult
for dealers to secure enough hops to
fill aM the orders received, and they
are waiting for. developments, v '
In some few cases sales have been
made. One dealer reports the purchase
of about 700 bales , since the- market
opened, at from 20 to 214 cewts a
pound, while others have bought small
lots at even higher figures.
' Contract hops are beginning to be ta
ken In by the dealers, and those grow
ers having sold : their hops early on
contract are about the only ones who
are ore." , However, they made the
bargains themselves and now must live
up to their agreements.
Mr. James Winstanleyi Secretary of
the Oregon Hop Growers', Association,
was seen, by a Statesman reporter yes
terday, regarding the hop market. He
said in discussing conditions, that the
shortage which had been apparent
earlier in the season, was a reality;
that the world's crop was far short- of t
the requirements for the next year, and
that hops, therefore, were bound to ad
vance..". . i
"It growers will be firm holders." he
said.- "they will get good prices within
30 to 60 days.
Mr. Winstanley is himself a grower.
and Says he has no fear of the future
of the market, that he will realize good
figures for his product, and that all
growers can do so if they will not rush
their hops into the market too early,

The Kentish Observer, an authority
on hops In England, In Its issue . of
September 18th, published circulars of
a number of hop factors, dealing with
the situation, and all of these dealers
agree that there is. a shortage in the
hop crop that means higher prices; One
of these firms, Messrs. Wests, Jones &
Co., hop factors, 16, St. Thomas's street.

Our reports from the plantations state
that the crop is proving considerably

and growers are also greatly disap
pointed with the results. The Govern
ment return shows a substantial, and,
to the brewer, serious reduction in the
acreage, which hai now fallen to 48,

which existed nearly a. century ago. In

energy or the growers, coupled with
lavish expenditure on washing, to par
