SCHUCKING HAS RETURNED FROM AN EXTENDED ,; . TRIP EAST. (From Wednesday's Daily.); "B. O. Schucking .the hop dealer, reached Salem - last night from an ex tended visit in the Eastern elates and California, in the interest of his hop business. Mr; St bucking traveled sev eral thousand miles, visited a dozen, states, and as many different climates. besides passing through the scenes of withering droughts, and devastating storms and , floods, but he seemed as well pleased on arriving home again to the cool, green Willamette valley, as would a boy have been on receiving money from home, " ; . : -t Mr. Schucking was greeted, at the depot on his arrival by a Statesman re porter, who asked him to say some thing, and his face was .wreathed in smiles as he replied: "You tell them I am awfully glad to reach home again." ! Mr. Schucking is fat and as healthy looking as though he had enjoyed ,the trip and had, been Very successful in his mission, but then he always looks that way. lie weroed in a hurry to get down town and eat a dish of deli cious Salem strawberries, but, never theless, he stopped toe a few minutes' chat with the reporter, who kept him busy answering questions on the bop situation. He said: "I stopped first in Chicago, where I visited the principal, brewers., aiftl then went on to New York state, where 1 visited all of the principal hop prodouc ing sections.- and tne cities of Albany; Utica. Buffalo and New York. I fouha the growing hop in fine avondition not withstanding the ' fact that there had not been rain for seven weeks. The expectation was fbr a good yield, "and brewers were 'estimating the crop at from 60.000 to 70,000 bales. : " "The Eastern market is in good healthy condition, but 1 don't look for any further advance on' the 1902 crop. Brewers stocks are light, and there are very few bales In deaTers hands In the East, but the greater portion of J the beer which will be consumed this sum mer, was made last winter,' and then again, brewers do not like to be forced." and rather than to pay more than the market value for hops. . the jr will not buy at alL ;. - ;' : ; , "After leaVThg New York I traveled through a large number of the Eastern states, visiting the principal 'cities, and found the conditions about the same. In California- I visited San Francisco and Sacramento, and went out Into the hap growing' secions. In my judgment the growing crop is in good condition, and California will produce as many hops this year as last. In Wheatland the crop will be very light, but In So noma it Is as much heavier to make un the deficiency. The vines are well ad vanced there and look as though har vest was not far off. "Yea. the prospects are good for the 1903 crop so far as prices are concerned and I don't think growers will fmd any cause for complaint. The confidence of the brewers, on the stability of the market for the future, is shown by a willingness, on their part, to accept contracts for a term of years on a bas is of 15 cents per pound to the grower."
