THE MARKETS :
t-
Nothing new in the markets today.
Sinee the wheat proposition is practic
ally settled and since the government
is about to regulate flour and sugar,
there will be practically no changes in
these commodities.
Eggs seem to be wavering in price.
While everybody figured they should
make rapid advance in price on account
of the small output and high cost of
poultry food, the price seems to refuse;
to go any higheT at present- In Salem
the figure is anywhere from 38 to 40
eents with a 41 cent price in Portland
for case count.

Stock Offering good
North Portland Union Stock Yards,
Sept. 21. Generally speaking the sup
ply of stock offered in the Portland
Union Stock Yards this week's opening
is complimentary to the producers. Some
of the cattle, especially, were as pretty
and as well bred as could be produced!
in any country. The conformation and I
finish of the best steers in the yard!
were almost perfect. !
CATTLE Sales opened early and;
briskly on a market that was stead? to
strong. In the first hour of trading the j
flow of cattle started across the scales.:
and the first lot weighed changed hands
at $9.75. Conditions are very satisfac
tory in the cattle market, and while the
supply is improving the demand for

Some Things Hoover Has
Done Towards Conserving
Food and Fixing Prices
Washington, Sept. 21. The warring
world and a largo portion of the ncu
tral nations are on rations today.
Thus far the rationing is voluutary
on the part of the war powers but
if the steps already taken to conserve
food do not suffice, thou compulsory
retiouing will be enforced. The neutral
nations, stem necessity forced by the
American embargo, had compelled strict
rationing.
With Lord Bhondda, British food
controlled, announcing his intention to
force conservation by eoir.p'tlsion if
needed Herbert Hoover, American
food administrator becomes even more
so than before the food dictator of the
world.
One of his first steps in proper ap
portionment of food is the establish
ment of an international sugar com
mission, which will bo followed by com
missions for other commodities, so that
the allies shall not bid against each
other in world markets aud by ' their
very bidding, force up prices.
To date Hoover has eliminated some
of the middk processes which absorb
ed profits, has established control over
wheat, has created a sugar commission,
has informed the Americuu people they
must ration themselves.
Pood Will Win the War. .
Hoover and other food controllers are
certain that food will win the war. Gor
many is not starving, but her prospects
of malnutrition grow constantly.
To conserve foodstuffs for the world,
Hoover already has taken tho follow
ing steps:
Licensed millers, sugar refiners and
packers; planned regulation of banking
industry, canneries and milk distribu
tion; by voluntary agreement fixed re
tail price of sugar at 7 1-4 cents a
pound Tednned price of flour; signed
several million in anti-waste campaign;
reduced garbage in the principal cities;
conclusively proving effectiveness of
campaign; and aided in greatest can
ning, preserving and food drying ac
tivity in country 's history.
Hoover announced ho intends to take
control of ten or twelve lending staple
commodities. His world-wide power is
illustrated by appeals of European neu
trals directly to him to release enough
foodstuffs to prevent their starvation.
Improvements aro in progress on the
lake at the McMinnville city park. The
Tilan, the News-Reporter says, is "to
beautify the pool and. transform it
from a holo in the ground filled with
water to a pretty little lake which can
be used after it is properly cemented
like a hugo vat, for a swimming pool."

Attack Engineers Operating
Railroad Behind the

By J. W. Pegler
( l'hited Press staff correspondent)
Headquarters of the American Army
in France, Sept 21. One military rail
road close behind the fighting linos is
being operated today by a regiment of
American transportation engineers,
some of whom have already received
their baptism of fire from an attack-,
ing German aeroplane.
