HOP MEN
Increase In Cost of Twine

albany Special to Portland Journal.)
The recent phenomenal advance in
the cotton market has made itself felt
in the Oregon hop trade in no uncer.
tain terms, owing to the sharp ad,
vance of cotton twine, an article used
extensively by hop growers. Cotton
twine is being used in all of the hop
yards to train vines, and the cost of
the article is no small part of the ex
pense of caring for the hop yards. A
few years ago cotton twine was
bought by the growers at IL to IA
cents a pound, but the quotations now
are "a to 20 cents a pound, and the IT,.
creased cost falls on the grower ex.
clusively. Where hop yards are strung
with twine both ways, IA to Is pounds
per acre of twine is used, while those
growers using wire in one direction
and using twine only from the hop
hills to the wires use from 7 to 8
pounds per acre. There are about
10000 acres of hops in Oregon, and
fully 10000 acres of hops will require
an average of pounds of twine per
acre. costing the Oregon the growers
an increase of $4,000 for twine alone
more than the cost of growing the
hops last year.
A new twine has been placed on the
market, and number of growers are
experimenting with 1t. 1t is not cot.

than is the cotton twine It is called
a waterproof. and II is claimed for the
new twtns that 1t will last much long.
er than will the old-style cotton twine
used, but its weight is so much that
II saves little in cost over that twine
used in the past, and experiments now
being made are for the purpose of
testing its lasting qualities Hop
growers at the present are in the
hands of the dealers in cotton twine so
far as this necessity is concerned. but
should the experiment with the new
iwine prove a success, they will soon
be more Independent.

CONGRESS
MultnOmah Delegation
will Be Solid
SAYS the simon Managers
Will Cast Their Strength
TO Harris

Portland Journal Malcolm Moody
came down from Eastern Oregon yes
terday, fresh from his triumphs, and
ever since his arrival he has beer
working tirelessly to advance his cam
paign for the nomination. He claims
that he will have fully two-thirds oi
the delegates from the eastern coun.
ties. and with this leverage he hopes
to break into the Multnomah delega-
ton. Upon his success in doing this
his chances of the nomination now de-
pend.
If his claims and expectations are
justified, he will come into the con-
vention with 20 or more votes from
Eastern Oregon. There will be '1S4
delegates in the convention and SO will
be required to nominate.
Moody is claiming that every unin-
structed delegation from Eastern Ore
gon is for him." said Frank Baker,
chairman of the Republican state cen
trail committee. "There is no founda'
ton for such claims, as we know that
in several instances uninstructed del
egates are for Williamson. Moody is
beaten, and l do not believe that his
name will be presented to the con-
vention."
Judge Carey and Frank Baker have
made a careful canvass Of the delega.
tion from this county and talked with
every delegate who is suspected of
desire to vote for Moody. They feel
confident that they have averted the
danger of break in the ranks, and
say that Multnomah's II votes will be
cast solidly in accordance with the in.
structions of the county convention.
The fight between Harris and Her.
mann in the first district is much
closer, and the result is still in doubt.
The attitude of Linn county may prove
decisive of the contest, though it is
believed by some that the delegation |
will be split. Jackson county has gone /,
