HOGS ADVANCE IN
EASTERN MARKETS
PRICES NOT TESTED
AT NORTH PORTLAND
Scarcity Is Pronounced and Further
Advance Is Likely-Cattle Prices
Unchanged-Sheep Market Firm
Wheat Soaring.
(From Wednesdays Journal. }


Sharply higher prices were again
forced in the price of hogs at all
points east of the Rockies today Not
enough stock came to North Portland
to influence the market one way or
the other and prices are nominally
continued at yesterdays advance at
81 25 for tops.
The real sensation of the day was
the rise of 25c at Kansas City but
similar rise was shown for some
stock at the Missouri river market.
Kansas City was exceedingly firm for
the day with the quarter rise quickly
forced although the showing of sup
plies reached a total of $4,000 head
for the day. Tops sold there this
morning at $760@765.
Swine Scarcity Is Pronounced.
With the packing season in full
swing at leading centers, the smaller
number of hogs available on Ameri-
can farms today is clearly shown. An
| ticipations have all been for great
er showing than a year ago, even
though the government report gave
smaller number as available.
Present prospects are that there
will be a further sharp advance at
North Portland As matters stand
this is the lowest market that com
petes for the trade of the west and
middle west.
The only showing of hogs in the
Yards today was a few head brought
forward from Mccoy by c. H. Far
mer. who had a mixed load of hogs
and sheep.

Old Time Concert

One Of the most excellent
musical events of the season
was the concert given by the
choir at the Presbyterian
church last evening under the
direction Of Mrs. G. S. Green.
The program consisted Of
the songs Of long ago. The first
number was "Auld Lang Syne"
rendered by the choir. This
piece gave the key to the con-
cert and was followed by
"Jaunita" sung as a duet by
Mr.. Mason Ramey and Miss
