HOP MEN ARE VERY

Oregon hop is going to be a hummer
this year and no country in the world
will he able to hold II candle to the
product now hanging thick on the vines
In this territory. Owing TO the ideal
climatic conditions this year the vines
have grown so rank and fast that it is
hardly possible for one to see many feet

Daily capital journal. (Salem, Oregon) 1903-1919, 1913-08-20

Hopgrowers and hop dealers are
standing pat and there are neither sales
nor contracts. Growers think they
should have at least 20 cents and buy
ers rate the price as anywhere between
that figure and IS cents. In cOnse-
quence there will probably be but little
movement in the crop until picking is
through, or at least well under way.
Weather conditions in England and on
the continent are favorable, and indi-
cate lower rather than higher prices.
An agreement has been reached by
which all the first quality apples Of the
northwest will be marketed under the
trade mark Of "Skookum," a Chinook
word, as most 0regonians, and all Web
feet know, means excellence in the
highest degree, whether in strength, to
which it is generally applied, or any
thing else. Lemons are higher peaches
scarce and higher and watermelons al.
most off the water wagon, and disrepu-
table as to price. Wheat remains un.
changed as to prices,
