The Markets


The wheat market is of decidedly
stronger tone and prices are trifle
stronger. Bluestem is in demand and
is quoted at 81 cents. Hops are steady,
with slightly upward tendencies. Sono-
mas are quoted in San Francisco at 25
cents. In England the demand is grow
ing stronger, but growers are not dis
posed to let go at the prices offered.
There are few sales reported anywhere,
growers and dealers not agreeing on
prices Everything points to better
prices, as there is undoubtedly heavy
hortage the world over. No advance
will be made in butter, New Zealand
imports holding the market steady, W..
9. Morden, of Ilwaco, has succeeded in
growing first-class article of cranber-
ries, and says he will be able to supply
the northwest next year, or rather, his

do so. Portland imports annually about
10 carloads of cpnberries.

This is the second time in two years
DOnnelly has freed himself both times

scaled the wall to the roof, ran across

Escapes In Dust Storm.
On July 10 1911, Donnelly was work

noon a sudden dust storm came up The
dust was so thick objects ten feet

HotD to Make
Better Cough Syrup than
You Can Bay
A Family supply, Saving Sc
and Fully Guaranteed.

A full pint Of cough syrup--as much
as you could buy for $2.50-can easily
be made at home. You will find nothing
that takes hold Of the ordinary cough
more quickly, usually conquering it IN
side Of "a hours. Excellent, too, for
spasmodic Group, whooping cough, bron-
chial asthma and bronchitis.
Mix one. pint OF granulated sugar with
" pint Of warm water, and stir for Q
minutes. Put 215 ounces of Pinex fifty
cents worthl in pint bottle, then add
the Sugar Syrup. 1t keeps perfectly,
Take teaspoonful every one, two or
three hours.
This is Just laxative enough to help
relieve cough. Also stimulates the
appetite, which is usually upset by a
cough. The taste is pleasant.
The effect of pine and sugar syrup on
the inhamed membranes is well known.
Pinex is a most valuable concentrated
compound of Norway white pine extract,
rich in guaiacol and other natural
healing pine elements. Other prepara-
tions will not work in this combination.
This Pinex and Sugar Syrup remedy
has often been initiated, but the old sue.
cessful mixture has never been equaled
1t is now used in more homes than any
other cough remedy.
A guaranty Of absolute satisfaction
or money promptly refunded, goes with
this preparation. Your druggist has
Pinex, or win get it for you. II not

FRUIT MEN OPPOSED
TO EIGHT-HOUR Law

Forty or moro leading fruit growers,
Gamers and others interested in the
welfare Of the fruit growers in the val
ley, assembled in the auditorium Of the
Salem Commercial club quarters yes
terday afternoon and discussed matetrs
pertaining to tho eight.hour law and
the effect the act will have upon the
fruit growers, The meeting was called
for the sole purpose Of formulating
plans whereby the fruit men, Gamers
and packers may be exempt from the
eight.hour law, on the grounds that the
provisions in tho act are such that oil
three industries will suffer more or less
therefrom.
II is contended by the canners and
packers that IL the law is followed TO
the letter during the fruit-growing
season, many carloads Of fruit win be
damaged on account Of the law com
peling laborers to cease work at GER
tain time, whether or not wagon load
Of fruit has just arrived at the cannery
or packing establishment, and Consc.
qucntly IL win be left out all night some
times before transferred to the proper
storage quarters.
A resolution was submitted by II, r.
Roberts to Tho effect that the welfare
commission, which will meet in Port
land shortly, be requested to declare
the fruit growers Gamers and packers
Of fruit exempt from the eighthoqr
law.
