Boston, April 20.-The worlds champion

POOLING OF HOPS IS
UNW|SE SAYS GROWER
Thinks 1t Will Simply Take Quantity
Out Of Market and Leave Sur
plus for Next Fall.
NO BASIS UPON WHICH
MARKET CAN REST, HE SAYS
Estimated That There Are 10000 OF
More Bales Now Being Held
On Coast for Raise.

In the Judgment of many of the 10.
cal hop growers and hop merchants, the
market is at present showing dis
position entirely too fickle. In other
words, the price of hops is unsettled
and neither do the willy buyer or the
foxy growers know just where it is
going to land permanently or if it will
find resting place at all for months
to come.
In remarking about the present mar.
ket conditions, one leading merchant
and grower stated that the unsettled
prices are due to the fact that the grow
ers are stirring up too much excitement
over their proposed pooling system in
Oregon, Washington and California. He
says that just as long as there is no
basis upon which the market can rest
for a reasonable length Of time, just
50 long will the market be quiet aud
business dih. The hopman further pre-
dicted that unless the growers and
merchants can arrive at some under
standing as to what is the proper
actual value of the crops now on hand,
there will probably be decline result
ing before long and then sales will be
few and far between. This, he says,
is more. probable in view of the fact
that there are $4,000 or more bales
now being held up on the coast.
Must Have Movement.
There must be some activity in the
market or prices will never remain up
to the present standard, it is said.
Pociipg the hops and holding them out
of the market win only have ten
dency to crown their actual value and
finally end up with those entering the
pool having a job lot on hand when the
lll4 crop is unloaded and then with n
portion of last years crop unsold and
possibly as still larger output ready for
harvest, the market will stink toward
the bottom of the list and remain there
indefinitely.
