AUCTION MARKETS
ARE MAKING GOOD

Regular auction markets for box ap-
Piles have been established in Boston,
New York, Philadelphia, Pittsburg and
Chicago. The prices that have been
received for best quality of packs in
these markets have been startling to
shippers. The prices have been report
ed by the daily news service of the
Office Of Markets and Rural Organiza- :
tion, so that all have an opportunity to
know what is taking place.
The practice heretofore of making
the auction dumping ground for poor
fruit, has not been discontinued, and
accordingly, occasional low priced cars
are reported. A few large private sale
apple operators have endeavored to
discredit the auction by heralding these
sales broadcast with the suggestion
that good apples have been "slaugh-
tered" The reason why good apples
are never Slaughtered" in the large
established auction markets is a simple
one. The large we'll established houses.
as we'll as the smaller jubbers, brokers
and string store people are represented
at each of the daily auction sales. If
there is an opportunity to get box ap.
Piles at five cents a box less at auction
than from one of the few large apple
operators who are their rivals. that op.
portunity is seized upon. In the en-
deavor to get these bargains, the price
is often showed far above what the pri-
vate sale operators can procure.
This fact is recognized by those op-
orators in the lines of fruit which they
do not control. They buy winter and
fall pears, oranges, lemons, grape fruit
and numerous other fruits, and sell
through the auction houses in prefer
ence to using their own stores. Some
houses which are not so we'll estah-
lished in the apple trade as the private
sale operators, have this year adopted
the practice of buying I. o. b. and
later selling box apples at auction. 1t
is only question of short time until
the private sale box apple operators
will follow suit.
The shipper is safe in selling his ap-
Piles at auction in the markets where
regular supplies are now being sold at
public sale. He should have a good
representative who will not put his ap.
Piles upon the market if a temporary
glut has arisen. This rule applies to
the private sale market as we'll as to
the public sale market.
The shipper should not overlook the
fact that the selling cost at auction is
10 to 25::cents less box and also that
the retailer gets the fruit at less inter-
mediate handling expense. - -

APPLE NAME USED
AS SHARPER'S BLIND

The following clipping from the Sar
Francisco Examiner was received last
week by v. d. Lii, of the Hood River
Produce Exchange:
Night and day for three weeks a po.
liceman has stood at the door of a
building at $40 Mason street.
Upstairs in a small room, with big
room opening off il sits kid" Weller
at desk during the daytime. The
doors are barred and barricsded on the
inside-after Weller gets inside, so the
police say.
On the window, SO that those outside
may see, is a sign which says: Hood
River Apple Company. 1t was put
there, the police say. by Weller after
he opened up-or rather, closed up
the place.
Night and day for three weeks the
police have been waiting for the first
consignment of apples. For three
weeks Weller is the only man who has
entered the place. The police say il
must be lonesome for him. A man
named Sullivan" appeared at the
door few times and went away.
The cause of 1t is is this:
Word reached the police not long ago
that Weller. who is notorious, they say,
in racetrack and pool-selling circles,
had rented the place and fixed it up as
a poolroom. As ruse, they say. he
painted the sign of the Hood River
Apple Company" on the window. Sui
livan. they claim, is one of the operat-
ors of the poolroom circle.
Captain of Police GIeeson got wind
of it all. He directed that a policeman
watch the place day and night and see
that no one enters except the owners.
For three weeks this has gone on.
Not an apple has entered the place.

WHAT THE BREWERY
AMENDMENT MEANS

The insertion of comma after the
words ''for medicinal purposes. and
before the words "upon prescription of
q licensed physician" makes it pos
sible for druggists to sell for medicinal
purposes without prescription, and for
physicians to prescribe it for other
than medicinal purposes.
Ii is a rule of law that person does
a thing himself when he does it through
an agent" The old saloons would
open with the proprietors brewers

in fact.
The license law has been wiped out.

they would pay no license, could sell

DAYS. Not only saloons, but pool halls,
cigar stores. barber shops, livery sta

stores, soda fountains. drug stsres,
fruit stands, groceries and janitors of
apartment houses would become
"agents also the scarlet women who.
for the most part, left US along with
beer, their chief procurer and drawer
of trade, while brewery wagon drivers
would work the home trade.
Since the local option law is repealed
these "agents" could go into places
formerly dry under the local option
law, and outside of the incorporated
places where they were before barred

perseded by this proposed new consti.

That an increased allowance for de.
liveries is contemplated, is shown by
the words ''in such quantity or under
such regulations as may be prescribed
by law" "Until otherwise prescribed
by the legislature. mot the people)
delivery shall be limited to the same
quantity as persons are now permitted
to import into the state under existing
laws" If this is adopted they will
move heaven and earth to have the leg
islature raise the allowance or abolish
it altogether.

Hood River Hens Strike

A fresh egg famine prevails in Hood
River. Although eggs are now selling
here for so cents per dozen it is impos.
sible for grocers to supply but small
portion of their trade. Orchardists
owning hens say that they have ceased
to lay almost altogether since apples
began to fall. 1t is thought that the
acid of the fruit stops egg laying.
Many fruit growers. although they owr
large flocks of chickens, are having to
buy their supply of eggs.
Grocers are we'll supplied with colo
storage egg stocks, the prevailing price
of which is from 40 to 45 cents pei
dozen.

TO WATCH GRAIN TRADING.
U, S. Officials to Prosecute Any IN
,.4 lawful Ma pulation.

Chicago, Aug. 11--Federal investiga
ton OF the sudden rise in the price Oh
wheat is not probable. according to
District Attorney Hoyne. However, ne
expects TO keep a close watch on &C
tivities of spectators on the wheat
market to prevent unlawful manipula =
tons, he said.
No action can be started in Chicago
until orders are received from Wash
ington, and such orders are not ex-
pected. despite rumors that federal
investigation had begun. The sudden
rise in the price of wheat Mr.. Hoyne
asserted. appears to have been the re-
suit of natural shortage and not due
to any illegal combination Of operators,
either in New York or Chicago.
No evidence is at hand to warrant
official action, but should future deal
in2s be conducted illegally the district
attorney said he will take steps to
prosecute.
Flour prices have been boosted ia
nearly the highest levels since the war
started, the action of the millers fol-
lowing the enormous enhancement in
wheat prices.
Special brands Of spring wheat -four
were advanced yesterday 40 cents a
barrel making the present price $50
an upturn of nearly 81 since the present
rise in wheat values started. Prices
for -four are based on the price of
wheat, and if the wheat advance con-
tinues flour millers will be forced to
advance the price of their product &C
cordingly, or at the rate of about 5
cents per barrel for every / cent ad-
vance in wheat.
The advance in wheat and -four
prices has come so quickly that bakers
have not had much time as yet to con-
slider the changed conditions in regard
to the price of wheat, but leading bak-
ers were of the opinion that retail val
ues for bread might have to be raised
if they were forced to pay much higher
prices for -four.
