Furry In Market
Causes Price Of Hops
to Advance Materially

Portland, Or July 28.-There i.
something of furry on in the hor
market and at the moment the pros.
poets look brighter than they have for
months past. The American production
TINS year is going to be small, while the
consumption promises to be normal, and
| even without exports there may be no
surplus IN this country.
The Oregon hop crop is estimated by
trade authorities at 10000 bales. Last
year the crop was 100000 bales. and
probably 10000 bales more were left
unpieked. In California the aereaee re-.
duetion was not as extensive as in Ore
gon. yet southern dealers estimate their
state will produce only $4,000 to S5. 900
bales. The total American crop is nut
at $4,000 bales, and with the beer ont.
put about as large as in previous years,
an tne 1917 American crop can be con
sumed at home
Hop men believe that the prohibition
question is settled so far as this season
IS concerned. and brewers will proceed
to supply themselves with raw mater.
ials as in past years.
In california a number o. recent 1917
contracts have been made at l2 and
i21a cents, and it is said that l3 cents
have been offered. Spot Sonoma hops
have sold lately at 10 and 10b cents.
which is considerably betters than the
price that prevailed several weeks ago.
New Oregon hops are also in demand,
but. dealers report it very difficult to
line up the growers. 1t is probable that
when the final showing is made il will
be found that nearly all the Oregon hop
yards that remain in existence are COW
cred by contracts made last winter or
earlier. If the present demand comes
from shorts, there is hkeliheod that
the efforts to buy will result in stiIl
higher prices.

.DABY'S DEATH CAUSES
THAT OF ITS MOTHER
When Doctors Permitted De.
formed Baby to Die,
Mothers S Heart Broke

Chicago, July 2s.--The final chapte,
in the death of Baby Bollinger, whose
life Or. H. J. Haiselden refused to save
in 1918 because Of the child 4 hopeless.
deformity, was written today with this
announcement of the mothers death
due, her husband believes, to a broken
heart
The Bollinger case received addition.
al notoriety only a few days ago when
Baby Meter, similarly imperfect in.
fant, was allowed to die BY Dr. Haisel-
den.
The shock of the infants hopeless
condition at birth, DR.. Haiselden's YER
dict to permit it to die, and the attend
ant notoriety, were more than the
mother could stand, Allen Boilinger,
the woman's husband declared.
FShe was never the same after
ward" he said. t'I was afraid her
mind would give way under the strain
and tried to cheer her but she never
recovered from her grief. II ever d
woman died Of broken heart she
did,,
The Bollinger case became famous
throughout American and European
medical circles. Dr@,Haiselden,s vprs
dict that the child should die became
the subject of hot controversy be-
tween medical men and iaymen. M
The Bollinger infant would have
probably been an imbecile If allowed
to live, according to DR.. Haiselden;
who gave the same reasons for per-
mitting Baby Meter, to die.
In connection with the death of Baby
Meter, DR.. Haiselden said he believed
if it was humane to take the life of
an animal which was hopelessly Grip
pied, it was likewise humane to permit
a hopelessly imperfect infant to pass
into the next world.

At the last meeting Of the Civic

came from Mrs. William Ballinger
and which seems both sane and eco

set out in Towering shrubs instead
of in flowers. Mr.. G. R. Joys lawn
about his residence and ia the little
park which he owns across the street
from his residence, demonstrate what
can be done with Towering shrubs.
There are different varieties which
are beautiful in all seasons. If the
shrubs were carefully selected as Mr..
joys have been, there would be
blossoms from early spring until late
autumn. Since shrubs are hardy, the
city would be saved the expense Of
replanting every year and much
expense for gardeners service.
