MONDAY. AUGUST s. 1921.

Astrologers read this as a very
uncertain day. Neptune and the Sun
are in benefic aspect early in the
morning but Uranus has evil pow er
later.
Initiative Of every sort is sup
posed to be stimulated by tins rule
OF the stars, but while the desire
for achievement may be strong,
Judgment may not be trustworthy.
All who seek support or aid from
persons in positions of authority
should be successful. II they make
the appeal before noon.
Appointments made today should
be fortunate. but there is danger
that criticism will center on those
who attain any sort of office.
Uranus is again in an aspect be-
lieved to encourage intrigue and
treachery
The evil sway that affects the
subconscious mind is held to make
both men and women untruthful.
but women will be more susceptible.
Warning Is given against schemes
that will be promoted by women
who will be too sanguine in their
views to attain success.
One OF the signs of the times will
be the vaulting financial ambitions
of women. who will undertake reck.
less financial ventures.
Again treachery on the part Of a
foreign power is foretold by the
seers.
Fires and accidents will mark the
end of this month and the early
part of September. Protection for
forests should be adequate.
South African trade will attract
Americans. who should beware Of
commercial complications.
Mars is in an aspect that will
disturb Rumania as we'll as France
and Italy.
Persons whose birthdate 1t is
have the augury of a fortunate
year. Business should prosper
greatly unless the temptation to en-
joy pleasure and company prove too
alluring.
Children born on this day are
likely to be exceedingly gifted. They
should have common sense as we'll
as talent and will rise rapidly in
any vocation they choose.

PAYS by Indireeion.

M AYBE our merchant marine may be worth
Vl all it costs. There has been recent
example of its cash value. All Egyptian cotton
was allocated to British ships. To get a share
of this, American operators, acting through the
Shipping Board, cut the rate. The British re-
piled with cut in rates and insurance which
shaded the American combined rates. By the use
of shirt-sleeve diplomacy the British have now
allotted half of what comes here to American
ships.
But the real result is that all OF this cotton
will be moved at a very much lower transporta-
ton cost, than would have been charged had the
United States had no ships. This saving is to
our cotton spnners and manufacturers, and to all
others. 1t will reflect in the domestic product
and in imports. 1t may reach the con-
sumer, but will help revive the industry 1t will
help in the total.
Also, what has happened in this instance will
be multiplied. There is little room for doubt that
all ocean carrying will be at much lower rate
than if had no ships a negligible number.
as before the 1t would be but human nature,
and not matter for censure for the foreign ship
owners to have combined and milked the COW

may cost, it is probably worth it, which is not,

The M arket

Sea trout are about off the
market and, will not be seen in
any great quantity for the next
four years. This fish has pecul-
lar habit of running on odd years,
the second odd year being Its
heaviest Srup. This year the run
was particularly large and the
quality fine, giving satisfaction to
every housewife.
Chinook salmon has dropped In
price to Is cents a pound which
will be the general price tomor-
row. Silversides are quoted at the
same price and are fully as good
in quality. There is some uncer-
tainty as to whether any great
amount Of cod will be on the mar
ket, though other sea foods will
be in good supply.
A peculiar situation exists in
the poultry market. Portland pric-
es are much lower than quoted
here, yet the market there is
over crowded while local retail
ers are wondering where their
Saturdays supply is coming from.
The farmer cannot be blamed for
his hesitancy about bringing his
chickens in at the price offered.
There may be some prices offer
ed which have not reached pub
lication in order to assure each
dealer his supply at the end Of
this week.
If local cantaloupe growers
would take the time to sort and
grade their melons in some sort
of manner instead of heaping
them in a box regardless Of any
thing but getting the box filled,
a higher price could be obtained
from local merchants and COM
mission houses. Retail prices on
local melons are very reasonable,
but are quoted according to size.
Those from California and Yak
ina are too high priced.
