The variance be tween prices for near by delivery nml con tract Is wide and bu more than ordinary pi ... ,. _ contracts. Both knitting nml weaving yarns nre weak and no attempt on the part of sell ers to force sales Is being made, ns this would only complicate matters. The market on staple cottons Is easier for the buyer and orders on sheetings, drills, denims nml nsnahurga for forwnrd delivery nre being placed with Southern mills to some extent. rrlnt>rs nre reported ns tnkhig regulars ns they come_along‘for near by nud forward delivery, find there Is no apparent weak ness on narrow goods below the revised prices.

Some of the largo silk Importing houses declare that they have a larger business In hand for spring delivery than they have handled In several seasons.

On forward contract white goods houses and embroidery houses nro booking orders for fall of 1908, nt prices which show no decline from those ruling for the present season.

When he has done so of Inte these are the questions which confront him the most persistently: How much gold can a farmer buy with his oats as compared with a few years ago? Nearly twice a* much. How much with corn? Nearly twice as much. How much with barley? Over twice ns much. Now how much gold will his wheat buy as compared with those other years? No more. Wheat almost every year sells not so very fnr front 31. Now, then, and this Is the point In question. If be can get * * b as much for everything but wheat, long Is he going to continue seeding the latter? And If he has any wheat In his hins, will he, do you think, rush It to market nt such u tremendous discount un der everything else on his farm from eggs to horses? The present-day farmer spends his gunny hours as of yore making bay, but he puts lu his evenings comparing notes with his fellows over tne telephone.*' No precedent enn be found In existing rec ord* for tlie Inrge decrease shown during September In. the visible supply of wheat. There was a decrease lust month of 5.709.000 bushels. The only September* In the last twenty yenrs which snowed any aort of a decrease were In 1896. when there was the faint decrease. 192.000 bushels, nnd In 1906. when there was nu even fainter decrease of only 1,000 bushels. It Is also necessary to go hock to 1895 to find nu October that showed n derrease, supplies that month tailing off 658,000 bushels. Increases during September since l«rw; have ranged from practically 10,000,000 bushels In 1901 to 3.300.- 000 bushels In 1906. The decreases shown In 1896 and 1896 followed an era of low prices, following tho panic of 1893. when prices of contract No. 2 cash wheat In Chi cago ranged from 48%eiff88c, the low point being lu January of 1896 nnd the high In April of 1893. The range for 1896 was from 63c In August to 94%c In November. Decreased receipt* are promised soon In •most of the wheat territory tributary to Minneapolis. Farmers nre busy plowing, previous to the freeze-up. and are letting rhelr thrashing go unfit later. Not over half of the thrashing hns been completed lu the Red Hirer valley. Duluth Is paying a big premium for cash wheat lu order to attract supplies for shipment East, nud Is gettlug more than her regular proportion of tin* dally arrivals.
