The Drew Steam Mill r...
Which has been idle for so long time, is
soon to be refitted by Boston company
and made into an extensive merchant flour
ing mill. This will be q valuable addition
to the bushes Of Red Wing and supply a
want all feel to exist. The mill is admit
rably adabted to the business designed. We
wish the most complete success to the en-
terprise.
An Effort
Is making to induce the Post Office De-
partment to give the mails to the Davidson
line Of steamboats,. A petition to that effect
has been extensively signed by the citizens
Of this place, and we believe by those Of ev.
cry point on the river. If the application
thus unanimously urged receives the appro.
baton Of the Department, Dayidson's line
may he regarded US one Of the institutions o
the upper Mississippi.
Wheat Warehouses.
The vast quantity Of grain likely to b.
marketed in Red Wing this fall is inducing
the erection Of very many grain store house,;
Nearly every merchant is preparing to bu,
and store grain. TIE competition will b,
great and the very highest prices be naid
Our farmers shonld keeI, this fact ia mind
when thoy market their crops, that Rec
Wing is the place to sell. g-. : "-s-

The Grain Trade. 4.E.".. "
Wheat has commenced to come in in con
siderable quantities. The price paid ayera
|ges IS cents, some nice lots bringing tiv,
cents more, and some, not so we'll cleaned =;
tritle less. The quality is most excellent
The prospects for good prices is most en-
courasing, and the confidence Of buyers vcr,
great. The expectation Of a foreign demand
however gives speculative character to tn,
present demand, and the chances for an ad
vance or decline in prices are about equal
Nothing will be lost by selling early an,
We incline toEthe opinion.that those who sci
promptly will realize most. .

The Competition a. r.. ..aa-:--.:.lI
Between the different lines Of boats O,
the river is having most salutary tenden
cy in reducing the tariff on freight an,
passengers: and will no doubt stimulat
the business men to unusual activity. Til
competition, while it proves advantag
eous to the business men and farmers, vii
prove equally profitable to the steamboat
engaged in this trade. The expense {
running y boat is nearly the same with
little business as when the business is large
With the heavy business to be done, all GU
boats will certainly make profit.
