FIN ANCIAL and COMMERCIAL

Business in all branches has been moderately
active during the week. The receipts of grain
continue liberal
In money matters there is little change to
note. The supply of loanable funds is little
greater, but the demand increases fully as fast
rs the supply, and consequently the market
rules rather close.
In Chicago the market is reported about the
same as last week. Money is growing little
easier, and the prospects for an easier market
seem good on the opening of vigation.
Gold has been firm during the week, and the
price has advanced some At the government
sale of gold the bids aggregated over $4,000
900, and the Secretary sold 81 100000 at 11453
to 11471. The market closed firm at 114150

have ruled steady and strong during the week,

WHO WILL Try IT?-Parties who have
had experience in the cultivation of the
cranberry say there are portions OF the
valleys around Phoebe well adapted to
raising them-especially of Spring and
Rose Valleys. Cranberries are the most
valuable of the small fruits, there being a
cash market for them the world over, and
we would suggest that some Of our cult
vators who have land in favorable condi-
ton for the purpose undertake their pro-
duction. They would get rich returns for
their enterprise, if successful.
