CHICAGO, Sept. 11.-There was stub

day The bulk of the trading up to noon

was from ls to ssc higher. Initial sales of
price was 1884 and after 12c reaction it
climbed back to that figure again. So far
as pu bic cables were concerned, they told
of nothing but quiet markets on the other
side at unchanged prices. Private ones
were positively bearish in tone as rule.

These figures arc the final ones until the
government survey of the situation in
January. Another strong feature of the
market to-day was the excellent consump-
tive demand. There were not only several
export orders here but Ohio millers were
buying both spot and futures. Foreign
buying orders for No. 2 red wheat could not
be filled. A liberal business was transacted
between room traders, and there was larger

quiet but steady. Trading in the near de-

was no pressure to sell, but sufficient de-

American Agriculturist. SIS


The early part of September is fAvora-
BILE season for planting new strawberry
beds, and wherever the ground can be. put
in proper condition. it is far better to plant
now than to defer this work until next
spring. If good potted plants can be pro-
cured at reasonable prices, these are prefer
able for the family fruit-garden, as failure
is hardly possible If ordinary care be given
them; but even with ordinary ground lay
ers, there should be but little loss of plants
at this season. When only small bed is
required, the plants may be set out in rows,
rows, but on farms where there is plenty
of ground available, it will be found more
satisfactory to grow strawberries in matted
rows. Under this system the plants are set
in rows four or five feet apart. so that the
principal part of cultivation can be done
with plow and cultivator. The plants
should be twelve inches apart 10 the rows,
and the runners allowed to spread on either
side so that they will form solid beds three
or four feet wide. Although this plan does
not give as large berries as the hill system.
it requires less labor and yields On abun-
dance of berries.

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. IL.
The unusually warm weather for this sea-
son of the year is acting somewhat as q
check upon trade in several departments,
the dry goods and boot and shoe men MOTTO
ing it the most. Grocers are experiencing
a fair trade, the upward tendency to coffees
and sugars attracting attention. and in
some instances quickening sales. The sup
ply of sugars is very low, and orders are
filed slowly. Canned goods are attracting
more attention. Packers talk bullish, es-
pecially as regards peaches Salt fish bid
fair to be high. as the catch of mackerel
thus far has been disappointing The fish
are or better quality, 1t is stated, but fewer
In number than In any season for some
years. The leather market is active, and
the tendency is to higher prices on all
grades. Tho hide market is more active,
and it is believed that in the near future
better prices will be realized, The produce
markets are moderately active. The wealth
er is so warm that the losses are large.
Peaches and pears were both in light sup
ply, to-day. and prices firmer. Some choice
peaches sold at 81 per rone-third, ,bushel box;
prices rule firm and steady.

ing that are not in any other business. The
ruling principle in profitable production is
to produce the best. But fruit growing is,
to degree, an exception to the rule Ii is
not sufficient for the fruit grower to ask
what is the best variety. The best variety
may not be what he wants at all. He
wants the variety that will bring him the
most money. That is the first thing to
think Of Now, the best variety, that is
the fruit that is best in flavor may not do
that 1t may not do as well in his locality;
it may not be good shipper. and he may
live a long distance from market; and last,
a fruit o. the best quality may not be tae

Two series of experiments were begun in

yields of grain crops in a rotation involv

rotated in each series. The presence of
grass and clover in one rotation and their
absence from the other constituted the
essential difference between the two series.
The average yields per acre of all the wheat

are as follows:
