ventories taken, &c., and most care
full merchants, no doubt, calculated
their profits and losses.
The merchant who properly adver-
tised his goods and wares during the
year found his balance on the right
side, while the dealer who did bust
ness after the manner of his ances-
tors, was lucky if he made both ends
meet.
Some merchants take advantage
of their opportunities; others seem
satisfied to merely exist.
It has been we'll said, the lesson OF
the hour is never to be learned by
some men. They live, and pass away,
and do not make a ripple in the
stream of life; but others who observe
the ebbing and flowing of the tide OF
fortune bring their banks safely to
mort. laden with the reward of tact
and skill
During the ''busy seasons" the
names Of many of the more prosner-

the Salem avenue and a negro jump

wEsTERN CATTLE REPORTS.

The General Western Condition Good
Soms Shortages Of Pasture.
The following appeared in the Chicago
Fdrmers' Reriew: The reports of crop
correspondents relating to fall pasturage
show that with the exception Of q few
counties the pastures ore good in Ohio,
Missouri and Kentucky. In Dakota, Kan
sas and Michigan the pasturage is good.
In Illinois. Wisconsin and Minnesota,
with but few EXCEPTIONS, fall feed is short
and pasturage dry. It will thus be seen
that farmers outside of Ohio, Missouri and
Kansas have a serious question to meet,
how to provide feed and water for their
cattle and fit them for market. Until now
pasturage has been abundant. Cattle do
not as yet show the effect of shortage, save
in q few scattering counties, noticeable in
Michigan and Wisconsin. Where cattle
are fit for the market and feed is short
they are being sold OF as rapidly rs rossi-
bic, but farmers hesitate to put animals not
yet ready for the block u upon q low
market. where competition is keen. 1t is
probable. however, that if the shortage of
feed and water continues many will sell at
q loss.
