FROST KEEP FUEL ON HAND.-On Friday
morning last there was slight frost here, and
on Saturday morning quile considerable
frost, which destr' yed The early vegetables,
and some of the early fruits. The next day,
Sunday, there was marked change, and the
weather became warm, and on Monday it was
still warmer, and has so remained 10 this
time.
Those who acted upon the advice we gave
them several weeks since 10 provide them
selves with fuel acted wisely, for 1t has been
needed nearly every day since till few days
ago.
AS that advice was good, we repeat it. When
you conclude that the season is SO far advanced
that you will not NEED any more fuel, order
another load, and you will not have cause TO
regret it, for it is better to have fuel on hand
when you don't need it, than to be without
any when you do. No household should be
without fuel at any time of the year.

STAUNToN. VA, May 7th, 1889.
The Centennial week was dull one In
produce and the provision trade in tho East
ern markets as il was without more than ordi-
nary activity throughout the whole country.
Last week in the general commercial and
crop-report department of the SPECTATOR, we
made full compilation of those interests as
they were calculated to effect our local bust
ness in staple produce and provisions. The
situation IN those respects remains unchanged
except that the additional time increases the
good prospects of the growing crops and de-
veloped slightly improved market In The ex-
port of breadstuhs, without an advance ON the
other side of the Atlantic.
We note another slight decline for wheat in
our own market. But little is offered now
The highest quotations to-day were 90 cents.
All produce trade was dull to-day.
The new clip of wool has commenced to come
n, in small quantities, and is quoted at % to Is
cents per pound.
In the seaboard wool markets prices are un
changed. Bradstreefs has a lengthy review of
the markets both Of this country and OF
Europe. There is buoyancy at the West where
he new clip is ruling feature. Dealers in
Boston. New York and Philadelphia, antici

buyers and sellers during the next three

the view of higher prices. Completion is re

The trusts were not so active, and little strength
