Groceries.

The general drift Of trade is toward higher
level of prices Syrups, canned fruits and
dried fruits and rice are all moving upward.
Coffee and teas are also tending the same
direction. The only weak factor Of staple gro
ceries is sugar. which is quiet at the late de-
cline. All iobbers report unusual midsummer
activity. Volume of trade for July was larger
than the corresponding period of last year, and
outlook for fall business was never better.
