Improvement in the future, except in
parts of the South where unusual ac-
emulation of cotton and its low price
have depressing influence. At the
East there is again distinct, though
moderate improvement in the leading
branches of industry: at the West
trade continues in a volume never APP
preached in any previous year; and
even at the South, in spite of some
embarrassment, the volume of trade is
on the whole large, though not equal
to last years. There is no lack of
money in any part of the country, ex-
cept at some southern points, and the
mere fact that cotton and interior
towns represents fully $50. 100000 in
value paid to planters at once explains
the difficulty, and suggests that it is
not permanent.
1t is good sign, also. that collec-s
tons are, on the whole, improving,
though slow at New Orleans and some
southern points, and only fair in 800
lines at eastern cities. IxSss coun-

If the question were asked how

way to build it is to build it," This
method of developing suburban
property is again being successfully
demonstrated by the i've manner in
which the Capital Homestead Co. is
building up what is known as Slmp-
sons addition. By a judicious and

method it has been possible to Sc

Cape Cod is gradually being eaten up

acres in extent. At the present time
the inclosure embraces hardly six acres.

The draughtsmen in Architect

several days drawing details of plans
and specifications for the Oregon
fruit palace to be erected on the fair
grounds under the direction of the

clation. A colossal sketch of the
palace as it will appear when COM
plete will be ready to be shown at

have estimates of the cost of the
building and expense of decora.
tions. If the plan of the com
mittee is carried out it will take
more than ten tons of fruit, besides
what will go in glass, to make the
showing now designed. The whole
display will be arranged from the
standpoint of artistic effects that
can be achieved by arranging fruits
in masses. The result will be the
greatest surprise to the people of
this county themselves. The CON-
mittee are preparing circular solic-
iting cooperation of all the fruit
growers in the county and also OF
the ladies in assisting in the show Of
canned fruits not now in season.
