Portland Wholesale Market.

FOR THE WEEK ENDING Mich. 1.
The business situation has developed some
new features during the week. Nearly all the
leading food products have been in buyers IA
vOr. The steady decline in Wheat has had a
depressing effect on Flour, the recent advance
has entirely disappeared and extremely low
prices again prevail, with only moderate in
quiry for groceries generally. The movement
in dry fish is very satisfactory with decided
increase in the volume of business; the demand
for some time has been for medium Goldfish the
SUI ply of such being quite small for this season
of The year and prices are firmer, while large
Goldfish are less active without material change
in values. Mackerel command full figures aud
steady; the stock is small and will all be want
ed before any new fish arrives, The fresh beef
market is firm with prices tending upward sides
613@81ac P ib, kinds at S1a@111ac, fores at
51a@6c, rounds and TANKS at TIA csc, rumps
and loins 1o915c, backs at 697c rattles 41ac,
sheep 10c, lambs lie. Dressed hogs steady at
1O1a 41lc Pfb. The Coffee market is strong
the stock at Rio is 2O8, 900 bags compared with
10000 bags at the corresponding period last
year; at Santos stocks at latest dates were
233, 900 bags compared with $4,000 bags in
1892; the receipts of Coffee on the crop to Feb.
% are 2,2o7 900 bags against 2,724,ooo bags
in 1892, and 1,759,Ooo bags in 1891, the New
York visible supply was last reported as 4S2,-
$50 bags compared with 1872 1856 bags in 1892
and 27o.275 bags in 1891. Sugar quiet and
steady. There has been big drop in Eggs I'M
der the influence of heavy receipts and falling
off in the demand; the market is demoraiized
ana strictly fresh stock will not command much
over 1Sc dozen in jobbing way. Potatoes
firm, ranging from s5c@1 o5, latter for fancy.

holy city of the Jews 1t is a species
of sunfower, and gets its name from
spirasole," one of the scientific names
Of that genus of plants. The word
"pen" means a feather and is from the
Latin "penna," wing. Surely the
expression "a steel PEN could be i'm
proved upon. Galvanized iron is not
galvanized at all, but is coated with
Zinc by being plunged into a bath OF

1t seems wonderful that things so
fragile, SO minute, and so easily de-
strOyed as mere insects should have
been preserved in rocks for millions
upon Millions of wears in such perfection
that the yerr nairs which fringe the
wings of certain very small varieties
are visible to-day beneath the lenses
of the microscope. Embedded in the
scraps of stone which make up the col
lection referred to are seen the fossil
lied forms Of all the principal species
that fly and crawl at the present time,
says the Great DHide. In this shape
are found the entombed remains of an
ancient host, so varied in structure
and so closely resembling their de-
scendants of this century that they
may be said 10 include practically ev-
cry group in the range of the insect
world as il Is now known. TO the
Imagination they repopuate the past
with buzzing swarms, aiIOrding evil
dence by their variety and the sur
prising numbers in which their rem
nants are found of the fact that an
GENTLY all sorts Of bugs, obnoxious
and otherwise, were vastly more
plentiful than now. In fact, there
were numerous kinds in the early days
of creation which have since vanished
from earth.
This was so even so late, compar-
atiyely speaking, as few hundred
thousand years ago. during what was
called the tertiary epoch. At that
period there was shallow lake in
little Colorado valley near Pixies peak,
which is overlooked BY mountain
known modernly as Topaz Butte,
though designated by early miners as
Slim jim Streams into which insects
fell carried them to the lake, which
has since vanished. They were buried
beneath layers Of volcanic sand and
ash, which fell into the lake from some
ueighboriug eruption, being thus pre-
served so that now biologists dig out
their fossils with pick-aX and hammer.
One little hill. which was formerly an
island bearing TO this day the erect
trunks of giant petriied sequoia trees,
has been found mine Of these bugs of
antiquity.
