TRADE FOR THE PAST WEEK..
Improvement in Some
Which Is Offset in Other.


New York special: r. G.. Dun's
Weekly Trade Review will say:
Business is still waiting for the de-
velopment of the retail trade. There
is a little better demand in some in-
dustries. but not so good in others.
Wholesale dealers in nearly all
branches are hating because business
GOES not yet show distinctly what 1t Is
to be. Lower prices for the great
farm staples and lower wages III some
establishments hinder purchases Tor
consumption. while political interest
and uncertainty is also Il retarding in
~tluence.
The Government crop reports are
not greatly trusted, but yet have an
influence, and actually e~Xaggeratc the
tendency toward lower prices because
theY are supposed to report all crops
toolow. Men calmly reckon that y
TIN, Government report indicates over
~ .000, 600 bushels of wheat, the crop
ST be over 800. coo. 900, and though
I stern receipts for the week were
only +,469,07j bushels, against 6,@33,-
3O2 last year, and Atlantic exports
CA, 244 bushels, against 9C0.564 last
year, the price is slightly lower. Corn
is stronger. for receipt, We're hardly
a quarter and exports barely an
eighth OF last years, and it is ques-
toned whether the yield may not even
prove lower than has been supposed.

MANY MORE BODIES FOUND.
AS More Thorough Inspection Is
Made the Death Roll GrOWS.


st. Cloud. Mimi. special: Frank
Drew. Il pine cruiscrof Crookston, has
returned from IIinckley. where he has
been for the past two weeks in con-
slant search through the woods and
burned country for the body Of Will
lam Murray. his brother-in-law, who
persisted in the recent forest fires.
The scarchers found three bodies. and
one OF them was recognized by Il ring
on n baked finger as that of
Murray. The ether two are those of
two men named Evans and White.
who were employed as cruisers in the
pincrieS. During the search for MUIR
lays body the almost undistinguIsh-
able remains OF thirteen victims we're
found.
The opinion Of these men and others
who we're with them is, that as the
search iSmadc more carefully through
out the burned district. for one pur-
pose or another. additional bodies will
be found. 1t appears, too, that many
may never be seen, the intense heat
having fairly dissolved the bodies into
gases, leaving only the whitancd
ashes of the bones. which can hardly
be distinguished from the burned soil.

Feeding Values OF HAYS.

To determine the comparative feeding
value of timothy, lucern and wild hay
the Utah experiment station made test
cases with both steers and sheep. Con-
illusions drawn from these two expert
ments make it seem that (D cattle do
better on lucern hay, pound for pound,
than either timothy or wild hay; (2)
that wild hay, pound for pound, lis
more valuable than timothy. (3) Lu-
Germ hay is more valuable for sheep
than timothy hay. (4 Pound for pound,
wild hay is more valuable for sheep
than timothy hay. (5) In both expert
ments it appears that the appetites Of
the animals were not good, and that in
former experiments the best results were
only obtained where exercise was given
regularly and Systematically, and that
trustworthy experiments cannot be made
where the appetite is not good and the
feed not appetizing. These experiments
confirm the opinion that exercise is in
dispensable in obtaining proper growth

Eet 1t BE Done Early-Favorable Report
of the Steam Husker.
Thousands of western farmers could
profit by needing the advice of eastern
cultivators to get the corn husked early,
and yet in many instances, no doubt, to
hurry too much in the matter would
prove Improbable. John M. Stahl, a
progressive Illinois farmer, in COM
munication to Country Gentleman, says:
As compared with the eastern states,
our labor is dear and our corn very
cheap. One can better afford to waste a
little corn than incur any decided addi-
tional expense for labor. Yet recon-
mendation to push the work faster than
Is the common practice is most excel
lent. To leave corn standing in the field
during the winter Is unnecessarily
wasteful. 1t is disgracefully wasteful.
And to leave corn in the field, even in
Illinois or Iowa, until after the holidays
Is inexcusable, except in rare cases.
like to have the standing corn all husk-
ed by Dec. l.
If corn is husked before Dec. /, the
ear is very little damaged. On quite wet
land, or if the fall is unusually wet, the
ears that, because of the blowing down
Of the stalks, lie on the ground may be
somewhat damaged, but these rarely ex
ceed per cent of the corn, and the
damage will not equal per cent. The
great loss is of the fodder. The stalks
cannot be pastured until the ears are
husked, and even till Dec. / the best
part of the fodder is lost. Half of the
blades are blown of by the wind or
whipped OF by the rain and are lost alto
gether. Those that remain and the outer
husks are washed and bleached. The
loss of feed through the failure to save
corn fodder is enormous, and as long as
It continues the farmers guilty Of it can
not complain Of hard times with good
grace.
It Is best to hire huskers by the bush

Everything Points to a Great
Republican Victory.
From All Over the Land Comes
Reports of Increased Re-
publican MajOrlties.

beautiful though the wind blew
cold from the south. Politicians
were early astir and the general
activity of the morning indicated
that good vote would be polled.
A clear, bright forenoon encour-
aged the republicans to believe
that it meant victory. Yet, in
fact, all parties were sanguine un-
til the heavens became clouded
over about the noon hour and the
afternoon became lowering and
gloomy.
Up to noon over one half of the
vote of the city had been polled
indicating that all were impressed
with the idea that a big vote would
be cast and that it was necessary
to 'get there early and often.
The battle was hard fought all
over the county and the exact re-
suits can not be determined for
several days, though enough re-
turns are in to show that most of
the Republican ticket is elected
by safe majorities.
All precincts have been heard
from and the official count cannot
change the result materially. The
tabulated statement on the last
page gives the complete returns SO
far as they have been brought in
and will be found to be nearly cor
rect.
The latest report from the state
show an increased republican ma
jority.
Rsdfield, the home of Howe, the
populist candidate, gives the re-
publican ticket a handsome repub-
lican majority.
Clark county wheels into line
and with Beadle and several other
counties gives the pops a black
eye.
The city of Flandrau and sew
eral precincts in Moody county
show an increased republican vote.
A telegram from Sioux Falls
states that everything on the re-
publican ticket had been elected
from top to bottom in Minnehaha
county.
New York is reported to have
given the republican ticket 1O5, 900
over Hill.
Pennsylvania shows an increase
over the last republican vote cast
of over 10000.
Wisconsin gives Upham (rsp) |

HcmrDrrY AND TEMPERATURES.


The article ia THE OASIS a couple
Of weeks ago asserting that the same
degree Of cold in the temperature had
not done as much damage in Southern
Arizona as i'm Southern California. aud
the reason ascribed have been widely
noted and commented on. That the
theory set forth in the recent article
is true there is no doubt; and in noting
temperature the present white: THE
OASIS editor has had forced upon his
mind a conclusion that in the dry eli
mate OF Southern Arizona the freezing
point is several degrees below the point
always stated and accepted from eX-
periments and observations in more
humid atmospheres-yiz: thirty-two
degrees above zero.
THE OASIS issupplied with two test
ed, self registering, thermometers
one maximum, and one minimum.
These are the regular Instruments sup
piled observers by the Weather Bureau
at Washington, and were tested by ex-
perts in the employ of the bureau at
the national capital, in August and
October respectively. They are ex-
posed on the north side of the house
and just below them few feet away
is ain open ola partly filed with water
On the west side of the house is an
open. metal bucket which is likewise
generally partly filled with water.
Now repeatedly, during the past
month. has the thermometer register
ed a temperature below the freezing
point: but in no instance has ice form
ed on the water in either vessel until
the thermometer had registered de-
gree Of cold lower than twenty-seven
degrees above zero or more than five
degrees lower than the established
freezing point. Such was the case at
daylight Thursday morning Of last
week. when the thermometers register
ed 26.9l degrees above zero, and there
was not a vestige of ice on the water
10 either receptacle. To make sure Of
the fact both Instruments were set. p
and they verified each other
Upon every occasion in which the
instruments have registered below
thirty-two degrees above zero has the
fact here stated been noted: that ice
has not appeared on the water until
the register was close to twenty six
degrees above zero: and consequently
the Inference is that owing TO the arid
ity Of the atmosphere, the freezing
point here is considerably lower than
normal. and that the lowest temper
allure registered-l9b degrees above
zero, lis but about seven degrees be-
low the actual freezing ppint.
