clothing grades at 36@40c. Domestic
f1eeces are quiet, but the market is
held steady. medium grades ruling
quite firm. Dealers are firmer in their
views, and bids for many round lots
have been turned down the past week,
as buyers views are too low. Indica-
lions point to a firmer market for
woods. but buyers have no desire to
load up with the raw material until
they know more nearly how much the
lower duty on woolens under the new
tariff will affect the home business with
manufacturers. Territory woods are
generally held firmer, but sales have
not followed. The secured basis for
fine medium and fine is 32@35c. for best
lots, with the range down as to quail
ity. Carpet woods are slow. Western
holders feel that prices of American
woods are relatively too low.

teacupful of water over sharp fire
until it begins to turn yellow, writes

not stir while boiling. Have ready
one-half pound of almonds blanched
and dried. Put them in the oven and
leave the door open; when they begin
to look yellow add to the candy as it
reaches the turning point described
above, and quickly pour into a we'll
oiled tin or iron pan about one-half an
inch thick; mark with a sharp knife
into bars before it cools. BY bending
the tins between the hands slightly
the candy will come out easily.

4 The report of the National Associa-

shows very conclusively that there has
been a steady increase in the averag
weight of feeces throughout the United
States from year To year, but an al
most corresponding increase in Shrink
age, so that the advance in weight has
mot resulted in a corresponding in
crease in the number of pounds of
secured wool. From year to year the
feeces have shown an increase in
shrinkage, until in 1894 the average is
59.7l per cent. The average weight
for this year is g. 395 pounds. while in
1891 il was 50 pounds. This years
production of secured woods was 140,-
292, 1858 pounds. which is the highest
since 1891, when the returns gave 139,-
326, 7G3 pounds. The highest production
of the secured article during the past
nine years was in 1893, when Isl, IO3, 776
pounds were produced, the next high
est being 1886, with 149, 365, 625 pounds
The decrease for 1894 as compared
with the 1898 production, is 1881, sos
pounds. or $40 per cent. During the
past nine years the highest production
of fleece and pulled wool in the grease
was in 1893, being 34S, 53S, 13S pounds
hRnd the lowest in 1889, with 95,779, 479
pounds.
Good reports continue to come from
