THE PRICE PROSPECTS.

The prospect for further advance in
wheat is not 50 plainly in sight as many
would like to believe. While foreigners
get all the wheat and -four they need,
without accepting what they are pleased
to call our extravagant pretensions, there
will necessarily be hesitation on their
part about encouraging our enthusiastic
ambitions. While -four milling in the
Northwest Is pushed beyond the usual
at this season, the direct exports from the
West are smaller. For some time we
have exceeded the usual production and a
larger proportion has to be turned to do
nestle distribution or to accumulation.
1t has accumulated. Yet this is for
time so short it has occasioned no hard
ship and week of good buying would
ton that may we'll be regarded in es-
ting the immediate prospect of a
further rise at this time in the prices of
wheat. In the light of the past, SOC in the
West is not high but it is an important
advance above late prices and 1t might
be we'll for dealers to hesitate before ex-
pecting Csc further rise. The winter
wheat crop is short-not more than two
thirds crop perhaps but the spring
wheat prospect is very promising. Still
a good outlook for spring wheat does
not offset a poor prospect for winter for
acreage of winter is about twice as much.
Again the visible is falling fast. before
the old crop is exhausted, and when the
out of sight in the great winter wheat
do we'll to reflect little. however, before
building too high hopes of further great
advances until new causes support them.

THE POOR SWALLOW.

This is a story Of a curious mishap
which befel a swallow near Cold Spring,
N. Y: w. L. Calver was standing in a
barnyard at that place. 1t was q blus-
terry day, and the weather-vane on the
barn was kept in constant motion by the
shifting wind. Mr. Calver looked at the
vane. He had looked at it 20 times be-
fore during the day, but this time 1t was
different. Evidently bird had perched
upon it. Mr.. Calver thought it the most
unstable perch possible. But the bird re-
manned there all day.
Towards evening the boys on the farm
tried to dislodge the bird by throwing
stones at 1t. 1t did not go away. Next
day it was still there, and then an inves-
tigation was made. One of the boys
climbed out of the cupola window and,
looking up found the bird was a swal-
low; that, far from being perched on the
vane. it was irnpaled. The zane struck
right through the birds breast. The
swallow was, of course, dead. It's posi-
ton made reaching it an impossibility.
so it had to be left where it was. At
last only the skeleton was left. Finally
even that fell to pieces. It Is thought
that in one of the sudden downward
swoops which swallows make in flight
the bird did not see the rapidly shifting
vane,a and that the latter veered around
Just In time to impale the swallow
through the breast.

HOW TO KEEP LEMONS FRESH

It is not generally known that lemons
may be easily and almost indefinitely pre-
served under glass. Some, one year, were
purchased on the Fourth of July, and, by
way Of experiment, each one was put und-
er an inverted goblet. Thus kept from the
air. they were finally removed, on Christ
mas day, in perfect condition, and as
juicy as ever.

10c from the top and we have declined &C..
This Is a good break, considering the con-

while II may decline some more, still
wheat ought to be purchased on every

WHAT was evidently an intended
''holdup" on the Rock Island last
Thursday evening, failed through a
mistake of the lnstigators Of the
scheme. Shortly after 10 o'clock in
the evening when freight train No. SO
was midway between Mshaska and
Thompson it was brougot to a halt by
danger signals from red lanterns.
The signals were given by three un-
known men who disappeared into the
woods as soon as the train stopped.
An investigation failed to reveal any
defects in the track, and the train con-
tinued its run to this place unmolested.
Engineer Carter was at the throttle
and Conductor Winecoop had charge
of the train. The only PLAUSIBLE ex-
PLANTATION of the affair is that il was
the intlntion to rob the express train
which was due at that place about a
half haur later, but when they dis
covered they had tagged freight
train instead they abandoned the job.
No clew to their identity was left be-
hind.-Fair6try Gazette.
