 Tacoma and Seattle lumber and wheat export interests continue active: a large number of manufacturing indus tries have started up and the outlook Is such that available vessel room has been engaged for months in advance, and freight rates continue upward.
 Corn prices sympathize with wheat quotations, and the only other promi- nent products, prices for which are low er gre apples and cottonseed oil. The firm and practically unchanged prices for lard, coffee, sugar, petroleum and copper indicate the strength of the gen. eral market, while advances are re- ported for wheat flour and oats, for butter, cheese and eggs and for canned vegetables and dried fruits among food products; for wool, leather, print cloths and for pig tin and crude petroleum.
 Interest in iron and steel products lags, but prices are firm, buyers evil
 dently preferrlng to pay more after November 3 than to order now. It is noteworthy that while higher prices af-
 ter election are not predicted in all
 lines, lower prices are not anticipated for any staple.
 Total exports of wheat (f1our includ-
 ed as wheat) from both coasts of the United States and from Montreal this
 week, are not quite as large as for four
 preceding weeks, but are heavier than in corresponding weeks in three preced- ing years, amounting to 3,S23,0 900 bush
 els as compared with 2,65S,000 bushels in the corresponding week one year ago, 3,353, ,000 bushels two years ago and 9,327 000 bushels three years ago. Ex- ports of Indian corn continue heavy,
 amounting to 2,878,000 bushels for the
 week, 50 per cent. more than last week, more than twice as much as year ago
 and thirty times as much as in the cor
 responding week of 1894
 Total bank clearings in the United States amount to S1, ,047, ,000 900 this week about per cent. more than last week but 10 per cent. less than in the third week of October, 1895.
 There are 292 business failures report ed throughout the United States, this week. which is thirty-three more than in the corresponding week last year. General trade at Toronto is fairly sat isfactory, and the outlook is for inn provement Demand for winter fabrics Is active, as is that for staples from Manitoba and British Columbia. The | export movement of grain and apples from Montreal is active. Manufactur- | CTS Of wool and clothing at that city
 have agreed to shorten credits one | month on sales for spring and fall de-
 livery, 1897. There is considerable ac- ! tivity in lumber shipments from New Brunswick, where the prospect is for a i large lumber cut.

FRUIT FOR THE FAMILY.
How to Have a Fair Variety All the Year
Around.

How to Have - Fair Variety All the Year
Around.
The question is often asked: "What
shall l plant in order to obtain u full
supply of fresh fruit for q family the
year round?" 1t is difficult to give
precise list, as in some seasons the crop
may be many times greater than in
others; and again, some will bear abun-
dantly and others fail in the same sea
son. The following, however, will
serve as an approximation:
The earliest fruits, about the first
of summer, will be the strawberries.
A selection of the most productive
sorts, well cultivated, with the runners
kept cut off, will afford about one quart
q day from each square rod for month.
Three or four square rods will, there
fore, give an abundant supply for
family. Four or five hundred plants
will be sufficient for this extent Of
ground. These will be followed by the
earliest cherries, and by currants, rasp-
berries and gOoseberries. Two dozen
bushes of each of the four best sorts o!
currants, the same number of raspber-
ries and two dozen of gooseberry will.
if we'll cultivated, furnish an abundant
supply. One dozen cherry trees will be
enough. Two or three dozen bushes OF
the blackberry will supply quart
day for some weeks toward the close OF
summer. Apricots, early apples and
early pears, and a few of the earliest
plums, will commence the season OF
abundance which, with the later varie.
ties of these fruits, will last till near
winter. Winter apples and pears, and
all the good keeping varieties Of the
grape, will continue the supply until
spring. Long-keeping apples, if placed
in a good, cool fruit-room or cellar, will
continue until the commencement OF
the new supply of Gtrawberries.-

Is perfectly organized republic, indie

Reserve, and is the home of about 1000
of the Cherokee Indians belonging to
the eastern branch. The reserve has an
area of $4,000 acres, or eighty-two square
miles, Of the richest valley land of the
State, lying along the Ocona, Lufta and
Soco creeks. The President of the little
republic is elected every four years. He
receives a salary of $500 year, but when
at Washington on business for the re-
public he gets S4 day extra. He is
called chief, but none but a Cherokee of
more than 35years is eligible to the chief
tainship. When he is absent his duties
are performed by an assistant chief,
whose salary is $3.50 year. The chief
has Cabinet of three Secretaries, and
the Congress comprises two delegates
from every 100 members Of the tribe.
The Cherokee males OF 16, and all white
men who have Indian wives, have the
right to vote. The constitution provides
for the maintenance Of a public school,
in which both English and Cherokee are
