SEATTLE, WASH, Sept. IL, 1897
EDITOR IsLANDER:-With your per.
mission I would like to reply through
your excellent paper to the many in
quires that / have from parties in San
Juan county in regard to the Seattle
fruit market.
The market is overstocked in every
department, and the outlook for better
prices in the near future is by no means
f1attering. The best price obtainable
at this date for good cooking apples,
prunes, (all kinds), and plums is one
half cent per pound, and pears are SO
plentiful that they too are selling near
ly as low. All the commission houses
are packed with fruit of all kinds,
much of it SO poor that it has to be
dumped into the bay. The market
quotations in the Seattle daily papers
are very misleading, and have often
in whose Interest they were
made. Prunes can only be sold for
one-half cent per pound in bulk, they
may be shipped in any kind of boxes
and boxes returned at this price. If
any can afford to ship at this price
they can get quick returns, and good
cooking apples sell at the same price.
The evapOrating establishments are
getting all the fruit they can handle at
these prices. Three car loads of prunes
have been shipped to eastern markets,
these have been consigned and so far
no returns have been made, and no
more will be shipped at present. 1t is
said to be favored country that has a
full crop of grain and fruit, but if we
had only half as much fruit as we have
It would bring more money. The fruit

Grass that must be cut late in the
season should be cured with special
care. This is not, in some sections at
least, the common custom. On the
contrary, the work is pushed as rapid
ly as possible, and but little care is
taken as to how it is performed. The
argument in favor of this plan is that,
in any case, the hay will not be worth
a great deal, and, therefore, it will not
paw to spend much time in curing it.
But there is another side to the sub
iect. The hay will not be first-c!ass, 1t
is true, but instead of being valid ex-
cuse for neglect in curing it, this should
be a strong reason for making an effort
to get it in the best possible condition.
The finest grasses can be slightly in
iured, either by getting too ripe or by
exposure to the weather, and still re-
main fairly palatable and nutritious.
But if the grass is already poor any
defect in curing will cause far greater
relative injury than the better grasses
sustain and will reduce the actual val
ue for feeding purposes to a. very low
degree. Farmer.

POLITICAL POINTERS.

Mr.. Bryan is not seeking recreation
among the farmers this summer.
Will these sound money people never
stop harping about wheat and silver p
The calamity walters are corking up
their tear ducts in view of the increased
demand and increased prices for farm
products.
Last year an ounce of fine silver
bought bushel of wheat. 1t takes
two of them this year. That is the
way wheat and silver keep together.
American workIngnen are not emf
grating to Mexico in great numbers
nowadays. The idea of being paid half
wages in dollars worth only 40 cents is
not an attractive one.
The silver orators are finding diff
Guilty in finding people to listen to them
now. The cry 'dollar wheat" knocks
the most elaborate silver argument into
smitAereens in short order.
Is Mr.. Bryan doing anything to
checkmate the perpetratiOn of another
"crime' in Mexico? 1t looks as
| though the "gold power" might be
having designs upon our sister republic.
The cloudy appearance about the
manufacturing towns noticed these
days is not the smoke of battle due to
| the "invasiOn of the enemy's country
which Mr.. Bryan began just year ago.
Those farmers who mentioned IDOL
lar wheat" when Mr.. Bryan tried to
talk silver to them should have had
more regard forthe feelings of the SEN
sitive young orator from the banks OF
the Platte.
Mr.. Bryan's 81 500 (gold basis) speech
for Ohio has been drafted in the rough.
It may be necessary, before it is deliv-
cred, to make some slight changes with
regard to a further decrease in the
price of silver and a few other little
things of that sort.
tits an awful thing to see the gold
power of Europe grinding under Its
heels the farmers of our country. The
latest evidence is the importation into
San Francisco of G45O, 900 of British gold
| from Australia, which the American
farmers will be forced to take for their
surplus wheat.
"Blessed is the country whose sol.
diers fight for it and are willing to give
the best they have, the best that any
man has, their own lives, to preserve
it, because they love it. Such an army
the United States has always com.
manded in all her history."- president
Mckinley at Buffalo.
The food supply of Europe is now
estimated to be 1925, 100000 bushels
short of the normal demand. This
shortage is divided as follows: Wheat
900, OO0. 900 bushels; rye, 325, 900 90 bush
els; potatoes, 1000, 0OO, 600 bushels
This means Cuisines" for the Amer
can farmer, and business for the calam
ity shriekers.
