small growers are improvlslng
means for evaporating their own
products where there are no large
evaporating plants to take them.
The outlook is good for better
prices for the evaporated products
than last year, and many questions
are asked regarding the process and
methods in practice at the large
commercial plants, particularly as
regards the lye-dipping process, and
the objects attained by it.
The object of lye-dipping is pri-
marily to hasten the evaporation.
When the work is done we'll the
skins present finely checked ap-
pearance favorable to rapid and
even drying, and it renders 1t less
tough. For those who desire a
finely wrinkled skin of bright
amber color, lye-dipping gives the
prunes better appearance. The
fruit is better cleansed, rs after the
lye- dipping it is necessary to I'M
merse, or rinse the I've solution of
with clean water.
The quantity of I've used varies
with different operators. One pounc
concentrated I've to 10 gallons o
water is about fair average. Th'
proportions vary from one pound o
| concentrated I've to 10 to SO gallons
of water. as does also the strength
of the various brands of concen
trated I've, and the time of allowing
the prunes to remain in the ly'
solution.
It clearly requires an experienced
man to do the work, as it should b,
done. that is to realize all the ben
efits which may be attained by i
and none of the injuries
In evaporators of from one to fiv'
tons capacity it is usual to keep tn
solution boiling in large kettle, in
to which the prunes, placed in
wire basket, or perforated meta
vessel, are immersed, and these KEEP
in motion by twirling or swinging
for from 80 to 60 seconds, depend
ing on the condition Of the fruit
after which they are dipped in
large tub of clean water to rinse OF
the lye. The injuries from over 0
under dipping or immersion in tn
boiling I've solution, are found il
the uneven drying of the fruit, anC
general unmanageableness of it OF
the travs in the evaporation.
There are some who advocate tn
pricking system, which has its ad
vocates claiming advantages owe
that of dipping in lye, No doubt i
has its advantages, and tits clearl.
simpler process and less expensive
in labor and material.
The disadvantages in I've dipping
lie chiefly in the abuse which ma,
by made of it, scrupulous car
should be used in all matters TO

The County Valuation.

COnpleLcu lIS CllIcc Nccho o0oolOil
on Saturday evening, Changes in
the tax roll as made by the assessor
totalize in reduction of $1O5.198.
Almost all of this reduction is &C
complished by cutting the valua-
ton of real property in Pullman
from $361,S54 to $271,3 800. Pull
mans citizens had asked for re-
duction from the assessors valua-
ton of 333 per cent. On Saturday
the board concluded that the re-
duction asked for was too great and
a reduction was ordered on the basis
of 25 per cent. The reduction on
farm realty totaized at 1886, and
on personal property $3.50. Val
uations in the town of Palouse were
reduced 1898, while those in Staley
secured reduction Of 81 900. The
only increase in the assessors val
uations was on lot owned by II.
S. Hollingwerth in Colfax, of $50.
Taking the footings made on the
roll by the assessor as accurate,
which they are not, and the assessed
valuation of all the property Of the
county was $11,7O3,065, and the
valuation for assessment purposes,
after the board of equalization COM
pleted its labors is $11, 5O7 ,S67.
The board on Saturday consid-
cred the petition Of the Colfax citi-
zens. who asked for a 40 per cent
reduction in the value of realities,
and rejected it. The petition Of the
O. r. & n. company for reduction
from $500 to 1896 a mile for rolling
stock on 1919 miles of main line
in this county amounting to 49,
995.45, was rejected.
Far down in the list of the re-
jected petitioners, was that of Weep
ing Willie Mcdonald, who had pur-
chased landed estate of 40 acres,
Just east of and contiguous to the
city limits, and upon which the as
SCISSOR had placed valuation OF
$3.50. Weeping Willie evidently
regarded this act as contempt OF
court, and in carefully drawn out
papers instructed the board to re-
duce the assessment to $500. For
some instrutable reason the board
neglected it's plain duty, and left
the assessors valuation to stand the
test of time and the ecrutinizing wis
dom of the superior court.-Gazette

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, May J.-Professional opera
tors all turned bulls after a brief period
of doubt and hesitancy after the opening
Smaller operators were forced into this
unmiStable temper of the outside public,
manifested by their disposition to come
into the market and buy stocks in large
blocks at the market price. The market
was full of outside buying orders and
business was on large scale, but had Il
very heavy burden of profit taking sales
to carry, and the small opening gains
We're III large part wiped out during the
first hour. The reaction here failed to
impair the confidence in London, where
Americans continued very active and
strong. Buying here for arbitrage ac-
count was also on a very large scale in
all the international stocks and turned
the scale to the bull side. The large
number of small lots of standard divi-
dend paying stocks was also a conspicu-
Gus feature of the trading. arguing the
re-wakened confidence of the INVESTING
public, and the greater ease in the money
market, where the rates are no LONGER so
inviting for the employment of ready
cash. Sugar WAS iuriously active and
very volatile all day, covering an extreme
range of Az points and gaining 35S points
net The large majority of stocks trad.
ed in are at least point higher, and net
gains range from that up to 3 points.
There was no special development in the
situation to account for the buoyancy OF
the market beyond the general conviction
that SPANS capacity to carry on the war
is nearly exhausted, and that the danger
of any serious impairment of this coun.
try's prosperity by reason of the struggle
is about passed. The bond market
shared the activity and strength of the
stock market and shows higher prices all
around. Total sales. $685., 900.

Chicago, Ills, May 5.--One dollar and
fifty cents per bushe was the price of
May wheat at the end of to-day's SEES
sion of the Board of Trade. This rep
resents an advance since yesterday of 20
cents. July wheat gained 33s. To-day
advance was the most remarkable in
many years. Famine of grain abroad,
and enormous sales of American wheat
TO fill the empty granaries of Europe,
caused the advance here. Shorts were
driven TO cover, and one small failure
