mere receive the response that oats can not
be marketed nv
Business Is better than last week and much
oet,er than the same week last year cool
nealtny trade for summer and fall Is antici-
pated and Houston dealers are beeinninr IN
ioresee the Improvement SO long anticipated
In speaking Of business conditions. Mr.. w
b. jones of II. d. Taylor & Sons said Tho
country merchants are in good shape. They
are not overstocked in anything but tobaccos.
which will be affected by increased revenue
ana IN buying this they have acted wisely
Nearly all merchants have passed through an
ordeal OF depreeiating prices and have learned
lesson IN buying, consequently they have mo-
great surplus general stock, Mr. Jones thinks
the entire country Is In better financial con
dition than it has been for Ave years Prices
are steady and he predicts that most every.
thing on the list will be higher, though OK
peeting no sudden nor great appreciation in
prices. "
