ST. PAUL PRODUCE.

The produce market during the past week
has been only fairly active. due. uEdoubted-
ly, to the prevalence of the hot weather and
the work of harvesting. Butter has been
firm in all the dealings Of the week with
tendency to higher prices. This condition
has been largely due to the meagerness of The
offerings. A good shipping demand exists
for all classes Of . tier the best request be-
Ing for fancy grades. Mediums are also in
good demand, but there Is little call for the
lower grades. Retail d,alers have bean good
purchasers. Eggs have been steady with re-
ceipts from day to day about equal to de-
mand and thereby preventing any advance, n
fact there has been some easing eff in prices.
There is good shipping demand for eggs
and the local retailers ere good buyers There
has been considerable in the way of purchase
for speculative accounts. as we'll as for sor-
age. Fruit has been active with gocd sup
plies and ct very light prices. Auction sales
have occurred daily and have been well at
tended, but the prices have not shown much
snap. There has been a light dem md for
poultry. some grades of which have been in

NEW BARLEY.


The following advice is given by e. r.
Bacon Co.. of Milwaukee, to shippers of
barley, and it may not be inappropriately or
unproftably followed by readers of The
G o b having this product for sale:
We would say to our customers that there
Is no sale for barley as yet, except at
large discount from its real value to cover
the expense and risk of handling it over in
warehouse and keeping it in condition until
there is a mating demand for it. 1t is a pity
that farmers should crowd their bsrey on the
market when 1t Is not wanted, and before it
is thoroughly cured and got into con iitson
for wsrehousing, thereby sacrificing Sc to &c
per blu in price. which they might save by
stacking and holding until maltsters are In
the market for it. There will be no malt
ing demand until the middle or latter part
of August. Rushing the barley into market
before this demand sets in tends to depress
prices and produce lower range of va ues
when supplies are wanted for consunp- i've
use. We look for better prices fcr the Nv
crop than have been ruling during the D st
season, for the reason that it is generally
understood that the acreage is considerably
reduced. and also that old stocks are W ii
used I'D.

A Carload of Paner.

The first unbroken car load of print
paper ever shipped to Allen county

to the REGISTER.
1t Is generally admitted that the
best index OF the condition of any

sents 1t. An up-to-date, we'll sup
ported newspaper, means lively,
progressive and growing city. And
the growth of a paper measures ac-
curately the growth of the town. AS
an evidence therefore of the distance
Travelled by lola during the past year
the growth of the REGISTER, which
justities the purchase of the paper on
which it Is printed in car load lots, ,
must be gratifying to many besides
the publisher.
The year that is just closing has
been the biggest business year in the
history of the REGISTER. 1t has seen
1t grow from an eight page country
weekly TO six-page daily and twelve
page weekly, increasing the Dnmber
of its employees from four to sixteen
and expanding it's payroll from
twenty-five dollars week to nearly
one hundred, adding more than a
thousand dollars worth of new ma
terial and enlarging it's range of work
until it now includes book making
rs well as book printing.
All of which has been made posi-.
ble by the unprecedented growth of
lola, and by IA cordial good will and
generous patronage for which the
