in this gloom. for there has always been
an end to such periods before. and the

The price OF 50 cents for No. club wheat

raises wheat for his livelihood and no
more 10 those who make commissions by

Seattle, and with barely cents more for
No, hluestem. which is generally cents
higher. 1t means that the farmers may
get 50 cents bushel at their ranches or
anywhere east OF the Cascades.
There seems absolutely no demand FOR
