MINNEAPOLIS, MINI, July 29.-Lumber
will advance another 50 cents straight Mon
day morning, this being the fifth marked
advance in prices this year. The lumber
interests claim to be entirely justified In
advancing the price. 1t has been many
years since there was such demand as the
present season has shown, and even with
the advancing prices the demand continues
to exceed the supply. In the case Of eleva-
great quantities, there seems to be an end
Of things, and it appears that they will
soon have to resort either to the higher
grade of 'cribbing," which is almost too
expensive for the purpose, or take to steel
for elevator buildings. There have been
but few years when so much activity has
been shown in the elevator business. This
is partly attributed TO the growth OF new
towns along the Great Northern in northern
Minnesota and the Minneapolis & st. Louis
in the southern part. and partly to the ex-
cellent wheat prospects this season.

There has recently passed into the shad-

was based not so much upon the greatness

because of this that the progressive pulpit
