Tie CAbgt Trade.

In the current issue OF the American Carpet
and Upholstery Journal of Philadelphia the
statement is made that the new line OF =
goods for spring wholesale trade will not be
shown until about the 18th Of this month,
which IS considerably later than for some years
past. The delay is attributed TO the heavy line
OF business done during the past fall, which
has retarded spring preparations
Il IS believed that an advance Of cents a
yard On all the finer grades Of carpets Will be
necessarily demanded and that at least IN
cents q yard on inSrains VIII be added TO the
present prices
During October the leading manufacturers Of
upholstery goods announced an advance OF u
per cent on cotton tapestries, curtains, table

and nearly every product connected with the
carpet and upholstery Industries
Although there number of big lace cur
the only goods Of this character shown at the
National Export Exposition in Philadelphia
are from a foreign house
Another advance was made last month by the
IuoIeuu and OilCloth manufacturers, which
was necessitated by the extreme nigh price OF
burlap and other ingredients which go into the
making Of these floor coverings
As indication Of the general prosperity Oh
the carpet manufacturers, one firm in Phlla-
delphia added during the last month forty-one
more looms. bringing the total amount Of
looms in their plant up TO over 200; all running
on various grades Of ingram carpets.
The recent decision Of the Board Of United
States General Appraisers has put a duty Of

There is no further decline in Butter. but the
market is depressed, with liberal supplies
Ranch Eggs are scarce and steady. Dealers
saw that some shippers in the country are be-
ginning to mix cold storage Eggs In with ranch
in the attempt to palm the whole box off as
ranch Eggs This trick has been tried for
several years but the commission merchants
are on the keen lookout for 1t, and the ship
per who resorts To this dodge hereafter will
simply have his ranch Eggs sold at cold stor-
age prices. besides losing his reputation as a
shipper.
