Conditions of Trade.

1t is one of the frequent paradoXes
Of business that the one thing which
now makes prices rise is the only thing
that clouds the future. They rise in
iron and wheat because scarcity is
feared, but the scarcity, if prolonged
and real, would much impair prosper
ity. IN wheat it does not seem to be
real, nor in iron lasting, and mean
while other elements of prosperity
continue potent. 1t is great thing
in money markets that exports Of
gold have caused no apprehension,
because recognized as mere borrowings
by foreign bankers, the May return of
foreign commerce showing exports %
millions larger than imports, in spite
Of decrease of 80 cents in the export
price Of wheat, and a large increase
in imports. In eleven months the eX-
cess of merchandise exports has been
495 millions and bankers estimate that
260 millions worth of securities have
been returned from Europe, with so
few in recent months that the amount
remaining to be diSlodged is probably
small.

Farms In Northern Wisconsin

are as good, if not better than farms in
any state of the Union. There is no
reason why the intending settler should
90 to distant states in order to secure a
good location. Northern Wisconsin is
rapidly developing, but there are still
thousands of acres of fine hardwood
farming lands open to the settler, which
can be obtained at reasonable figures
and upon easy terms. The soil is of the
best, good roads are being put in, and
school houses are rapidly building.
The immense undeveloped resources
in the shape Of rich deposits of iron ore,
clay, kaolIn and mari, as we'll as large
tracts of hardwood timber, offer extra
ordinary inducements TO the manufact-
urer. The Wisconsin Central lines run
through the timber and minearl belt
thus offering quick and cheap transit to
all the principal markets of the Union.
