TRADE REPORT.

Bradstreet's report on trade last
week says:
While cross currents in trade and
industry make it difficult to character
ize the general trade situation, the
country over, appearances would indi-
cate that the check given distributive
trade by reactionary weather, crop un-
certainties and additional inaction in
industrial circles is of a transitory
character. Bank clearings, all things
considered, are Of large volume; rail-
road earnings reported to Bradstreet's
point to continued increase over the
same period year ago; and especial
activity is noted in leading manufact-
uring lines, particularly iron and steel,
lumber, cotton goods, coal mining, ma
chinery making and host of lesser
industries. Jobbing distribution at
the central as well as at eastern mar
kets notes further quieting down,
but in the spring wheat sections re-
ports are of undiminished activity.
Despite the lowering in the general
average of wheat as result of dry
weather last fall and the early winter
indicated by the government report.
winter wheat crop prospects are still
for crop in excess of 400 900, 900
bushels and about equal. in fact, to
the indicated final outturn last year.
A large increase in acreage is indicat-
ed in oats and that crop seems to be
progressing WELL Wool has tended to
weakness, owing to the spread of the
strike of weavers to other mills of the
leading interest.
