POULTRY SHOW.

meeting and Exhibit ofsthe State AS
| ISOLATION to behtield at Mime
apolis.
Farmers of the state who wish to
increase, their annua, income to al
appreciable extent and in compare
lively easy way will learn much value
by attending the annual meeting and
exhibit of the Minnesota Poultry As
ISOLATION at Minneapolis, Jan 18th to
Feb. 3rd.
Figures of the income from poultry
published by such states as Missouri
and Iowa show that rich held Is
open to those who will engage in the
poultry and egg business.
It is expected that this will be the
largest meeting and exhibit ever held
by the Minnesota organization Visi-
tors on the second day of the meeting
will be given an opportunity seldom
equalled to see the champion harness
horse of the world, Dan Patch, now
owned by II. W. Savage of Mime
apolis, at the open winter horse show
to be given by the Minneapolis Rid
ing and Driving Club on Park Ave,
one of the beautiful streets Of the
city.
An interesting feature of the
exhibit will be a gathering of the
finest cats in the state. One hundred
pussies of all varieties to be found on
the face of the earth will join the
hens, turkeys and pigeons on giving
the visitor good time. Cats bred in
Egypt will neighbor with the beauti-
tul Angora and the high bred
Maltese. Some Of the individual cats
cost over hundred dollars each.
Fifteen hundred chickens, ducks,
turkeys and geese will be on exhibit
ton. Some of these aristocl attic
animals are worth $75 apiece.
To those who have meyer seen a
homing pigeon the daily relea-e of
fifty of the racers will be exciting.
They will fly for prizes. Some of the
pigeons have already won 1000 mile
races. The pigeon exhibit will be
the largest ever made in the north
west. The money involved can be
appreciated when it is known that
many OF these little creatures are
worth in their own right $50 each.
The railroads in granting low rates
have helped on the cause. In Min
nesota fare and one third is granted,
also from all Wisconsin towns which
are not over fifty miles from the
Twin Cities. Those who wish to
make entries may write George A.

WEEKLY rlARKET LETTER.
The High Price of Wheat DUE to the
Increasing Demand.

The strong fbull market in wheat
has now lasted for about ten days
and has added five cents per bushel
to the price at Minneapolis. The
fact that the movement is founded
on an actual demand for wheat is in
Dictated by the continued strength Of
the cash markets, both at home and
abroad, and the continued large sales
for export. The markets at Liver.
pool, London, Antwerp and Paris are
all sharply higher, and especially for
nearby deliveries. 1t is to be re-
marked also that the London market
which deals mostly in spring wheat,
and the Paris market which derires
only the best qualities, are the
strongest. The Chicago market is
the strongest American market, but
other markets are sure to follow the
lead of the Chicago market. The
strength abroad is caused by low
stocks, small worlds shipment which
is running about one a half million
bushels under weekly requirements
and reports of damage to Russian
winter wheat ana exposed situation
of winter wheat in several other Eur
opean countries where it has no snow
covering; also reports of droutbs in
India which will soon become serions
unless relieved by rain. America
seems to be the only available mar
ket in which Europe can secure
wheat for early shipment. The
worlds available supply has been
decreasing at the rate of over
100000 bushels per week. Prices
are likely to go still higher but you
should avoid buying on sharp up
ward swings, wait for the reactions
which always occur, even in bull
markets, Yours truly,
Edwards, Wood & Go.
