ls tlE, 900 each.
Although the company is branch
ing out, the Mineral mines will not
be overlooked, but many new and
valuable improvements are contem-
plated for that place.
10 connection with the Ladd Metals
Company, although strictly speaking
not OF it, has been organized the
Portland Trading Company With
paid up capital of $50, 900. B. l.
Stayner, of Portland, is general
manager. The object of the COM
pany is to conduct stores at ; number
OF points, where the Ladd B4etsls
Company is operating. Stores will
be started at Pine creek, Eagle, Corn
ucopia, Homestead and Minera!
Work has already begun at some of
those places on the warehouses and
store buildings. With each store
there will be banking department,
With vaults, etc. The Trading com
pany propose to purchase of the
farmers of tue valleys all their pro-
ducts, which will be hauled by their
teams to the railroad as return freight,
thus creating market for the farmer,
and source OF profit to the company.
1t is hoped that the introduction
OF these many improvements and the
consequent building up of the coun-
try, will cause the Northwestern rail
road TO realize the necessity of build
ing down Snake river to control the
large.amount Of traffic that will come
from these sections.
D A. Utter, OF Weiser, is resident
agent OF the company for Idaho.
The organization of these COM
panies are matters of great import to
this section, and the Signal takes
pride IN being the first newspaper to
inform the public of their organiza-
tion and plans

and they had seen enough, and we're
well satisfied there was nothing

you are told Of the scarcity Of gold

Minneapolis-The new month opened
up in wheat with quiet, steady market
The weather was against the price, as
was also the lack of speculative interest
The market was strong. however, and
duced by the bright skies. All over tho
spring wheat country there was good
weather. nor was there bad weather any
where. ConditionS were such as to pro-
mote farm work, and this was the most
important bear feature, but it affected
the market only slightly. Receipts were
light, $50 cars. From South Dakota re-
ports were received of the bad condition
of grain in the shock. due to too much
rain. In some places the stacks arc re-
ported wet through to the ground, and
in other places the grain is softeuins
and sprouting. Locally opinions differ as
to the Importance of this 1t is generally
thought, however. that the heavy rains
of last week, aside from putting a tenn
porary stop to farm work. lowered the
quality of the grain in some districts and
caused some slight loss in quantity as

proportion of damp wheat in the daily
receipts from now on.
