OF IT, But can tell but little on a
short trip. wish you would notice
the above points and give me your
views Here. II land was old and
worn out, IL could be sowed to clover
and redeemed and made good. am
told clover does no good there, aud II
sown and does not grow. that IL will
dry and burn out every summer. Now.
these are important points to an East
ern man. Also am told that timothy
does no good. and also alfalfa. No
one disputes that II is wonderful
fruit country, but also say that fruit
has but little value, or no market for
It.
Several are figuring on this deal be-
side myself, and we would like to have
your honest opinion. Have you good
soil can II be bought at a cheap
price. or at what different prices? Can
you raise clover or grasses with Ger.
tainty for pasture? DO your streams
overflow In winter? Is II disagreeable
in winter or particularly so? Can
any kind of stock be raised to ad.
yantage7 DO you think land can be
bought there so II will pay a fair rate
OF interest to rent IL, and do you think
there is a probability for an advance.
Does all surplus fruit. stock. etc.
have to be shipped East? How are
your markets? Now am asking many
questions. but they are OF interest to
me and others. Is II healthy there in
winter? VIII be pleased 10 hear from
you as soon as convenient Is there
anything but buying land that could
do to make business OF? How about
pine timber land? A. s. FUNK.

moro and the South known to have taken
place during the week did not cut any figure
in the statement at all. That ia to say. a
cash loss was shown OF only s., 600, ~ against
one of 34,OOO.0OO estimated yesterday.
Proper adjustment OF the matter, accord
ing to the usual custom will probably be
made in the bank statement next week,
but as the money situation has become
wholly a minor matter OF consideration in
the financial community, the weekly bank
statements are now regarded AZ possessing
only trihing importance. The Southern
Pacific's report OF an increase in net earn
ings for August Of 327l 7+l, following an
increase in net for July, deserves at
tention. a. it points to the fact that the
Southern Pacific's large expenditures for
betterments are nearing an end and that
the enormous earnings of tho system will
probably begin to show in net instead OF
merely in gross from now on. The Erie,
Atchison and Missouri Pacific systems
will soon make extremely favorable ex-
hibts OF September business, and these.
taken with the Chicago and Northwestern's
report of an increase in gross Of nearly
S6OO OOO'for September, and with the reports
of freight congestion in Cincinnati, Cali
fornia and other portions Of the West and
Northwest. explain abundantly the GROUNDS
of confidence as to the future held by bust
ness men.

favorable. in that it exhibited loss in cash
of only $4,000 when all previous estlnat.s

four millions of dollars. 1t was generally
considered. however. that the statement
did not present n fair average OF the con.
