CUMMERLiAL REVIEW.
General Trade Conditions.

R. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review
Of Trade" says:
Business is we'll maintained, aside
from the quietng influence OF the vaca
ton season, which somewhat restrict,
trade and retards collections. Making
due allowance ior the period, there il
no cause for complaint. The adverse
factors that have been operating
against prosperity in recent preceding
weeks are no longer as potent, norma,
influences gradually prevailing. Labo,
controversies still exist, curtailing the
output Of few products and the con
sumption OF all the necessaries Of life
Crops are not going to market as
freely as usual, although the agricul-
tural outlook is distinctly favorable.
Somewhat easier prices for the great
food staples testify to brighter crop
prospects.

23S in the United States against 2o7

rial stored, to use in repairs, should
any damage be done to his dam or
house. 1t Is said that the beaver sleeps
in his chamber with his tail hanging

tail telegraphs him, so TO speak, whep
the water begins to fall.
TRAPPING BEAVERS.
"T'he modern way of trapping beaver
Is to cut hole in the ice between the
woodpilc and the house. A set steel
trap is then lowered by means of a
split stick. until it sinks into the mud
and Is thus concealed. The chain of
the trap is fastened to a dry stake,
driven solidly into the pond. The
beaver discovers the stake, and in try.
ing to remove it gets caught. AS he
cannot readily gnaw dry stick, he
soon browns.
II have known beaver to occupy
ponds where lumbermen have built
dams in the woods, but they generally
prefer to do their own work. \ few
years ago some beavers were discov.
