Prosperous Times
MINNEAPOLIS

Spouse when the first cold weather Of ap-
preaching winter brought the farmers in
from their fields to market their crops.
Prices have held up well throughout the
year, and Christmas trade bids fair to
exceed last years. Collections have
dragged this fall, but there has been no
lack Of money to carry country custom
ers. Prospects for the balance of the year
are so good that it looks as though the
twelve months showing will make ia
Vorable comparison with 1902.
Gain in Groceries.
Groceries a small gain over
last year can be looked for. There has
been a steady demand for all kinds of
provisions. The competition of new in
land jobbing houses has not been felt,
which shows that there has been
steady increase in consumption, the re-
suit of growth in population.
Hardware-The number of orders has
been larger than last year, but the vol
ume has been 10 per cent smaller Prices
have been better than last year. Collec-
tions in this branch Of jobbing are as
good as in other lines.
Drugs and Sundries-There has been
A lively Christmas trade in sundries is
anticipated by retailers and the years
business has been quite satisfactory.
Crockery and Glassware-It looks as
though there would be a slight increase
on the year over 1902. Orders given in
August have about all been delivered and
last year this was not the case until
Dec. 1.
Boots and Minneapolis trade in
this branch has been extended consid-
erably in Iowa and Illinois especially this
year, more than offsetting the competi-
ton Of Chicago and st. Louis for North
western trade.
Rubber Goods-The tone of the market
is decidedly better than at this time last
year. The buying has been more careful
and stocks are well in hand.
Hats and Caps-October's weather
caused dull period, but trade has picked
up at a lively rate in the past two weeks.
An increase of 10 per cent is calculated
on for the year as a whole.
Farm Implements has not equal
ed last years by about 10 per cent. A
falling off In the line Of vehicles will &C
count for the preponderance Of the de-
crease Farm machinery has about held
it's own Collections have been dilatory
this fall. but are improving.
Sash, Doors and Blinds-A decrease Of
10 per cent is acknowledged, largely due
to the falling off in outside orders.
