HOPS ARE FIRM
WITH UPWARD TENDENCY
Hop Buyers Attempting to Scare
Growers into Selling at Pres
ent Market Price.

The Seattle Post-Intellegencer recent
" came out with a scare head article
sizing up the hop situation over the
state, affirming that brewers were going
after the European yield in preference
to the local yield. The HERALD printed
the Post-Intellgencer's article at the
time, with few preliminary remarks to
the effect that it might be ruse on the
part OF the buyers to induce hop growers
to sell. From the following clipping of
The Trade Register, the HERALD's cog
nizance of the case seems to be verified
"Hop dealers of this coast have started
a bear movement by the rumor that
brewers were planning to use European
hops in preference to the local yield.
While some foreign hops will, no doubt,
be used and mixed with the home pro-
duct, the fact remains that the foreign
supply is in no measure adequate to the
demand of the brewers who will even
tually be forced to come to the terms of
the local growers and pay them their
price. Hops have practically been
drug on the market for several years, so
much so that a year ago many hop
ranches were abandoned. This year,
the first in many, hops are profitable,
and the good prices prevailing, and

NET-FISHING IN THE LAKES.
How the Fresh Water Fish Are Cap
tured for the Markets of
the Country.

Practically all commercial fishing in
fresh waters is carried on by the use
of nets, whether a rOwboat or an up
to-date tug is employed. The gill net is
the handiest and is much used in Lake
Erie. This forms & fence on the bottom
of the lake about siXTeet high and any
where from 500 feet to several miles
long. These nets are made of thin cord
and can be slowed away in a very small
compass, says the Buffalo Express.
fish viii swim q gainst the fence Of net
ting, get its head caught in the mesh,
and will stay there until taken out by
the fishermen. The nets are kept III
position in the water by lead sinkers
on the bottom and cork bobs on top.
The entire net is also anchored secure
ly, while the spot is marked by a buoy.
Gill nets often come in sections 300
feet long, and are fastened together in
gangs. Fishing tugs often set gang
that is over four miles long. Each boat
is equipped with two gangs.
Pound nets, whose use in New York
waters is prohibited, are used in Ohio
and Canadian waters. They form large
receptacles in the water into which
fish find their way and are prevented
from getting out by a trap-like ar
rangement at the entrance. Game fish
are often caught in pound nets. Then
there are also smaller trap nets, fyke
nets, and many other varieties, some
of which are peculiar to different To-
calities.
Some commercial fishing is carried
on by the use Of set lines for surgeons,
etc, but such means are not eXten-
slvely employed.

MEXICO MAKING STRIDES.
Our Southwestern Neighbor Is Rap
idly Taking On the Brisknexs
of America.

DR.. Charles Amezcua, of the City Of
Mexico, who is a gentleman of scien-
tifc attainments, told a Washington
reporter how much impressed he was
with the beauty of Washington and
with the surprising beauty of it's au-
tumnal days.
There is one thing" said he, that
probably great many of your readers
do not know, and that is how rapidly
the republic of Mexico is becoming
Americanized. Our people know of the
tremendous progress CT cur great Sis
ter across the Rio Grande, and while
they realize that there is yet an enor-
nous gulf that separates the one from
the other, still the United States is an
inspiration and an incentive. We re-
joice in seeing the United States take
precedence of the old-wOrld monarch
les, and do not doubt it will eclipse
them all.
with such an object lesson before
us it is no wonder that Mexico is like
wise making rapid strides along the
road that leads to national greatness.
The country is awake, wide awake, and
everybody seems imbued with the idea
of glorious destiny We are praying,
also, that Gen. Diaz may have his life
prolonged for at least ten more years,
because he is really the one great fac
tor in our advancement, and as long as
he lives no one fears but that all will
go we'll with our country"
