This colossal sum, moreover, repre-

OF the enormous increase in the cost Of

has been rendered necessary BY the

Reliable statistics show that from

to our people. and ex-senator Davis
for many years has been one OF the

trade center in the world.
The capital invested in the jobbing
business in Minneapolis is estimated at
between $40,O0O,0O0 and $50,000,0O0,s
and the volume of business reached
probably $2O0,OO0,00O per annum. Gro.
ceries hardware, dry goods, shoes, pa

materials, paints, oils, glass, furniture,
are few Of the important lines. The
city has the largest Wholesale dry
goods, hardware and grocery houses In
the northwest.
Closely connected with the wholesale
trade and intimately associated with
the receiving market of Minneapolis Is
the trade in fruit. For some years the
CITY has been the chief distributing
market for fruit in the west outside OF
| Chicago, AS many varieties Of fruit are
not raised in this. latitude and still
fewer are to be found further north,
the Importance Of this business is mani
fest. Associated with the fruit bust
. ness is the produce commission BUSH
ness. which has attained an immense
volume, and the butter and cheese bust
ness which is of such size as to mark
Minneapolis as the chief dairy products
market Of the northwest. Connected
with this branch is the creamery BUSH
ness-the buying of cream from the
farmers and the manufacture of but
ter in city creameries-an extensive
and Important business and one in
which city and country have mutual
interest.
