:. Sme of business in the retail trade
Nhows q considerable advance over the
Same period year ago. The same i5
H1ttle demand for money. Tho realty
market continues fairly brisk, with good
prospects for the future. AS one dealer
n realty put It yesterday, there Is more
eonfdence In the future Of Salt Lake to-
DAY than ever before. From 300 to 500
additional families haye taken up resi-
dence in Salt Lako during this spring
and the summer SO far. and there are
View houses unoccupled.
Another feature is that a fixed value
has now been established for property

kcomes up to the established ratio the
Property cannot be purchased There are
a still plenty bargain hunters, and an occa-
0Bional one may be found, but the rule
NOV is that the governing price must be
bRered or there is no sale,

Gamers Raise the Price.
A matter which is agitating the local
Jobbers are advices received from the
California Gamers ASSOCIATION, showing
that there will be a considerable in
grease in prices this year over those Of
Ia year ago. Just what Is the reason for
the Increase is not known. The crops
this year are good. but on account OF the
Wholesale destruction OF stocks in San
|Frencisco the Gamers start with a clean
market and this may be accountable for
the advance. Apricots will be so cents
per case higher this year, peaches will
bo rs cents higher and pears will be re-
duced 10 cents per case. Grapes and
plums Will be 10 cents higher and there
Will be an advance OF so cents and 60
cents per case on canned strawberries
and raspberries respectively. Starch will
be increased Is cents per hundred
pounds. Syrup will be advanced and
orange and lemon peel Will be 9 cents
per pound dearer Citron peel formerly
dh cents. is now quoted at 20 cents per
pound.
In the wholesale trade the difficulty
of getting goods delivered on anything
Like contract time Is still being expe-
rtenced. Eastern manufacturers are TAX
Ing orders for next springs goods and
good business is being done.
Although in the midst OF summer, the
retail trade continues exceedingly good
Summer sales of dress goods are we'll
patronized and the general run of bust
ness Is high above the average at the
beason. The clothing business is also
holding out we'll, and gents furnishers
have no room for complaint.
Although the rush season in the hard
ware trade Is over q good volume OF
business is still being done There Is a
steady demand for refrigerators. freez-
ers, garden hose, lawn mowers and such
other articles as the season creates the
