Of increased rainfall in the western

nature keeps q very perfect set OF
books, and at the end Of every decade
the precipitation for ten years will be
found TO be the same in volume. For
this statement. which is backed by
the records. Professor Moore has

WAITING ON CROPS.
Is More i'm Evidence Than This
Time Last Year.
Cities Reporting Bank Clear
ances Generally Show Gains.

New York, June 22.-Bradstreet' s
Review of Trade says:
Long awaited seasonable weather
has further improved retail trade and
crops, slightly enlarged recorded bus
mess with jobberS, and made far more
confidence in orders for future deliv-
cry. There is o. disposition to await
clearer indications for the out-turn of
the growing crops, and there is less
assurance as to booking ahead in
many lines than was noted at this
time in 1906.
terror demand is lighter, but the large
cities show good local demand.
Ease in raw sugar and the uncer-
tainty as to the fruit crop out-turn
make for present quietnesS in refined
grades. though the consumption has
been helped by increased receipts of
fruits. The canned goods trade has
had an immense demand for the ball
ance of last years production and
stocks are down to the minimum,
with prices high. California dried
fruits are at the highest prices of the
year.
Wool markets are quiet with fine
grades relatively. most active, and
western prices higher than eastern.
Copper continues to recede and
even lower prices are looked for in
some quarters. Consumers are buy
ing for immediate needs only. 1t is
probable that if prices were lowered,
much new business would develop.
