The Grocery World of New York, the
leading periodical in the trade, gives
Us some interesting pointers as to pro-
visions for the coming Winter. High
prices for butter and milk will prevail,
owing to the high prices Of feed and
beef. Rolled oats have strongly ad-
vanced. owing to the shortness in the
oat crop Raisins will probably be
much cheaper, owing to an enormous
yield in Spain. where about twice as
many tons have been produced this
year as usual. The scarcity of apples
will make high-priced cider. The prune
market is ruling at the highest prices
in years-a basis of s. 15c. pound.
Brazil has a tremendous coffee crop,
with an increase of "a per cent. over
last year, which promises a strong re-
duction in the cost of that beverage.

syndicate of Stockton capitalists
have purchased a 5O0-acre tract of very
rich land in California to raise black
eye beans. which are used in such large
quantities in the adulteration of coffee.
1t is said that this bean is far the best
adulterant of coffee that has yet been
found. The French, however, have for
a century been using chickory with
great success. Almost all French cof-
fee has more or less chickory in it, and
the French coffee taste has become edu-
Gated to a combination of coffee and
chickory. Very many People prefer the
pure chickory and will drink nothing
else. The black-eye bean has been
found so valuable for this purpose that
it has been selling for five cents per
pound. There is nothing harmful about
its use. and it makes really {. stew of
parched beans, and many people claim
that its flavor is delicious OF course,
it is not really coffee, cannot be made
so, and cannot have the effects that
coffee has upon the constitution.

HEARST LEAVES THE SOCIALISTS.

| A commotion has been created by Mr..
Hearst's Labor Day speech at James
town. when he declared his lack of pa
lief that there was no reason for hos
tility between employer and employe.
He said that the captains of industry
were just as essential as Generals of
the army, and should receive corre-
spending recognition. THE working
man is worthy of his hire, the business
man of his profit. The man who digs
worth his wage. The man who tells
him where to find the gold deserved his
profit. too. The great financial pro-
moters, organizers, executives of Amer
lea, are worthy of recognition and re-
ward
This speech has met with widely diff
ferent comment by the press. The mos.
OF them are inclined to the belief that
Mr.. Hearst is on some new lay" the
purpose of which has not yet developed,
but will in time show some Interior pur-
pose not uncOnnected with Mr. Hearst s
own advertisement and benefit There
Is strong question as to who wrote it.
Arthur Brisbane, the Socialist, VINO has
been credited with supplying most of
Mr.. Hearst's ideas. is held to be guilt
less, and Beatrice Fairfax, Ella Wheeler
wilcox and several other fountains of
bland and pleasant optimism have been
credited as the author of the address.
On the other hand. the Socialistic
press simply foams at the mouth. They
claim that at last the mantle of hypoc-
risy has been stripped from Mr.. Hearst
and he is revealed as capitalist and in
full sympathy with "the exploitation of
the working class" whatever that may
mean. The Chicago Socialist says:
"Mr. Hearst is also opposed to class
hatred. Since when? If there is any
thing that has tended TO stir up and
1ncite to unreasonng, futile class hatred
in this country it is the daily outpour-
ings of senseless denunciations of trusts
and corporations of which Hearst's pa

Hicks Predictions For January.

"a regular storm period is central on the
5th. covering the 3rd to the 9th. The mer-
curry period which was central on December
9th, extends to the 7th and will excite the
normal tendency to rain, sleet and snow on
and touching the 4th, 9th and 9th. These
storms will culmnate on and touching the 9Th,
attended by low barometer, higher tempera.
ture and possible lightning and thunder to the
southwark. Rain will turn rapidly to seet
wave, will spread dangerously far into the
south and east, progressively from the north
west, from about the 7th to the 18th. Be on
the watch for Boreas. He will raid the coun-
try from his northern home far into the south
ward.
"A reactionary storm period is central on
the I1th, 18th and 18th. This period en-
braces new moon, at solar eclipse node, also
at greatest decinatiou south and in perigee.
Continuing forecasts for the second January
period note the following: Barometer, wind
currents and clouds will all show growing
storm conditions by the 11th and 18th, but the
crisis will fall on and touching the 18th. High
winter gales, rain southwark, and snow storms
amounting to blizzards and blockades north
ward should find no student of these forecasts
mapping at this time. Another wide and
wicked cold wave will come on the scene
about the 18th to the 10th.
"a regular storm period is at the beginning
of Venus period. Storm conditions at this
period will develop and culminate from the
10th to the Doth. The crisis will be on and
touching the 10Th. Renewed rain and snow
storms will pass over the country during this
period, with high barometer, gales and cold
wave following close behind and reaching
most parts about the Goth and 21st.
ga reactionary storm period will lie be.
tween the 21st and Oath, touching perhaps the
last of the 21st and the first of the 24th its
crisis being on the 22nd and 23d Renewed
snow squalls will be general about these days
and quckened cold will follow up to about the
26th.
"a regular storm period covers the 9th to
31st, having its center on the 28th. AS shown
by the storm diagram, this last January storm
period brings US well toward the center of the
Venus period.
By the 9th decided fall of the barometer
will appear in western sections and as this
condition moves eastward it will merge into
cloudiness, higher temperature and storms of
rain, turning into snow. The crisis of this
period will center on the 29Ih. Within thirty
six hours of noon On the 29th, especially on
and following that date, heavy rain and wind
storms will cross the country to the southwark
and in central and northern latitude rains will
turn to snow and sleet, with indications good
for severe gales and blizzards out of the north
west. Such is our calculation, and we ven
ture to admonsh all concerned to watch
against blizzards, snow blockades and a wide
and dangerous cold wave, all to culminate in
natural order and succession during the last
Eve days of January"
