Poultry Receipts Light. - Manager
Harrington of the North Coast Produce
Company reports poultry receipts light
and prices firmer. Good fat hens were
bringing IA cents last week, but the de-
mand for springs was falling. Veal has
been scarce, but was not selling readily.
Butchers report the trade in veal drop
ping off, possibly the cooler weather
having something to do with this. How
ever, this firm could use more hrst-class
veal. They have also had numerous
calls for good eating or cooking apples,
about four tier, as we'll as for Bartlett
pears. Ducks continue in good demand
and they find no trouble in disposing of
all they can get.
Produce Co. can handle more ducks and
geese as we'll as turkeys, the latter be-
ing very scarce are now quoted at 20
cents.
Co. report light receipts and find good
demand for everything in the line OF
poultry that comes in.
New Produce Company.-The newly
organized Seattle Fruit & Produce Auc-
ton Co. with office and salesroom at BIG
Railroad Avenue South, has opened with
good business, and Manager Geo. e. Bry-
ant is we'll pleased with the prospects
for successful business Mr. Bryant
believes that there is good opening
here for a reliable auction company In
asmuch as similar concerns are doing
good business in other large cities. The
inducements this firm holds to the grow
ers are fair prices and quick returns.
All sales are for cash and detailed state
ments of sales are sent to every ship

Geo. E. Bryant, president and manager;

in the fruit business for twenty-five
years and for the past three years has
been engaged in the business on the
coast.

Big Australian Shipment = j. b.
Powles and his large force have been
rushed the past week on large ship
ment for Australia which leaves on the
Vancouver and Australia steamer on Oc-
tober 8. Mr.. Pawles has been successful
in securing refrigerator service for his
shipment, which will be much more sat
isfactory than the old method where ven
tilation was relied on with results that
were sometimes far from satisfactory.
This firm reported the receipt OF the first
car Of cranberrieS several days ago and
last week received another car of fine
berries from the local boys operated by
the Pacific Cranberry Company at the
cranberry station near Ilwaco Mr..
Powles has also been occupied with sew

Poultry Market Firm.-Ralph Burch

Save Growers Money.-Hull Hamlet
& Co. are closing their Wapato office,
after a very successful season, having
shipped from there % cars Of fruit,
which were handled in a way very sat
isfactory to themselves a wei las to the
growers. The growers who took advan-
tage Of the opportunity offered by this
firm have saved considerable money in
the past season by loading mixed cars,
the smaller shippers getting in on this
service and saving heavy express
charges. This has been of especial adj
vantage this year when prices were not
high. President Hull states that they
expect to open their office at Wapato
next year three weeks earlier than this
season. Late peaches have been report
ed scarce by this firm, as well as cam
taloupes, the latter having jumped to
$500 last week. Apples were reported
plenty and prices low. This firm is
greatly pleased with the condition of
city and country trade, Lumber and
single mills are starting throughout
the country and, all in in all, cond1,
tons are regarded as very satisfactory.
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1908-10-01

Last week, the closing week of the
month, was rather quiet on Western
Avenue. The bulk of the local fruit
business was in shortly after the middle
of the month and while .clingstones and
late peaches were coming in and the ap-
pie crop was moving in good shape,
business was not as active as during the
first two weeks of the month. Apples
have come in in good shape to a fair de-
mand, but prices are not what the grow
ers would like to have had. One firm has
been getting considerable Island stock,
but reports prices weak and from pres
ent indications the sooner this stock is
shipped the better it will be.
Large quantities of grapes of fine
quality and in good condition are in evil
dence along the street and cranperrles,
both the Eastern product and berries
from the local boys have been coming
in in large quantities.
Several local firms have been kept
busy with Alaska shipments, which will
be completed early this month, and one
firm has been rushing out a big order
for Australia.
Last week saw the close of the water
melon season and nearly cleaned up the
pineapple stocks
ing the past week and the prices are re-
ported firmer. Good fat hens were quot
ed at IA cents, but springs were not NOV
ing very rapidly. All the poultry deal
quoted last week being IA cents. good
demand is reported for geese, and tur-
keys are also scarce, bringing about 20
cents at the present time. Veal has
been off owing to the fact that several
of the packers have recently brought in
large shipments but most Of the dealers
could use more veal Of first-class quality
than the yare now getting.
One dealer reports that he could use
good eating or cooking apples about four
tier, and he also has large calls for Bart
lett pears.
The price of eggs went up again last
week. For several days the market had
been strong at 81 cents for fresh ranch
ers but late in the week another raise
was reported. The rush orders for the
Alaska trade before the close of the
season probably had some effect on the
price of this product. There is no change
recorded in butter and the cheese mar
ket likewise has been quiet.

Vegetables are plentiful along the
street with a rather slow demand and
prices are low.

of tools are an absolute necessity. such
as hammers. hatchets, saws, chisels,
files screw-drivers, planes.
The question is how to get the best
Of each kind of tool, because for the all
round uses about the home, only the best
tools would be satisfactory.
How many of us can recognize a good
tool when we see it? Most of us merely
ask the hardware man for 1.-The best he
haSfi and take chances on it's quality. In
not only lose the value of the tool, but
the time necessary to replace it, which
may mean considerably more.
Nearly forty years ago Simmons Hard
ware Company began to put out COM
plete line of tools and cutlery under one
name and trademark, backed by a guar
antee, taking all risk themselves and
giving to the public an absolutely safe
way to buy tools. These are Keen Kut-
ter Tools.
These famous tools have been assert
ed into various sets to suit different re-
quirements, and put into cabinets so
you can buy complete set and have a
place to keep them properly.
Keen Kutter Tool Cabinets are the
only ones to be had, containing a set of
tools every one of which bears the same
name and trademark and backed by a
guarantee.
The name Keen Kutter and the trade
mark which is on every tool in the set,
means that it is perfect in every re-
predetermined and tested thoroughly
by experts before leaving the factory.
1t means it is the result of nearly forty
years of study and experiment. 1t means
it will outwork and outwear any other
tool you can buy.
Keen Kutter Tool Cabinets come in
various sizes and assortments, ranging
from $3.50 to $500. The smallest Cab
inets contain just the tools that are
necessary in every household, and the
largest offer a complete tool kit suf-

The football game this afternoon
between the local High School and
the Teller Indians opened at 2:3O
with IA fair crowd in attendance.
Barber started things going with a
fifty yard run. He made good use of
the stiff arm and was too swift for
the end, who was sucked in.
McCary followed Barber's star run
with short end run for thirty yards.
The Indians seem to be making as
hard fight for victory as they did
a month ago, and show the effects of
proper coaching. Caldwell and Ar
