BRADSTREETS REPORT

New York, Sept. 11.-Bradstreets to- morrow will say: The advance of the fall season and the notable enlargement of the movement of cereals and cotton to market at good prices have made for a further moderate expansion in the jobbing and retail trade and in collections. This is especially marked at western, Pacific coast, and southern centers. but the point is made that agricultural sections have done better relatively than the large industrial cities in the matter of retail trade, pos sibly because of warm weather or the reduced purchasing power of city workers and the high prices paid for farm products.
 Business failures in the United States for the week ending September 10th, number 190 against 21O last week, 192 in 1907, 164 in 1906, and 1SS in 1905.

THE RECORD
 OF A WEEK
A Gradual Improvement in
 Trade is Indicated
The Agricultural Sections Make a Better Showing
 Than Industrial Centers.

New York, Sept. 11.-R. G. Dun's re- view of trade tomorrow will say: Small gains are the rule in trade re- ports although the changes are insigni- ficant and it is only in the aggregate that any tangible progress can be dis cerned. The interruption of a holiday made comparisons with the same week last year unusually adverse but indus trial reports indicate that much ma chinery that has been idle many months resumed after labor Day.
 The production of pig iron is now at higher rate than at any previous time this year and many hands have re- turned to work in the textile mills, while the shipping departments in all wearing apparel houses are beginning to feel the pressure of the demand for the fall and winter trade. The trade in domestic hides is light.

Tempe is a Ralph Cameron camp. That was demonstrated last night when the Southsiders rallied to the big republican campaign meeting like flies around a sugar barrel. If Ralph Cam eron puts as much ginger into the meetings that are to follow, as was exhibited last night, there will be a landslide in Arizona next November that will set him down in congress with a nice margin to play on.

One more question, Mr.. Hamilton
what was your observation as to air
currents and circulation OF air In your
orchard before and after lighting these
pots? In the event OF the necessity OF
firing the pots discovered that In
every case the air was quiet and with
in a very short period Of time after
lighting the pots there was a circula-
ton Of atmosphere varying from all
points OF the compass. In other words
in one section Of the orchard the name
out Of the pots might be moving west
ward while in another section it was
moving eastward.
Did you regard this air circulation
as hurtful or helpful to the heating!

ciple.
