granary, hog houses, hen house, in
fact all necessary buildings in good
condition. Here is dandy farm
surrounded by high priced farms.
Price $4,000 per acre and worth
every cent of it. This will have to
be almost an all cash deal.
No. 81. Here's another first class
farm $50 acres, u mile small
country store and school. A splen-
did neighborhood, one of the grand
est views in the state, overlooking
valley and river for miles. But while
this is desirable, it won't clothe and
feed, so here is how that can be
done; 100 acres of this farm is
gently rolling and every acre till
able, none finer for an upland farm,
finely fenced and the best of water.
This is no run down farm. The
other 100 acres is more rolling but
first class pasture and farm land.

fruit, and such a lovely front yard

buildings, deep we'll, tanks, 800 bar
rel cistern, good barn, room for 10
horses hay and corn, corn shed, corn
cribs and granary, machine shops

houses. If you are looking for some
thing good, here it is. The 100 alone
is worth 500 per acre.
Price $50 per acre. Will take
$4,000 to $4,000 cash to handle this.
About $4,000 first mortgage at 5
per cent.

Dun's Weekly Review.

New York, May 21.-R. G. Dun & Co., s weekly review of trade tomorrow will say:
 Almost every development except the lengthening debate on the tariff is faVor- able and the gains made in spite or the tariff disturbances are fair indication of what may be expected when that Is out of the way. The domestic agricul- tural conditions are excellent and yet the prices of farm products continue to advance, The area of improvement In iron and steel is rapidly widening and notable event of the week is the restora- ton of wages by the independent pro ducers. The reports of the railroads are of steadily increasing business and the latest earnings show gain Of l4's per cent over last year, the decrease as com pared with 1907 being 12.s per cent.
 The primary cotton goods market still continues to be dominated by the high level of prices for the raw material.
 Although slight irregularities have oe- cured here and there, the market, as a whole. is steady with manufacturers re- luctant to enter into contracts Tor any extended delivery Export buying has been restricted, China having withdrawn entirely from the market for the pres ent There is some inquiry from the Red Sea at lower prices than manufac- turers are willing to concede, while about ooOO bales of standard drills have been sold to India and considerable more bus mess has been done in prints from Ma nila and South America. The print cloth market Is still very firm with sales mod crate and more demand on the finer cloths for converters and cutters. In the Wool7 en goods division duplicate business on heavy weights has been fairly satisractory and a further improvement is anticipated as clothiers now know the general trend
 of demand The principal feature of trade is the high level of prices at which business is being done.
 In the dress goods division a scarcity in the fall season is anticipated The gen eral level of yarn prices is higher, al though comparatively little increase in business is noted.
 The slight improvement in the condltlohs still continues and while there has been no especially heavy trade, business shows an increase in nearly all lines. Prices have again advanced and further general rise Is announced on nearly all lines The Chicago packer-hide market mas ruled considerably less active since the liberal buying of last week and country hides are steady.
 Foreign dry hides have advanced stil further and stocks of all kinds are wei | sold. Calf skins are strong. The Tea 1 ture of the sole leather market Is ths 1 announcement of further advance II prices of union backs.

OPTIMISM FILLS
 TRADE REPORTS Retail Business Is Improving But Still Very Slowly OUTLOOK IS MUCH BETTER Preparations For Fall Trade Are Being Made on Broader Scale
 and In Many Lines Large
 Orders Are Booked.

New York, May 21.-Bradstreets' to- morrow will say:
 Weather conditions continue irregular. but a change for the better has occurred in staple crop conditions and retail bus mess is slightly improved, though dis- appointing and showing evidences of the depression heretofore evident. There are slow orders from jobbers and wholesale houses, but there is more assured op- timism permeating the reports as to the outlook for next fall and winter. Best reports as to retail trade come from the upper part of the great central valley and it's tributaries.
 Trade seems slow to improve in San Francisco and in parts of the Pacific northwest. At wholesale preparations for a good trade later on are found in a number of lines. The leather situation as a whole is very strong. Reductions in prices of printed cotton goods have induced booking of large orders. Build ing is active, though lumber demand seems to drag. All these indications or activity have to do with future trade, the expectation being that the removal Of tariff uncertainty will give an impetus to general business. Retail trade, though better than year ago, has been on the whole disappt ing, causes assigned for this being weather conditions and the high prices asked for goods when com pared with the reduced purchasing power of the general public.
 Shoe manufacturers have been forced to charge higher prices and this re- tards buying.
