WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW
6radstreet's Report on the Condition
Of Business.

nePo'N oH tHc OoUultion
Of Business.
Bradstreets state of trade says:
As the season advances trade tends
to show further expansion. and indus
trial lines are becoming more active.
Outputs are being increased by plants
already in operation, and frequent re-
ports come to hand of assumptions by
concerns that have been shut down
for some time past.
Under the circumstances employ
ment is more general. payrols are
larger and more money is available
for spending.
In nutshell, trade is good; industry,
particularly iron and steel, is active,
and prospects are pleasant, the most
notable drawbacks being reduced
yields OF cotton and a smaller than
earlier expected corn crop.
Currency is moving to the country
in larger volume demand for money
for general purposes is increasing.
and naturally rates tend to stiffen.
Collections are fair to good, the under
current being in the direction of i'm.
provement.
Business failures for the week end
ing with Sept were 160, against POI
last week, 210 in the like week OF
1908. 1SO In 1907. 121 in 1906 and 1877
in 1905.

LAST HOPE OF LIQUOR GONE
Seizure Law Drives South Haven
Pharmacists Out of Business.

South Haven, Mich, has been
dry for the last eighteen years,
but it is now even dryer than it
has been at any time during that peri
cd, for this week the search and seiz-
ure law enacted by the last legislature
went into effect. Local drug stores,
which reaped a harvest by selling
beer, and other liquid refreshments for
medicinal purposes" cannot do this
unless the doctor issues a written pre-
."ription, and this none of the physi-
clans cares to do.
Already two drug stores have gone
out OF business and several more are
expected 10 follow, for 1t is said that
the strictly legitimate drug business
will not pay the cost of lighting the
stores.

Puffed Wheat-1Oc Puffed Rice-15c

These are the foods invented by Prof. An
derson, and this is his curious process:
The whole wheat or rice kernels are put into
sealed guns, Then the guns are revolved for
sixty minutes in heat of $50 degrees.
That fierce heat turns the moisture in the
grain to steam, and the pressure becomes tre-
mendous.
The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1909-09-08

Then the guns are unsealed, and the steam
eXplodes. Instantly every starch granule is
blasted into myriad particles.
The kernels of grain are expanded eight
times. Yet the coats are unbroken, the shapes
are unaltered. We have simply the magnifed
grain.

light in them. Order it now
