New York, July 2-Bradstreet's review
OF the state OF trade:
Better weather and crop reports fur
ther expansion IN operations for fall and
next winter and a larger demand at re-
tail are leading features of this weeks
reports 10 Bradstreet's. These reports
come most numerously and strongly from
the Western agricultural sections. yhich
report further improvement in winter
wheat and corn. and maintenance Of
spring wheat conditions al a high point
Southern trade reports are a trihe
more optimistic, due probably 10 the par
uaI cessation OF the heavy rains which
have interrupted trade and retarded cot
ton crop cultivation for some time past.
The cotton crop has. however. suffered
material damage, judging from the nu-
merous bullish crop reports received and
a further sharp advance n prices.
Retail trade has been helped by
steady hot weather. holiday prepara-
ratons. and clearance sales. but there
are stin not lacking reports from many
cities that the spring and early sum
mer turnover Is below expectations
"JObbing trade is OF a midsummer small
hlling-in-order character. Most conf
dence and certainty the largest business
visible is that reported in and being book
ed for next fall. winter, and spring.
in this respect. the strength OF de-
mand for cotton goods a. hardening quo
tations. partly due 10 the strength OF
raw cotton. and the satisfactory reports
as 20 orders booked by woolen and wo--
sted goods. manufacturers for next
springs delivery az very high prices are
by far the notable features.

s..Thou art dream said Life to Love;
And Love replied: "Tis well: I know:
4 dream am I, a dream are YOU,
Then let us to our dreams be true;"
And skipped away among the trees,
Anon to fly, to ride the clouds.
To laugh in the storm. to battle IN the
sun
For Love is free. though Loves a
dream.
nThou art u dream, Z said Love to Life.
aBut / am real:" and life replied:
"a dream am I. and real are YOU?
Then let us to ourselves he true;''
And loudly laughed and ran asyay
10 basl1 and battle. to throb with JOY.
To girdlc the world in fond embrace,
And Love lay dead. no longer FREQ.
