Easy Way Of Keeping Apples.

One day recently on the farm OF
Frank W. Barber. nearly half a BUSH
81 of sound apples of two varieties
were discovered in the orchard under
tree where they have lain all winter,
apparently not at all injured by expos
ure to the cold. One person declared
that it would mean great labor saving
If fruit growers could always be sure
OF such luck, and leave all apples out,
saving packing for the winter.

SMALL DECLINE IN
WHEAT MARKET
Tone of Market Is Heavy
Nearly the Whole Session
cash WHEAT is FIRM
Trend of Corn Is Downward and With
Liberal Receipts Prices Close at
Decline-Oats and Provisions
Close Irregular.

Chicago, October 4.-Large offerings
from the northwest today made a heavy
wheat market, the close being about &c
to ssc lower. Corn lost &c to &c, oats
7ac to 9sqs4c, and provisions closed irreg-
ular after a very dull day.
A heavy tone characterized the wheat
market all day with the exception of
few minutes at the opening, but losses
were not material. At the onset shorts
held the price up in sympathy with an
advance at Liverpool, which market re-
fused to be impressed by the large ship
ments for the simple reason that the
shipments were not headed her way. The
buying power here exhausted itself early
and heavy offerings from the northwest
made themselves felt. The selling of De-
cember and buying of May by certain
elevator interests furnished the only feat
ure of the day. Cash wheat was firm.
The trend of corn was still downward.
Receipts were liberal and the eastern
distributed demand unimpfessive, al
though there was some little export bust
ness done in old corn. Weather was re-
ported perfect for the curing of the new
cIOp, WHICH IS eSllDldleu ny Il 1Otdl expert
at 100000 bushels. The country was re-
ported free seller of old corn. Cash
corn in the sample market declined half
to one cent
Oats developed an Enthusiastically weak
tone, as was very promptly discovered
by holders of local stock when they at
tempted to unload. Shipping trade was
poor and the weakness or corn and wheat
counted against the price, Cash oats in
the sample market, however. remained
steady. At the bottom December was off
nearly cent, and the close was 5sa&c
under Saturday
In the provisions market October lard
was the only product to advance, closing
l0c higher. Aat the opening there was
some buying for investment, but there
after very little business was done, and
prices generally sagged. Such demand
as there was was mainly for January de-
livery. Cash product was firm.
Leading futures ranged as follows:

New York, October 4.-The stock market

the course of the day under the infiu-
ence of the call money rates. Call money

for the conservative attitude of lenders.
The surplus reserve Of the banks is down
to the vanishing point and the forces
of depletion of cash are still at work.
The government report on condition of
cotton offered small prospect for an in
crease of exchange from exports of that
commodity, the conditions showing a low
