Grain, Flour and Feed.
Wheat-The position of the wheat
market has been a rather uncertain
quantity during the past week. Appa-
rently from the ups and downs regis
tered in the Chicago market and at
other points, the advices from across
the water as to which side engaged in
the battles for supremacy is in the
ascendancy, has considerable bearing
on the price of wheat. At all events
it seems that when Germany is to the
front the price goes up and immedi-
ately tumbles if the reports give the
advantage to the allies. Locally there
mas Deen very little movement within
the week, probably due to some extent
to the holding of stocks by the farm
ers at the suggestion Of the powers
that be in the oranges. At the mo-
ment quotations r given at 91kc for
bluestem, s0hc for club and 7Shc for
red Russian.
Flour-There has been no further
advances in the prices on local grades
of flour since last report, but some
grades of hard wheat flour handled
by local jobbers has been boosted a
little.
Feed-The feed market occupies a
very strong position and there has
been advances in prices within the
week on several lines. We quote,
bran $25, bran and shorts $27, shorts
$34, barley $25, rolled barley 500, oats
$2S, and steam rolled oats 500.

The manufacture of salt in the Phil
ippine islands is accomplished by the
very crudest methods. The greater
part of the salt made is produced by
sun evaporation; a small proportion is
made by artificial heat. Chinese have
introduced slightly improved meth
DDS. About 40,000,OO0 pounds of crude
salt are produced annually. In the
mountain provinces a small amount Of
poor-grade salt is produced by evap-
Grating the water from carbonated
springs, but the supply falls far short
of the demand and the quality is of
the poorest. About 600 pounds
Of salt are annually imported. Most
of this ONE from China. This is
chiefly crude. About 100000 pounds
comes from the United States each
year. This consists Of the better
grades of table salt.

General Trade Conditions.

Bradstreet's says: Hope of better
trade looms larger than do actual
transactions, and except in a few
western centers the trend is tempered
by conservatism, with dullness pre-
vailing in the south. Fall festivals at
numerous points have made for some
what heavier buying, but the improve
ment thus reflected is only relative
and in industrial lines the pace of op-
erations is slow. AS yet American
merchants are cropping for foreign
markets, and while progress may be
made in that direction the situation is
still one of promise rather than per-
Torrance.
1T is conceded that fundamental
conditions are sound, crops being of
excellent volume and that ultimately
crop money will make itself felt, but
on the other hand high rates for
money check enterprise, while high
prices, or, as in the case of cotton, too
low prices, hamper buying and tend to
further cement buyers to the policy
of awaiting developments before or
dering literally.

Purifies Blood
With Telling Effect
Gives Conscious Evidence of
Its Direct Action.

5. S. s.. the famous blood purifier, almost
talks as 1t sweeps Its way through the cir,
c%ulation. Its action is so direct that very
often in some forms Of skin alIlction the
appearance Of the eruptions changes over
night, the itch and redness are gone and
recovery begins Immediately.
As a matter of fact, there is one ingredi.
ent in S. S. S. which serves the active pur-
pose of stimulating each cellular part of
tie body to the healthy and judicious selec-
tIon of its own essential nutrlment. That
Is why 1t regenerates the blood supply why
1t has such a tremendous influence in over
coming eczema, rash, pimples, and all skin
Affections.
And in regenerating the tissues S. S. S.
has a rapid and positive antidotal effect
upon all those irritating influences tAat
cause rheumatism, sore throat, weak eyes,
loss of weight, thin, pale cheeks, and that
WEAKNESS of muscle and nerve that Is gen.
orally experienced as spring fever. Get a
bottle of S. S. S. at any drug store, and in
a Few days you will not only feel brigh; and
energetic, but you will be the picture OF
new life. s. S. s. is prepared only in the
laboratory of The Swift Specific Co, 5S4
swift Bldg, Atlanta, Ca, who maintain a
very efficient Medical Department, where all
who have any blood disorder of a stubborn
nature may write freely for advice and a
special book of instruction. s. S. S. is sold
by drug stores, department and
general stores. but beware of all substitutes,
not accept them.

1t is pretty certain evidence either

creditable management when a mer-
chant features sacrifice sales at this

that the years business is going to

New Metal for the Household.

The beautiful white metal. alumni.
mum, has been with us barely 25
years. 1t is made from clay by cleo.
tr1city. Until quite lately it has cost
more than silver. A writer in the
Scientific American says it is infinite.
ly safer and far more durable for
kitchen utensils than any other metal,
and no n doubts this who has ever
used it.
1t is light,-hardly more than paper
weight. On its white surface dirt is
SO easily seen that one can tell at a
glance whether it is clean or not. It
mas a peculiar power of conducting
heat; put an aluminium dish on the
stove and it is hot instantly. Other
metals are unsatisfactory and some
times dangerous. Iron rusts and gets
dirty and gives food a bad taste and
bad color. Copper is rank poison.
iron has to be enameled and copper
has to be timed to be good, and the
careful housewife knows to her sor-
row hat even so they are treacherous
and unreliable. The tin wears off and
the enamel chips off and is m
times h u of appendicitis, while
aluminium is solid and is good all the
way through.
1t Is not strange that aluminium is
rapidly displacing other metals. Many
women have been deferred from
stocking their kitchens with alumni
mum ware, not knowing how rapidly
the new electrical processes have been
reducing its cost. The most careful
buyers can now have ALUMINIUM.

SINK THREE CRUISERS
THE BRITISH NAVY SUsTAlNs
BIG LOSS BY GERMAN SUB
MARINE BOATS.
OVER 1900 MEN MET DEATH
British Warships Send Three of the
Five Submarines to the Bottom
British Cruiser Pathfinder
May Be Sunk.

London, Sept. 23.-While cruising in
the North sea Tuesday morning the
British armored cruisers Cressy, Ho
que and Aboukir were torpedoed by
German submarines and sunk. Accord
ing to survivors from the cruisers who
arrived at Ymuiden, Holland, Tuesday
evening, two of the five German sub
marine boats which attacked and sank
bottom by the British warships. Three
submarines escaped.
Sunk by Unseen Foes.
The correspondent of the Handels.
blad interviewed at Ymuiden, Holland,
one of the survivors of the battle be.
tween the German submarines and the
British cruisers in the North sea.
1--WE were navigating with the cruis-
ers in the North sea in beautiful
weather." the survivor is reported as
saying. This morning at 6 o'clock
the Aboukir was hit in several places
and disappeared within five minutes.
"The other men of war thought the
Aboukir had struck a mine, as no hos
tile ships could be seen. They lower
ed their boats. A few minutes later
the Hogue was hit and sank. In a
short time the Cressy also was torpe-
decd and sank at about 8 o'clock"
Probably 700 Saved.
1t is computed that 700 men from
the British cruisers Aboukir, Cressy
and Hogue were saved, says a Har-
witch (England) dispatch. Thirty un-
injured officers, survivors of the three
sunken warships, have arrived at Har-
wich. They had been rescued from
the water and wore improvised cloth
ing. Eighty other survivors were also
landed at Parkeston quay, three miles
west of Harwich.
Armored Cruisers, Old Type.
The Cressy, Captain Robert w.
Johnson; the Aboukir, Captain John E.
Drummond, and tn Hogue, Captain
Wilmont S. Nicholson, were sister
ships. They were armored cruisers of
a comparatively obsolete type.
These three cruisers had ornaments
consisting of two 9.2-inch guns, IL six
inch guns, ~ 12-pounders and five
three-pounders. The Aboukir and the
Cressy were built at Govan in 1900
and the Hogue was built at Barrow
the same year.
Nays Heaviest Blow.
The diseruction of the three cruis-
ers was the severest loss the Bditish
navy has sustained during the war.
British cruisers and torpedo boats
came quickly to the assistance of the
doomed vessels.
The three cruisers carried more than
1000 men. The fate of the cruiser
Pathfinder, sunk recently in the North
sea by a torpedo, proved how quickly
a ship may be sent to the bottom by
an underwater attack, and it is there
fore believed that the loss of life is
bound to be heavy.
