U. s. Salt consum ptIon.

Salt consumed in the United States
amounted to 1895, 520,560 pounds dur
ing 1914, an increase of 41,575,s00
pounds over that consumed in 1918.
That amount, announced by the geo.
logical survey, would mean a per cap
ita consumption of almost 100 pounds
for the year. Sugars per capita con-
sumption during 1914 was S9.14
pounds.
Salt production in the United
States was 9,736,911, 100 pounds, and
imports were 261 ,609,320 pounds dur
ing 1914. That produced in this coun
try was valued at $1O,271,3 1853. Pro
duction was greater than in 1918
keeping pace with the increase of pop
ulation.
There has been a steady downward
trend in the cost of salt owing to the
abundant sources of supply and also
the great advance made in the las
few decades in methods of manufac
ture.

STOCK AND CROP NOTES.

The first carload of crabapples
shipped from the Wenatchee district
last week by G. l.. Longwell, IocaI
representative of the Randolph Fruit
Co., sold for $1.25 I. o. b. Wenatchee.
A North Yakima produce firm is
preparing to ship a ton of potatoes to
an Oregon buyer by parcel post. The
consignee lives in the interior of the
state and stage rates are several
times the postal rates.
The Northwestern peach crop will
total at least 1900 cars, according to
B. A. Perham, sales manager of the
North Pacific Fruit Distributors, and
it will practically all be marketed
west of Kansas City and Minneapolis.
Almost every apple dealer in the
Wenatchee valley has received tele-
graphic advices since the close of the
International Apple Shippers associa.
of stiffening apple prices as the re
suit of careful analysis of the ap.
pie production in the United States
and of the improved financial condi
tions. From the estimates made by
the dealers, the 1918 apple crop VIII
be from one-third to half less than
last year.
In final report on the cotton croI
of 1914-15, Secretary Hester of the
New Orleans cotton exchange shows
that while 100000 bales were
grown, the commercial crop was onl,
l5,10s,111 bales. The crops value, in
Guiding seed, was $749, ,97s, agains
1,134 ,444,114 for the preceding crop
How much of the decreased value wa!
due to the war and how much to thu
record production is a matter of con
siderable difference of opinion. TIL,
crop was remarkably even in grade
averaging middling, without a super
abundance of either higher or lowe
grades. Middling averaged 7.94 cent
a pound, against 13.49 during the pre-
ceding year.

THE SPOKANE MARKET.

There is little of change in business
or industrial conditions, rather a
marking of time until the opening of
the fall demands. Trade is about the
same volume as was the case year
ago, in some lines rather better, but
on the whole, holding close to the
August level. Retailers are pushing
clearance sales, for the closing out OF
summer stocks, in measure retard-
ing business in staple lines.
Provisions.
Butter-There is still an adequate
supply of butter to meet all the re-
quirements of the trade, and bust,
ness is only fair, while prices con
tinue to hold unchanged at around
27@3Oc for Washington n m
stocks.
Cheese-A fair business is pass
ing, but supplies are coming to hand
freely, and market holds at about
previous levels.
Eggs-The egg market is unset
tied, owing to the receipt of many
shipments that are not to be graded
as strictly fancy. A considerable
range of prices is thus created, with
sales down to csc, and ranging up tt
30c for strictly fresh ranch.
Poultry There has been M
changes in the poultry market with
in the week as to prices. Receipts
have been somewhat restricted ow
| ing to the harvest season and de
mands are also curtailed by reason
of the camping season, which take
the people from the city.
Fresh Meats-There is not mucl
change in the meat situation, witt
veal still holding around 13@14c
beef 10@11c, pork 1919 @15c and NUT
ton 12@13e.

remains at the same figure as last
week, 10c.
Fruits and Vegetables.
Apples-Local cooking apples are
marketing at ST. per box, with other
grades bringing up to $1.50. There
was a good demand at Chicago for
large, good, clear apples of all va
rieties, but this class was very
scarce. Receipts continued mainly

lar prices. Prices ruled about the

Berries-Black and dewberries are
cleaning up at $3.50 per crate and To-
ganberries have been superseded by
huckleberries, which are jobbing at
rose per pound.
Other Fruits-Valencia oranges are

is noted on pears at 75c@$1.25, while
peaches and plums are unchanged
| Catalogues are easier at $4,000, as
is also watermelons at 11ac per
pound. Washington Concord grapes
are in the market and jobbing at 45c
per basket, while Sweetwaters are
quoted at 75c@$1 per crate.
Potatoes - The spud market is
largely supplied from local sources
and selling around $1@1.10 per cwt
The potato market at Chicago was
in somewhat more satisfactory con
dition and more life was noticeable
in the trading. Bulk stock was quot
able at 43@50c.
Other Vegetables-Onions are dowr
to 75c per sack and cabbage is of
fered at 81. Sacked vegetables are
easier, with turnips, beets and car
rots quoting at $1.25 per cwt.
Grain, Flour and Feed.

Clearwater Republican. [volume] (Orofino, Idaho) 1912-1922, 1915-08-20

There is no tangible reason why
business should not show a marked
and satisfactory Improvement this
fall. The only possible preventative
will be such an attitude of conserva-
tism and lack of confidence ON the
part of the people as will work against
the proper utilization of the advan-
tages which are presented for marked
termination in every branch Of activ-
ity. Help to Danish the long faces
and extinguish the doleful wall OF the
fearful. and you will be doing an act

PROVERBS THAT ARE VICIOUS
There 10 Usually Trouble for Some
body When One Of These is
Quoted.

There are some proverbs that are
used only to bolster unworthy thoughts
or words or actions. Here is one Of
them; Charity begins at home. OF
course it does, but no one says that
to himself, or says it out loud, who
does not wis., 20 excuse some mean
and parsimonious action, the Chris
tian Endeavor World states. Every
really generous man will of course be-
gin his charities at home; but he will
never think of mentioning the fact as
reason for not giving and doing all
that he can for people and causes out
side his home
Business is business. To be sure it
is, but no one deems IL necessary to
state that fact unless he is doing or
intends to do some hard, cold and un-
feeling thing. When cruel landlord
intends to turn a widow and her fam
lily into the street. he is very likely
to remark as he proceeds to do 1t.

We must play the game. This
though sometimes used in a good
sense, often means in business par
lance that we must be as mean and
sharp and untrustworthy as other bad
men. They are playing the game;
and. If we would not lose, we must
play 1t, too. They have no conscience
in financial transactions; so we must
smother ours. They bow down to the
money god; so must we, or we shall
get left in the dollar race.
