are about exhausted, although there
are some available at the former quo
tation of $6@6.25
Other Fruits-The supply of grapes
is getting rather short, owing to the
end of the season, but Emperor, To
kay and Cornishon are in fairly good
supply, with few Muscats still avail
able. Grapefruit is a little easier at
$6@6.25 per case, and lemons still hold
at $3.50 for fancy and s4@4.25 for
choice.
Potatoes-The local spud market
has firmed up some during the week
and jobbing prices are now named at
81 per cwt. Sweets still maintain the
quotation noted last week of $1.75@2.
Other Vegetables-Caulif has
declined several points at $1.75 per
dozen, while California tomatoes are
firmer at $1.75. Eggplant is easier at
81 per crate and green beans are in
the market and jobbing at 10c per
pound.
Wheat-There has been practically
no new developments in the wheat
market during the week. Quotations
are on about the same basis as last
report, the figures at the moment
showing an advance of lie per bushel,
which makes the quotations sac for
bluestem, s012c for club and use for
red Russian.
Flour-The situation in the flour
trade remains at about the same level
as for some time, although there are
still predictions for further declines
Feed-The only change as to prices
is the notation of a reduction of 81
on bran and shorts, making the figure
$23 per ton. AS to supplies, they are
adequate for requirements and there
is fair business passing, and with
the approach of winter weather il
should show considerable improve
ment.

SPOKANE WEEKLY REPORT.

Improvement is shown in the bust
ness situation, reflected to some ex-
tent in the steady expansion in pro-
ductive and distributive operations,
but more generally, as for some time,
in betterment that features a large
proportion of the east and central west
is gradually exerting it's efforts upon
the Pacific Coast.
The grain movement is still imped-
ed to some extent by lack of ton
mage, but reports from the interior
and from Portland indicate that there
will be a considerable diversion of
wheat to eastern seaboard cities in an
effort to relieve the situation. The
-four export situation is stationary, UNI
satisfactory by comparison with pre-
vious seasons, although some mills
are operating at capacity.
Butter-Market is still holding at
IN W h a t unsatisfactory position
from the standpoint Of shippers and
handlers. Demands seem to be slight
ly below normal, while supplies are
adequate and former rulings of 800
SAC maintain.
Cheese-There is a growing short
age of cheese stocks of top seasonal
BILE makes, and triplets are jobbing at
1870. Some Idaho cheese is still
available at 1615c, but the general
market situation is a strong one.
Eggs-The egg market is in that
uncertain state that is characteristic
of the season. The week has brought
no further advance on fresh ranch
stocks, which are still jobbing at
$10.50@12. Storage eggs are also NOV
ing freely, the price still holding at
$4,000.
Poultry-There has been no change
in the poultry market within the week
as to prices. Supplies are coming in
freely and demands have shown some
life during the week, but with the
nearer approach of Thanksgiving bust.
ness is expected to increase rapidly.
Fresh Meats-Trade shows very lit
tie change, holding somewhat disap
pointing in some respects. Prices are
maintained steadily, and pork, which
has shown some weakness recently
appears to be rather firmer.
Lard and Cured Meats-There has
been no change in the local market
as to prices for hams and bacon, and
the situation appears to be firm one
Lard still maintains the level to which
it was advanced a few weeks ago.
Hides and Wool-Quotation OF
hides and wool that have prevailed
for some time still prevail. The WOO
market is still strong one, and hides
| show a rather fuctuating tendency
Apples-The apple to market quo
tations, fancy stocks are noted al
slightly firmer at $1.25@2.25 per box
while cookers still maintain the SAM
level as last week at S5c@$1.

The simple idea that makes the in
ventor successful is illustrated by a
new vest pocket screwdriver capable
of fitting screws of any size. 1t is
nothing but a disk of metal about the
size of a large coin. The edge of the
disk is put into the slot of a screw
like the blade of an ordinary screw
driver. One edge is thin, for small
screws, and another is thick. with a
graduated thickness between the two
extremes for the purpose Of having an
edge that will ut any slot.
A hole in the middle of the disk
gives a chance to slip In a nail or
pocket knife, or anything else handy
to be used as lever on tight screws

STATION FOR
 MATANUSKA
AGENT FOR AGRICULTURAL DE- APARTMENT HERE ON WAY
 TO LOCATE TT.

M. D. Snodgrass, agent for the agri- culture department and manager of the experiment station at Kodiak, ar rived on the Watson on the way to Matanuska to locate the experiment station which, as was stated by Pro- lessor Georgeson, is about to be estab- Hshed in that quarter. Mr. Snodgrass will spend three weeks on the ground and will secure horses from the engin- eering commission to reach the Mata- nuska and Susitna valleys. He in tends to examine the conditions thoroughly and later give his report. He declares that, without doubt, Kodiak and the neighborhood is a good stock country. Lots of cattle and sheep run out all winter on the smaller islands and come out well m spring. He has found a growing in- terest manifested in the possibilities of the district and is constantly re- ceiviug enquiries from outside. Two new settlers came to Uyak bay this year and more will follow the railroad activities. One great drawback to the raising of sheep and cattle in the region, Mir. Snodgrass says, is the de- predation by brown bears. In one night, alone they killed two-thirds of all the sheep at the station and they keep killing still.

FOURTH AVENUE
 MUST WAIT YET
MUNICIPAL PARLIAMENT PASS ES A LAW THAT CANNOT
 PASS SUPREME COURT.

A petition is again being circulated by the business men of Fourth Avenue to have the street improved. This sounds like a quotation from ancient history but it is real up-to-date news. The new petition has been found necessary as it has been learned that the municipal parliament decided up- on the improvement and passed the ordinance providing for it before the matter had been adjusted Since the meeting last Monday, in other words, it has been discovered that the amount of property represented on the former petition was not the necessary two thirds. The council first built its house and then learned that it had no foundation. These facts are mention ed here without charging the regular advertising rates asked by the Gate way for the publication of ordinances. It now learns for the first time that the decision to post ordinances instead of paying for their publication is the wisest step taken by the local chamber of deputies as most of the ordinances may have to be passed and made pub lie all over again if present indications mean anything.
 We'll, to tell the whole great history of the latest brilliant scintillatiOn;- The first petition to improve the streets was circulated between April 12 and IT. It was presented to the council and referred to the street com mittee, whose chairman is Charles Crawford, and on April 26 the city at torney reported that the necessary property was represented. Then the engineer went to work and reported that the total cost would be twelve thousand dollars odd. The council at it's meeting last Monday decided to go at the work after giving the property holders the necessary ten days notice, and then, sad is the task to speak, 1t was learned, just about month after it was stated that two thirds of the property holders had signed the peti- ton, that two thirds of the property holders had done nary sich thing And now the whole matter will have to be done over again. It has been suggested that the great delay in dis covering the error might have a pur- pose but, seriously, this suggestion should not be entertained. The fact is that the big four volleyed and thund- cred and blundered. It is not too late, however, to improve the street. The people responsible for the blunder might yet put their heads together and make a block pavement.
