THE SPOKANE MARKET.

There seems to be quite a general
confidence in the trade and financial
situation and collections are rather |
good, considering the large amount
of wheat held. Mining operations
continue to expand and reap the ben
efits of the European war. and the
lumber industry, which has been hold
ing at rather restricted levels for a
long time, gives indications OF getting
on better footing.
Butter-Although the market has
stiffened for butter In some quarters,
locally the price has not as yet
changed, but there is a firm under
tone to the situation, and it seems
only a question of time until there
will be an advance.
Eggs-The long-expected advance in
the egg market was put into effect
during the week with quotations at
So to the producers, 50 wholesale
and $7.750s.50 for storage.
Apples-Further enlargement in the
variety of arrivals have been noted
in the apple market within the week,
but there has been no change as to
prices, the prevailing figures being
$1.25@1.50 for fancy and 75c@$1.25
for cooking.
Other Fruits-Oranges are slightly
weaker at $4,000, and ounces are
off CSC at $1.50@1.75. In the line Of
grapes, Concords are down to Csc,
Malagas SLIPS, Muscats $1@1.40, To
kays $125@1.4O, while Sweetwater
and Seedless are off the market.
Huckleberries are up 1 cent at &c,
and peaches are also firmer at 500
6Oc Watermelons are cleaning up at
i &c per pound, and new crop figs are
in and quoting at s0@95c for IL 10
OF. bricks and 9Oc@$1 for layer in
10-lb. boxes.
Potatoes-Local Irish spuds are a
little firmer at 90c, while the Yah
mas remain at 81. Sweets are a lit
tie easier at $2@250.
j Wheat-With a continuation of the
: movement in wheat noted last week
, during the interim and other favor
, able conditions in the trade, quota

since last report, and bluestem IL

BUSINESS OUTLOOK
GETTING BRIGHTER
Short Review Of Trade During Past
Few Months Shows I'M
provement.

Revival in trade and industry is an
actuality, rather than an anticipated
development at the present time. The
public is buying more merchandise,
following long period of conserva-
tism in this respect.
While part of this improvement is
to be attributed to the natural devel-
opments incident to the advent of the
fall trading season, and the approach
of the holidays, there is much more
than the usual transition to afford
encouragement to the belief that
business and industry has struck the
upgrade in this country. The album
dance of our staple productions is a
factor that stands over against the
prospect Of want. The United States
has added to its material wealth in
larger measure than in any period of
it's history. We are meeting excep-
tional demands for supplying the de-
ficiency in output from nations whose
activities have been demoralized by
war. Our exports have expanded to
new record marks, and the balance
of trade in our favor is being accen-
tuated enormously. We are loaning
England and France an enormous
sum Of money, but it will be utilized
to buy the products Of our farms aid
factories-to help make business bet
ter. We are rapidly wiping out our
debts abroad, keeping future interest
disbursements at home, and at the
same time augmenting our actual
stock of money.
These are conditions that make for
good times. The pendulum Is swing.
ing in that direction. The enlarging
volume of business is making demand
for increased facilities. Already many
branches of industry have increased
their productive capacity. The influ
ence is extending to others. The
railroads are being called upon to
transport more freight. They are
compelled to build more cars and i'm
prove their trackage to meet the con
ditions. With iron and steel at high
prices, larger requisition will be made

Newport News.-"I, myself, will not intern"
 This was the emphatic declaration of Lieut. Capt Thierfelder, commander of the German converted cruiser kron- prinz Wilhelm, when informed ty newspaper men that it generally was reported the Wilhelm ultimately would intern at this port
 It was rumored that Commander Thierichens of the Prinz Eitel Fried rich had taken a similar stand, but his government had ordered the Eitel i.l- termed. Commander Thierfelder made no reference to the probable action of tine German government with regard to the disposition to be made of tue Kronprinz Wilhelm.
 Authorization to take the cruiser Ill., to drydock was given to Commander Thierfelder in two letters from Collec- tor of Customs Hamilton in reply to the captains communications of April 13, in which he asked time to make the Wilhelm seaworthy.
 The commerce destroyer will be re moved from her anchorage into dry dock, it was learned. Only the largest ot the drydocks at the shipyard can ac- commodate her and that is occupied at present.
 The condition of the cruiser and her boilers is such that it will require three weeks to complete the repairs She is in need of boiler tubes, which must be manufactured elsewhere. To procure and install these tubes, it was stated, would require at least three weeks The boiler tubes were men, toned in the commanders official com munication to Washington.

TREATING HOGS FOR CHOLERA
Summary of Results Obtained From Use of Serum Are interesting
 as We'll as Valuable.

By GEORGE H. GLOVER. Colorado Ex-
 pertinent Station)
 In a recent report of the chief of the bureau of animal industry, sum- mary of the results obtained from tho use of serum are interesting and valu- able as indicating the usefulness of serum in infected herds.
 Of 16,152 hogs, where 70 per cent were sick with cholera and the serum was given to all of them, only 243 per cent died. Without the serum a loss of 75 per cent might have been expected. The value of the serum as cure Is apparent. In 11,776 hogs that were we'll when given the serum but kept in herds with sick hogs, there was. a loss of 2.9 per cent, while in total of 13,57S hogs that were healthy, then given the serum, and later ex- posed to cholera, there was loss of only little over one-half of one per cent.
 In the record kept by the Colorado Agriculture college, we find that in the San Luis valley, where hogs were not given the serum until the disease appeared. there was a loss of about 22 per cent.
