BULL MAKES DANGEROUS PET
Should Never ee Trusted So Far as to
Get Advantage Of Attendant
Exercise ls Essential.

The practice of permitting a bull to
nun with the dairy cows cannot pos
sibly be commended, especially Is
this true during the breeding season;
and with the dairyman who is milking
q large number of cows and has a con-
slant demand for milk, this means
practically the entire time. A bull
kept in a small paddock where he
gets plenty of exercise, pure water
and food rich in bone and muscle

BEWARE OF THE QUIET BULL
Easy to Spoil Disposition Of Animal
by Allowing Children to Tease
Him-Make Him Obey.

Never permit the bull to have his
own way about anything where you
may differ with him, and insist upon
prompt obedience.
1t Is very easy to spoil the DISPOSE
ton of bull by permitting children
old as well as young, to play with him
or tease him. The man who is al.
ways prepared for trouble never has
any
1t is the quiet bull that has never
horned anything that usually does the
damage, suddenly developing vicious
spirit and attacking his unsuspecting
attendants.

Chicago.-The Illinois supreme court
Monday upheld an injunction stopping
the payment of the salaries of los
state employees, totaling $262,348.
The court also held that appropria-
tions for committees to sit after the
adjournment of the legislature were
illegal
The decision, which resulted from a
taxpayers suit attacking an omnibus
salary bill passed by the last legisla-
ture, was handed down on technical
grounds. The court declared the sal.
airy items were in the wrong bill, and
should have been carried in the state
officers salary bill.
An appropriation of $2500 for tele.
phone calls by lawmakers is held in.
valid because the constitution express
ly limits the amount to be allowed to
each member of the assembly for all
incidental expenses to $50.
The court held to be invalid the gov.

Consul Dennison writes from Dun
dee, Scotland, that the final official
forecast of the current Indian jute
crop places the area under cultivation
at 2,377 acres, with an estimated out
run Of 7,428,733 bales of 400 pounds
each. The forecast shows a decrease
in area of 972,121 acres, or nearly 80
per cent, from last year, while the es-
timated output is over 100000 bales
short of the previous crop. The pre-
ceding years acreage had been the
second largest in the history of the
jute crop, while that for the current
year is the smallest since 1908. The
crop would be insufficient for the

Conditions continue to show grad
ual, If not rapid improvement. Such
changes as are indicated in the indus
trial and commercial situation are in
the direction of betterment, and when
comparisons are made with the same
period of last year the showing is
quite generally favorable.
The actual demand for lumber has
been holding good. The improvement
in prices is reflected rather more tan
gibly in the tendency to adhere more
nearly to lists than in any change in
quotations. Movement Of wheat still
holds at a restricted level, consider
ing interior holdings, and the diff
Guilty in securing tonnage accommoda-
tons tends to give the situation an
unusual aspect, much of the export
operations being carried forward in
regular liners. There has been little
change in the price situation, although
quotations are maintained, and a trifle
firmer than heretofore.
Butter-Market holds steady, with
supplies fairly we'll sustained, and de.
mand normal at around 3O@33c for
Washington creamery.
Cheese = Accumulated firmness is
evidenced in the cheese situation, with
scarcity in a number of staple lines
while several brands have shown ad.
vances during the week. Brick cheese
Is quoting up to 21c, with triplets firm
at 1Shc.
Eggs-There has not been much
change in the local egg market. Sup
plies Of fresh are still hard to get and
the price holds firm around S1O.50@
IL wholesale. Storage stocks are
moving fairly well, but should the
shortage in fresh continue, stocks may
be curtailed to considerable extent
Fresh Meats-Demand has shown a
rather fair movement of late. The
market is steady on most all lines, al
though pork shows some fluctuations
Poultry-With abundant supplies
coming to hand, the market is in
clined to be rather weak in all lines
with the exception of turkeys. Live
weight prices to the producers are:
Hens DC, chickens 12c, roosters SC
ducks SC and turkeys 22c.
Cured Meats-There has been nc
change in the situation, prices holding
steady at the recent advances.
Apples-The local apple market is
in good shape with the exception OF
Jonathans, on which the supply seems
to have been somewhat overesti
mated. With the near approach OF
the apple show, this fruit is attract

ing little more attention. AS to
prices, fancy still hold at $1.25@2,
with cookers 75c to 81.
Other Fruits-Fancy lemons are a
little easier at $3.50. while choice
stocks still rule at $4@425. Oranges
are a little firmer at $6@6.25, as are
also tokay grapes at $1.35 al so. Gran
berries have shown no change, hold
ing at S9.50@10, with demand pick
ing up some in anticipation of the
Thanksgiving trade. Pears are still
selling at $1.5o, and Florida grape
fruit will be in market next week to
job at $3.50 per case.
Potatoes-The demand for spuds Is
confined almost entirely to local dis
tributive channels, the call for ship
ping orders being almost nothing.
Estimates on the crop from local sec
tons places supplies at about half
of that of last year. AS to prices,
locals are still quoted at 90c, with
Yakimas at ST. Sweets are little
easier at $1.75@2.
Other Vegetables-Celery has ad-
vanced at the top at 60090c, and dry
onions are firmer at SLIPS. dollhouse
lettuce is a little easier at COO per
box. In the line of root vegetables,
turnips, beets, rutabagas and carrots
are easier, with the quotation on the
first three at $1.15@1.25 and the lat
ter 9oc@$1. Eggplant is firmer at
$3.50 per crate, and ground cherries
are out of the market.
Wheat-There has been number of
fluctuations in the wheat market dur.
ing the week, but no radical changes
the undertone to the market has been
rather firm. Sales have been limited
in fact, very little wheat has changed
hands during the interim. AS to
prices, the market at the moment
shows a slight advance over last
week, the quotations being SIC fol
bluestem, soc for club and 7Sc fol
red Russian.
Flour-The market is holding rath
er quiet, although some business Is
passing all the time, but with the
unsettled condition of the market the
trade is inclined to buy only for i'm
mediate requirements. A decline Of
Csc per barrel is noted in the mar
ket this week, making the price fol
patents $5.25 and seconds IS.
Feed-There has been no change
in this department, as to prices dur
ing the week, and business Is abou
of seasonable nature.
