The Cheney Union Warehouse COM
pany of Cheney, Wash, has let con-
tract for the first unit of grain ele-
vator. 1t will consist of four steel
stanks, of 10000 bushels capacity
each, and will be equipped with
dump, scales, automatic scales and
cleaning machinery.
Men are engaged in rebuilding the
Asotin Roller mills at Asotin, Wash,
and installing machinery Of greater
capacity. The present output of the
mill is so barrels day, but the fu-
ture output will be about 1875 barrels
a day. Among other things the roof
has been raised one story, making it
a four-story instead of three. The
grain bins have been enlarged to
twice their former capacity.
A preliminary estimate of the win
ter wheat crop places the production
at 455,OO0,000 bushels, and that of
spring wheat at 6,o00,ooo.- The pros
pective spring wheat crop is the
smallest in % years and 2oo,ooo,ooo
bushels less than harvested last
year. The total wheat crop is placed
at Gil 100000 bushels, which is 400,-
100000 bushels less than last years
mountaineering crop of 1,021, 100000
bushels. The combined winter and
spring wheat crop is the smallest
since 1900 and the acre yield the low
est in 90 years.

values were somewhat higher. Re-
ceipts were light and demand con-
tinued active.
Other Vegetables-Yakima onions
are holding at $1.75, with California
dry onions at So. Local beets, car
rots and turnips are jobbing at $3.50
o.. Cabbage is plentiful at $3.50
and celery is on the market showing
fine quality at Coo per dozen. Toma-
toes are firmer at 75c, while green
peppers are off at 4Oc. Pumpkin has
also dropped, being quoted at 81.
Grain, Flour and Feed.
Wheat-While quotations on wheat
are held at nominally the top range
previously established, the actual sit
uation by recent stacking off in spec
ulative activities. Last week the Chi
cago market scored record advance
of 14c on the strength of settlement
in the railway strike situation and
developments in the Balkan war sit
uation, but this advance has not been
we'll maintained, and the level there
is high above the coast parity in
values. There is very little business
passing locally, although some buy
ing is maintained by the mills and a
little coastwise shipping is going for
ward. There are no charters report
ed for foreign exports, and with rates
nominally held around $50 shillings,
there is no prospect of immediate
business in that direction, but at the
moment there is lull in this bust
ness, which is interfered with to
some extent because of difficulties in
securing prompt deliveries. Quota
tions at the moment are: Bluestem,
$1.22; club, $1.15, and red Russian,
$1.14.
Flour-Market is held strong in
sympathy with the position Of wheat
values, and in some instances local
patents are jobbing zoe higher, with
a firm undertone. Export business is
still quiet, with not much business
being booked for the orient, although
some wheat is still going to West
Coast ports.
Feed-Prices held firm all along
the line, with an advance of So on
feed wheat, making the quotation $44.

MARKET AT SPOKANE.

The high prices ruling for agricul-
tural productions is fully offsetting the
lessening of the crop in some direc-
lions. Wheat is still commanding the
big premium over last years prices
that the smaller harvest and European
complications induced. Fruits are
bringing better prices and with an ex-
cellent distributive demand. The ex-
pansion in dairy output has been a
feature of the seasons operations,
while the canning interest has made
further satisfactory progress.
A larger cargo demand, with better
deliveries, has improved conditions in
the lumber market,
Provisions.
Butter-Market is fairly firm, but
with no further change in price. De.
mand has been holding up we'll, and
receipts have been fairly maintained,
although pasturage has been depleted
to considerable extent by the lessened
moisture.
Eggs-Market is some firmer than
last week, with the storage products
moving more freely Quotations this
week are $500 to the producers for
fresh ranch and $1,000 wholesale, with
storage selling at $1,000.
Dressed Meats-Dressed meats are
ruling trifle easier. Beef prices are
off ne at lie per pound, while better
supplies are available in the cattle
market. Hogs have eased off moder-
ately from top rulings, while mutton
is maintained at former level.
Lard and Cured Meats-The feature
Of the situation in hog products has
been the advance in lard to the highest
point touched in recent years. The
tierce price is now at the 15c mark,
with firm undertone. Meats are also
sustained by conditions in the hog
market, and there have been further
advances in hams and bacon of some
note.
Fruits and Vegetables.
Apples Apples have. been coming
forward in larger variety, and some
fancy Yakima Gravensteins have been
selling up to $3.50, with an abund-
ance of cooking apples ranging at
65c@$1. W.
Peaches--With the advent of the
peach canning season, and increasing
supplies of seasonable fruits, there
has been an active business in this
line. Peaches have been selling down
to 55c in quantities during the past
few days, and the top Of the season
is about over Next week will see
the finish of Elbertas and Crawfords,
but other varieties will be in mar
ket for some time.
Other Fruits - Catalogues have
been plentiful and selling at 75c per
crate, while there has been some
thing Of a glut in watermelons, which
are selling at &c per pound. Cas-
.sabas are held at III. Pears are sell
ing at $1.25 for local Bartletts. Ma
laga grapes are jobbing at $1.25, with
Tokays at $3.50. Blackberries hold
at $3.50 per crate, and huckleberries
at &c per pound. Lemons are a lit
tie easier at S. for fancy and $500
$7.75 for choice.
Potatoes-Spuds are in good local
supply and the market is easy at $25
per ton. Sweet potatoes hold rather
high at So per cwt. There was
good tone to the Chicago market and

Hair Often Ruined
BY Washing With Soap

Soap should be used very carefully,
If you want to keep your hair looking
it's best Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkali. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle,
and ruins 1t.
The best thing for steady use is just
ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil (Which
is pure and greaseless), and is better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else YOU can use.
One or two teaspoonfulG viu cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Sim
ply moisten the hair with water and
rub it in. 1t. makes an abundance of
rich. creamy lather. which rinses out
easily, removing every particle CT aHs',
dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The
hair dries quickly and evenly, and it
leaves the scalp soft, and the hair fine
and silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and
easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil at
any pharmacy. its very cheap, and
few ounces will supply every member
of the family for months.

Millions Worth Wasted.

Des Moines. June 22.--Iowa wastes
s4,l60 900 worth of hay on its highways
every year, according to A. E. Minetor,
prominent local attorney. He said:
The average country road in Iowa is
thirty feet wide. We will deduct twelve
feet constantly traleved, on which no
vegetation grows. That leaves eighteen
feet Of hay land. Upon that basis there
are a fraction over two acres to each
mile of road. Two tons Of hay to an
acre is a conservative estimate of the
yield. That means four tons Of hay to
the mile There are 10000 miles Of
country roads in Iowa which annually
produce $4,000 tons Of nay. At SO 4
