SPOKANE WEEKLY REPORT.

There are no radical changes in
trade conditions. The backward spring
has proven a detriment to progress
in some directions. Severe frosts
have worked considerable damage to
the fruit crop all over the Pacific
Northwest. Peaches and pears are
badly injured, and canning operations
will undoubtedly be curtailed. Losses
to apple growers are probably over
estimated, as the freeze will serve
the purpose of thinning out the fruit,
a necessary process to insure the best
results.
Eggs are now higher than at this
time last year, due to scarcity, and
indications are that both butter and
eggs will see higher prices this fall
and winter than in several years.
Sugar-Sugar has touched the ss4c
level. This commodity is now fully
&c over the normal and approximately
double the low price of periods OF de-
pressed values. How long such a
Provisions.
Butter-There has been no change
in the local butter market as to
prices, but the undertone OF the sit
uation is strong. New York market
firm and higher, with some scarcity
of creamery stock. Chicago reports
heavy receipts but market steady.

m OLD FURNITURE SECRET

The old established house of Tobey

furniture, uses a secret shop formula
for cleaning and identifying the rich
finishes of an furniture they make.
This formula IL now offered to the
world Ia the form of Tobey Polish.
already 1t is being used in the finer,
homes throughout the country. 1t is
more than q furniture polish. 1t re-
stores the original finish by removing
ali dirt and blemishes. Cleans off dirt
and grease much more easily than soap
and water. Wipes off dry. Leaves no
oily film or veneer. Does not dry or
crack the finest finish, but renews the
elasticity of the varnish.
Further advantages are the ease and
speed with which it works. Results are
instantaneous. No hard work, no hard
rubbing. After the furniture and wood
work have been cleaned with Tobey
