Naming a plant or flower after .
celebrity Is a delicate compliment, and
one that no doubt at times adds some
thing to the market value. But there
are exceptions. That beautiful variety

Mercantile
Agency Reports

Cheerful reports regarding trade
during the past week are reflected in
the announcement Of the leading mer-
camille agencies. "Dun's Review" states
that discordant notes in business are
fainter, and are being replaced by
clearer expression Of optimism regard
ing the future. "Bradstreet's" tells of
more activity in industry, good trade,
strong demand for American products
for export, good collections and better
weather for crops.
According to the "Dry Goods Econ
omist" excellent reports are coming in
daily from retail dealers in all sections
of the country. These reports indicate
that the volume Of spring business to
date is from S5 to 40 per cent greater
than at this time last year. The vol
ume of business has beensurprisingly
large in view of the tendency in agri-
cultural sections to defer purchasing
in late spring until the condition of
the growing crops is definitely determ-
ined.
Reports to the Credit Clearing House,
which are based on moro than 10000
separate transactions totalline over
$10,000,000, indicate that payments
throughout the United States last week
increased IL per cent over the preced-
ing week, while Purchases decreased
one half of / per cent and indebted
ness small fraction Of l per cent.

Cotton

Advances Of 40 to 81 points were
made in the cotton market yesterday.
The opening was to 81 points higher
on news that Liverpool prices were up
35 points, and further gains occurred
on fresh news of bright prospects for
world trade.
There is marked strength in the tex
tile markets, both at home and abroad.
Foreign agents here are buying goods
for the earliest possible delivery, and
mills are buying spot cotton to fill the
orders. Sales of spot cotton in the
Southern markets and at Liverpool
have been unusually large. Activity
a. Liverpool is partly accounted for
by the big exports of cloths and yarns
which have been made from Manches-
ter. Buying of cotton by foreign in
deliveries, it is said, because it is diff
cult to tell when tonnage will be avail
able.
AS indicating the shortage of sup
plies in the Far East, it is stated that
stocks of European gray shirtings in
Shanghai on the first Of the year were
only 285,476 pieces, as against 525,147
year before, 412,633 two years ago,
l,l9l JAP three years ago, and 1885,
874 four years ago.
Sales in the Southern spot markets
yesterday included 3,911 bales at New
Orleans and 1,075 at Mobile. Exports
from all ports jumped to 1926 bales.
In the local market spot middling was
quoted at So.05, an advance Of 80 points.

THE MILK ORDINANCE

Milk men. furnishing very large
part Of the milk which Is sold in the
city Of Wheeling. express alarm at the
disposition to tamper with and change
the present health ordinance That or
dinance requires that all milk sold in
the city shall be either tuberculin
tested or pasteurized- Some members
Of council seem to think that all milk
should be tuberculin tested. This means
that the herds from which the milk is
produced have been tested for tubcr-
culosis, and all cattle found to be in
fected have been killed. On the other
hand, the pastcurizing process, prop
erly done, absolutely destroys tubercu-
lar germs and renders milk, even from
tubercular herds, safe for use. Milk
producers claim that strict enforce
ment Of the law that all herds must be
tuberculin tested would 80 cut down the
supply Of milk available for this market
that many customers could not be serv-
ed at all. and those served would be
necessarily charged cxorbitant prices
II the pastcurizing process does rem
der all milk harmless. it seems to The
Intelligencer that the sensible thing to
do would be to leave the health ordi-
nance as it now Is. Certainly. there
should be some health test Of the milk
that is sold TO our people, but that
health test should not go beyond the
point Of assuring that milk Is safe 1t
should not he carried to such an ex-
treme that the milk supply would be cut
down and get the price made burden
some. If pasteuaDIiion is complete
protection. rs it is now claimed. pas
teurization should be enough.
