Bradstreet's Report

New York, Dec. 9.--Bradstreet's to-
morrow will say:
The outstanding features in the
trade reports this week are the signs
of increased activity in retail trade.
due to the stimulus of holiday buying
the country over and the recurrence
of seasonal weather in northern, east
crn and western areas, against wiiIcn
is to be noted a further seasonal quiet
ing down of business of jobbers and
wholesalers who, approaching the in
ventory period. are indisposed to as
sumo new commitments pending this.
Even In the matter OF retail buying,
however. there are Irregularities yisi-
BILE, large department stores advertise
ing freely finding distribution better
than do small retailers in general who
return rather less satisfactory reports

Two starch factories are still going
in Fort Fairfield-those of the Good
win Starch Company and Charles S.
Osborne. The regular price they pay
for potatoes is so cents barrel, not
40 cents, as some papers recently
stated. Each factory Is running on
about half time, with a small crew.
II some snow should come and peo-
pie begin to haul their potatoes to
market, these factories might per-
haps run all winter, but, under con-
ditions az at present. they may not
do so. The potatoes they get are
mostly scabby ones, only a few of
them being brought in because they
are too small or too big for the mar
ket.-Fort Fairfield Review.
