Bradstreet's Report
New York, Aug. 14.-Bradstreet'

New York. Aug. 14.-Bradstreet's to-
morrow will say:
While buying everywhere is conserv-
alive and no great surge forward is in
evident, there is none the less visible
a disposition to convert some of the
optimism apparent for some time past
into actual purchasing for fall, and in
the case of some lines beyond that.
Helpful in this direction has been the
large assemblages of country buyers
at the various trade and market week
gatherings at leading markets. At
both eastern and western markets and
at points in the southwest where re-
cent rains have been beneficial to corn
and cotton, more has been doing for
fall for beyond. 1t Is noted that dry
goods, especially cotton and silk fab
RIGS, have sold better at some lead
ing eastern centers, and that interest
has been quickened by a perceptible
readiness on the part of some produc-
ers to extend lines along the. path of
new styled cotton fabrics for next
season.

22.Sqo less than last years bumper

account of the record crop of last
year and low prices, potato acreage
this year declined $50. Present in
dications arefor about 102 bushels

900 bushels compared with 49,
394,00 bushels last month, 56,170, 900

England at this time appears to have
an average crop. Early blight is re-
ported from several sections and late
blight has appeared in a few places.
