FLOUR DROPS 60 CENTS Thp
WALLA WALLA MILLERS AN
NOUNCE BIG SLUMP.
Reduction Means 15 3ents on a
Sack Farmers Scent Ruse
and Retain Grain.
WALLA WALLA, Sept. 16. (Special.)
After having been at high-water mark of
$6 a barrel on flour for the last several
months, the quotations today on this
commodity were announced iy local mill
ers to have taken a slump of 60 cents on
the barrel. Thla is the first indication
of a reduction In the price .corresponding
with the steady decline In wheat that has
been made public for months, and it Is
now prophesied that a downward course
will be maintained.
The present reduction amounts to about
IS cents a sack, the former price having
been $1.70. This move on the part of the
millers Is regarded as significant by the
farmers, who state it is a bluff by them
to force the quotations on wheat down,
under the supposition that there Is a
plentiful supply on hand for milling pur
poses. Farmers decline to take the bait,
however, and are hanging on to their
grain, waiting for better market prices.

For the reduplication of
typewritten or handwritten

ket. Next in importance to the
value of the Mimeograph it
self as a time and labor, and,
therefore; a money saver, is
the new predominating im
provement found in the No.
76, by which all ink-muss,
possible soiling of hands or
injury to clothing or office
' furniture from handling of
ink, is forever eliminated. The
last possible objection that
could ever be raised against
mimeographing has been
ov.ercome, and while the han
dling of ink was sometimes
attended with more or less
unavoidable " mussiness,"
the new automatic self-inking
device removes any un
pleasant part of the opera-
tion.
There has been no improve
ment in the process of mim
eographing in twenty years

to and be welcomed so gladly
by users of a Mimeograph as
