Southern State la now getting very warm.
Th exchange ha been giving consider
able thought to th queatlon of storags at
shipping point. It has bean demonstrated
this yesr that fruit which could be carried
at shipping point In good condition, and
rreehly packed would bring considerably
higher prices than tha same grade of fruit
ex-cold storags la the Est or Mludls West.
Tns sxrhsngs la undsr tha Impression that,
dry storsge or air storag Is even- better
then cold storags at this end of th 11ns.
provided storages ar built with special ref
erence ta carrying fruit. Th fruit should
b held In field crte and freshly packsd
Immediately prtar to shipment. In this
way good dellry can be effected, and tha

"We have recently purchased upwards of $500,000
carefully selected, bonds, which constitute a direct
obligation, supported by the taxing power, of a
number of the most substantial and well-established
Cities and School Districts throughout the Pacific
Northwest.
Bonds of this character afford an exceptionally
safe and profitable investment for many years, and
at the same time can be readily converted into cash
or used aa collateral, etc.
.e ;
"We are now preparing a special circular giving a
list of such bonds we have to offer, copy of which we
will be glad to furnish upon application.

the top level reached. Buying seemed con
fined, however, almost entirely to shorts,
who were taking profits or putting a stop
to loss. The May option was chiefly af
fected and ranged between 85c and ll!48
S6c aad closed with a premium . over
July at 84e. a net gain of 14c
Wet weather and a big Increase of cash
demand led to a higher plane for corn.
