' which" confronta not onlr the million

i Thla altuatlon haa arnuaed much anx

their wholesale euppiyroan ror rener.
Thla ' haa reaulted In irujulrlea , goln
out bow the altuatlon can beat be met.
I' made a tour of the wholesale dis
trict the other day where foodatuffa are
bandied by the train and shipload. and
found , that many aubatltutea will be
made, or an attempt at leaat. on the
part of those dealers to circumvent the
advantage, which thoae in control aeem
to be taking- of the consumer. For
sometime New Torkera harve felt that
they have reached . the limit of fixed
rhargea outliving expensea, and the last
announcement btui brought sueh a
storm of protest that the wholesalers
iel -me .a ; decided change it bound, to
take place' to meet the demand.
Driven to Substitute.
"In all probability," said a whole
sale butter dealer who handled carloads
of this . dairy, product at one time, "the
substitute for butter, now so popular
Jn many parts of. the world, will find, a
ready aala lrt New York Oleomargarine,
butterlne, and the like, you will find,
will appear on sale In grocery, stores
where heretofore : the patrons' of these
high class places turned up their noses
' at even such a suggestion. It Is evi
dent to-me that the great multitude,
which constitutes the majority, cannot
mttnrA tn nnv SO cents a Dound for but
ter and by reason of necessity will be
driven to substitute for It. When
they learnwiat the substitutes can be
bought for 20 or 26 cents a pound, and
that the better qualities can scarcely
be told from first class butter, house
wives, who, usually do the saving' for
the entire family, will be very quick to
't etftlrely abandon the' pufcJhaae 'Of' but
fWhlle it will be to my advantage
financially to sell the substitutes for
butter. I would much prefer to com
tlnue handling .the genuine article, but
I am afraid I Will be driven Into the
oleomargarine business because of the
existing high prices."
Hew Signal System Possible.
The wreck on the Pennsylvania road
outside the Jersey City terminal the
other day which destroyed four tracks,
although not of the very extensive char
acter. In a way paralyzed the whole
s syatem. The officials of thls'road have
taken warning, and because they be
lieve the road was tied up on account
of the defective signal system, Super-
. lntendent bcrcromble may Install an
entirely new system for the Pennsyl
vania lines. This is a feature which
railroad officials from all parts of the
country are carefully watching because
they have heretofore believed the block
signal system of the Pennsylvania rail
road to be perfect, and a model for all
nthers to follow. If a change is made.
It will mean the Investment of millions
of dollars, and may revolutionise the
method of control of trains operated in
America.

but sales of other fruit ranged from
$S. B0 to $4.25. This is considered only
a fair shipment for this time of year,
but it Is expected that during the com
ing week the great Christmas supply
will begin to arrive, It being pointed
out that an effort Is being . made to
avoid the transportation of this fruit
during the cold weather. The blunder
which someone Is responsible for in
holding back of the California grape
fruit during the past week, will result
In the great loss to both grower and
shipper. This fruit If on the marlceta

being- a heavy demand for it every-

The Swastika Mines are located in the Lake View district, on Lake Pend O'Reille,
northern Idaho, one of the richest silver-lead districts in the world. ; Organized
under the laws of Idaho and capitalized for $500,000. The development work is
in charge of J. W. Ferguson, a mining man of unquestionable integrity, and abil
ity. Mr. Ferguson has had much experience in mining, and has spent a number
of years in Idaho, and is thoroughly familiar with the conditions existent' there.
He has aided in making many mines in the past, and it is his opinion that none of
the properties on which he has operated were more promising than the Swastika
group. v ' '
The Present Management
Has owned this property but a quarter of a year, and already has five hundred
tons of ore on the dump, worth $6000. This ore, it is expected and confidently be
lieved, will be marketed within the next ninety days. It is announced that the
Panhandle smelter, which is only thirty miles distant from the Swastika, will
reopen January 1.
What We Desire to Boi
Is to sell sufficient stock to defray the cost of continued development, until we can
realize from our ores, when stogk will be withdrawn and our books dosed.
