MARKET REVIEW. ; ThvbodaY, April 7. 1892. The wet, cool weather of the past week has checked the trade of the city somewhat, but for all that, business has been quite satisfactory. There are no material changes worthy of note, save a decline in flour and a corresponding drop in wheat. Portland's market is very sluggish and a general complaint of dullness for the season of the year. In the grocery trade and general prices there are no changes. Sugar is very firm, produced by the combine, and there is no telling what .the result will be in the outcome, but it is expected that prices -will rise higher than - they have been during the past few months. . The produce market is well supplied with all kinds of vegetables. New onions, radishes, lettuce, spinach and asparagus is in fair supply from home growth, at reasonable rates.' Pie plant, or rhubarb, has made its appearance in eome of our fruit stands. Eggs are quite plentiful at former quotations. Gilt edge butter is in good supply at 4650 cents per roll. Pota toes are in good supply at 4560 cents per sack. The wool market is slumbering as usual. Buyers are not in it yet, as they say. There is no sale in Eastern mar kets but a disposition to let wool alone for the present, as they are afraid to touch it on the present uncertainty. It is thought, however, that by the 1st of July there will considerable activity in the markets. Mill feed is short of supply but for mer prices are maintained.

The fundamental mistake out of which new the gloomy doctrines of the older theorists was in measuring the possibili ties of production by what they knew of oil culture. Science had not revealed to them that, aside from proper tempera ture and moisture, the essential factor in vegetable production is plant food;' that this may be given to the plant with out the aid of the soil; that what they understood by soil fertility is a compara tively unessential factor of agricultural production; that, in short, the possibili ties of the food supply in the future are measureless. Professor Atwater in Century. Tho Cabman Was Afraid. .' Mr. Walter Besant tells the following story of a disputed cab fare: "A friend of mine drove from Piccadilly to some place in the suburbs outside the radius. On getting down he tendered three shil lings and sixpence for his fare this was a little over the proper fare. The driver wanted five shillings. The passenger re fused. Td like to fight you for it,' said the driver. 'The very thing cried my friend, who had never in his life put on a boxing glove, and- was almost as ig norant as Mr. Pickwick even of the fight ing attitude. 'The very thing! Capital 1 Well have the fight in the back garden, my brother will look on, hold the stakes and see fair play.' The cabman got down slowly'; " 'I was pleased,' continued the nar rator, 'to discover that he appeared al most as much afraid as I was myself, perhaps if that was possible even more. He followed into the back gar den, where there was a lovely little bit of- turf, quite large enough for practical purposes. I placed my five shillings In my brother's hands, took off my coat and waistcoat and rolled up my sleeves, all with an appearance of cheerful alacrity.' 'Now, my friend,' I said, 'I am ready as soon as you are.' The anxiety of the moment was, I confess, very great. But it decreased as I watched the man's face express successively all the emotions of bounce, surprise, doubt, hesitation and abject cowardice. 'No,' he said, 'gimme the three and six; I know your tricks, both of you. I've been done this way before.' And so, grumbling and swear ing, ne drove away." . J U'S't 24. In ust 24 honrs J.
