Sugar Recovers From Drop.
Sugar advanced 15 cents again yes
terday, making a total increase of 65
cents within the past 30 days. This
nearly wipes out the sensational drop
ot 75 cents made about two months
ago, and all signs point to a continued
advance to higher prices than early
this summer, when all records were
broken. Granulated cane sugar is now
$7.76 a sack.
Potatoes are advancing In price. The
middle western crop this year Is said
to be from 40 to 60 per cent short and
already the Yakima crop is being
drawn upon for' eastern shipments.
Tbe local crop is not all dug yet, but
is said to be normal. The price now
ranges around $21 a ton for locals
and $25 for Taklmas.
Frosty nights have caused some of
the fresh local field products to be
come Bcarce. Tomatoes are being
picked green by growers who want to
save what they can before a killing
froBt destroys the remainder of the
crop. Blackberries in the valley were
said to be badly damaged by Monday
night's frost, but the local demand is
light and prices failed to advance. -
Tokay grapes are still jobbing at
$1.35 a crate but an advance Is ex
pected soon, Elberta and Crawford
peaches are still running strong at
60 cents a box. Peaches are rapidly
nearlng the end of their season. Can
taloupes are getting scarce. Apples
are arriving In large quantities.-
Steel Company Buys Site.
Portland Fifteen acres of land sit
uated north of the plant of the Shell
Oil company at Wlllbridge have been
purchased as the site for the new
Portland plant of the Pacific Coast
Steel company and an allied industry,
according to A. C. Callan, whose orig
inal announcement at a recent pros
perity dinner that these two industries
were coming to Portland was made In
The Oregonian.
Approximately 10 acres of the pur
chased tract will be utilized for the
plant of the steel company, construc
tion of which will probably be com
menced within the next year. Until
the final details of the entire plant
are worked out the identity of the
auxiliary industry will not be announc
ed, Mr. Callan said. The property
purchased does not front on the Wil
lamette river, but is not far removed
from the waterfront and has adequate
railroad facilities.
Flour Retailing Lower Than Wholesale
Minneapolis. The continued rise In
the price ot flour has brought about
an unprecedented condition in the lo
cal market While several retailers
were selling top grade Minneapolis
flour at $8.60 to $8.70 a barrel. In
single barrel lots, the millers were
asking $8.85 and $9 tor the same grade
in carload lots.
"Millers have no control over retail
prices," said one miller. "It is possi
ble tor a retailer holding flour pur
chased at low prices to retail it now
at a figure lower than the mills could
produce It at present".
Producers Get the Money.
According to reports ' Issued this
week, by the United States depart
ment of agriculture on crop and live
stock prices, the producer was paid an
average increase ot 9.S per cent dur
ing the month of August for his prod
ucts. The government report Is that
the index figure of prices on Septem
ber 1 was 21.9 per cent higher thau
two years ago, and 18.6 per cent high
er than the average of the last eight
years on this date. This report shows
that the producer was paid 19.4 tier
cent more for his meat animals than
a year ago.
Eleotrlo Heating of Houses.
Stockholm, way up on the Baltic sea
side of Sweden, la a cold proposition
for many months in tbe year. Not
only Its far-north latitude, but its In
sular situation conduces to cold cli
matic conditions. For Stockholm Is
built mostly on Islands, and Is called
the Venice of the Baltic.
But the people in the city keep very
warm during the long winters, and
they do so through electrical heating
arrangements. Fuel for individual
famines was an Immense Item In
Sweden, as it is in all cold countries,
but in the past few years the electri
cians of the country have bent their
energies to 'the development of the
natural water powers, to the end that
electricity has become the chief fuel.
Hot water tanks in hotels, churches
and all public and private buildings
are heated by electricity from a near
by power plant, and the hot water Is
sent through the houses pretty much
as it goes through similarly heated
houses in our cities. The electricity
that heats the water is turned on at
night when the family retires, and by
morning the tank is so hot that the
water, pumped automatically through
the house pipes, gives the inhabitants
all the comforts of steam heat, and it
lasts thOsugh the whole day.
The chief difference is that we build
our coal fires in our furnaces, and
have smoke and ashes to contend with,
while the Swedes press a button that
connects the house tank wire with
the power plant, and the work Is done,
with no aftermath of cleaning up.

A Time for the Two Bears.
We have a friend who is fond of
telling hcrw his elderly, mother took
him aside when he was about to be
married and advised him always to
keep two bears In his home if he would

When he asked her what she meant
she explained that the animals she

The homely story is one that we
Americans might well lay to heart

quarrels, and quarrels are invariably
ruinous to happiness, disturbing to
business and nearly always lead us to

Misery in Back, Headachy
and Pain in Limbs.
Dear Mr. Editor For mora than A
year I suffered with misery in the back,
dull headache, pain in the limbs, was
somewhat constipated and slept poorly
at night until I was about ready to col
lapse. Seeing an account of the won
derful qualities of "Anuric," prepared!
by Dootor Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., I
sent for a box, and before using tho
whole box I felt and still feel improved.
My sleep is refreshing, misery reduced,
and life is not tbe drag it was before. I .
most cheerfully recommend this remedy
to sufferers from like ailments.
; Yours truly, W, A. Roberts.

of the famous Dr. Fierce and. his well

urinary troubles.
Up to this time, "Anuric" has not
been on sale to the publio, but by the
Sersuasion of many patients and the
creased demand for this wonderful
healing Tablet, Dr. Pierce bos finally
decided to put it into tbe drug stores
of this country within immediate reach
of all sufferers.

procure a supply of "Anuric" tor their
anxious customers in and around tbia
