Oregon stock and se-eral cars were
said during the last week, a part of

There has been a tendency on the
part of eastern buyers to discredit
information coming from the coast
that holdings of prunes at the present
tune are very light However, they
are beginning to realize that a short
age actually exists and the market is
showing signs of a rapid awakening.
There have been very light crops
of most drying fruits in nearly all
cevtions of the west and the pack of
canned fruit during the last season is
also short. These conditions are ex
pected to work toward the early clean
up of stocks of dried and canned
fruit and it is thought that they will
be largely sold out by the middle of
tbe coming summer.

one year after Spain acquired
from France the Louisiana Ter

Colonization greatly Increased

In 1828 Missouri formed a state

(With a choice of many shacks).
Where a dollar buys a liloust;
Where the butter costs two bits
For a 16 ouncing pound; -Where
the tailor always fits;.
Where S3 shoes are found.
Take me back to normalcy,
Where the musty ale s on draught:
Where the lunch is always free;
Where the politicians grart;
Where the seats are ten, twent, thirtj.
Where the overall is kind
In the place of silken shirt;
Where the time-clock we can ring.
Where the wages are but Gee-
Don't take this theory too fart
Take me back to normalcy,
Hut do not take my twin-six car.
