TO RETAIL DEAI.KHS.
The war between the sugar and eolTee
rusts still continues and it is a good
ime to buy Rio coffee.
Those who bought nails on our mtvict
nay be glad to learn that the mill price:
ave gone up another notch, and an
bout 10 per cent higher than they were
ix weeks atro.
There is no decrease in t lie prices ol
loots and shoes, and there is some talk
f higher prices in the criers of next
eason.
This la a good week in which to buy

TO I'AHMKItS.
Some sales of wool have lieen made
.his week at prices about six conts t
raund higher than the quotations which
ere In force last February when we ad
ited fanners to hold wool. Indeed some
idvances ot two cents are now quoted
iren over last week's prices. V Idle we
lelleve that wool may go higher yet
bote who are not di.poied to run a littlt
risk of lower price i can realize this week
tt a profit of about S3 per cent in some
dues over what they would have got II
mr advice had not been followed.
The wheat situation is rather curious,
die speculative prices on wheat nro at
ogether too low, and us matters look
iow the speculators are going to get
