week have injured crops. The wheat market 
has not materially altered. Sellers were firm 
during the week, and millers were apathetic. 
The sales of English wheat for the week were 
61,172 quarters at 31s lid per quarter, against 
46,467 quarters at 37s 5d for the corresponding 
week last year. Flour was more scarce, and 
values have improved. Foreigu wheats were 
weaker, owing to the larger stocks, the large 
quantity afloat, the acute position of the Amer¬ 
ican trade, and the outlook for the next crop 
of the world, There is no prospect at present 
of an improvement. English wheats were 
difficult to sell. For foreigu there was no in¬ 
quiry; American red was rather cheaper; 
good America was flat. Maize, although 
scarce, was 3d cheaper. Other grains were 
dull. 
Exports of wheat from Australia to Great 
Britain for four months, January to April 
inclusive, were 48,000 quarters this year, 
against 796,000 last year. Flour exports were 
1,100 tons, against 2,000 tons last year. 
There are reports of heavy rains which are 
said to have “lessened somewhat the former 
excellent outlook for spring wheat” in Minne¬ 
sota, Dakota, Wisconsin and Nebraska. This 
rainfall is also stated to have caused some 
injury to the winter wheat in Wisconsin, 
Michigan, Ohio and Indiana, “where some of 
the fields were beginning to head out.” But 
no serious damage has been reported. In 
Kansas, where but a “40-per-cent, crop” was 
to be harvested, “some improvement is noted” 
in the winter wheat outlook within 30 days, 
and in Michigan within a fortnight past. 
At home the past week has been sig¬ 
nalized by the heaviest week’s decline in the 
visible supply of wheat on this crop, over 
2,330.000 bushels, as compared with a decline 
of 1,900,000 bushels, the heaviest decline in any 
previous week. This is due greatly to the 
heavy foreign exports, as the low prices se¬ 
cured large investments. In spite of the de¬ 
crease in the visible supply, however, prices 
have fallen everywhere. 
Corn dull and generally lower. A decline 
of only 800,000 bushels in the visible supply- 
Oats have been irregular. Decrease in visible 
supply nearly 1,600,000 bushels. The decline 
in grain, as usual, produced a decline in hog 
products. Large operators predict that pork 
in July will sell for 87 a barrel iu Chicago. 
Butter lower on account of heavy accumu¬ 
lating stock. Cheese steady. 
Old potatoes are growing scarce and higher. 
Apples too have begun to go up. It would 
seem that the low prices last Fall led many to 
bestow little thought on keeping their apples, 
so that now it is likely there will be a good 
market for those that have beeu kept sound. 
It is expected there will be a shortage of 
at least five per cent, in this year’s w'ool clip. 
There will be a falling off in Ohio, Penn’a, 
W. Va., and heavy losses are reported from 
Western Kansas and Southern Colorado. In 
Michigan, Wyoming, and Montana flocks have 
wintered well. The general impression is 
that the shortage of the home clip and the 
heavy sales of woolens by manufacturers 
point to higher prices later on. Just now 
buyers are doiug all they can to depress prices 
and to force moneyless farmers to part with 
their stock at low rates, but when they have 
secured the bulk of the clip they will be 
equally anxious to put up prices on the man¬ 
ufacturers. The great hindrances to high 
prices are the labor agitation and the un¬ 
precedentedly low price of Australian wool in 
England. Nearly 400,000 bales are to be sold 
in Loudon on June 16, and the prices there 
will influence those here. It is likely, how¬ 
ever, that it will pay to hold wool rather than 
sell it below the cost of production, which 
was largely done last year. The wool market 
has nowhere, so far as we can find out, opened 
lower than a year ago, aud in some places it 
is higher; two cents higher at Salt Lake City. 
A San Antonio, Texas dispatch says that 
the wool market there is quite alive. On the 
13th inst. over 1,000 bags, or 900,000 pounds 
were sold. Nearly all of it is six months’ 
growth. The sak« were made on private 
terms, purchasers requesting the sellers not to 
disclose them, but euough was learned to show 
that the price paid was not less than 16 cents 
per pound, and that some of it went at lflhj 
cents. There are at least 8,000,000 p>ounds of 
wool on hand there, and this amount does not 
embrace a third of the crop of this Spring.

I WILL INSURE YOUR HOGS! 
DR. JOS. HAAS’ 
HOG AND POULTRY REMEDY 
(None Genuine irichont thia Trade Mark.] 
Is the only Practical Preventive of the so- 
called Swine Plague. 
It has never heen surpassed as an increaseT ol 
pork and geuerai system tonic. Aiding digestion, 
stimulating the biliary organs, preventing torpor 
and engorgement of the liver, and regulating the 
bowels, It removes and prevents the formation of 
disease germs, and preserves to the well bred hog 
Ilia natural constitution. Where It. has hr-en fed to 
such animals in the prescribed quantities, and 
other directions faithfully observed,it lias proved 
a thorough preventive agsdnst swine dtsense. 
AS AN EVIDENCE OF FAITH 
'u mv remedy I make the following offer: 
I will insure herds of swine of not | --ss than one 
huna.csl in nnruber against disease, at a small fee 
per head, orovided they are fed nay remedy under 
my directi’o.- and prove upon examination prior to 
contract, that Uey are in a healthy condition, and 
are neither in-bred, close-bred nor the progeny of 
sach, 
L I will forfeit $100.00 to any breeder whose offer 
to examine for insurance I decline, proviu.d he 
forwards remittance to cover my expenses to and 
from location of hogs, or I fail to prove to the satis¬ 
faction of any disinterested party, that failure to 
respond to invitatiou is caused by prior engagement 
or by matters of at least equal importance. 
2, 'i will forfeit $590.1X1 if I decline upon examina¬ 
tion to Insure such herds, if my judgment as to 
their condition of health is overborne by the result 
ofari examination made by at least f.vo properly 
qualified and graduated veterinary surgeons. 
Facts are Better than Assertions. 
Please read the following testimony: 
GmsoNToN P. O., Pa., Feb. 2,1885. 
Dr. Jos. Haas—Dear Sir: About a year ago our 
h>-ni here numbered about 2.7b) head- Disease 
broke out, and no remedy we had would arrest the 
trouble. Our losses were heavy and we had to give 
up feeding entirely for about two rnontbe. We then 
heard of vour remedy and bought a trial lot, and 
began feeding again. NVe have used it constantly 
eversince. We nave since April last received about 
5 000 fit-ad of hogs Into our herd and have not bada 
single death from swine disease. This is our ex¬ 
perience. Our opinion is that the remedy has pre¬ 
vented disease, and vre would not think of being 
without it. As an aid in rationing pork, we believe 
it to be good. On this point, however, we have not 
made ah actual test, rts iw would not risk feeding a 
pen of hogs without the Remedy. 
Yours very truly, WHITE & CX). 
TN. B.—White * Co., since writing the above 
letter, have purchased $450 worth of the remedy.] 
The remedy can be procured of all Druggists, or 
from my laboratory. Prices, $2.50, ;1.25 aud 50 cts. 
per package. 25 lb. cans. $1250.

He Was Willing to Ante I p. 
Brocton, N. Y., Oct. 23, 1885.—t had a 
severe trouble with my bladder. Consulted a 
number of first class phj’sicians, without ben¬ 
efit. After using half a bottle of Warner’s 
safe cure I was relieved, and I would gladly 
have paid any physician $100, could he have 
done what t hat small quantity did. Now I am 
thoroughly cured. Would like to proclaim its 
value from the top of the White Mountains, 
with a voice strong enough for the whol 
world to hear. E. D. Crossman, grape
