The Connecticut experiment station
«is doing the farmers and the dealers
in grain a good turn by calling atten-
. tion to the law which requires that
commercial feeds shall be of standard
qurity. A recent bulletin published by
the state. says: “The sale of cotton
,aeed meal or other commercial feed
which does not comply with the above
, requirements is illegal and renders the
‘ , person who sells the meal in Connec-
Iticut liable to a. fine of $100 for the
‘iirst‘offense and $200 for the second.
The attention of dealers within the
. Xstabe is called to the matter now, that.
they may have it in mind in contract-
,ing at. the south for deliveries next
fall and winter. The manufacturers
should certainly give correct guaran-
‘ hens and not throw this burden and
the possibility of prosecution on the
_ dealer, who has no chance to examine
‘ . ‘ the goods till delivered to him and paid
fats.” it is manifestly unfair for an
' innocent dealer to be punished for the
sins of the manufacturers, but on the
other hand there is no‘better way to
secure‘high standards than by com-
pelling the middlemen to do their
, , share towards exercising care regard-
; , ing purchases and sales.

Weather Has. Had a Slight
Effect on the Sales
(The American Hatter.) .
The prosperity wliich‘lu recent years
has been so general throughout all
the United States in all iudustriesrls
reflected in the present great activity
in every branch of the hat trade.
The spring Just past as a whole did
not compare favorably with the seve-
ral exceedingly prosperous seasons
which preceded, but thbt this was due
entirely to the extended unseasouable
weather and not. to‘ any general busi-
ness re-actlon, would seem to have
been conclusively demonstrated by
the promise of an unprecedently suc~
cessful season which conditions pre-
vailing early in the year gave.
While the straw hat season was late.
in all sections, hardly any buying ma-
terializlng before June 15. the advent
of warm weather brought with it the
usual volume of business in straws
and the season has been closed out
very satisfactorily as a whole.
The soft but salesmen to the job-
bing trade are allsou the road, but Au-
gust 1 found them hurrying home to
attend to the visiting trade when it
reaches the New York market to buy
spring hats.
The spring stiff hat lines are also
ready and early purchasing indicates
that the full blocks will prevail, with
somewhat smaller dimensions than
heretofore. 5%x1% and biexl'it. being
most popular.
A feature of the case trade is the
decided tendency towards better quali-
ties. the continually increasing busi-
ness on $18.00 hate being particular-
ly noticeable.
Retail buyers are in the market leav-
ing orders for straw felts. The straw
hat business seems to be entirely sot.
istactory. orders being booked early
and in volume that seem to indicate
that straw stock will not be carried
over. With this as a criterion there Is
little doubt that retailers have ex-
perienced a season that was fully up
to expectations.
The orders seem to be distributed
over a wide range of varieties and di-
mensions, and the only features that
stand out stronger than others are the
popularity of soft braid straws and
coarse braids in yachts. The former
have been very popular this season.
those retailers having the correct
shapes having experienced broken siz-
es for these goods earlier than in the
other lilies. and for next year it is any
ticlpaied that they will be still better
stock.
Soft fur hats have sold
well, prevailing colors being
sides. belly. and darker shades of
brown, telescopes continuing to re-
ccivc the bulk of the demand. although
there is noticable a desire to get away
from this shape.
in stiff hats full crowns rule with
the small slmpes continuing popular
for the hobby trade. prevailing di-
mensions being 51,4. and 51,4, and 1%.
1%. and 1% brims.
There has been a good demand for
brown hats in both stiff and soft, in
various shades from the '
with contrasting band and binding
that was so popular the last spring
to darker shades with matched trim-
mlngs.

MISSISSIPPI ELECTION CONTEST.
NEW ORLEANS, August 7.-—Dis-
patches from Jackson, Miss. say that
a second senatorial primary for John
Sharp Williams and Governor James
K. Vardaman is regarded with favor
by many followers of both. Secretary
of State Power, up to last night. still
had ten counties to hear the ofilcial
returns from and the count up to that
front showed Mr. Williams‘ lead to
be but. about 440 votes.
The smallness of the plurality, which
it. is now estimated the winner will
have, ls given as the ground for the
belief that the contest. over the elec-
lion is ineviiablc. The ballot. boxes
are being watcher by workers on both
sides. The fact that a second primary
must be held to elect the candidate for
governor has cleared the way for the
advocacy for another vote for senator.
