PRESENT YEAR PROVING CLEARING-UP PERIOD ON CANADIAN PRAIRIES.

WlINbI-PPIEG. November -24.—Tbe year 1W2 is proving to be a clear- lng-up period on the prlaries. It opened up under conditlons which inspired economy and industry. The three previous years had been lean ones for the producers, had seen the deflation in prices oi all farm product-s. in -much larger measure than in other lines which they had to buy, and in many in- stances the farmer was in hard circumstances. But the 400,000,000- bushel wheat crop which is being marketed is working wonders in a marveilously quiet way.

Trade conditions generally. are far from satisfactory; there is gen- eral complaint among retail men and the wholesalers are ln no bet- ter mood. The fine weather has lasted right through until today, when it. is warm and bright, the temperature at 50 degrees in the shade. The farmers are buQ with fall ploughing and have beefl‘ all along. They have not been devot- ing all their time to rushing their grain on to the market, consequent- ly there vlrill be plenty of whent to draw out after it freezes up. It is estimated that about 180,000,000 bushels oi wheat have been market- ed so far, and that about 20,000,000 bushels more will come out before navigation closes. it is safe to
