BUREAU REPORTS BUSINESS OF 1924 Swedish Royal Board of Trade Issues Favorable Statement —_— Stockholm, Feb, 13.—Healthful stabllity of Swedish economic condi- tions in general, contrasted with the hampering effect of .the dlspropor- tlon between industrial wages and market conditlons, are the keynotes of the fourth official quarterly re- port of the royal board of trade, The balancing of accounts for the fiscal year 1923-24 shows a budget surplus of $11,041,000, the principal goupces of this excess revenue being the import duties and the earnings of varfous state enterprises, such as the state grailways. The total for- elgn trade)s increasing rapidly, with the exports galning faster than the | imparts. The Swedish iron ore industries had a prosperous year, Graenges- berg, the principal mining company, declaring a dividend of 10 per cent for 1924, a¥ against 5 per cent the previous year. During the ybar end- ed September 30, 1924, this company exported 4,360,000 tons of org an increase of,about 750,000 tons over the precedlr\g year. The iron and steel and machine industries are depressed, owing to the fact that the prices obtainable in the market scarcely cover the cost of production, A process of wage readjustment is now going on, which, 1t is .hoped, will restore a fair margin of profit and encourage enterprise, Swedish lumber sales during 1924 amounted to about 90 per.cent of the total production. By the end of December more than 100,000 stand- ards had also been sold for delivery in 1925, which is 43 per cent more than the corresponding figure a year earlier. The total exports of Swed- fsh wood pulp during the first nine months of 1924 reached 924,289 tons PAIN GONE! RUB SORE, RHEUNATIC, ACHING JOINTS Stop “dosing” rheumatism. 1t's pain only.

Grant, Phil Sheridan and George B. McClellan are related in an account of a year they spent at old Fort Vancouver, Oregon territory, writ. ten by Mrs. Della B. Sheffield, who as the wife of a sergeant in the Fourth United States infantry, the [a command to which they were at- tached, shared their plonecering ex- periences thers in pre-Civil war days A movement has been launched to restore old Fort Vancouver noar what I8 now Vancouver, Wash., across the Columbia river from Portland, Ore. The Fourth United States infantry, one of the pioneer organizations of the army, now is stationed at Yort George Wright, Spokane. Mrs, Sheffield's memolrs of these days have been made public by Wil- llam 8. Lewls, historian of the East- ern Washington Historical society, who recelved them from Mrs, Caro- line Hathaway Cook, Mrs, Shef- field’s daughter. General, then Captain Grant, was regimental quartermaster and was in charge of the transportation of the Fourth infantry on its long journey from Governor's Island, New York, to Fort Vancouver in 1852, The trip was commenced on July §, by steam- er for Aspinwall, Panama, and thence across the Isthmus of Pan- ama by train, boat, on- muleback and afoot. {The officers were ac- companied by their families and some of the women carried umnll babies. To &dd to the difficulties of the | journey, the California gold rush was in full swing, and after the regiment had boarded a steamer on the Pacific side of the isthmus, Asi- atic cholera broke out. San Fran- | cisco was reached September 1, but | no shore leave was granted for fear | of desertlons to seek gold, At Bene- |cia, Cal,, an army post, the regiment | | |went into camp to recuperate until | |September 18, and then again board- | {ed ship for Fort Vanconver, which was reached some days later. Besides the army barracks there, |the town consisted of the Hudson's Bay Company's trading post and a |dozen log huts of Indian and half- | |breed employes of the company, | which carried on extensive trapping |operations with Fort Vancouver as | the base, | In order to rase the money to | |bring his family from the east, Cap- {tain Grant with a fellow officer leas- ed a tract of land not far from the fort, which he planted to potatoes and oats. However, Mrs. Shefficld's | |account relates, the river flooded | out the crops. | In the spring of 1853 Captain |Grant asked Mrs, Shefficld to take | into her home as boarders himself, | Lieutenant Phil Sheridan, Captain | George M. McClellan and two others. | When she objected that she would | be unable to care for so large a housechold, Captan Grant replied: | | “On, that can bo easily managed. | | T shall detail one of the soldiers who | is a good cook to do the cooking, | and besides, I have ah excellent cook | | book and am a pretty good cook my- {self. I am sure that we shall man- | age very well.” Grant missed his wife very muLh | at this time and frequently express- | | ed a desire to resign from the army fand live with his famlly, which |some time later he did. After the potato failure, Grant nd his busi- ness associate bought all the chic ens for 20 miles around and char- tered a vessel to ship them to mark- |et In San Francisco.
