"Tho earliest settlements , whlcl were the starting points of nearly nl of our larger cities , were necessarll along our navigable rivers or lakes In the earlier days the trader , who WIIH later replaced by the merchant , oxi'hnngod nocoHHltloH , such us gro ceries , clothes , guns , ammunition , etc. , for furs. ThlH was before the sottlorH had commenced to raise grnlim more than enough for their own consump tion , nnd the only thlngH ho had to oxchnnge for hlH noccHHltlon , In those dnys , were the furs from the animals ho killed , and with which the country abounded. AH the country grow older and more thickly settled , the fur bearIng - Ing anlmalH hccaino scarce and the settlers turned their nttentlon to ng- rlrulturo. The fur trader disappeared , and In his place the country merchant , who hnil only a Hinnll Block of the principal necessities , and a few lux uries , to exchange for cash , grnliiH or other produce. "This was all very well for the coun try merchant during the summer months , when the rlverH and lakeH were oion ) and ho could get his grain and produce down the river to market , but when the winter sot In and the rlvorH and lakes were frozen , ho could get no more of IIH ! grain or other pro duce to market until after the Ice had disappeared from the rivers and lakes the next Hprlng. "These cliTuniHtancoH brought about the Ili-Ht necessity of soiling grain for future delivery/ "Tho country merchant , knowing that ho could not get any more of bin rain down the rlvor to market until 10 following spring , Bold the dealer arther down the rlvor so many bush- Is of grain , to bo delivered nftor the ponlng ol navigation the following prlng. This was the first future on heat , and ns the time for delivery van In May , It was therefore May vheat. "This system of Boiling grain for uturo delivery has been extended luco the advent of the railroads , to early every month of the year. The mictlco of selling grain for future do- Ivory IU\H reached such n scnlo that t has become a commercial necessity. U the present time our flouring mills and grain dealers could not exist nnd onduct tholr business profitably wore t not for tbo fact that they can now my and sell grains for future deliv ery.
