The diagram's central column features a series of arithmetic problems. The plus, minus, and times signs are already in place; you must derive the six different numbers, one per square in that column, involved in the arithmetic. Solve each problem in turn; that is, add the first number to the second, as directed; then apply that sum to the next operation; and so on. The correct result will be expressed in the entire bottom line of the puzzle. Eight answers are capitalized.
The instructions above are for this month's puzzle only. See a complete introduction to clue-solving.

Try your hand at previous Puzzlers going back to 1997.
