given hy commission merchants for the deliver,
of grain to the buyer the orders are written gene
rally at the desk adjoining the one occupied by th'
secretary and he thus has an opportunity OF see
ing what is being done but in cases where lots o
grainsarc deposited in the stores occupied by th'

marks in writing on mcmoranduIp book at Int
table, and then in many cases passes out of TIN
