Is because the town, as town (under the

more than just that they should subscribe
enough for good depot. This is right.

Take, for example, grain. In The nat
ural order Of things, the supply is equal
to the demand The exceptions are
when war takes from the producing to
add to the consuming class, which, in ad-
dition to waste and eypeAse Of transpor-
tation, inevitably increases the demand,
while decreasing the production and OF
course augments the price or when
failure in some crop in some section
places the supply below the needs Of that
section, and other districts are called up
on to make up the deficiency.
But both Of these causes are eXcep-
tionl. As to the failure of the grain
crops in any section, ii has become H.
most an axiom That when corn or wheat
is below the average, something else
that can take the place of one on both is
above, and thus the general average, ex-
cept in rare cases, is preserved
Then as to POTATOES. They are gener-
ally lower in the full than in the spring,
but the larger price in May rarely, If
ever, nets as much as the smaller price
in October. The shrinking during the
six months is never less
than twenty-five per cent. under the
most favorable circumstances, and is
likely to be much greater.
Take, also, wool. The clip is gener-
lily bou9ht up in July and Angus. II
not sold then, it must be held till the |

some trouble, the loss Of interest ou the I
