Provisions we're rather less actiye-indeed, the
market VAS dull though hogs we're quoted
had been expected. The packers have not
opened out yet, very extensively, and some Of
them say it would seem that there are not so
many hogs in the country, after ell, or they

doubt that they will como in rapidly enough by

have already sold ahead about all that they want
to, and packing is not active enough to permit
Of much cash product being offered. The
