WHEELING, August !, lS72. ~
There Is considerable activity in the gen
eral market and prices for most articles ar
without any important change, as holders
are firm at our quotations.
The grain market is steady and we have
no change to make in our quotations fol
wheat.
Corn is firm at 5O952 cents. But little of
fering.
The provision market is excited and prices
are advancing, with prospect for still
further rise. In hams, especially, we may
look for strong advance. The stock Is al
most exhausted. Our readers may expect
to pay zoe for sugar cured hams within two
weeks.
The market for cheese is very excited and
prices advanced at the factories to lie on
on Saturday. The short grass crop and high
price of hay and fodder is given as the rea'
son for the advance in dairy products.
The wool market is without change
Trade Is dull and very few fieeces Offering,
vet the fact that farmers are holding back
their stock does not at all affect the
market. From the official report made
to the Secretary OF State Of Ohio, by
the Commissioner of Statistics, We
learn that there has been an increase OF
10000 head Of sheep In that State during
the past year. In making this estimate no
sheep under one year old has been taken
into the account. The effect Of this increase
on next years wool crop will be very de-
cided.
