arrivals would hardly command more

demand of the trade. until the now
crop arrives. The supply from the
eastern counties is gradually decreas-

the crop has been received. Prices

PROVISIO Provision mar
ket has exhibited a strong feeling and
prices have materially advanced for
Western meats. The advance was
principally owing to the small focl1 III
market and to the tirmness of tletrade
in the Western and Northern markets.
Our private reports from thesi markets

production OF the past year alows such
an increase over last year that 1t is
thought that the new seasO, will open
