ST. PAUL TRADE
Weekly ReUieto of the Wholesale Markets
OFFICE OF THE GLOBE,
Gr

ST. PAUL, March i9.
The bad roads of the past week have affected
to some degree every branch of trade, but the
produce market perhaps felt the depression
more than any other. Deliveries of grain of
all kinds have been unusually light, and hay for
two OF three days literally scarce. The
bright, sunny weather and drying winds have
considerably improved travel, and farmers have
been better able to get to market, Grain has
IN consequence been freer in deliveries. The
bad state of the roads could not but have re-
tarded collections, and ''slow,'' with ''very
slow, was the ADJUSTMENT from all quarters
early in the week. During the last few days
there has been some slight improvement.
The wheat market during the week has been
somewhat unsteady, but always with an up
ward tendency. It is thought by some that it
will be kept where it ought to be, at 81 90, fol-
some time to come, providing no startling war
news from Europe sends it away up. It is to-
day quoted at $1.02.
There is a fair supply of corn and a fair de-
mand at old quotations.
Oats are becoming very scarce with good,
steady demand. The sales during the week
have been but fair, owing to the scarcity OF
oats in the market. There are at present but 8
few car loads in the city, and farmers are buy
ng freely. This demand for oats is owing to the
unprecedented rush out to new breakings an6
farms in all parts of the State. To-day a gen
tleman bought car load at zoe to send ont Il
his farm on the Northern Pacific railroad, ane
wanted more.
There has been next to nothing doing in bar
ley; the demand has been light and that offered
only of inferior quality, none hardly reachin,
No. 2.
The weather is too warm for ground feed anG
buyers are scarce; but for bran there is gooc
demand at a considerable increase of price
Sll.0O@12.00. There is no inquiry for shorts
and corn meal is very dull
Butter is still lower than ever. Advices from
the East say there is butter stored in ever,
cellar and Granny, and it has not found bottom
prices yet.
| There is a good demand for eggs at l1@1:
cents, and they are very scarce.
There Is very little or no poultry coming in
reasonable lots would sell readily at quotations
Wild ducks and geese are very scarce; tn
former are worth 3O@5Oc per pair the latte
from 75c to $1.OO each.
There is no improvement in -four nor an,
changes to make in quotations.
There has been quite revival in the ha.
market and prices are higher, owing to th
scarcity from bad roads. Wild hay is wort
$8.OO@10.00, and tame $l2. OO@14.OO per ton.
j The stock market has not exhibited nue.

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.

Summary of the Important Pn,ts of the
Financial Statement and liabilities of
the County.
meeting of the board of county commits
s1oners was held yesterday, the main object
being to consider the financial statement of
the county.
On motion the valuation of county lots
and buildings was fixed at $S5OOO. The
financial statement was received,
and motion adopted refer
ring it to the printing committee
with instructions to let the printing to the
lowest bidder. Col. Walker, Of the Lumber
man, and H. E. Newton, of the Minnesota
FARMER, were on hand to protest against
combining the bids to Blakely and Stevens,
publishers of daily papers. They believed
the whole matter to be an outrageous fraud
IN excluding dozen or more papers in the
county, with equally large circulation, from
bidding. No action was taken with regard
to the matter. The important and interest
ing points in the financial statement,
as presented, will be found
in the following summary, which shows the
assets of the county to be 1924, 59S.82 over
and above liabilities, as well as other items.
