makers of Chicago: 1--WE have shipped
during the past ten days more than 100
carloads of No. 2 and No. 3 cans, such

toes. The prices nave in no cases
exceeded S2.l5 per hundred for No. 2
and $3.50 for No. 3. In September.

or rather, exactly the same size, kind
and quality-at 1915 to 1925 for No. =
and 81 to $4.25 for No. 3, and these
were the regular market prices both
here and in the East a year ago.
