the market will recuperate and that
wheat will yet reach the dollar mar
This opinion seems to be general among
both the buyers and the millers.
There were more loads of ates on the
market yesterday than there had been
for some time. yet the price was lower
than it has been for month. There
were probably twenty loads sold yester-
