There is nothing particularly interesting to
note in tine wholesale market. Wheat is a trifie
off, due to lack of export demand and easier
country markets, by reason of rain in some of
the dryer sections of the winter wheat belt.
Flour is steadily held. Corn quiet and steady

Washington as a Sportsman.

In the biography of George Washing
ton by Professor Woodrow Wilson
(Harper's) occurs the following de-
scription of Washington as sportsman:
Washington loved horses and dogs
with the heartiest sportsman of them
all. He had u great gusto for stalking
deer with George Mason Oh the broad
forested tracts round Gunston Hall aud
liked often to take gun or rod after
lesser game when the day fell dull,
but best of all he loved horse's back
and the hard ride for hours together
after the dogs and crafty quarry-a
horse it put man to his points to ride,
q country where the running was only
for those who dared. His own mounts
could nowhere be bettered in Virginia.
There was full blood of Araby in his
noble Magnolia aud as good hunting
blood as was to be found in the colony
in his Blueskin and Ajax, Valiant and
Chinkling. His hounds he bred so
fiew'd, so sanded, SO matched in speed
and habit, that they keEt always tune
and pace together III tI1e field Twas
first to the stables fer him always in
the morning and then to the kennels. {"
There were other pleasures. too, i'll
the life of ii country gentleman Of Vir-
ginia, and Washington did net scorn
them.
