shown by the fact that the rain instead OF
weakening it actually rendered it stronger py
improving business prospects. If good crops
are assured trade will at once pick up and
more Hay will be needed. Again. stocks are
too light and the demand for the southern
part of the State is too brisk for a decline at
the moment Curiously enough OF the ngnt

something exceptional 1t met with a good
