Hay and Feedstnfs.

There is no change in Feedstuffs.
The circular OF Somers & Co. says of Hay:
Matters continue rather unnteresting. with
improvement OF any kind, either in the de-
mand or prices. for any particular grade 1t
is true that receipts OF choice Wheat Hay are
somewhat light and it may be that this par
ing for a somewhat better figure within a
good quality red or black cultivated Oat Hay
other than these two particular varieties there
is no especial grade that is sought for or that
sells for fair price.
Reports from many localities are to the
effect that there is yet large amount OF Hay
to be marketed that cannot find storage room.
This makes look for a rather gloomy mar
ket until the Hay is all marketed under
speculation. Should the foreign demand or a
demand from the southern portion of the State
increase may possibly see a range of prices
81 or s3 per ton in advance of the present range.
This cannot be determined at the present time,
and the whole the prospect Is not at all en-
that after the rains set in prices will advance
enough to cover the expense Of storing, in

Boston Wool Market.

BOSTON, Sept. 1.-THE American Wool and
Cotton Reporter will say tomorrow:
The trade a whole reports quiet market
during the past week, but few houses have
consummated some good-sized deals, and as
result the total sales of the week aggregate
large total, house alone disposing OF about
2,OOO 600 pounds of wool, comprising l.SOO. 600
pounds of Montana Most houses report a
small business, but there is no diminution IN
the strength previously shown, and wools con-
tinue to be stifly held, generally at top i-S-
ures. Manufacturers, it appears, have been
testing the market for all It is worth. and are
doubtless satisfied that they have had strong
market to butt against. All cheap wools are
practically eliminated and old notify wools
have been pretty well cleaned and gone INTO
consumption so that the markets present
clean stock and price which is low to-day
compared with that of other countries, partlcu-
larly on fine woods. There has been consider
able looking around on the part of manufacture
ers and lots of sample bags have been taken.
which, it IS believed will lead TO a good bust
ness in the course OF week or two. Manufac-
turers are buying only such woods as they neeQ,
however, and little speculative tendecy Is
noticeable in the market to-day.
The sales of the week in Boston amounted TO
100 500 pounds domestic and 100000 pounds
foreign, q total of 6,640, ,000 against total OF
g. 955 900 for the previous week and total OF
SIS 600 for the corresponding week last year
Sales since Janury /, 1899. amounted 10 49,
377 500 pounds, against 7s,S040lo pounds last
year at this time.
