BOSTON PRODUCE MARKET.

The general butter situation is about the

rule in the interior and the market here is
firm, but buyers refuse to respond to the full
rates aske for fresh receipts. The result is

goods, while the June stock is meeting with
sumption How long this condition OF at

VIII probably run along until the best of the
June stock is used up, or until prices of the

The ruling price yesterday for fine fresh
Northern creamery was % cents in tubs and
some receivers to get half IA cent more, but
in almost every instance 1t was unsuccessful.
BUYERS found plenty of sellers at % cents,
and refused to pay any more. On the basis
OF cost in the country 2a cents would not
be too high, but that dld not have much in
huence here. And in order to command "a
cents the quality had to be first rate, and
several lois not strictly extra mad to be sold

Some receivers put their butter away rather
than make any concessions. Dairy lots
meet with fair sale at 20 to p cents.
The country markets on cheese have taken
another upward turn, AMI fully half cent
more has been paid than last week This
will necessitate corresponding rise here,
but buyers will probably he slow to respond.
Sales up to yesterday were on a basis of l21a
cents for best September twins, but receivers
were not offering many more under l2si to 10
cents This IS 3to4 cents higher than the
selling rate last year ut this time, and is
above the rate for several years.
good demand for strictly fresh Western
eggs continues to be reported, AMI few
fancy selected lots sold as high rs p cents
yesterday. But for most offered 90 to 81
cents was a top rate, and a large portion of
the receipts were not good enough to com
mand over 20 cents. Eastern fresh were in

The Wellington enterprise. [volume] (Wellington, Ohio) 1899-1900, 1899-11-01
As Viewed from the Front.

A succession of swift and powerful at
tacks on the defenses Of the two party
hOrds has been made the past week on
the strategic points Of Dayton, Columbus
Akron and Tiflin Cleveland and Cincin-
natl being already taken), and each has
been crowned with success. The enemy
has been driven back, his outer works
have been captured, and the demOraliz-
ed fragments Of his armies are huddled
behind their last line Of entrenchments,
every jack of them knowing that when
the final charge is made on November Z,
everything will be carried with rush.
1t is now proposed that the two wings Of
this defeated army-They are both left
wings-be combined in order to make
the best possible defense. But the NOR
ais and spirit Of the troops are hoplessly

broken, the officers are timid, and thou
sands Of deserters and stragglers are
reported daily.
Besides there is a general confusion
Of orders, for Major General Hanna and
Brigadier-General Foraker are urging
their followers to move over to the sup
port Of MajOr-General Mclean, while
LcLean has issued like order to his
followers to sOrtie out in Hanna's sup
port. In consequence there is almost
complete decentralization among the
entrenched partisans, and all are pray
ing for speedy termination OF the cam
paign. The staff and brigade officers
are afraid to follow orders from head
quarters regarding the shifting Of troops
from one command to the other, for fear
that the NOn-Partisans, who are keeping
a close watch, will capture the whole
force detached.
The victorious army in front Of the en-
trenchments, flushed with the pride OF
initial successes is strongly massed,
alert and ready for the coming effort.
No one doubts that by November every
point of vantage will have been taken
and that by January headquarters will
have been established in Columbus.
The Wellington enterprise. [volume] (Wellington, Ohio) 1899-1900, 1899-11-01

The republican press is unanimous on
the point that a vote for Jones is a
vote for Mclean. The democratic prsSs
is equally unanimous on the proposition
that vote for Jones is a vote for Hanna.
The Nom -Partisans are every bit as un-
animous that vote for Jones is a vote
against both the fraudulent machines
and for the best interests of the people.

GOOD aS EH E.IT.

There is going to be so much and such good corn in this country this year that the makers of whiskey, glucose and starch aren't worrying about the quan- tlty, quality or cost of their raw ma- terial." The makers of ''johnny-cake," /" corn pones' and all the good things made out of corn meal are also able to look forward to a comfortable win- ter. They and all those who eat the good things will be encouraged to perse- were by some facts which have been found by Professor Wiley, chemist of the Department of Agriculture. He combats the opinion that corn is less digestible and less nutritious than wheat In experiments made upon anil mals the nutritive value of corn has been distinctly brought out. A bushel of wheat in one set of experiments pro- duced on an average 137 pounds of pork, while 8 bushel of corn produced 12.3 pounds. But when the difference in  weight between the two is considered the actual gain is about the same in each case, and, calculated upon the market price of wheat and corn, it costs $4.01 to produce 100 pounds increase in pork by feeding wheat and $2S5 to pro- duce the same increase with Indian corn. In point of digestibility for hu- man beings, which is something rather harder to reach by practical tests, the conclusion is offered, based on what is known as digestion coetticients of wheat and other grains, that Indian corn is not inferior in this respect to wheat.
 There Is no prejudice in this country against eating corn, as there is in Eu- rope but it is cheering to know that corn is as good for human beings as it tastes
