Hay and FeedStnfS.

There were heavy receipts Of $685. sacks Of
Bran from Washington. but the market showed
Receipts Of Hay were lighter and the mar
ket continued unsettled.
The circular Of Somers & Co. said OF Hay
Shipments Of Hay have been increasing dur
ing the past week. the total for the week just
ending amounting 10 3400 tons, an increase OF
600 tons over the week preceding There is
Stfii quite quantity Of old Hay coming, al
though each day brings an increase in the
proportion OF crop. As is generally
known. the 4th Of July IS the date for changing
over TO the new crop with many consumers
Therefore. although there is some difference
in the price between old Hay and new at pres
ent, yet believe that within a week or ten
days there will be practically no distinction
between the two kinds.
The most interesting matter to be con-
sidered at present is that OF the prices 20 be
established on new Hay for the next two
months. Many farmers seem disposed to hold
for high prices. and 1t has been reported that
meetings have been held in some districts for
the purpose Of establishing a price at which
the local crop shall be held We fear that
with the comparatively light demand and the
rather bountiful crop that all such arrange
ments will be useless this season and that Hay
must sell this year at somewhat lower prices
than IL brought last season.
Good new Wheat Hay is coming quite
freely and although some choice grades have
been bringing from So to S12 so yet the pre-
vailing price on good quality is from $40 so
to $11 go Tame Oat Is bringing from 50 so
