was 12c higher than Friday. 24c high

ceived here Saturday, making a few
over $4,000, the smallest weeks re-.
ceipts In over three months. Prices
Saturday were 5@15c higher, with the
market best in the middle. Half the
packers were practically out of the
market, but the shipping demand was
sufficiently brisk to absorb the cream
Of the offerings Packers bought the
poorer grades freely and everything
sold from first hands. Mixed packing
sold at s5.S0@605, bulk at s5.95@6.O5.
Chicago's receipts last week were over
over $4,000 smaller than two years
ago. Shipments for the week increas-
ed 10000 over yea. ago and 12,100
over two years ago, making the weeks
net supply for packers about 10000
smaller than year ago and nearly
10000 smaller than two years ago.
This big drop in the net supply and an
unusually good demand for hog pro-
ducts forced packers in the market and
with eastern shippers, such good buy
ers it was comparatively easy for
statesmen to force prices to the highest
point in over two years. Only once in
about twenty years hive prices ruled
higher than they are at present for
this season Of the year.

Blowers in sciIlx Ialnnda,

The Scilly Islands, as most people know. supply an immense quantity of the flowers which are retailed in Lon don and other cities during the spring and summer.
 The flower industry" said a recent visitor, Supports nearly all the inhabi- tants of the islands. The flowers in what are called the Tresco gardens are magnificent sight. Nowhere else in England are to be found such trees, shrubs and flowers.
 There are plants and shrubs from Australia, New Zealand, the Cape, China, Japan and the West Indies They include pines, aloes, gum trees, giant camellias, azaleas palms and tropical ferns of every variety The whole make up a scene of fairylike splendor I doubt whether there Is anything like it elsewhere in the world. Amid this wealth of bloom and leafage is a ruined abbey, and no ruins could stand in a more beautiful and romantic place
 From the first of February until the last day of May, from fifty to 100 tons of flowers are shipped to Penzance every week from the flower farms, even the humblest of which is a sight worth travelling miles to see"
