by wire yesterday Afternoon say that
creamery Is Arm at 20 cents and that the
market is practically weather PROPOSE
tlon. This opinion is based on the re-
ports Of continued hot weather now rag
Ing IN the central west, and the reports
emphasize the condition by stating that IL
the hot weather shall continue for some
time there Will be little butter TO ship
this year. While this Is true at present
big butter handlers and makers in the
east are also, reporting that grass is
knee deep and that the moisture in the
ground Is sufficient to keep the grass
from drying UP for the next three weeks.

dealers are pursuing their way and not
storing above the normal needs but ad-
NIT that If the conditions become worse
they will take every pound for storage. to

and winter season. Regarding stock in
