fore on spring business. Perhaps the
heaviest business done in any line has
been that booked in iron and steel in
all its forms. And what is true of this
generally regarded barometer OF trade
is also. largely the case in cotton goods
OF all kinds. In addition, wooden dress
goods, hosiery and knit fabrics, linens
to a smaller extent silks, and copper
hardware, rubber goods, lumber, farm
machinery and long list of other pro-
ducts are in excellent demand. Far
from affecting future trade, the high
level Of all prices seems to stimulate
operations, and close analogy to
past experience in stock markets is af
forded in the active buying at advanc
ing prices now witnessed. All sections
OF the community seem to be prosper
GUS and spending more freely than
ever before. Three features with a
bearing upon the future are labor
prices and money. Scarcity of the
first, thereby favoring insistent de
mands, and the higher tendency of the
second, may push matters to point
where production and consumption
alike might be checked The strain

MARKET SALE
Highest Price Paid on the Market is
$500 for Team-one Single Horse

Year is Good.

From Saturdays Daily.
With prices in the horse market
holding firm, $50 head of horses were
disposed of yesterday at the horse
sale held at the Morris Williams sale
barn on Myrtle street. The sale of
last week was not held owing to the
holidays.
The grade of horses On the market
yesterday was the draft horse. Very
few roadsters werein evidence as
there Is little demand for them at this
time of year. Aside from a few road
sters there were few mules. Mules
are not bringing the top price as
there seems to be little demand for
them. 1t is little early for the
spring railroad work. as well as the
farm work. consequently the price Of
mules is not as strong as in other
seasons of the year.
y The highest price paid yesterday at
the market was for large sorrel
team of draft horses This team
brought $500. Another fancy price
was for single draft, which was
$235. One Of the features of the sale
