Hay and FeedstufYs

Receipts of hay fell of sharply Yesterday TO
29o tons, all cars The market continued firm
There was no change in feedstu1s.
The circular of Somers Co. says of hay:
Shipments of hay to market continue to
increase, the total for the week ending today
amounting to $3.50 tons. in comparison with
3.570 last week and with 2.210 tons for the
week preceding that. There is some tendency
the part of many operators to withhold their
shipments, anticipating still higher prices. but
the car situation is easier. many back
ders for hay shipments now being filed
which has resulted in the increase in arrivals
Many consumers are still impressed with the
advisabllity of putting away a good supply
of haY, so all arrivals have been absorbed very
readily.
.'There has been considerable discussion dur
of hay on hand in the state. and more partlcu-
larly iu the country directly contributary 20
San Francisco. Although very accurate figures
can be had as to the amount in public ware
houses and approximately In private barns, vet
1t seems to be absolutely impossible to estl-
mate what the demand will he, at this
to speculate on the eventful outcome 1t is
now definitely known that much aid can be
offered by our surrounding states so although
we must admit that the future of the market
will incline toward higher prices, yet we do
not think any definite stand should be taken
In this direction. We believe that for the
moment all do is to await develop
