Horses Of Great VILLAGE farm

A dispatch from East Aurora, y. Y,
says: since the sale of the Village
Farm property TO Henry p Burgard
end John Johnson. of Buffalo, ten days
ago. a movement has been started by
the horsemen and business men of
this place TO preserve the horse GENE
terry on the rear end of the farm and
TO erect a monument TO the memory
OF Mambrino King, Hal Pointer,
Prince Regent. Estabella, Robert J.

In Detroit Jake played his first bes'

But Jake believed that there was a
greater future for basketball in De-

To the littlc Y. NJ. G, A. gymnasium.
He allowed his membership TO lapse
and changed his allegiance TO the De.

rather coo'ly welcomed. With him

SEELITTLE CHANGE
IN MARKET PRICES
Supply Liberal in All
Branches-Butter Situa-
ton a Problem.

Produce market conditions this week
are expected to change but little from
last week. Generally speaking. supply
promises to be liberal in all divisions OF
the market, which means that prices
should be practically the same.
Calves and lambs come first on the
uncertain list, as far as supply goes. as
harvesting conditions make shipments
irregular. Last week receipts of this
class Of live stock fell considerably be-
low expectations. The result wes that
the price of ce-.ts on each did not
change during the week Indications
are for another active market. although
It viii be gagged entirely by receipts
Just what the butter market will re-
solve itself into is also proving some
what of q problem. Demand for storage
purposes Stacked last week, and the
price went down. An advance in the
present quotation is not expected, with
chances favoring the market remaining
stationary at old prices.
Shipments Of berries are expected to
increase and the price on raspberries
will probably experience a considerable
reduction during the week Blackber-
ries, however, are not expected to go
much lower than the present price.
Watermelons may experience a slight
reduction.
Spring chickens should aga In meet with
q firm market, as at no time last week
did they indicate a tendency toward
weakening. Eggs promise to hold firm
at old quotations, with considerable
'1oss or however on stale stock.
