feeling that there is an eager market
waiting to purchase the Offering and
with his pocket already lined with

gina farmer feels in the mood for a
real Christmas. The season from
every standpoint bids fair to be an
unusually good one. the crop Is not
only large. but the general quality
AT the weed is above the average. The
crawning touch Is the great demand
that keeps the prices up for the
planter.
While the sales for the week Just
closed were not nearly SO large as
those oil the preceding week. there
are several good explanations for
the deficiency. In the first place, there
were only four sales DAYS this week
az compared 10 five TOR last, and az
a secondary consideration. ii must 10
remembered that the weather was
not nearly SO propitious as that OF
the preceding week. The sales for
this week in the warehouses of Rich

horhood OF 100000 pounds as COM
pared with something over million
pounds IT the week before.
