The circular Of Scott. Magner & Miller says
of hay: -
The market continues along in the same
Oyerstocked condition which it has been in for
weeks and at this time we can see no signs
OF any nrmness in any grade Of hay, nor do
we see any prospect OF any improvement what
soeyer IN prices There seems to be no in
terest Whatsoever shown by either dealers or
consumers and everything drifts along from
day to day IN very uninteresting way
consigned hay is constantly being shipped 10
this market in large quantities BY those who
have held all through the season looking for
fancy prices. This hay is being sold for what
1t viii bring on this market when il arrives
as the majority Of cOnsignees are unwilling To
take this hay for their own account being
stocked uD with their own hay to a greater or
less extent and are unwilling TO burden them
selves with the hay Of others. Under these
conditions large concessions In prices have to be
made daily 70 effect sales. Crop prospects are
still very favorable
