SPRING LAMBS
TAKE A RISE
PRICE GOES TO SIX CENTS DE.
SPITE THE EARLY OUTLOOK
FOR GLOOMY SEASON..

Lambs have taken a sensational
rise within the last two or three Gays
much to the delight of the farmers
of Maury county who have not al
ready sold or contracted to sell. This
is also very agreeable news to the
dealers who have bought at a smaller
price for delivery this month. Lambs
are worth six cents this morning with
the market strong. Whether or not
there will be a further rise is of
course speculative but the indications
are that the market will not be any
weaker at least for day or two.
A large number o. lambs have been
contracted for delivery at FIVE and a
fraction cents. These contracts will
of course inure to the benefit of the
buyers but the farmers who sold will
lose But this is a sort of evening up
process for last year when the mar
ket was high and the DEALERS were
frequently caught upon falling price.
The increase in price Of a cent a
pound means about seventy-fve cents
a lamb, and that is a big sum for a
sheep county like Maury.

The latest statistics of this country

morning, when he fell asleep. the Pope
had the best rest that he has had
for several nights. The breathing was
more nearly normal than at any time
since the illness began. In the early
hours OF the day the temperature
dropped many degrees.

Those in attendance find difficulty in
building up the strength OF the pontiff
because OF his distaste for food.
The pontiff was undoubtedly some
what relieved OF his pains to-day. but
his organism seems unable to combat
the general weakness. For this rea-
son, although he was able to sit up
this morning, he soon afterwaro re-
turned to his bed. Later he again ex-
pressed a wish to try the armchair.
and again was permitted to sit up.
He said the change from bed to chair
and from chair to bed soothed and re-
freshed him and made his pains more
bearable.
At noon the Popes temperature
again rose to 100 but fell from 100 al
noon to nearly normal. At the same
time his pains We're less severe and
the Pontiff was able to take nourish-
