aggravating the injury already done
through mold and making 1t all but
impossible to get the undamaged
crops under cover in a satisfactory
way.
In California similarly unfavorable
conditions are reported, the heaviest
rains ever known at this time of the
year having fallen this week in soma

has developed nothing new in connec-

to be more solid at the old quotations

elsewhere show an upward tendency.

record figure.
Butter advanced in the Yakima
market Monday to 40 cents, two
pound rolls for seventy-fiv which Is
