very pleasantly entertained and found
old friends who were exceedingly
attentive, including Hon. G III.

but they are loud in praise of Denver
and her people, and especially Mr.. and
| Mrs. West and daughter and other
very kind friends they met at the
"WeSt-Court." They came home to
find Canton smiling in sunshine and
the thermometer at 60 in the shade.

No Woman Can Pass Her
Last Springs Hat
For a 1912 Model

We're the styles of this year not vastly different
from those of a year ago, Atill would it be impos-
sible to pass a hat of last years vintage as a 1912
product.
In this seasons hats, the materials and color
ings are new--the way trimmings are employed is
different-the whole effect is more cheerful and
more becoming. All of this years hats have more
trimmings; more lace, more silk, more flowers, and
the hats as an outcome are more beautiful. See
for yourself. What we have to show is altogether
new and different.

IN BOSTON MARKETS.
Butter Lower but Reaction Likely, as in
Some Markets 1t Dropped i6c.

Boston. Feb. 2l.-Prices of butter con-
| tinue to seek a lower level, not only in
| the local market, but in all OF the big
distributing centeTs OF the country. The
downward tendency. however. is far more
| pronounced in the outside markets than
it is here. IN Chicago extra creamery but
| ter is quoted at Wholesale at PC, which
price represents an almost perpendicular
drop of Ice from the high point of few
weeks ago. In New York. the wholesale
price OF the best creamery butter is 29c.
as compared with 42c, the highest figure
OF the winter reached only few weeks
ago
The local market at no time went
to as high a level as did the outside
markets and even now shows an inelina-
ton to act independent OF the lead of the
other markets. In wholesale way, fan
cy northern creamery is rated here at 32c
and the best western goods have not sold
lower than soc. But business is almost
at standstill and quotations at bes,
are merely nominal In jobbing way,
"a &c above these prices is asked and not
few dealers are inclined TO hold their
goods, rather than TO sell for less.
There snot very large stock of fancy
butter here and the stock on hand or to

is strong belief that the outside mar
kets have gone off rather too sharply and
that a reaction is likely. For these rea.
sons local dealers are not inclined to cut
their prices too radically.
The cheese market is as firm as ever
but, as has been minated lower prices
rule for eggs. The market is keeping
well sold up on eggs, but the invoices
suggest such large supply later in the

of business.

Florida 35,640 acres. total of 2,6ll,l40
acres. Partial detailed surveys of these
areas made by survey biologists show
very large quantity of this important
fertilizer, the value ranging up into the
billions of dollars. The director of the
survey, in his latest annual report, calls
attention to the need Of the enactment
of law that will permit development
of this resource, which is coming more
and more into use as an agricultural soil

Inflammation of the crop is caused by

When the crop is entirely emptied, give
