mond and vicinity; Conservatism in
purchasing for future deliveries is a
notable feature In present trade con-
ditions although some lines are ac-
tive. Heavy rains and flood conditions
have had some effect on trade. due
largely to crippled transportation.
Crop reports are encouraging and in
diCations are that little fruit has been
killed by frost. Little spring plant
ing has been done but weather has
favored excellent opportunity for pre-
pairing the soil. Retail trade us fair.
Implement dealers and fertilizer
manufacturers report business in ex-
cess of last year. Collections are very
