SEED POTATOES STRONG
Triumphs Go a Notch Up-MOOrhead
Market StronE-StOcks VIII Move
at Fair Prices Within Ten Days.

Chicago Packer: The seed potato
market: has assumed a strong position,
and values were again higher this
week on one or two varieties. Trium-
phs maintained their recent strength
and went up to as much as roc, load
ing station; the price then receded to
a range of 6o@65c, f; @. b. and opera
tors believe 1t will hold steady there
for some time.
Rose seed developed a firm feeling
this week, prices jumping about Be.
Demand started. up actively and oper-
ators found themselves in much the
same fix as they were in two weeks
ago when the inquiry for Triumphs
broke loose-they had very little Rose
seed on hand. Just as was the case
with Triumphs, they had loaded out
most hof their Rose as table stock, on
account Of the limited demand for it as
seed.
Ohios remained steady at former
prices, sandlands bringing around 75@
SOC. +. o. b., and Red Rivers selling
generally in the neighborhood of 500
S5c. Cobblers were in good shape at
75c, occasionally bringing a premium.
The general demand for seed stock
this week was very satisfactory. Most
orders were for cars Of mixed varieties
and the bulk of the. inquiry, ran to
Rose seed. Several operators this Week
expressed the opinion that Rose stock

They also declared that the seed po-
tato market would very likely continue
active and finish UP in good shape this
season.
Table Potatoes Drag Along.
A draggy market characterizes the
situation in table potatoes here *his
week. Prices on Dusty Rurals showed
a steady decline while the general run
of good stock sold at practically the
same figures as before. Demand was
light locally, and operators claimed
that the consumptive inquiry a drop

along the line.
While receipts were not heavy, they
were somewhat larger thar during the
previous few weeks, and created a
moderate accumulation on the tracks.
The market opened with 80, cars on
Monday, and during the rest Of the
week hovered around SO cars per day.
Offerings were Of good quality. 49,.
Good stock sold mainly at So 65c,
which has been the range of values
prevailing for some time now on this
market. Fancy Dusties, however drop.

On an f. o. b.. basis, operators still

Appetite for Mature.

North and South" by Stanton
Davis Kirkham; If anyone discovers
in himself a passion for the open, a
craving as for food and drink. let him
beware. for he snail find that like
other appetites it increases the more
it is fed, while it is never satifed.
The air and the sky, the sight. OF
trees and flowers, the voices of birds
are food and drink to one who has this
appetite for Mature. Each morning !
listen to the drumming OF woodpeck-
ers and trilling Of pine warblers as if
it twere all new and wonderful. ! would
be. drunk with it il / could take in
more--if / were covered with eyes and
ears; no ascommon drunkenness, but
a. .godlike intoxication with the print
tive world of beauty. The mere play
OF light on the oat fields, as the cululi
pass over the sun, affords one Of the
splendid experiences Of life and affects
me more deeply than the vents Of
history. Unless one is so affected he.
has not the feeling for the open and
will, not understand birds though he
should read all the books---gor the only
important book is closed to- him.
