practically on a seed price basis and

ported this morning for field run
stocked sacked as high as SLIP and
growers could sell several carloads az
that price. The demand for bulk field
run is strong at /.
This morning prices at Hawley fol-
lowed the Moorhead market and were
advanced dime all along the line.
livery are reported, but growers re-
fuse to sell for less than $3.50. The
upward tendency of the market is
very marked and the impression is
that Red Rivers will be at a higher
premium before spring.
