Potato Market

Some Improvement is noted in the
demand locally with many outside in
quiries. Sales Of several carloads sort
ed and sacked at $1.25 have been re-
wagonloads at warehouses, but choice
stock from cellars would probably
bring nickel above quotations. Many
of the outside inquiries are from the
west.
