HAY AND STRAW IMPORT

It was decided at the meeting
called last Saturday evening to
order a few carloads Of oat straw
"a trial order. The price. in.
cluding freight to Askov. will be
close to $l2 ton, perhaps q lit.
tie less if the present offers
stand good and no shrinkage oc.
cur. Definite orders were placed
for 4 carloads by the few pres
ent at the meeting. Those who
want oat straw on the above
condition must place definite or
ders for amount wanted, prefer
ably this week, and it will be
distributed in proportion from
arrival of first car until all is
distributed.
We are assured that only nice
fresh oat straw will be baled and
loaded.
We had some offers for up
land hay that will come to about
SIS a ton. The straw must be
paid cash on delivery at track
here.
Later-I had an offer Tuesday
morning somewhat lower. for
oat straw. It looks as tho $11
will be nearer the price it can
be laid down for in Askov-part
Of it at least.
