On the decline there was heavy buying
of December by local commission
house supposed TO be acting for eastern
shorts and purchasing of March by an
eastern shipping concern. There was
some fear Of further congestion in De
ccmbcr. and while many considered that
the recent advance was about all the
market was entitled to, there was eau
tion in the selling side. Receipts were

December opened at $21s to S2.16,
against $2.1Sh at the end yesterday,
and later sold at S2.17. March was
quoted at S2.11 to so. .101a at the outset.

MONMOUTH C0UNTY'S
POPULATION 104,906

The new census figures show the
population of Monmouth county to
be 104, 900, an increase of 10.172 or
1917 per cent. over 1910. At this
rate 1t is seen that that county has
been growing at the rate Of 1000
additional inhabitants each year,
and in view of the fact that the
greater part of the land is devoted
to farming and that there are no
very large cites it must be consider
ed as a successful rate of growth.
