Belding Market
Quotations

Mar. l, 1922.
Locad dealers report the following
changes in the markets this week.
Butter fat raised 1c. butter up 1c
and eggs are down 1c. The market
for eggs in Grand Rapids is very
weak, due to the fact that the de-
mand for them is small while here in
this city the demand is large and so
the price is higher than in Grand
Rapids and other large cities. Meat
dealers report the following changes
in meats for the week. Hogs dressed
are now 13c, having raised 1c since
last week. The other meats remain
practically the same as last week. In
the grain market wheat is the same
as last week. Rye has raised from
85c to 88c having raised &c. Oats
have raised &c; beans still continue
to raise, they now have gained the
$3.50 mark and are still going strong
Potatoes are $1.40 per cwt. having
dropped last week. Corn meal and
Corn and Oats, per cwt. are $1.75,
having dropped since last week.
Farmers! We change the markets
every Wednesday. Watch this column
it may mean dollars to you.

neighbor advised me to use Doan's
Kidney Pills and after procuring a
supply from Connell's drug store I
used them with the best of results.
