HENRY CLAY'S JACK WAS KEN
lucky MULES FATHER

During the Administration of
John Quincy Adams and Henry Clay
as his Secretary of State, Clay came
into the possession of a lot on La
fayette Square, which was just be-
coming the fashionable residential
section of the City of Washington.
By the practice of his profession Gin
which Mrs. Clay said ''Mr. Clay al
ways won") he traded the lot to
Commodore Rogers for a jackass
which the Commodore brought from
Spain. Clay sent the jack to his
celebrated stock farm, Ashland, near
Lexington, and the mules for which
Kentucky is famous owe their origin
to this braying grandsire of Lafay-
cite Square.

WEEKLY REVIEW BUTTER, EGGS
AND POULTRY MARKET

Cream deliveries during the week
were lighter and prices are ruling
higher for butterfat and butter.
The tendency for further material
advances at this time will probably
be checked by Withdrawals from
stocks.
Receipts of fresh eggs are smaller,
with good demand for fine stock.
Heavier movement is noted from
storage stocks to take care of the
deficiency in fresh receipts. There
is still large surplus in storage to
be disposed of.
Poultry movement is about nor
NAL for the season, and prices show
but little change during the week.
