Countries with stable currencies," ]"
he continued, have been placed at a
disadvantage in their home and foreign
markets in competing with countries
with deprecated currencies. As a re-
suit there has been in the last six
months a marked increase not only in
tariffs, but also in the development of
system of quotas and licenses remi-
niScent of conditions Immediately fol-
lowing the World War.

IRREGULAR TREND
Market Tone Less Confident.
Potato Quotations Slightly
Weaker.

Tone Of the produce market vas
somewhat less confident near the end
Of February, says the United States
Department of Agriculture, Bureau Of
Agriculture Economies, Market News
Service. Carlot receipts are rather
liberal and demand quiet. Prices were
holding fairly well, but markets were
irregular on most lines and slightly
weaker for potatoes. Onions and car
rotS fully maintain their recent strong
position. Cabbage declined in some
MldWeStern markets, but gained in q
rev Eastern cities. Apple markets still
presented the slightly weak and uneven
appearance of the past two months.
Although the course Of potato prices
was fairly steady during February the
trend was by no means uniform
throughout the country and prices
were maintained better at Midwestern
country shipping points than in the
East. After the middle of the month
most price changes throughout the
country were slightly downward, but
the shifting seldom amounted to more
than cents per 100 pounds. The new
feature near the end of the month
was the increase in shipments from
Middle Western producing sections,
bringing the total some days to above
1000 carloads and resulting in larger
holdings on track in the principal
markets
Jobbing prices of Maine Green
Mountains hold about the same range
as for several weeks past at S5 cents
to Sl.05 per 100 pounds in Eastern
cities and tops of SIPS to SI.5O in
Southern markets. Long Island Green
Mountains bring about 81 80. New York
and Pennsylvania standard varieties
sell about 10 cents lower than Maine
Green Mountains at a general range
OF 30 cents to $1.00. Trend of the
chicago carlot market shows a slightly
weaker tone with not many sales above
30 cents per 100 pounds. Sales at
Chicago for delivery in March showed
no special confidence, being quoted at
range Of 80 cents to IS cents.
Most dealers in Western New York
reported a limited demand and dun
trading conditions. Sales In the main
held between SO cents and 65 cents.
Cash prices paid to growers varied
from 20 cents to 80 cents per bushel.
mostly 25 cents. Pennsylvania. Ohio.
