ed woods must be sold ratbaly and
equitably with other woods pos
sessed or taken on consignment
by the consignee."
Demand for wool was still in
evidence today, though somewhat
less than of late. Premiums of 3S

went up onto the sidewalk and
struck Mrs Stolse in the back. She
refused to go to the hospital and
