HIGH MARK OF OLD POTATOES
NOT PLACED AT ONE
DOLLAR
Every Indication Points to "Spuds"
Reaching the Enormus Price of $1.10
Per Bushel—Farmers Should Take
Notice of Lofty Quotation.
'V
The man with the cry of dollar
upuds in his throat will have a chance
test hig luqg capacity to its fullest
xtent before all the old potatoes to
local markets are gone.
The old potato is still king in Ot
nwa and is selling for the fancy
ce of $1 per bushel in the local
lolesale markets. And the story is
•t closed at this, for the prospects
the price of "King Potato" is that
will reach the still more golden
rice of $1.10 before long.
Potato growers in this section of
-ie country and outlying districts are
jeginning to come out of their Rip
Van Winkle slumber and realize that
there is some profit in spuds and are
giving more of their attention to
hem.
Other prices in the local markets

SMALL HOR8ES DU(,L,
Light, Plain Offerings for Southern
and Local Account Cheap.
Chicago, Jueb 6.—The advent of the
summer tradjflk heralded by lighter
receipts an^jfsPh urgent orders. While
the loeal itside attendance of
dealers i? mal nronortiona. there
Is no keen competition to the move
ment of trade that would firm prices.
The decline of two weeks ago holds
firm, as demand Is too feeble for all
classes to stimulate higher values and
trade is characterized by a slow move
ment without quotable fluctuations.
The arrivals show decrease to 1,290 for
the first two days of the current week
as compared with 1,581 for the same
period last week and 1,486 for the cor
responding dates last year. With
nominally 300 less offerings for the
first two days this week than a week
ago trade has failed to rally to a high
er level of prices. Small horses of
medium quality are particularly dull
and slow sale at a decline of nominally
?lo@25 from the prices current a
month ago for southern account. Many
of the offerings clear at $50@70, with
outlet narrow at the' decline. The lead
ing demand Is for draft and driving
classes, with the general movement
slow at the following prices:
to fair, to best.
