They are beginning to| | realize now that they will find no relief in this | | connection until the new crop is ready for . | market, and many of them are now prepared | to buy in their regular manner. The foreign inquiry coutinues, but thus far no orders of any consequence have been placed in this mar- ket. The United States Government has just | pufchased a small order of Hay for immediate shipment, but will not open bids for the new | 2500-ton order until the 15th of Avril. In all | probability this latter order will be placed in | this market, and, with our already depleted there is no reason why the pres- | ent range of prices should not be maintained | until the new crop begins to be marketed in | Zood quantities. 14 16 50; Oat, g(aniofi‘lz 50@13 50; Al!llh; ton.
