Thb roads have been In wretched condition for 
travel this week, as the mild weather has softened 
Ibe snow, which Is tn many places deep, and the 
horses slump through, rendering it extremely difli- 
uuit and hazardous to reach town. In consequence 
of the bad condition of the roads very little has been 
diino In fnriu d irles. Buyers are picking up small 
lots of odds and ends, as they are offered at prices 
ranging from 8 to 18o., ucuoiding to qeuiitv, though 
eXlra grad< 1 * would bring rnoie money. The large
