Hors.—It is Intimated that some country sales have 
been mode ftt 20®22o. for fair quality goods. This 
ilrop iu prices Is attributed to a disposition among 
growers to realize funds to carry on Spring work. 
The market here Is not affected a great, deal. In fact, 
the decline tn the interior gives dealers a chance to 
replenish some stock that was wanted fora certain
