While It is true that the bis- rTftck.m will be forced to buy the bulk of their Immediate requirements from Nebraska points, smaller killers -will be forced upon the local market and unless ar rivals Increase materially the outcome, so far as prices are concerned, should be most pleasing to shippers.
