The best Information ob tainable shows that tho foreign mar ket Is qulto ns bora or clover seed as Is our own.

This Is a time to look abend, nnd for American farm ers to got the benefit of the high prices, beforo Europo has been able to got back to normal production and tho prices rail. Watch Quality of Henl.
