storage movement la taking what
ever iiirplui butter U now being
offered locally. Increase In the
number of storage operators has
been somewhat greater than normal.
Many who have never before stored
are this year operating on account
of the extreme low costs.
Demand for butter appears suit
able to take care or offerings at
prevailing prices. There la some talk
of a surplus, but this appears chiefly
coming from those who are not in
- cllned to look with favor upon the
newer operators In the storage game.
General price of butter fat Is un
changed and Is practically uniform
throughout the territory.
General egg market trading con
tinues to reflect steadiness. Demand
for case count supplies appears able
to absorb offerings and prices are
established on a rather firm basis
considered the market for graded
stock.
Conditions within the live chicken
market continue more or less oi
steady character. Low prices have
stimulated consumption with a cor
responding Increase In the move
ment. There Is a fairly steady tone in
the market for dressed turkeys. A
few really worth while hens are
coming and selling up to 18c lb

Palmer and George Tretohler ex
pressed prejudice against Professor
EiiRlehardt and that the district at
torney's office had promised to pay
the expenses of Csrl SMider from
California and had failed to do so.
The st Me contended that tha plea
was far fetched, that no promises
were made to return Bteider as a wit
ness at county expense, and that the
attack on the Jurors alleging preju
dice was dlsgruntlement of counsel
at losing the case.
In the Fehl case t,he defense claims
that the court in Its Instructions
failed to distinguish between Roy
Parr as a game warden and as a citi
zen, as far as damages were con
cerned. The plaltiff claims that the
instructions of the court show thai
the court made the required distinc
tion and did not err In this particu
lar. Circuit Judge Norton announced
yesterday that he would devote Vie
balance of this week to the prepar
ing of opinions and rulings in cases
pending.
