The seven .main changes can be  briefly summarized as follows;  The abolition of the flyingtackle  interlocked interference as well as  pushing, and pulling the man with  the ball and the longitudinal lines  on the; field; the  division  of 'the'  time into  four fiteen-minule per- ���������  iods;   the   limitation   of   the   forward pass to twenty yards; giv-  -|-1~ tho ends right-of-way in the  twenty-yard zone in getting under  punts ; alloAving players taken from  *he.game for slight injuries to a-  gain enter.  Coaches generally are supposed  to bq liberal. Some are of the .opinion the game will be benefitted.

I certainly  think it advisable for ahippejrs-  to use a uniform box, leaving no  cause for complaint and misleading, or giving dissatisfaction 'among buyers by using different sizes  of boxes aa they are doing at th������  present time, Pears are :in great  demand and pri.'es are high, sppes  ofg.ood quality and pack are in  goo<% demand and fairly high prices, *auad although some quotations  frrora American points are low,  good stock is fetching reasonably-  high prices here\ Apples in New  York state are reported as being  bought at- $3.00 per bbl with the  expectation tbfot prices wild, advance in the' near (future.. Prices  for Ontario apples' as the, season ad  vanees are risin,g with a very short  crop.of poor quality. Reports coming to hand from various sources  statel the East> must idraw largely  on the West for their supply ;of  apples this,season, and for. these,  and other, reasons/ I ��������� would advise  B.

The fact that the  exhibition   will  be   hel'd'm"   this  city next week also had its effect  many, of the farmers holding their  produce back in anticipation "���������". of  a  larger  market  and consequent  better prices next week. The main  result  was   that  the  quantity of  produce offered was less, than usual although trading was brisk.  The- -meat market was rather  more than a good average altho  in comparison with recent weeks  a little slack. There was comparir  tively. little '.meat offering at whole  sale, the atoek ;raisers " holHLng  their animals back in anticipation  of better prices Jater.

Although  the demandf or chickens was strong  yet the supply was more, than.suf f i  cient   to   cover   all requirements  and prices accordingly riilfed -low-  Jer than last week. The majority  of the( birdss offered were spring  chickens, for Which $7 a dozen was  being asked and $6 received. Broiler!? sow from $4.50 to,$5.50.  Fruit was represented almost entirety by apples. The supply ,was  not large and alti offered were read  ily. disposed of. Prunes, 'many of  which havei been offered -lately,  weite1 entirely absent. A few dam-  eohs were, offered and sold ,at five  cents a pound. A o'quajntifty- ,of.  blackiberrieis retailed at three l,bs.  for 25 cents.  Pojfcatoes iwere plentiful  and in  bulk ,so3d fat $20 a ton, in smaker  quantifies at v$l a sack. Vegetables were handled in smaJ/1 quantities-and realized good prices.  Tomatoes sold wholesale at 20  pounds for $i.40, and best picked  potatoes at $1.2.5 a sack; honey in  comb .sold -at 25ca box.
