Fears are entertained that the severe frosts of a few nights ago has played havoc with the early nloom. The early apples, cherries, and most of the small fruits are in a critical stage. Some time will elapse before it will be definitely known what damage has been done. Vegetation is far advanced for ,the season, we sincerely hope that it don't get a backset. The weather has been elegant for getting on with the spring work. Mangolds and carrots are about all sown, and farmers are busy working up their corn ground.

The market was overloaded. With roe .'i!rts amounting up in the neighbor- hood of 5,000 head of cattle, it was opparent to everyone that a break in prize:; from Iast week's high levels was s inevitable. Shippers, however, for a time held on, and the result was that for the first hour or two scarcely a transaction was made. Trade dragged until about noon -hour, when the cattle began to move toward the scales. But prices had broken anywhere from 25c to 35c, and still many cattle left over unsold. The top loads went around $3 to $5,25, a considerable falling off for the same class of cattle last week. All grades of butcher cattle were lower, but the dy weight useful butcher and stock- ers seemed to stand the hammering the best. Sheep and lambs were 25c to 80c lower. Hogs just about steady.
