The visitor evident- - ly prefers the best in quality and in- a- 'sists on having it supplied fresh. This d demand is making itself felt in con- nection with almost all farm products e but this year it is particularly notice- able, according to the Markets Intel- ligence Division of the Dominion d Live Stock Branch, in connection with the heavy demand for fresh t, lamb and mutton. Despite the fact that there has been a fairly heavy marketing of Iambs, and that these have had to compete with consider- able quantities of imported frozen lamb, the tourist demand has taken care ofpractically all the fresh pro- duct as fast as it has come on to the market. t .h w a a 0 s a Increased Prize Grant Geo, H.
