The farmer Is tho fellow who. has been getting the high prices for bis product, and he will have- fo Are satisfied to sell them on a srv much lower basis. In my opinion.” Mall advices to receivers from Iowa and Illiuols grain dealers Indicate that the re cent decline lu prices and the resort to clearing house certificates has combined to moke -very small offerings of grain from the farmer. The latter Is In position to hold his grain, and thus far has preferred ’a so.
