In the standards, females were bringing mostly from :10 to :20 and quite a few lots went under the :10 mark. In the males there was a considerable price spread re- flecting the variety of the offering. The bulk of the sales were bring- ing anywhere from 318.50 to 823. Attendance was fairly good as the trade continued to demonstrate interest in mink of all kinds. The two governing factors continued to be the rapidly dwindling crop and the steady turn over of mink stocks at the dealer level. The ma- jority of the observers look for no softening from here on to the end of the season. -

Peas for canning. Mustard for oil from the seed and sugar beets grown for seed production are the larger cash crops grown on the Delta. The land is cultivated and limed for peas. The canning fac- torles supply the seed, arrange for the date of seeding and 60 days later harvest and take the crop to their vinery. The land is then cultivated and sown to sugar beets. The rows are spaced so that trac- tor and machinery can be used to cultivate, fertilize and dust with insecticides the sticklings and harvest the seed. The sugar-beet factories supply the seed and har- vest the crop, paying Hc per pound
