a lowering of percentage in the
high grades when compared with
a week earlier. Middling, how

per cent fell into Low Middling.
The percentage of grassy sam
ples continued to rise. About
thirty-two per cent of all the
samples classed during the week

reached as the percentage increase
over the prededing week is rath
