By that we mean tte demand ratter than the prices ttat have been preveili"g for ten dayr. Thie ir not rmusual; a feve patient in convalercence generally har a bad day or eo, jurt to give the doctor a little more money, and it would have been remarkable if the Southern Cali' fornia market har dimbed eteadilY without a rhort period of indecbiou.
