TRADE. 81
To-day bad the appearance of rain, ard
a few good showers would materially help
The hIl crops, but those in the bottom
lands are not suffering. The last rain we
had was, we believe, general-at least, it
extended throughout a good portion OF
This State and North Mississippi, and did
a large amount of good TO both cotton
and corn. Several small lots Of new
wheat have arrived in oar city within the
last two weeks, but it does not meet with
ready sale. But one of our flour mills is
in operation this year, and there is no
competition among buyers. Choice ranges
from 81 20 to 81 30 per bushel. The
efforts made by millers during the
past three or four years TO build UP a
wheat market here proved a signal fail
ure, as there was not enough raised in
this section to keep the mills at work over
n month in the year on an average, and
the heavy freights prohibited shipments
from other sections. In consequences, the
mills had to close. Planters Will there
fore have TO get their grain ground at local
mills, and where they have an excess over
their own wants, will sell the -four. One
or two of our merchants have already re-
ceived new -four from above, and it meets
with ready sale.
