GRAIN-The market has been quiet
and unchanged during the past week
and there are few new features to
note. CoRN-This quality of grain
has received its usual attention. There
has been fair demand from the local
consumptive and export trade, and
the shipments, las we'll as sales for con-
sumption were large. Only two car
goes were reported as arrivals during
the week. These were placed on mar
ket and were sold at 81 OF! from YES
sci. The market for cargoes, however,
is quoted quiet and easier at the close
at 81 u bushel. Several large lots are
expected daily and the stock is now
large. Store quotations have been
ed. The receipts for the week 1928
bushels against 19, 96l bushelf for last
week, show a decrease of 80 bushs,

| PEANUTS-The peanut market con-
tlnues to rule strong with a good de-
mand for all offered at the quotations.
1t now seems pretty definitely settled
that the crop of this year will not be
as large as last by several thousand
bushels and for this reason growers
| have been withholding their stock to
| certain extent, from market, antici-
patlng a further advance of prices.
The receipts were readily taken by buy
ers at the following prices

PROVISIONS-The market contin-
ues firm ..under favorable advices
from the North and West and quota
tons have been steady during the
week. The trade in bulk and
boxed meats continues good and !
there is large e4pofS movement to :,
the county surrounding our market
For North Carolina and Virginia bacon 6
there is only moderate enquiry and
the stock though light is sufficiently ,
large to meet the wants Of buyers.

natural reaction from the advance
which tended to restrict consumptive
orders, and partly by the general an
ticipation that the offerings would be !
large the last week of the month, when
the deliveries on contracts came to be {
made, and consequently speculative
buyers have been holding off This ,
has resulted in decline of to ! per
lib on bulk meats and bacon, but mess
pork and lard have been held very
firmly, Tor stocks of these articles are !
in few hands and are so
light as to be easily controlled, and
the demand for them has !
been small, scarcely more than what is
for current consumption 7
holders seem to have full confidence in
values being sustained, with strong ,
hopes of further advance. The for
eign exports FROM the seaboard ports
vera considerably less than for the !
week last year, apd this
has also had some inauenee in the
downward turn, but there is q strong !
undertone to the market, and at even
small concessions from current prices !
there are buyers for round lots of
meats, for the confidence Of the trade | ,
in the final outcome has not bee n
shaken, bat only disposition exists !
to take advantage of the temporary :
decline to buy in at as lev price as
possible.
