During the past week there has been
little change in the markets, either domes-
tic or foreign. Money is scarce in this
locality, but the demands of trade in the
larger towns and cities seem to be supplied.
As yet there are no indications Of the
probable condition Of the foreign demands
for brcadstuffs for the next harvest year.
The supplies at the various foreign depots
are little below the usual amounts at this
season of the year, but should thecrops
prove good in the various countries of
Europe, this short supply will not naturally y
advance prices. Late advices from the
great wheat growing States east of the
Rocky Mountains indicate a falling off in
average yield equal to about forty per cent.
This in conjunction with the probable short
crop in California, helps to put a more
cheerful prostiye price upon Oregon wheat.
However, harvest is several months off
yet, and no definite conclusion can be
formed as to the coming market.
A Washington dispatch of the 10th says;
During the past week the condition of
winter wheat in $50 counties has been re-
ported to the department of agriculture.
About 300 counties of the valleys of Ohio
and Missouri are represented, which last
year produced 10000, 600 bushels, or go per
cent of the product Of seven State from
Ohio to Kansas. Tho average condition
of these States is SO per cent, indicating
only five-eighths Of a full crop if no i'm
provement occurs. In Kentucky rs per
cent, Ohio 81, Michigan 63, Indiana Sc,
Illinois 63, Missouri 50, Kansas 81, though
only 80 counties in the latter State are re-
presented. The condition is betterin Penn
sylvania, Maryland and Virginia, though
below an average. A few wheat counties
in New York make extremely unfavorable
returns. The proportion to be replanted
in other crops average IA per cent in the
West, Of 1920, 900 acres in breadth Of
100000 acres seeded. at,
The Philadelphia Press of May llth, says
in review Of the reports from all parts of
Pennsylvania, "owing TO the severe frost
and late spring, much of the existing wheat
crop has been Killed, and the season de-
layed eight or ten weeks. Careful in
quiries lead TO the belief that not over halt
a crop win be gathered, and over this
amount depends ON a continuance of dry
weather.
