PRODUCE AND PROVISIONS.
Only moderate business in produceis to be
reported for the week. But ON special cir
cumstances, including a considerable trade
from the northwest and Manitoba, and also
from Lake Superior, business would have been
decidedly dull.
FLOUR In some instances a very favorable
report has boen received from former ship
ments Of fancy yfour-favorable to the extent
that the flour, supposed to be OF first rate quail
ity, was not as bad as was feared. On the
whole, our shipments Of flour to eastern par
ties who wanted quality that they could daily
brag on, have not turned out so poorly, after
all, considering all the poor quality OF wheat
from which the manufacture was made. Ship
pers to the east, who have regular customers
for flour of various grades, feel considerably
encouraged by the result of recent trials, and
anticipate largely increased order OF business
as soon as trade begins to revive
Quotations OF "patent process hour continue
measurably firm at 80 to $50 per barrel.
Straight xxx. made without separation OF
middlngs is dull at S4,75 to 800. Interior
brands Of xxx flour are to be quoted at

and very firm at the price.

late experience, which resulted in heavy loss,
notwithstanding very low rates OF freight to

cumulated here, and in various country rail
road warehouses contiguous to this point. which
early in the season promised to pay very
generous profit to the buyers who had taken
the risk Of owning and transferring the grain
from the ST. Paul to the New York market. But
THE value Of grain has constantly declined land

been recognized as its value in New York, and

days, and it gives me pleasure to state to You
and the farming public, that it excels any other
machine have seen work in eleyating and de-
livering the grain to the binders. don't think
in draft there is ten pounds difference between
it and the Marsh Harvester. but it has quicker
motion and not so liable to clog in heavy grain,
and it saves grain better than the Marsh Har-
yester, for reason Of a canvass elevator, aud q
close box to save the grain. #
