was, finally, under the stimulation of cheap
freights, considerable movement eastward,
though the quantity of outgoing corn was
somewhat less than in the preceding year.
OATS.
Our market was well supplied with oats
throughout the year 1S77-7S, the receipts
having been !, ,467, ,010 bushels, in compar-
ison with 1,096,916 in the preceding year.
Ohio supplied us with the best oats in quail
| ity, which, mainly, were very good. The
districts Immediately adjacent to this city
produced an excellent crop, the grain
weighing from 33 to 38 pounds to the meas
ured bushel, some going as high as 40
pounds The oats received from Illinois
and Iowa, however, were not so good.
There was, throughout the year, a fair de-
mand for local consumption at the prices,
which were unusully low. The period,
however was entirely free from speculative
tendencies, and the market was compara-
lively tame the year through.
RYE.
The rye of 1877 was of good quality and
in sufficient supply to meet all demands
The consumption was somewhat interfered
with by the temporary discontinuance of
many of the Bourbon distillers in Kentucky
on account of proposed changes in the Rev
enue Laws There was the usual inquiry
for -four purposes, but there was scarcely
a tine during the year that shipments
could be made East without loss. The
market generally was dull and unsatis-
factory. There were occasional spurts in
which the condition seemed to be inn
proved, but these we're brief rallies in a
yer. spiritless year generally. The receipts
were 374,637 bushels, and the shipments

WHEAT.
The business in wheat shows very
heavy increase, the receipts having been
about double those of any previous year,
save 1S61-63 and Sc per cent. in excess of
hat year. The receipts aggregated, for
1878, 3,405,113 bushels, in comparison
with ,436, 951 in 1857, and the shipments
2,S67,09 compared wi h ,754. The
shipments it will thus be seen, were about
three times greater than the preceding
year. and more than double those of 1851
g. which was the largest in the history Of
the trade here prior to the past year. The
crop of winter wheat in 1873 was magnifi-
cent one in all respects, scarcely having had
parallel in the history of the country. 1t
began to arrive early, the receipts having
been materially increased by the Cincin-
natl Southern Railway. which has brought
us wheat from districts not hitherto accessi-
BILE to Cincinnati. In the last ten weeks of
the commercial year the receipts at this
city were 2, 2,123, ,916 bushels, larger guam
tity than the total receipts of any previous
whole year except 1S61-62.

BARLEY.
The movement of barley at Cincinnati
for 1918 indicates the largest business
the city has ever enjoyed, the receipts hav-
ing been ], ,597 ,481 bushels. The receipts of
the preceding year aggregated 1888, 1863
bushels. There was large acreage of fall
barley in 1877 and the yield was good,
though the quality was inferior. Brewers
bought sparingly of this early, though they
were more liberal buyers later in the sea-
son. The main supply was spring barley
from the Northwest and from Canada, par
ticularly from the former, which, it is esi-
mated, furnished us 100000 bushels, the
mailing qualities of which were good The
market was abundantly supplied through

and brewers mailed very freely larger
quantity than usual being carried over by
brewers into the new year. Prices through
