SEATTLE, Dec. 20.
But few changes are noted in the mar
ke.s since last week. although, general
~ speaking. prices are firm with an up
ward tendency.
wHEAT-Market strong. Chicken
feed in good demand.
FLOUR-Unchaneed; market strong
with O tendency for another raise with
In the nsxt two weeks. Extra dour per
barrel We quote ct $50 TO &5.75; No. !
family; $4.7s to $s.7s; supsrdne, N2S
OATS-MaIkst firm, but no change
reported, the crop having been mostly
bought up. We met gentleman, e.
terday, who had sold his entire crop
and was here negotiating for seed oats.
1t is safe TO say there are hardly enough
unsold on the Sound for seed. The sur
plus crop this year was about 6O,Ul
sacks short Of last years yield. Last
year Puget Sound shipped 154, 600 sacks
TO San Francisco. This year the ship
ment will not exceed 1900 sacks This
decrease was caused by floods and
shortness Of crops in some sections, ow-
ing to the hot. dry weather Just before
harvest. At this time last year there
were 60,00O sacks of oats in Ctsalady
warehouse for shipment; today there are
not TO exceed 1900 sacks. 1t behooves
farmers TO save enough oats for seed.
for al soon as the supply 10 exhausted,
the price is bound 70 60 up, even higher
than at present.
POTATOES-Shipping demand not
improved. owing to ruling low prices in
San Francisco, where choice grades are
quoted at 80 cents TO 81 per hundred
pounds. Dealers here are only buying
for local demand, and paying from g
to 20 cents per hundred pounds.
HAY-It will be noticed that hay bas
declined q little. Kellogg Il Snyder
purchased during the past week con-
siderable hay, delivered on the wharf
here, at from $17 TO $l8 per ton. We
cannot understand what has caused the
decline. unless It is that Jesse Curtis
transactions in the hay market have
had dsmoralizing effect thereon.
BRAN. firm. No change.
HOPS-It ia about time We ceasei
quoting hops, az there are but very few
in this country for sale. Since brewer,
stopped using hops in the manufacture
of beer the market in San Francisc,
has declined. and they are now quoted
at Is to 80 cents per pound at the Ba!
City. Our growers generally speaking
got their crop of when the tide was thu
highest. and can watch the prices de
cline with smiles ON their faces. i
don't hurt a bit.
BACON-Country cured bacon ant
hams have commenced coming int
market. The quotations given as b,
produce dealers are IA to Is cents pc
pound.
BUrTER-Firm, and choice ia in de
mand at 30 to 3S15 cents per pound.
EGGS still quoted at 80 cents Pc
dozen. No likelihood of q decline unit
after New Years..
CHICKENS-We note an advance il
the price of chickens. Dealers are nov
paying from $3.50 to s. per dozen fol
fat chickens.
APPLES-Cooking, quoted at 60 to
Is cents per box; eating, 6 to so cent
per box. Market steady.
MEATS-No change reported either
in Wholesale or retail prices, but tn,
market is firm.
