HEAL The market is apparently
shaping i'll favor of the buying interest.
Choice export parcels were offered at $l.3Si
without finding custom. Receipts are be-
coming more free, and a fair movement is
in progress, considering the fact that for
eign markets are anything but encourage
ing at the moment. From 81 :i5CG$ .S7a II
ctl will represent the full range at which
the better grades of shipping change
hands. Call business is not as general as
many operators would desire, though
transactions will likely enlarge in the
near future. Sales last week were:
Buyer season-2U tons, 81. ACT.
Buyer season, city-lOU tons, $l.46i; 100,
$l.464.
Seller lSS4-200 tons, $l.35i y Gtl.
Closing prices were:
Buyer season-2OO tons, 81 46; 30, Sl.35h
| h ctl.
Seller 1SSi-lO0 tons, S135
Seller lSSl, city-2OO tons, $l.35l u ctl.
BARLEY-NO buOyant tone prevail.
New crop is coming TO hand in fairly lib
eral amounts, and is being more or less
pressed for sale. The demand is as good
as can be expected, but no eagerness is
displayed by buyers. Samping was some
what general, though the market was
slow of movement. The range for the
best feed grades is 81 Soc Il ctl, but pur-
chasers incline to the belief that values
| will tend yet lower and bidding Is limited
to soc b ctl. Holders, however, show
some tirmness, and will not make conces-
sions until forced to do so by possible cir
cumstances that just at the moment seem
more likely to happen than otherwise.
Brewing is less brisk, and prices show
signs of weakness. For more than a week
strictly fine parcels could be placed at
Sl.lU, but $l.U7i is now full figure for
even fancy parcel, while the market for
this description can be quoted down as
low as 90c " ctl, according to color and
weight. There is nothing of consequence
TRANSPORTING in Chevalier, and therefore no
guiding quotations can be given. Some
thing fancy in this line would probably
bring $l.4O and perhaps a trifle more,
while lots that are anyway off would likely
go begging at $l.l5a Sl.25 Il ctl. Sales
were:
Buyer season-20O tons, 93ic; 800, 93ic;
500, 93c d ctl.

OATS-Ths market is steady. Many

and bring quotations readily. Receipts
must necessarily enlarge in the future.
