MINNEAPoLIs, MINI, July l7.-OAlcial
figures show the flour productions of last
week to have been lighter, though the
difference was not great. The total out
put was $4,000 barrels, averaging, l4,Sl6
barrels daily for the six working days,
against 81, $50 barrels the preceding week.
Two of the mills, idle last week, have been
started up and there were nineteen in
operation on Tuesday out OF the whole
number of twenty-five in the city, making
an increase in the production this week
quite probable. Millers report an i'm
proved demand for flour, and while no
better prices are obtained, it gives them
courage to hope that the time is not far
distant when the market will show u gen
eral improvement.
