The movement of grain ut this point has
been very light, indeed. The railroads report
receipts OF only 7,439 bushels OF wheat, and
shipments of only 5,l6S. No oats, corn or
barley were received or shipped during the
week. There are only 5000 or 5000 bushels
OF oats, and 6, 200 bushels of barley in the
elevators, and no corn at all. The week has
been the lghtest we have had since the ele-
vators were were erected. The street receipts
Of wheat were also exceedingly light, and the
millers have been compelled to go to the ele-
vators for supplies. Flour remains about
even as far rs the local demand is concerned,
but prices have not been advanced. Corn,
owing to the scarcity, has been gradually adj
vancing all the week. There has been good
demand for oats, and they are frmer and
higher on account of the extreme lightness
of receipts The receipts of barley were
also light, but there was sufficient in store to
hold quotations down. Feed and milstuns
have been generally firm and higher, with the
demand rather in excess OF supply. Hay has
been gradually advancing and closed strong
and Arm yesterday. Flax seed squiet. But
ter is dull aud the feeling weak, with the ten
dency of prices downward. The receipts arc
fair and receivers have been unable to keep
closed out and considerable accumulation OF
stock is noticed For really fine, fresh makes
there is a Limited call on local account, but
there is scarcely any inquiry for lines. Pine
perfect makes of creamery are salable
in limited quantities at 24D28c per b, with
but very little of such makes received;
most of the stock sells within the range Of
20622c for good TO choice and fair makes are
offered at ISOLDE. Last summer made cream
cry is Quotable at TIb0c. Choice fresh dairies
meet with a good local demand and are sal
able at 181t20c, with good makes In limos as
they arrive selling at about lac. Streaked
fresh dairies and packed, NICE fresh butter
quotable at about 9l110c, and packing stock
at 557c for poor to good. Roll butter Is in
some request and fresh salable at 11W121%c.
The cheese market is rather quiet. Light
orders are received for choice grades. The
supply is equal TO the demand and prices are
steady The cheese mainly called for are full
creams mild and of good flavor. These are
the qualities necessary, whether old or new.
There arc plenty of common old cheese on
hand, and some imperfect new cheese. All
of these are dull and slow sale. Eggs are in
better supply and quotations are q shade
lower. Hay is in good demand and prices are
higher. Poultry is practically out Of the
market, and cOops of nice large birds are
coming in.
