Flour-Market record: A very quiet mar
Eet has noted and promises to continue for a
few weeks yet. Foreign buyers are feeling
the millers with few inquiries, but are
still supplying their demands OtherWhere.
They are figuring for American flour on the
basis of 3S0.iOs for patents and bakers,
9010s under patents. While other supplies
can be secured at figures relatively lower
than American. they VIII be used with the
probable expectation that American will
drop into competition. On the other hand,
if Americans stand through the intermediate
strain, foreign flours will most likely rise to
level with ours before the expiration Of
the crop year.
