F4our-Market Record: The new year
opened with a strong feeling among local
millers regarding the future of flour. Re-
ports from Glasgow, and many other foreign
points, say the stocks with them are unusu-
ally small, and especially so of spring pat
ents, During the holiday week cable bids
barrel. Moderate stocks are left over in do
mestfe markets which will have to be supple
mented shortly. Quite number of fair Or
ders from the united kingdom have been ac-
cepted recently, and if the firm showing of
wheat proves permanent flour will soon work
into greater activity. The late increased
cost of cash wheat has not yet been met by
flour buyers, while millers are holding with
firmness. That has caused most of the re-
cent dizziness, but with more going abroad
buyers will naturally accept the situation
