rollers-Mr Burkholder had seen r Kemper's
Imperial Pulverzer and Roller at work and 1t
was doing excellent work. Mr. Kames had also
seen this roller and thought 1t was doing very
good work. but thought he would rather prefer

OF fertilizer sent at once. but he could not do so
before October or November. DIR Hanger pro-
posed that 10 cents per ton be paid the buying
committee for attending to the fertilizer pur-

fact that there were some N embers who SEEM

Staunton Markets.

h.
STAUNToN. VA, September "a. 1889.
AS matter of convenience, as we'll as that 1t
is in order, we continue to make comments
under the head of our local markets upon our
interests as the numerical situation generally
bears upon them ESPECIALLY as Il concerns our
| surplus of wheat and breadstuffs. Continuing
our diligence in making Investigations into
causes affecting the price of wheat, not only in
the larger centers of trade but also as our mar
ket Is consequently elevated or depressed by
causes not generally taken into the account
we find the field still open that line. In the
review last week we again adverted to the Sit
uation surrounding the interior milling inter-
est in the great Western winter wheat belt.
and the intelligence received since confirms
the conclusions then and previously arrived
at, and reesta blishes the fact of the preponder-
atipg influence these interests in interior com
merce exercise In the smaller fields OF produc
ton, though they are nearer the Atlantic sea-
board. During the two years past. the amount
OF stocks of wheat usually carried In the store
houses of the interior mills was depleted to a
low point-actually producing stoppages In
operations in many instances.
In quoting again from the Chicago crop-co.
respondent of the New York Journal of Com i.
merce, no further reference as to the reliabili-
ty of his statements need be made than we
have often made before. We extract as follows
from his communication to that journal OF the
18th inst.
1--WE are using up the present crop OF winter
wheat very fast. The crop of 1889 came upon
the market with reserves Of the last two or
three years of wheat well cleaned up. probably
much MOI go than for several years. and in
fact the farmers bins we're bare Many OF the
winter wheat mills were standing idle waiting
for wheat. We had a wet harvest, and at least
% per cent. of the new crop was unfit for MILL
ing. During the last few weeks better weather
prevailed at the winter wheat belt, the crop
dried out aud threshing progressed satisfactor-
lily.
Farmers found they could market all their
good merchantable wheat for milling purposes
Nillers have taken this wheat freely. 1t has
So far the milling business has been o hand to-
mouth trade, as neither stocks of wheat nor
flour have accumulated. At harvest farmers
had very little confidence in higher prices but
now the feeling is that good wheat will bring
good prices. The largest proportion OF the poor
wheat has been worked off and farmers are not
inclined to sell now except on advancing mar
kets."
The foreign situation remains as 1t was re-
ported last week.
Our local market is without change in prices
of wheat and staple products, nor is any de-
partment OF trade very brisk.
The quotations ara wholesale. not etah.]
