MIRNEAPOLIS-Spot wheat was in good de-
mand to-day and prices were higher from the
! first though with some weakness not long after
| the sales began to drag, but later under re-
newed buying the wheat was taken quite well
| at prices held before. The offerings. though
fair, were not too large to supply the local ele
/ vator and milling demand with some taken fcl
| outside millers. The buyers to send to store
! in other places were not SO active, as the Local
demand crowded them out. Closing quota
