a fair early demand for good wheat a few
local millers coming i'll and taking small SUD-
plies at about July prices. They were rather r
eXacting in their views, and good deal OF
the offerings did not suit them. After their
wants had been supplied the market was
very dull, perhaps even more so than yester-
day. The elevator companies were Wiling
to take the contract grade at 34c under July,
but sellers held back, hoping to get better
prices. The demand did not improve. how
ever, and finding the best they could do was
to accept the elevator companies BIDS.
