WHEAT-While the spot market shows no
rather strong tone TO prices. The situation at
other centers is represented as being of more
buoyant character, and this circumstance
naturally has a certain influence on local
operations. Besides, il is the season when
there is heavy purchasing for export pur-
poses. So that taken altogether the outlook
may be considered as quite favorable for the
selling interest. From 81 571I to 1 90 = ctl

ping grades.
BARLEY-Buying iG somewhat slow at the
present time. while values can hardly be said
TO be stiff There is firm holding for choice

way OF transactions are insignificant From

market for feed qualities, with the demand

seem inclined to accept less. Old brewing is
offered at a range of 81 so to l 3 as to
quality. New brewing can be bought at
81 1715 2 ctl.
OATS-Interest in this article seems to be
lacking, though dealers are hopeful that
sampIing Will soon become more general and
sales enlarge as a consequence. Buyers are
probably holding back in expectation of
heavier supplies In the near future, thinking
TO purchase them to better advantage. Quot
