inclined 10 pay over 81 o21a p cu. for No.
White Wheat, ana holders are fairly meeting
the market at this figure For choice article,
the usual advance OF 114c 2 ctl. would likely
be obtainable. Milling grades are not quotable
at over 81 10 as an extreme, and from this
figure down TO probably 81 o71a = ctl. Values
for feed descriptions of Barley have shrunk to
so low point that most dealers believe that
bottom prices have been reached. But re-
reduced rates have not developed any IN
crease in business, and the market moves
along in very slow fashion. There is steady
inquiry for choice lots of brewing, but sellers
do not obtain as full prices as were current a
month or so ago. Chevalier also finds custom,
though not OF pressing character. There is no
improvement in price of Oats and no par
ticuar change for the better in business. At
the same time the volume of receipts is not of
large proportions, and holders look upon the
situation as little more cheerful. Prices,
however, are easy.
Referring to Hops, the Commercial NetCs
SAYS: Locally the situation has not been so
favorable TO holders on account of the more
favorable tenor OF adVices regarding the Coast
prospect. Washington is lighting vermin
with variable success, and oregon is engaged
IN the same work on a smaller scale, but the
outlook has improved in each instance while
California will have good yield of fine quality.
In the east conditions have not been uniformly
favorable, and the result will be proportion
dle, WHilS IN England there mas Deen some
damage from spiders, and in Germany con-
ditions have been adverse, and very poor
return is anticipated In view Of these facts
1t is yet too early to conclude that the year
will not be a good one for growers"
The vegetable market opened quiet, with
heavy supplies OF all varieties; Corn was
lower and Cucumbers and Green Peppers are
accommodating. The Potato market Is steady.
Onions are shade firmer.
In fresh fruits business is depressed by the
abundance OF supplies. Peaches are dragging
at bedrock Melons lower TODAY The
market is heavily supplied with Grapes of all
kinds
The poultry market is not quite so weak as
it was, bat business is dull and the demand
very light for young stock. Turkeys are
Butter is still firm, with higher prices for
fancy stock. Ranch eggs are also higher.
Cheese Is unchanged.
