In summing up the dealings in the Grain
and Flour line for the week We can report
very little change in prices. Flour during
the week has lost say from % to 80 cents
and Wheat and Corn about 1 cent. The first
new Wheat of the season was sold this morn
ing at Toe, which is 20c above the first sales
of last season. 1t was from the river, of good
| quality, very dry and in good milling condi-
ton. The dealings in Corn have been very
light, the milleis holding off on account Of
the small demand for Meal and Feed. We
renew quotations for May Oats and Rye,
Hay being particularly firm for first-class old
stock. Butter, Eggs, etc. are in demand at
current prices.
