SOME SAMPLE SALES.
CASH WHEAT MARKET.

No. Northern on spot: There is nothing
new to report in the cash wheat situation.
Ahere is the usual good demand for all
offerings of this grade Of wheat on spot
on the established basis Of 1ac over July
price. This is the price paid by the local
milling concerns ,Once in while outsiders
will take a car so at "a ole over July
but the outside buyers at present are very
scarce, and the local buyers are about the
only ones that are interested on the buy
ing side.
No. Northern to arrive: The offerings
of this grade of wheat to arrive are small.
the line companies will not sell at the diff
ference paid by the millerS between the
cash stuff and July and the country eleva-
tors are not in a position to offer much
wheat and on any break they withdraw
their offerings. If wheat should have
good advance of a cent or two, offerings
would be more plentiful as the country is
beginning to believe in lower prices and
they would take advantage of the rally to
sell out. The established price is on the
basis Of 1ac over July although some sales
are made in a private way at NC over
July.
No. Northern: This wheat is delivered
on sales of No. l northern to arrive at the
regular price Of 1s@Ac under No. nor
thern in settlement. Offerings Of this grade
are small and demand good.
No. Northern and rejected wheat:
There is the usual demand for these low
grades Of wheat with the best cars selling
at &c Under No northern.
