WHEAT is FIRMER, BOTH ON
AND OFF CALL.
Farley Offering Freely, But Buyers
Scarce-Corn and Oats
Unchanged.
San Francisco, Aug. 22d.

San Francisco, Aug. I'D.
Wheat is firmer, both on ana on can.
BARLEY is offering freely, but buyers are
scarce, and the market decldedly easy
Oats are steady and Corn is weak, with
prices unchanged Large receipts of hay
have weakened the market, put prices
have not chnged for it or Bran
The Vegetable market still faVors the
buyer. Ample stock of Potatoes and prices
easy. Onions plentiful, and Corn Is weak.
Receipts of fruit are lighter than last
week, but enough is arriving to heavily
stock the market and a cleanup is out OF
the questions. Berries do not bring what
they should, and Grapes are weak, as we'll
as Melons of all kinds.
Butter is fairly steady. Receipts are
lighter, but more than is wanted for trade
requirements Cheese is steady at un-
changed prices. Eggs are in great plenty
and prices shaded, with not much pros
pect Of Improvement Poultry receipts are
light with not much demand.
