western Miller says: While large sales OF
&C., a Nl=s ma ra- &
rot very satisfactory. Minneapolis mills
booked orders for $4,000 barrels, but the
bulk of it was sold in domestic markets.
Buyers were hardly prepared 70 pay the
equivalent OF the advance in wheat for
-four The foreign business done was es-
pecially disappointing. In a general way
prices are about 90 cents per barrel higher
than a week aEO.
