MARKET

29th.-During the week ending today
some bearish sentiment has developed,
and the prices of September wheat
has declined about ~ cents per
bushel. The weather has been only
fairly good, but receipts of winter
wheat are large and are increasing.
Primary receipts Tor last week were
g., 622, 900 bushels, and for yesterday
and today r 1900, 900 bushels.
Exports for last week were s, 1882, 900
bushels. The domestic visible supply
increased 1,176, 900 bushels, about
one-third of the increase expected,
and Bradstreet's Worlds Available
decreased 77O,OO bushels. Large
yields of winter wheat are reported
from various places, but the grading
is low and is not improving. Spring
wheat now promises to yield a large
crop of good quality. Harvest has
begun in several European countries,
and will begin in England by the list
lof August. The crop in India is
short and there will be no wheat for
export from either India or Austria.
Corn and oats both promise to be
large crops. The July deliveries of
these cereals have fluctuated violent
ly, as is always the case when the
grain is cornered. The ending Of the
various corners with the close If the
month will be a relief to the trade.
There have been some sales for ex-
port, but the demand is disappointing,
and the ear approach of harvest in
Europe and England makes foreigners
Indifferent. There is no doubt that a
large short interest has been created
during the last few days and the
market is in a position to advance
quickly on bad weather or revival of

MAP OF RAMSEY COUNTY.

The Inter Ocean is about to under :
take the job of getting up a wall map
of Ramsey county, which will be the
most complete work of the kind ever
published. It will show all tha
towns, postofices, railroads, public
highways, telegraph and telephone
lines, lakes, streams and coulees,
school houses, churches, farm resi-
dences and the name and number of
acres belonging to every land owner$
in the county. The map will show
all these things and more, too. The
success of the undertaking will de-
pend largely upon the number of ad-
vance orders which may be obtained.
A thorough canvass of the county willy
be made at an early day in the inter
est of this great work, and we feel
confident it will receive the encourage
ment it merits.
