MINNEAPOLIS.

Minneapolis Wheat was in uncertain
mood through the first hour, ranging from
95c to 953s Q9515c, and back to 94kc The
trade Will not do much until the situation
in the Northwest is clearer. A few DAYS
more ought to indicate what the start
will be in the three states. The trade
is just half way through April with the
season backward. Important wheat pro-
ducing counties In which the average
date for beginning active seeding is April
20. are covered with snow, the recent
fall showing one to four inches over
wide extent of territory. Under this snow
lies old snow and ice in many districts
That seeding is certain to be very late
is already clear, but just how serious
this is going to be is the question. South
Dakota is in comparatively good shape.
and yesterday seeding was going on at
some points. North Dakota and Mime
sofa counties in the valley are the most
backward. If the weather turns favor
able soon and remains favorable the
ground may be cleared in such time that
the delay will not be serious after all
But thaw ought to come very soon if
this is to be. Receipts, 113 cars.
When the sun came out selling began
quickly and May wheat fell to 937sc, clos
ing at 941sc. July closed at 94Ac, and
