which came from all seetions Of the winter
wheat bell, II was claimed that the green
bug had survived the cold weather in bet

stlll active. Another source OF strength
was the statement made by local expert
In which he estimated the total winter
wheat crop as about 100,OO0O0 bushels less
than that OF last year. The best part Of
the selling came from longs, who had
prohts in sight. The market closed strong
and at the highest point Deliveries on
May contracts were nearly 100000 bushels,
which was more than had been generally
expected. The grain, however. was taken
largely by influential houses, which fact
operated to prevent the enormous deliv-
cries from eNerting a weakening eftect
on the market July opened I4Q9sc higher

Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago reported
receipts OF 5& cars, against 595 cars last
week and 23 cars year ago.
Trading In corn was active and the mar
ket was strong all day. The advance In
wheat was the chief bullish influence, al
though small receipts gave additional inn
petus to the buying movement The mar

SHBEP-The sheep market was much the
same as II was yesterday. Trains were
late in getting In and left II uncertain as
TO the general condition Of the trade. Up
until late hour only "a small proportion
OF the expected days arrivals had reached
the yards and this, OF course, interfered
with buyers filling orders, and as a result
the market was uncertain and slow, The
trend of prices is certainly toward a lower
level, and while sales here and there
scratched out In the neighborhood Of
steady prices, offerings that did not just
exactly suit buyers fancy sold lower. Bid =
and sales in some cases were as much as
l0al5c on from the high time and at a
late hour considerable proportion Of the
receipts had either not arrived or were
stu in sellers hands
Prices at this market for some time
have been as high as anywhere in the
country, and while there is no general
break In prices buyers took advantage Of
the situation to trim values wherever OPP
pOrtunity offered.

Totals

CATTLE-There was only a moderate run
of cattle today and the three days supply
falls slightly short of the total for the
first half of last week. although supplies
are still considerably heavier than at this
time last year. The quality has not been
50 good so far this week as 1t was during
the last two weeks.
The market opened rather slow, but for
the most part prices bid and paid were
about steady with yesterday. There was a
good general demand and some of the
more desirable, light and handy-weight
steers sold perhaps a shade better than
yesterday On the other hand, there was
no Improvement in the demand for the
heavier grades and prices were just about
steady at the present decline,
The market for COWS and heifers was sub
stantially unchanged. There were in the
neighborhood OF forty straight loads on
sale and with both local and outside buyers
taking hold freely the offerings were soon
picked up at full recent quotations. Veal
calves continue in liberal supply and rather
weak, while there has been an active de-
mand and a strong market right along for
bulls, stays, etc.
Business I'm stockers and feeders was
rather quiet, a fresh supplies were limited
and there did not seem TO be any partic-
ular urgent demand for the stun from any
source. Desirable fieshy steers found
ready sale at firm figures. but the trade
was dull, dragging and weak on the COM
