Western Kansas had a good rain. over a great part of the winter belt and the spring wheat states conditions are more favorable. Many southwest ern messages, however. claim that un- less rain comes soon, the crops of that section will go back. Wheat stocks were cut heavily at all lead ing center points, the most discourag- ing feature to the pit trade was the fact that Patten, on his return, did not become an aggressive buyer. In- stead, brokers for that interest ap- peared to be persistent sellers all day. The trade looks somewhat oversold on the break. Much long wheat came on the market today. These facts make many local leaders friendly to the buying side at the lower prices.

CANTALOUPE CROP
 WILL REACH 200 CARS
Agent of Refrigeration Company Ex-

$. NJ. Fulton, chief travelling agent of the Santa Fe Refrigeration De- spatch company is in the city for the purpose of estimating the number of cars that will be need for this years crop of cantaloupes. With w. S.. Goldsworthy, general agent, he will go to Glendale today to look over the cantaloupe country. From a rough estimate he said he thought about 200 cars would be shipped this year as against 61 last. This estimate is based on the number of acres now planted in cantaloupes.
 There were 130 acres planted in cantaloupes last year, so that a little over two acres was required for a car load. There are about 450 acres in cantaloupes this year and on this acreage the estimate of 200 cars is based.
 However" said MT. Fulton yester- day, "I will know more about the number of cars to be shipped after I have looked over the ground than I do now"
