9O6 900 bushels below this date last
year. 1t is the lightest stock in
more than four years, and is far be-
low the average.
Consumption has been heavy ever
since harvest. Millers have ground
more wheat in the past five months
than ever before, and while there
are claims that stocks Of flour are
excessive at some distributing
points, there are others that are not
burdensome The disposition is to
carry larger stocks of -four than in
years past, as the advance of last
year caught many large consumers
with light supplies, and they are
like the millers specializing on their
future requirements and carrying
good supplies. Millers are also
specializing on their wheat supplies,
and hold liberal stocks.
Last week James A. Patten sold
100000 bushels No. 2 red wheat ia
~ to 10 cents over May, or at about
$1.26 to $1.28. This is the wheat
he took in the last of July. Bal
lard, the Louisville miller, took 300,-
900 bushels. B. A. Eckhart and the
Star and Crescent Milling Company
here bought $4,000 bushels, the
former taking 100000 bushels; and
there were $4,000 bushels sold to a
number of small millers. These mil
lers were confident of being able to
mill the wheat, while Patten was
uneasy and feared that any increase
in receipts might cause big loss
in the premiums.
Although Argentina is probably
short 10000 900 bushels in it's sur
plus for export for the next twelve
months, it is believed that the
shortage will be more than made up
by India, Australia, and Russia, so
that there is just now no uneasi-
ness on the part of consumers as to
future supplies. But if so, then
where has the wheat gone?

fasteners WONDER
WHERE THE wheat IS

Chicago, Jan. 1S.-Where has the
wheat gone to? This is the query
made by the trade. We raised the
second largest crop on record last
year, 737,OO0,000 bushels, yet the
regular visible supply is 24,00O,000
bushels less than last year in the
United States alone. In the United
States and Canada the supply is 3d.
4S1 900 bushels, or 1884, 900 bushels
less than on December I, and 49,

In LaBelle.

There are people in this burg
(and pretty nice people, too) who
will enter a grocery store, run their
fingers into a barrel and lop up a
couple of ounces of sugar, nibble at
the back of herring, eat a handful
of nuts, cut off a slice of cheese,
must take a few crackers; and per-
haps before they have made up
their mind to buy a bar of soap,
they have eaten up the profits on
So worth of groceries, and to wind
it all up they have the soap charg-
ed, and the poor merchant perhaps
realizes a profit of one cent. They
leave the store munching a couple
of apples. This is no dream but a
reality, except sometimes they
don't buy any soap. But such is
life. -LaBelle Star.
