CASH WHEAT DEMAND.

In q recent editorial on the cash
wheat demand The Minneapolis Trlb-
une took the following view:
The visible wheat supply in the do
nestle market appears to be close to
the maximum accumulation although
further increases are to be expected
this month. Country marketing con-
tinues fairly large, and In the north
west the movement from the farms
Is stin free, but consumption has In
creased sufficiently to offset the weight
Of additional hedges.
There Is an active cash wheat de-
mand at all the western primary CEN
ters. Even the soft winter grades,
which have been drug on the mar
ket, have felt the quickening OF COM
mercial needs and liberal sales have
been made in Chicago and st. Louis
the chief terminals for this wheat
The spring and hard winter grades re-
fleet In their premiums relative to the
December future their strong supply
and demand position.
A hardening price tendency has fol-
lowed naturally, this expansion OF the
cash demand which has been based on
a broader -four trade. The apprecia-
ton is the result of normal supply and
demand conditions. Speculation is
too limited factor in the pit TO be eff
fectfve in price making so that the
market lacks any special imitation.
The underlying commercial condi-
tons alone are responsible for the inn
proved tone and the present situation
suggests continuation OF activity In
the cash market. Flour supplies are
not in heavy accumulation. Distrib-
utors have refrained from stocking up.
beyond their near requirements, in
surfing a steady call with the probable
ity of greater activity before lake nav
igation closes. MiIlers are well salts
fed with current bookings, believing
that conservative buying power is
greatly preferable to large deferred
contracts involving speculative risks
for their customers.
Domestic prices still hold above the
international level, but the absence of
an export demand does not weigh
against the market at present. The
surplus is hedged and the passing Of
cash wheat from elevator to milling
interests lightens the load that In now
being carried in the wheat pit await
ing the full seasons demands.
