PACIFIC COAST WHEAT AND

Portland Commercial Review-The

should be an easy matter for both the
exporters II millers to buy wheat

Idaho are surprisingly fine. The Win
ter wheat crop has been ripened by
the extremely fine weather. and the
indications are that we shall harvest
a crop of winter wheat of nearly As

There seems to he some improve
ment in the flour business, although
mills are looking for better things in

the wheat market, and millers believe
that when prices get down to the right
level trade will take on new life. Most
OF the flour business now taking nlace
is for local and coastwise trade and
the demand for patents and straights

couragement in the way of bad or de-
