PRICE OF WHEAT

Editor Wright of the De Smet lnde-
pendent is a clase student of the grain
market and his observation on the
probable fuctuation of grain prices are
always interesting. He says in his
last issue:
Just how much advance is likely
to take place in the price of wheat is
hard to say. 1t must be remembered
that the price is at this time about 30
cents over the corresponding period a
year ago. But the situation is n
that warrants still further advance in
our opinion. The exports of wheat
and flour for November amounted to
24.250,O 900 bushels. The total exports
for July / to December l this year,
makes a total of 1885 900 bushels
against 81,497 900 bushels for the
same period la st year. Or an excess
for July to December of 81 1000, 900 in
round figures. Or, making another
comparison, the exports last year were
1853 900 showing that we only lack
1000, 900 so far this year of equaling
the total export from the 1894 crop
Under ordinary circumstances only
about half the export business is done
at this time, and what with the usual
needs of the latter part of the year, to-
gether with the great waste by war
and the fact that production was less
and will be still smaller, should make
a strong demand for every available
bushel Of our wheat. Further, we be-
Iieve the northwest spring wheat crop
has been over estimated, and that a
greater precent of the available sup
ply has been shipped than is usual at
this time of the year. A still further
full feature is the fact that the grain
trade is very skeptical as to the re-
ported big surplus claimed by the
Argentine country. Statistics will
hardly bear out the claim made for
that country to a few days ago. The
foreign demand for oats is almost GER
tain to send the price upward a few
cents before the next crop is available.
There is no reason to expect a decline
