Wheat-The local market continues
to exhibit erratic tendencies, influ-
enced by the expansion or depression
in spot demands for export. A better
business during the past week has i'm
parted a renewed element of strength,
and the price has enhanced, as COM
pared with a week ago., club and red
Fife going to 94c, with red Russian
92c. Bluestem, on the other hand,
which advanced twice as rapidly as
did export grades, is still receding,
and has touched $1.04, with only a
fair business doing with the mills. Re-
ceiDts have continued of a represen-
tative character, while the dispatch of
cargoes from tidewater has been freer
than in many seasons for the opening
weeks of the crop year. Despite the
active shipments wheat is accumulat-
ing in interior warehouses, however,
and, with anything like a comprehens-
i've selling movement it is probable
that there would be a congestion in
transportation facilities. Growers con.
tinue sanguine as to the future and are
inclined to hold for still higher rul-
ings, while buyers, on the other hand,
show little inclination to speculate,
and are purchasing largely against
contracts.
Flour-The situation has eased off
moderately so far as patents are con
cerned, with the recession in price of
bluestem wheat, and there was a de-
cline of zoe a barrel by local mills
during the week. Export, so far as
the orient is concerned, is rather re-
stricted. There is a good call for
west coast shipment, while Pacific
coast mills have been booking some
business right along for transatlantic
destinations. Prices are firmly held
at a range of $4.00@4.10 for club
straights and $4.15@4.30 for bluestem
cutoffs.
Feed-There has been no further
changes in the price of cereals. Oats
are steady, but the enlarged move
ment from the new crop keeps the
situation well in hand. Barley is also
Millfeed declined another
dollar per ton, however, during the
week.
