The Fourth of July let pleasure in
terfere with the receipts in all lines,
Monday and Tuesdays gatherings be-
ing much below normal. Quality con-
tinues mediocre. Six seventy-five was
the high spot for steers Of fair quail
ity. Cows and heifers in proportion.
Hog trade started this weeks ses-
sion at not far from steady compared
with last weeks close. Tops sold at
$3.50 and bulk at close to that figure.
Trade appears to be on a steady basis
at around prevailing prices.
Sheep receipts appear to be on an
unsteady footing. Not enough COM
ing forward to really test the market.
Lambs naturally, unless they show
quality, have a downward tendency.
Tacoma.
Wheat-The local wheat market has
continued to show recovery in tone,
following the relapse, and bluestem is
now up to S1.0601.0S, with club back
to the dollar mark. There is very lit
tie business passing at the moment,
either on milling or export account,
both branches of the trade hesitating
to operate until more settled condi-
tions prevail, although the scarcity of
offerings would, in any event, preclude
activity in the market.
Harvest is now in progress in the
earlier sections of the Inland Empire,
and the present week will practically
mature the winter wheat crop. Some
little damage has been occasioned by
hot weather while the grain was in
the milk, but not enough to cause any
readjustments in estimates of a bum
per yield. With about the usual carry
over, and, with the promise of we'll
sustained values, the outlook for a
4 profitable season for Washington grow
ers appears to be an assured one.
Receipts of wheat at tidewatel
points during June for North Pacific
ports aggregated LOO cars, bringing
the total for the fiscal year up to SO,
795 cars or 40,5O0,000 bushels, of which
Portland received 1866; Tacoma
9,241 cars and Seattle, 7,949 cars.
Flour-There has been no change o
Importance in the flour situation. While
some dealers are inclined to replen
ish stocks at present levels, the gen
eral tendency is to follow the marke
and keep close to immediate require
ments, though it appears that the bot
tom has been about reached from
present conditions in the wheat mar
ket. Buyers and sellers are boil
chary about entering into EXTENSIVE
engagements for oriental delivery, ant
the market is without activity.
