Holding of Oats Raises Price.

Not enough oats are offered to keep
up with the present demand and the
holding back of supplies is slowly but
surely forcing up prices. There is a
difference of opinion in the trade as
to the quantity of oats remaining in
the country, some dealers declaring
that stocks have been reduced to a
point much below expectations, while
others assert that the unsold supply
is heavy and that the carry-over into
the new crop will be of record size.
Whichever side is right. there is no
question as to the bullishness Of hold
ers, and their refusal to sell has
brought about a stronger market For
prompt delivery, s26.25 was offered at
the Merchants exchange yesterday
and $26.75 was asked. The same price
was bid for June oats and $3.50 was
asked. On the Sound, the demand for
oats was stronger than here A part
of the strength of the market is cred
tied to the pending government order
The barley market derives much oi
its strength from California, where
continued dry, warm weather is eact
