season in the history OF the north
coast flour trade, Japan is able to
offer cotton flour sacks in large com
mercial lots, and the shortage of

middle Western manufacturers wfn
not be felt here.
Millers during the week have been
asked to place orders through Seattle
importing houses in lots of 1O0, 900 or
more. No firm quotations are made,
but orders will be taken subject to
cabled confirmation. First prices
named are $50 per thousand sacks
below going prices named by Ameri-
can mauufacturers (. o. b. Seattle.
That the Japanese manufacturers
are out after business for their new
est competitive commodity is shown
in the fact that their agents here are
offering to print trade-marked labels
on the face of the sacks, faithfully
reproducing designs and color so es-
sentiaI in the movement of flour into
the Orient. Seattle millers say that
considerable American flour is sold
in the Oriental markets, particularly
through Hongkong, by the label and
its coloring Should the shade OF COL
or vary from light to dark or IN
any visible degree from the estab-
Iished ocular impression, buyers file
claims. intimating that the flour is
under the grade to which they are
accustomed.
