WEEKLY GRAIN
MARKET REVIEW
Minneapolis, Feb. 25, 1921.

On a cessation of damage reports
and publication of private estimates
of large farm reserves of all grains
a weaker market tone during the
week resulted. The official govern
ment report of farm stocks on March
LIST will be due for publication on
March 9Th, and it is quite the general
opinion that, at least for present
needs, supplies are ample, especially
in coarse grains.
In wheat it is estimated that the
movement to primary markets from
July 1st to February 1st is about Ga
million less than the previous year,
and that in the same period there has
been exported about 105 million
more flour and wheat than in the cor
responding time during the preceding
year.
1t is our estimate that, ever if no
more wheat be sold for export from
now on, with the present indicated
reserves we have a surplus of slight
ly less than 100 million. Should
there be no more material sales of
wheat overseas such an amount,
though a small margin to cover emer-
gencies, may prove adequate. 1t
should be considered, however, that
in the five month period from Feb
ruary to July last year, 8 million
bushels of wheat were sold to Europe
and that we are now approaching the
"crop scare" period.
Whether additional sales to Europe
will develop depends undoubtedly on
the price and credit arrangements.
1t is now generally regarded as GER
tain that the Southern Hemisphere
surplus will continue to undersell
American wheat, since we are now
closely adjusted to a domestic supply
and demand basis.
The oats market continues quite
featureless and like corn has little to
recommend its purchase except the
low price. Reports from Illinois,
Iowa, South Dakota and Minnesota
plainly indicate that there is at pres
ent a free movement of corn from
first hands. The weather is favorable
for Smelling and it is evident that
much of the selling is induced by
financial stringency more acute now
than ever. Moderate export sales of
corn continue, but with apparently

For the present the action of wheat

SCORING HEAVILY
MAKING A GREAT RECORD ON
THE BALL DIAMOND. THE
GAMES LAST WEEK.

Last week was a most successful
one for the Brentwood baseball team,
and they made record that would
please the most enthusiastic fan.
Wednesday the Brentwood boys met
the fast Cuthbert team on the latter
diamond and played them a tie game,
the score being to E. Brentwood was
leading the score to 3 when Taylor
hit high fly to center which could
have been easily felded, but it landed
in a nearby garden and scored two
men. Each team scored one run later,
and the game was called at the end
of the ninth inning on account of
darkness.
On Friday the Brentwood team met
and defeated the strong Leslie aggre~
CATION by a score of to 0. Jack Hol-
land, of G. M. c. fame, and an old
Brentwood lad, performed the mound
work for Brentwood, pitching almost
no-hit ball, giving up only one hit.
Only two men reached first base, and
one of them was from being hit by a
pitched ball. Holland also featured
with the willow, scoring three hits out
of four chances. Pinkston received,
and was in his usual fine form. Wade
in center also played notable ball,
which is nothing more than natural
for this lad
Friday afternoon by winning from
Ellaville by a score of 7 to 2 another
victory was added to the weeks con-
quests. Johnny Waller worked for the
locals and Emmett did the receiving
and their work was most satisfactory
to the fans.
Thursday of this week Sylvester
will journey over to Bronwood for
one game, which will be a pitchers
battle between Jack Holland and
Graybill.
All of the team have reported ex-
cept Acleva Gammage, who is at Cor
