were again in better demand as

close of the week at Kansas City at

The demand for spring wheat was
also dull. No wheat has been received
on the May deliveries at Minneapolis
but if any wheat is delivered it is
expected to be of good quality and
mills will likely take deliveries as
they can use lower protein wheat

neapolis was less than half of the
decline at Winnipeg which reflected
the stronger position of the domestic
markets. No. / Dark Northern
