PRICES SHARPLY HIGHER
IN PACIFIC N. w. MARKETS

Wheat futures prices in Pacific
Northwestern markets advanced along
with those at important Midwestern
markets during the week ended Aug
ust 8, The Department Agriculture re-
ports. Cash wheat prices were up a.
long with futures with the principal
classes showing advances of IL
cents to Z IL cents per bushel COM
pared with week ago,
Trading in cash wheat for nearby
delivery however, was limited by slow
demand from all classes of BUYERS.
Cash wheat trading was mostly for
deferred deliveries rather than prompt
OF nearby, and largely on warehouse
receipt basis for later shipment at
| buyers option. Closing of several Pa
cific Northwest flour mills becaues of
labor difficulties restricted demand
from the milling industry materially,
and this together with the acute stor-
age SITUATION al NOIUn OUaSC terminals
made for extremely light trading in
the cash market despite the higher
prices. Wheat receipts at Puget Sound
and Columbia River terminals contin-
ued relatively heavy at 1.644 ears
for the week against 1875 last week
but mostly represented movement to
Coast Terminals for storage, rather
tran current marketings.
Flour sales under the indemnity
plan remained light and about the
same for the past two weeks. Indem-
nifty payments remained unchanged.
Wheat nillfeeds markets held very
firm at recent advances. Rains delayed
harvesting during the period but good
progress was made generally, with win
ter wheat harvest completed in some
areas aud spring wheat mature~or ap-
preaching maturity. Good to excellent
Yields are reported in all aectious OF
