Rhubarb and Spinach Have Prices
Cut from Them.
Uncertainties in the flour market
are the order of the day in interior
points following the slight slump in
Portland yesterday. Wholesalers had
received no word here at 11 o'clock this
morning f rom - Portland dealers.
It is believed here that the cut at
Portland was principally a momentary
one resulting from a sudden drop in
wheat. If wheat recuperates it is not
likely the depression will reach inter
ior points.
Spinach and rhubarb are two com
modities of trade . on the geocery
boards that are showing tendencies of
depression, and both of these articles
are selling slightly cheaper today than
previously. . .
