OATS MARKET UP
ALL ALONG COAST
The oats market is booming and
higher prices are being forced in all
Pacific northwest sections. For No.
1 white $34 a ton is now being freely
offered for track delivery Portland,
but even at this high figure there is
but a scant supply available
Speculators are absolutely in con
trol of the situation and are seeming
ly in no hurry to force transactions.
Most of them already have a long
paper profit on their holdings but
they aro asking more. One prominent
interest asserted that No. 1, white oats
are likely to sell as high as $40 a
ton in a limited way before the new
crop is available.
While there is only a small amount
of business passing in the wheat mar
ket this is due almost entirely to the
lack of offerings. While millers , are
freely bidding track basis of 87c for
club and 90c for bluestem, holders are
asking a cent above these figures and
say they will not sell for less. Buyers
say that if they want the wheat they
must pay the price.
