DAHO WHEAT GONE
California Now Depends on
Oregon and Washington.
STEADY DEMAND FOR RED
Shipments During Xext Three Months
May Equal Movement in Past
Quarter Former Prices Ob
tainable In Local Market.
little wheat is available in the North
west now tha-t buyers ara not making much
of an effort to get in touch with sellers.
There is still a steady inquiry from Cali
fornia and this ia certain to continue
throughout tha season.
The shortage of supplies is most pro
nounced in Idnho. According to reports
received that state Is cleaned Dp of last
year's crou. The Californlans. therefore,
"will have to look to Oregon. and Washington
during the remainder of the season for the
what they need.
California is using as much feed wheat
now as at any time this year. For the next
three months that state will, in all proba
bility, take as much grain as In tho past
three months, their purchases . having aver
aged close to J.OOO.WO bushels a month.
On the Sound the millers have largely
withdrawn from the market 'and" they are
oitering a cent less than last week. The
cealers there, however, are as strong as
evt-r and the same applies to the dealers
here. " In the local market 9o cents is.
available for club. 91 to 91 cents tot red
and 9." V: cents for -forty-fold. Bluestem fs
nominal, as there is but little demand
fof it.
The country mills are also inactire in the
wheat market. They appear to have suf
ficient stocks of grain for the present. If
they wanted more th-y might not be able
to buy it.
Trading in oats and earley continues
quiet and the old prices are quoted.

WEATHER HURTS STRAWBERRY TRADE
I-aj"CS Shipment Received From l-'resuo.
More l'lorida Tomatoes In.
The weather yesterday was against the
strawberry trade. The street was well sup
plied, but sunshine and warmth was neected
to move the fruit. A shipment of 00
crates arrived from Fresno and offered at
52.402.50. Florins came through mostly
In bad order. Los Angeles berries cleaned
up. but another car is cue from there today.
The orange market is very rlrm. Small
srzes are now selling at the same price as
regular sizes. A good supply la on hand,
but they are going into consumption freely.
Vegetable receipts included a car each of
lettuce, mixed vegetables and Florida to
matoes. Asparagus was In larger supply.
Hood River grass cleaned up at $1.2." a
dozen. Shipments also came in from
Walla Walla and Kennewlck.
LOCAL POULTRY TRICKS ARE BETTER
l-'ractional Advance Noted in Kgg Market.
Dressed Meats Steady.
The poultry market wa lightly supplied
and prices were firm all arouird. Hens sold
at 173 1S cents. Dressed meats were
steady, at the old quotations.
Egg receipts were well taken care of. The
Jteneral quotation was 10 cents, but on smaii
lots 18!i cents was obtainable.
There was no change in the butter or
cheese markets. The supply of the latter
is increasing at the coast, but there is no
excels yet.
Lime Bean Holders Bullish. .
T'.eports received from Oxnard, Cal.. indi
cate that a further advance is looked for In
the spot market for firied lima beans in the
very near future. . The Middle West ap,
pears to be willing buyers and are prepared
to pay what is asked. Farmers, are said to
hold 13.000 to 20.000 bags available for con
sumption and will not sell at present, de
manding prices far above the present mar
ket. No argument presented to them along
tho lines that would tend to show a curtail
ment of consumption is of any avail, their
motto seeming to be "When we have no more
limas they cannot 'bo consumed."
Large Block of Yakima Hops Sold.
A block of -Sa bales of Yakima hope was
bought yesterday by AIcNetf Bros. The price
was not made public. This deal cuts down
the unsold supply of Yaklmas to between
lioO and 700 bales.
No business In Oregon hops, either spot or
futures, was reported. A California wire
Ticited the sale by Flint of 100 bales ofjl'Jlu
tfacramentos at IG'i cents.

Lightness of Delivery Becomes
Acute at Chicago.
RUSH IS MADE TO COVER
Prices Bid Up Vigorously and En
tire Market Arfected Further
Talk of Median Hy in Middle
"West Stock Decreases.
CHICAGO, April 14. Lightness became
acnte today in the May delivery of wheat.
Offerings sere so scarce that shorts who
wished to cover had to bid prices up with
such vlor as to afreet ino entire market.
The result wejs a' strong close at to c
net advince. Corn finished the same as
laat night to HSc higher, oats unchanged
o 'ic off and provisions down a shade to
10c.
In the oversold condition of the wheat
market prices were sensitive to talk about
Hessian fly in Morthwestern Missouri. North
eastern Kansas and Southern Illinois. Addl
rlonal force to bullish sentiment came from
a biir decrease In the world's available stock.
On the other hand, there was a good deal
of surprise over suddenly enlarged arrival
at Winnipeg.
Active purchasing on the part of bull
leaders proved successful finally In overcom
ing the effect of heavy corn liquidation sales
from miscellaneous holders. It was said
that Argentine dealers were attempting to
combine to bring about higher prlcea.
Oars severed company with corn, owing
to Ideal weather and because of liberal ship
ments from Minneapolis to Chicago
ProvUlons sagged late In the day under
selling- credited to Parkers. The strength In
vorn. however, and the lightness of wheat
led to some covering by shorta.
The leading futures ranged as follows:
