THE 3IORNIXG OEEG ONIAX, TUESDAY. 31 AY 19, 1914. 17 PRUNE TRADE HALTS Packers Making Little Effort to Contract New Crop. GROWERS ARE VERY FIRM Estimates of Xortliwestern Yield Kange l-roni Six to Nine Million Pounds World Supply 3Iiicn Uess TLan Isa&t Year's. There is still a lack, of activity in the Northwestern prune market, and with the crop situation as It stands, conditions could hardly be otherwise. Packers are making very little effort and some of them no effort at all, to contract with growers. Be cause of the very light crops growers are not inclined to ' talk business with buyers at this time. Estimates of the 1914 crop, made by five or six of the largest packing concerns in the Northwest, range from 6,000,000 to 5,00O,0O0 pounds of dried prunes. This does not Include Eastern Oregon, Eastern "Wash ing ton or Idaho, which sections generally hip their prunes fresh. However, on ac count of the good prices of dried prunes this year, these latter districts may cure their prunes this season. Taking a world view of the prune market, a. leading authority furnishes the following comparison of the prospective 3114 tonnage with that of 1913; 1 914 estimate Pounds California .. .110,000,ouo .

Prices ruling the world over now are fully SO per cent higher than they were at this time last year. It remains to be seen what will occur to prices when the new goods are actually ready for con sumption. DEMAND FOB WTCKAT NOT IMPORTANT Buyer Quoting Lmer Prices, but there Is Little Wheat to Buy. The wheat market continues in a most Inactive condition. Buyers are disposed to quote lower prices, but there Is little wheat to buy and the demand Is unimportant. The Eastern and foreign markets are holding strong and this tends to prevent Coast mar kets from going off faster. In explanation of the strength abroad, Uroomhall says in his International review: "The principal factor in the market dur ing the week has been a diminution in the available supply imported, with a scarcity of native wheat In the United Kingdom and some Continental countries, together with a paucity of shippers" offers for nearby ship ment. Although the world's shipments are somewhat heavier, the proportion to the United Kingdom is small, but I expect further heavy shipments In the near fu ture, because of better roads and the re opening of waterways, which will enable farmers to forward their grain more freely to shipping ports, and these increased ship ments will relieve the stringency of the spot situation, which threatens to become acute. The outlook for the growing crop has been exerting a great influence, which up to the present has been bearish, but according to latest advices, the Spring crops of the States and Canada are not making a very favorable start; although the crop outlook in Europe is generally favorable, there are some complaints from Hungary and Roumania and some parts of France. The distribution of imported wheat Into Europe during April has amounted to 11, 000,000 bushels per week." Crop prospects in the leading exporting countries he summarizes as follows: India Good sales are reported, but the advance In prices has served to check buy ing. Argentina Wet weather Is unfavorable for planting of wheat and also corn move ment. Australia Farmers" holdings of wheat are light. The outlook for seeding is good. Kussiu More rain Is wanted in the south west, otherwise weather and crop prospects are favorable. Some ports are reporting larger supplies. Roumania Kain needed and some reports Blute that moisture is urgently wanted. Hungary Some rain has fallen, but light, and the chief wheat districts are still drouthy. Buying from -Roumania continues on a liberal scale. Local receipts. In cars, were reported by the Merchants' Exchange as follows: Wheat Barley Flour Oats Hav Monday is 17 ; 10 Year ago SS is 14 .

FLY AREA EXTENDS Wheat Has Higher Range on Spread of Damage. MARKET IS UNSETTLED Profit Taking by Bulls at Advance Causes ReactionCorn Breaks on larger Country Offerings. Oats Also Lower. CHICAGO. May 18. Wheat had a gen eral higher range today. Under free profit taking by longs, however, the market closed unsettled at c net lower to o ad vance. Corn finished c to lo down, oats off 69c to c and provisions vary ing from 7c decline to a gain of 2c Wheat showed strength on account of con tinued spread of Hessian fly damage to crops. Nebraska and Iowa sent complaints, as well as Kansas, Missouri and Illinois. Profit-taking by bulls, however, caused a reaction. The market opened a shade off to c up and made a slight further gain, but then 1ob virtually all of the advance. Renewed strength developed as a result of predictions that before the end of the week the Hessian fly damage would be noticeable In most of the territory from Ohio to Okla homa. The close was unsettled. Larger country offerings led to a sharp break in the corn market. Oats, like corn, lost an early advance and something besides. Provisions weakened with corn. The set back followed an upturn due to hog re ceipts not being so liberal as expected.
