There were offers of $1.51 and 91.52 net to farmers for club, while bids for forty-fold were 2 cents over club, and offers for blue stem were 5 cents over. Not much selling was announced. At the Merchants Exchange wheat bids averaged 2 cents higher than Saturday, with $1.67 offered for bluestem and $1.61 for olub. The Eastern option markets were lower, owing to lack of foreign buying.

The difficulty in moving wheat eastward, due to the car shortage, is being overcome In a way by the use of tarpaulin covered gondolas. The Louisville Courier says of a shipment of wheat from the Northwest to Louisville, just made by M. H. Ho user, of this city; "Mure than 38 tons of wheat were un loaded at the Ballard & Ballard mills yes terday after having, come all the way from the state of Washington In a car without a top, according to an announcement made by R. L. McKellar, assistant freight traffic manager of the Southern Hallway. The safe arrival was an illustration of the devices shippers are employing to circumvent the general car shortage, whose Intensity brought about a Nation-wide Investigation by Interstate Commerce Commissioner C. C. McChord In Louisville recently. "The wheat came to Louisville in a New "York, Chicago & St. Louis Railway gon dola loaded with 603 sacks of wheat whose total weight was 76,200 pounds. The car was carried under a Great Northern bill of lading, plated at Waterville, Wash., October 14. A through rate of 57.4 cents per 100 pounds was assessed. The wheat was covered with a tarpaulin, and the billing carried an item of $40 In the advances to cover the cost of this tarpaulin. Ballard & Ballard advised the Southern Railway Company that the wheat arrived in perfect condition." CANNED 31 ILK NOW AX TOP PRICE Manufacturers Will Not Allow It to Get Out of Ten-Cent Class. The condensed milk market Is very firm. but Jobbers do not Iook lor any further ad , vance In domestic prices. Quotations are as nih now as they can go and still leave canned milk in the 10-cent class. The con densers know the importance of holding th home trade and are not disposed to do any thing to kill It off, as it might be hard to regain after the war is over and prices art restored to a normal basis. Export orders are coming In at t. o. b, factory prices considerably above Jobbing Quotations on this Coast.and these orders are no doubt being accepted, but at the same time the manufacturers are supply lng Jobbers at a lower figure, so as to keep canned milk in the market at a popular price. However, the Jobbing trade Is not getting milk In such quantities that It can compete with the condensers for European business. EGGS TS DEMAND AND HIGHER Receipts of Fresh Ranch. Are Not Equal to Local Requirements, Egg prices are advancing faster now than they declined just after the holidays. Toe cold weather has stimulated the demand and receipts are not equal to the trade's re quirements. The main factor in strength enlng tho market, however, appears to be the reduction In storage holdings, which is turning a larger number of buyers to the fresh article. There were sales on tas street at CTj to 3SH cents, case count, and some houses were asking 39 cents. Street candled were quoted at 40 cents. There was also a firmer undertone to the butter market, but the top quotation on extra cube butter was 35 cents. Prime firsts were quoted at 34 H cents and firsts at 334 t34 cents. Dairy butter was held at 29 cents. Cheese was firm and unchanged. Poultry sold at last week's prices, but receipts were not large nor was the demand urgent. Dressed meats were also steady. BETTER FEELING IN APPLE MARKET Trade Is Inclined to Take Hold of Cood Stock Vegetables Finn. There la a better undertone in the appl market. Low-jrade appws are still hard to sell, but the trade la taking- hold of better stock, and Indications point to m cleaning up of supplies at country points. Prices are no hljfher. but the trade looks ror some im provement In this respect. A' shipment of Japanese orsThges was re ceived yesterday and one more lot Is looked for. Vegetables of all kinds continue strong. Receipts yesterday Included one car each of cauliflower, lettuce and celery, the lat ter being quoted at S5.50 and the celery and lettuce at 2.60.
