Inquiries for Flour Factor.
CHICAGO. March 22. Assertions that a
large fleet of merchant steamships from
Holland and elsewhere was on the way to
the American seaboard helped to lift wheat
prices today. The close was strong. 1 to
2o net higher, with May at $1.86 to
$1.86 and July at $1.57 to $1.67. Corn
gained to lc oats to c and pro
visions 15 to 20 cents.
Announcements that the United States
Government was making inquiries for flour
and had let hardtack orders tended to In
crease bullish sentiment regarding wheat.
There also' were Indications that railway
freight conditions were improving eastward
from Chicago.
Fresh advances tn corn resulted from
bullish estimates of the yield In Argentina.
Oats hardened with corn and wheat. Re
ceipts were . light.
Provisions rallied, owing to the strength
of grain. Lower quotations on hogs had
only a transient depressing influence.

FEED SUPPLY IS HONING SHORT
Eastern Oregon Stockmen flare Enough to

BAKER, Or March 22. (Special.)
Alarmed over the acute feed shortage, which
has affected several -counties In 'his eec
. tlon. R. N. Stanfleld. Speaker of the House
of Representatives in the recent Legislature,
passed through Baker yesterday on- his way
to hla new sbeep ranch on the Snake River,
near Roblnet. Mr. Stanfleld said that most
of the sheep and stock men here have
enough feed to. last them until April 1, but
are aeriously concerned about" what they are
going to do after the present supply runs
out.
"Most of the stock and sheep men are
now feeding short," he said. 'This, of
course, will result in- no Inconsiderable loss
In beef and mutton shrinkage. Besides this.
in numerous sections they are forced to
feed grain, which, coupled with the un
precedented high prices for hay, will eat
4nto their profits. I rind the situation in
-Umatilla and Baker counties to be about
the same."
