FLOUR PRICE LOWER Patents Are Reduced Twenty Cents Barrel by NORTHWEST MARKET $10 f.. i..AmnonAa A,liMn.a In "f U1 Xectl quotations Bulletin. Re ga riling Cur Loading Issued by Tood Administration. Patent flour prices were reduced 20 cents a barrel yesterday as a consequence of th. advance in millfeed prices. Bran and shorts were, lifted SI a ton In the local market Tuesday and yesterday a similar advance took place in the Puget Sound markets. The new quotation on patent flour is $10 a bar rel in all North Pacific Coast markets. The following notice to millers regarding the proper loading of cars has been Issued by Theodore B. Wilcox, chairman of the Pacific Coast district. United States Food Administration, milling division: "Much of the loss of flour through damage In transit arises from poor coopering. Any one familiar with car equipment knows that the cars become very baAly wrenched In transit, and that empties when delivered to the mills for loading have a great many nails protruding from the floor and sides, and that it is necessary to draw these nails, because, if merely driven In. they wlil work out again, and It is these nails and splinters which cause most of the damage. Th flour will naturally shift in the cars either because of rough handling or quick stopping of the train. "Mills should carefully examine the jambs of the doors, as these are frequently filled with old nails bent Into every shape and form, and see that all of these nails are carefully drawn, and several layers of bur lap placed over these Jambs, and this bur lap nailed down with strong wooden cleats. In some cases It would be advisable to put an Inside car door or grain door to keep the flour from sliding against tho car door duftng transit. "Every mill Is not only Interested In see ing that Its flour reaches the customer In the best possible shape, but In preventing loss and damage claims. The patriotic side should also appeal, since flour lost in transit is flour gone, and there unquestionably has been a great deal of waste In this way. Your attention and co-operation will be mu.-h appreciated." Mills are also notified that where their profits have been inadvertently higher than allowable they must not resort to rebating to reduce the profit, but accomplish the re duction through lowering the price of orders on hand or preferably by reducing the price on future sales.

Ewe Department Continues Active. Receipts at the yards wera heavier yes terday, aggregating IT cars, but trading was not very active in any line, cattle and hogs moved wit-iln the former range of quotations. In the sheep department there are evidences ot a slowing down. The de mand la temporarily restricted by the elim ination ot some of the heavy buyers and the supply contlnuea to increase, so that this department is rapidly approaching the high water mark. T-iere is no evidence, however, of anything permanent in the ex luting condition, and after the readjustment which is in process, general expectations are for a steady market at current prices. The quotations are subject to a cut of about 2 Vjc to 3c for shorn animate.

CORN LOSES GAINS Prospect of Freer Movement Depresses Market. CHICAGO CLOSE UNSETTLED Government Will Furnish Increased Supply of Cars to Handle New Grain Oats Are Lower for Same Reason. CHICAGO, Nov. 14. Announcement that the Government would furnish an Increased supply of cars to move new grain had much to do today with bringing about lower prices In tlie corn market- There was an unsettled close, lfec to io down, with December $1.19 and May $1.15. Oats declined o to c net. The outcome in provisions ranged from a setback of 15 cents to a like advance. Throughout the day Ires selling kept the corn market depressed. At the outset the chief bearish influence came from down turns in Wall s-treet quotations. A notice Issued by Board of Trade directors warn ing commission houses not to overtrade in future deliveries acted further as a handi cap on bulls Later, however, the main impetus for selling proceeded from an au thoritative statement that all urgent de mands for wheat having been attended to, more attention would now be given to pro viding adequate railroad facilities tor the prompt moving of corn. Government orders that more than 8000 boxcars be rendered available to protect Federal requirements for feed had a bear ish effect on oats. Provisions declined with cereals.
