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.

OP MARKET.
Steady Prices Are Expected to Prevail.
Breeding? 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. The
breeding ewe department continues active
and is carrying an increasingly large vol
ume with quotations at $12 to $18 per head

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.
