THE MORNING OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, JULY 27, 1921 WHEAT BUYiraG 1PJ COUNTRY l& LIGHT Little Change in Prices Merchants' Exchange. at FARMERS HOLDING CROP Growers of Tmatilla County to Meet "With Merchants Exchange on Discount Rules. Advance on two graea of wheat for fferHember delivery of one cent a. bushel were the only changes from Monday's fig urea as a rau It of yesterday's session of the Merchant Exchange. The advances were recorded in the quo tations on soft white and white club and in each Instance the bid price went to $1.11 a bushet .A continued lack of tradinr In the coun try districts was reported yesterday owing to the fact that growers are unwilling to accept prices which are now being offered- Dealers are offering prices under the distance from Portland. In the ma jority of instances the farmers are said to be holding out for a dollar or better and there has consequently been an Inability on the part of the purchaser and the grower to get together. It was announced yesterday that a com mittee representing the farmers of Pen dleton and Umatilla county will meet with the Merchants' Exchange members Thurs day afternoon at 3 o'clock for the purpose of discussing the new grain discount rules. With a view to providing transportation from the interior for the wheat crop, C. A. I Heywood of the San Francisco & Portland ' Steamship company announced that the steamer Lewiston will begin operations on j the Lower Snake river on August 10, ' handling grain from Purrington, Central I'erry, Neces Bar and other points. The Canadian forecast received yester Aay by the Merchants Exchange said of weather conditions in the wheat districts to the north: "Manitoba and Saskatchewan showery Tuesday, "Wednesday fair and cool. Al berta fair and cool today and Wednesday." Russell's news service gave the follow ing on the Liverpool market: "Flour one shilling higher. Wheat fea tureless. October advanced Id from yes terday. Argentine corn easier on lack of support and more disposition to sell. Con siderable offering of No. 1 Manitoba wheat. Market closed wheat Id lower han open ing, corn half pence lower on Platte for July. September $4 d lower." The 1U20-21, wheat yi3W of Australia lias been estimated at 130,000,000 bushels, according to reports received from the American consul at Melbourne. Wheat there Is still under government control, all wheat being pooled ancujocal sales con- trolled by the commonwealth wheat board. A price of os, wmch is 91. at normal ex change, per bush-el has been guaranteed "by the commonwealth government for II wnaac aenverea to me Australian wneai pool. A reported sale of 160,000 tons of wheat to Germany at a price lower than that charged for local consumption has been confirmed by the Australian wheat board. The price for flour for local consumption . in Australia has been fixed at 21. There is no fixed price for either flour or wheat for export. . Terminal receipts, in cars, were reported ty the Merchants' Exchange yesterday as follows: .

As a result of the present strength of the cheese market and the unusual de mand which has been developing, an ad vance in prices Is expected by the trade within the next few days. An especial demand has been evident for several days for Tillamook cheese, with the inability to supply this demand. Orders for cheese are coming in not only from the east but also from southern and central California. The Tillamook association has announced that it is short and that it is unable to take care of only a small percentage of the orders. At the present time the Job bing price here on full cream triplets is 5 cents, with Young Americas and Long-' horns a cent higher. An advance of 2 or 3 cents over this price is considered not at all unlikely. Cheese markets in the east also are firm, and in Wisconsin there was an ad vance several days ago. The general firmness of the cheese market Is declared here to be partially due to the heavy buying for export. The buying at New York began around 164 to 17 cents, ac cording to advices received here, but at the close of the week sales were made up to IS y and 19 cents. There also has been a strong demand for cheese for local consumption and for speculative purposes, and this has added to the scarcity. The local butter market is holding steady, with no price changes. There is a good demand for the higher grade but ter, which is hard to get. The egg market also is unchanged. Current receipts were being purchased yes terday at around 29 and 30 cents, with some higher grade stuff at above those figures. The review of the butter and egg mar ket received yesterday from Swift & Com pany at Chicago follows: "A larger supply of eggs than is re quired for current use has resulted In some being placed In storage, and lower markets in producing and consuming cen term. The quality is not generally satis factory, due to weather conditions, which emphasizes the necessity for greater care of eggs on the farm and more frequent marketing. Butter production is keeping up re markably well, considering weather con ditions, and the market In Chicago is closing with a little easier tone. "Receipts of poultry have been liberal. and markets are generally quoted on lower basis, resulting in lower prices for live poultry In the country." Standard feed , 23.00 23.00 23.00 Corn . No. 2 E.

Trading In tDCk today was a Uifle broader and more active but the increased dealings were largely at the expense of values, many leadera show ing extreme declines of 1 to 2 points. President HardinE's messafe urging Pay-. ment of obligations to the railroads, farm credits and facilitation of exports failed to stimulate bulltsn initiative. Rails were listless and little altered, but steels, equipments, oil, motors and the many specialties more or less dependent upon those issues were under intermittent pressure. Leathers were adversely artecieo or me poor quarterly statement of the Central Leather company, and advices trom tne middle west nd New England indicated further slackening o industrial production. Sales 38O.000 shares. Publication of the United States steel corporation's statement for the second quarter, issued after the close ef the sea son, showed total earnings of $21,892,016, the smallest returns of any quarter since March. 1013. The nnlv develoDment in the money mar ket where call .and time loens held at recent quotations, was a slight easing of rates for bank acceptances and additional buying of commercial paper. Another Ta ction in foreian exchange, wixn espeuiai heaviness In Scandinavian remittances was a sain ascribed to sales In London and Paris of sterling bills against purchases-of dollar exchange. Business in the bona maraei ieu slightly, but the recent strong tone among rails and new corporate olierings was unj maintained. Liberty issues were Irregular, but most Internationals ignored the weak ness of exchange, showing variable ad vances. Total sales, par value, 10,.o,oou. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS.

Primary receipts continue to show large, totaling 2,974,000 against 1,312,000 last yeac - Some conservative people seem to tnina the peak of the movement will be over in two weeks. Export sales of wheat re ported so far amounted to 350,000 and more said to be working. Cash prices here and at eutside mar kets were reported as higher. Trade on the whole was very quiet, but we believe prices would be stimulated with a mod erate amount of investment buying. Corn futures were limited, to 1 cent ran ire during the first half of the session out at no time a Dove yesterday's close. xport sales were reported at 500, 0O0 bushels from here.' The weather over the belt was generally clear and warm with little or no moisture reported. Forecast, however. Is for somewhat cooler weather and probably thunder showers ever a great er part of the beit in the next 36 hours. While corn iff - not suffering for rain to any great extent, rains over the northern portion of the belt would be of great benef i t. Cash prices for corn here and other markets averaged somewhat lower. Deliveries were 143.000 bushels and esti mated cars 250. Majority of traders are looking for lower prices. Oats -Started higher at opening bu gradually eased off with corn. Cash houses "vera the leading- sellers, evidently for country account, commission houses bought on limited orders. Cash oats prices were unchanged. Overnight sales were 132,000 bushels. Deliveries 35.000 bushela and es timated receipts 350 cars; Reports coming from parts of Iowa and Illinois speak of disappointing yields and light weight. Trade quiet and without feature.
