LOCAL BIDS CENT HIGHER Japanese Buyers Turn to Australia, Where Values Are Lower Ar gentina Also Competitor. Wheat bidi were one cent higher at th Exchange yesterday, responding to the ad vance east, but otherwise ithere was no change in the local situation. A number of good-aized parcel sales were worked to Europe recently, but no new business of this character came to Ugtx Japanese buyers declared they could get wheat cheaper in Australia than here. Cables from Europe also' said Australia was of fering wheat freely under the American price, having filled up the Indian demand. Argentina has become a strong competitor ot the United States and will be a leading factor until she has disposed of her surplus. It la only the fact that farmers are not in a selling mood, dealers say, that pre vents a slump in wheat prices in the Pa cific northwest. Not much interest wa shown In the coarse grain market. Gray oats were 60 centa higher on bid and others were un ohanKed. The Liverpool wheat market closed V4 to Id higher. Buenos Aires wheat opened steady to cent higher and com and oats unchanged. Weather in Argentina was unsettled. According to Winnipeg advices export ers bought 1,000.000 bushels of wheat. Bronmhall's foreign crop summary was generally favorable. World's wheat stocks on JaDuary 1 as complied b the Dally Trade bulletin were 2:t3.a,0OO bushels versus 247.305,000 bushels a year ago. The export of wheat and wheat flour from China is Increasing rapidly, reports the American consul at Shanghai. In 1913 the wheat exports of China amounted to 4.1oeS'.'4 bushels, and of wheat flour to 94.963 barrels (of 19 pounds each). Dur ing 1920 China exported 23.4.19,270 bushels of wheat valued at I40.33.1.S40. and 5.027. 04O barrels of wheat flour valued at t42.309.000. Dairen Is the chief wheat ex porting port of China, 14.73S.7O0 bushels having been shipped from that port during 1920, while the chief wheat flour export ing port is Shanghai, from which S.930.000 barrels were exported during 1920.

Further decline In butter markets has been'the Important fact during the week, says the Produce Review, Issued by Swift & Co. of Chicago. The decline Is primarily due to large increase in domestic produc tion and Importations of foreign butter. Shipments of nearly 2.000.000 pounds were recently received from Australia and New Zealand and shipments are also being re ceived from Denmark. Additional ship ments of New Zealand butter are expected about the middle of January. The United States department of agri culture, in Its preliminary report, shows holdings of eggs In cold storage on Jan uary 1, 1022 of 904,000 cases, as compared with 408,000 cases on January 1, 1021, an excess of 496.000 casss. Weather condi tions generally have been favorable for egg production and large supplies of fresh eggs have been available on all markets, resulting In lower prices In the producing and consuming centers and entailing severe loss on holders of storage eggs. There has been sn ample supply of poultry marketed during the week. Last year's young roosters are not now as de sirable S3 earlier in the season and are selling at lower prices. Fowls are In lighter supply and no doubt many pro ducers are holding them back on account of the Increased egg production. EGGS SCARCE IN LOCAL MARKET Candled Stock Sells Vp to 35 Cents Car of Storage Eggs Due. The cold weather has caused an acute shortage of eggs In the local market. Buy ers yesterday sent out cards offering 30 cents, case count, to country shippers, or 10 cents more than waa bid about a week ago. The association made no change In its selling price, but the few eggs Avail able on the street sold higher at 33 cents case count and 35 cents candled. A carload of storage eggs is due from San Francisco. Under ordinary conditions they would net be wanted at this late date, but with fresh stock so scarce it is believed they will sell readily. If any change Is made in butter prices. It will be an advance, as the market Is very firm, but no change Is contemplated by creamery men at this time. Poultry receipts were fair, and with the demand small, the market had a weak undertone. Country dressed meats were firm. ArSTRALIAN BITTER IS PITT AWAY Large Tart of Recent Shipment Stored Here and at Seattle. Cold storage holdings of butter in Port land increased 4155 pounds in the past week. This was mainly due to the put ting In of Australian butter, which will be held in hope that the market will Im prove. About 4000 pounds will go In this week. There was also a gain In butter storage holdings at Seattle. Little change was shown In storage egg stocks here or on the sound. Storage holdings of dairy and poultry products at Portland and Seattle compare with last week a. year ago as follows: At Portland This wk. Last wk. Last yr.

Tbe total cjuantiy of Australasian wool offered by public auctions from September 29 to December 22, 1Q2J, in the dominions and la Europe exceeded 1,000.000 bales, compared with a total annual cilp of less than 2.500,000 bales, according to a state ment recently Issued by the directors of the British Australian Wool Realisation association. The quantty of wool offered for sa.e during these three months is more than 50 per cent above the quantity grown during the same period. Offerings of Australia a wool In England and at Antwerp during this period amount ed to nearly 500,000 balea This amount was far in excess of the normal quantipr. either before or after the war.
