The competition is so keen t ha t as high as 8.c has been paid at primary points for lids nort wheat, which means somewhat over UP; here. The size of the valley crop is so small that there Is nothing doing in that grade in an expert way not half enough of the grain being grown to sup- lv even the local milling demand.

Parley Is quiet, but figures quoted seem to be firm. Hay market continues last trong tone, with no change in being quoted. Kxport flour sales are slightly In creased, with a fractionally better price tiling generally: While for a time somo of the Interior millers were will ing to unload as low as $" -0 net, the ores at interior points have been gen erally noed about zitr a barrel above this. While the orient is not offering generally over $3.4'", 3.4;, a barrel, no sales at this time are reported under $3.I0, and from that figure millers are asking up to $3 70, according; to brand.

The failure of the stock brokerage firm of A. o. lirovvn ( Co. caused some liquidation In the market today hut the tone held very strong and while some losses are shown from tli inch point, the market closed generally higher. American Smeller, common, and Rock Island, pieforred, were the strongest features during the session although Southern Pacific again struck the hlgn point of last week when .it went to 100 S- The strength In Rock Island pre ferred, was due to rumors favorably j affecting the ro.ul's future and at ono time duriny the day the issue had ad- vanced ,i points.

Professor K. K. Klltott of the "Washington State ! colli-ge., was in the city yesterday on ids way to Pullman from Alaska, where lie made a -special In vest Iga t ion and study of the "Alaska" whe.c. j heralded throughout the country as tho I corning wheat of the west. Mr. Kllloi' j says "Fields of Alaska wh.-at ex amined wtll not run over 3.1 bushels to the acre and the highest rooordeii yield for wheat is 100 bushels lo the Her". Twcnty-f'.ve per cent of the wheat in Adams' field is not entirely Alaska wheat, but Is badly mixed with other varieties. The head droops ho.ivllv and will lodge badly. The heads are not of uniform size. Wheat is never found i growing wild. Not even in Alaska. it : will be but a few years before "Alaska ' j wheat will be but a memory." I'KOIU'CK IX SAX KHAXt ISt'O.
