been reeelted on Puget aotind. It is atnted
tLat tbe ipinllly la nut detlrable by tlmse who
tat beeu ualug the better known brand of
Pacific northwest butter. Ho far ai knonn
Hone of this eastern "tuff baa entered the
Portland market.
The market price for butter Is showing no
change bere. While It la Impossible to stale
what tba future will bring forth, present de
n.llid fur first claaa butter la eiiinl to offer
ing, therefore no change In price l rontem

market altuatlon. Receipts are fair for this
period of the season. Some Interests are talk
ing still higher prices but the quality they

Eastern Interests continue to purchase heavy
supplies of clover seed at Wlflninette valley
points. While the bulk of the business Is re
ported around 10c a nound. It Is stateil that
10c has tx-eii offered and paid In some In-
stances ou tbe west aide. selling has beeu
general during the last 10 days and the bull: !
of the crop has already been moved. I
Further strength was shown fur wheat at )
leading worid'a centers this looming. Liver - I
pool spot was again higher aid a further j
squeeze was Indicated In Chicago September. 1
Consigning of wheat to tidewater is or a '
rnlher liberal basis and tbe entire country
seems to be tnkiug this method of disposing
of hajf Its cro;. Without these consignments
It la stated that some of the big exporters
would be up against it for Immediate sup
plies, but nevertheless, the trade considers
that they are taking long chances of being

tbe basis of TO to 70c a bushel advance and
the remainder to be on the basis of what the
other half of the crop sella at befcre the end
or the year.
I-ocal grain Interests are somewhat surprised
that h local cereal company should ask high
er prices for oats from Portland thn from
Puget sound on the government contract.
Flour market is reported fairly steady for
the first time in several months, although only
a nominal amount of trade Is shown.

following the sh.irp early advance, local
wheat was higher. On the Portland Mer
chmts Exchange today bids for spot delivery
were unchanged to lc better than yesterday.
Holders were asking a further advance and no
sales were made.
Spot oats bids were unchanged but a sharp
advance of $1 a ton was forced for barley
with a fight between dealers in the country.

Cliicago Wheat Rise
Checked and Close
Is Sharply Lower
Chicago. 111., Sept. 23. (I. N. S.) Wheat
closed l'i(li,c below yesterdny.
Forecasts of unsettled weather in Missouri
and Kansas cauaed a higher opening In the
wheat pit today. Values In wheat were Va to
19dC higher. September corn opened 1 Vic
lower, deferred options iielng i,c up. Oats
waa unchanged to Vic higher at the outset.
An acute situation prevails In wheat rsc
cause of the unsettled ipieitlon regarding de
liveries of Velvet chaff. Frost reports in
northern sections of the belt brought about a
further advancea In wheat later lu the trad
ing. All options jumped 1c a bushel.
Feeling in the pit Is gradually turning bull
ish. Cloae observers In the trade fay that
cash wheat h worth the money and that there
N no occasion for being bearish on futures at
enormous discounts.
Corn held fslrly steady. Weather condi
tions and the cash situation are the domi
nating factors In the market. Outs was In
clined to advance. Provisions were sllehtly
higher at the opening, with the trade light.
The entire market turned weak at tbe clos
ing, all advances being lost.

ernor fipry with death if he did not
