Of forcing butter higher so that It cannot com

advance the cost of butterfat to-snob, -figures
that creamery men cannot compete:' with the

By Hyman M. 6ohei
Flour miller are in a position at th mo
ment Where their future price course is
somewhat uncertain. With the price ol whAat
justifying a further advance of at least "20c
per barrel .all through the 1st, export )
r ml bees us values available ar materially
less than miller can accept. - . t
The extreme view is indicated by the report
f en miller who says th-t North China was
not offering above 84.85 for elub straight
at tha moment for delivery f. a. while
miller are, aakatc ar least $5.40 per barrel
for" tills grade. -
Nevertheless gome figure that a further ad
vance i flour prices is necessary.. It is sa
ally the rule for flour to be somewhat back
ward about following the changes in wheat
price, therefore for that reason th belief is
expressed that a rise in the general flour price
would stkmnlate instead of hurt the export
a well ss domestie demand. Buying is usually
best on price bulge. - -
. MiUstuff continue firm at the adrsncs of
f 1 a ton quoted the previous day.
Coarse grains are firmer.
Wheat market is fairly active for club
