GRAIN. Reports of further spread of
rust in the spring wheat areas of
both the United States and Canada
together with moderate offerings of
winter wheat caused wheat markets
to strengthen generally last week.
Spring wheat showed most strength
-.eflecting the rust situation the out
come of which depends upon th
weather. High protein brought sub
stantial premiums. Export bids ad
'anced and soft winter was strong
on limited supplies of good quality.
Pacific coast markets were quiet. Cen
tral western barley markets declined
slightly but California held steady.
Corn made further advances.
LIVESTOCK. Good killer cattle
a ere generally steady with poorer
grades tending to weaken. A litle
brouder interest in fedeers was noted
but trading is very limited. Hogs
were steady for well finished stock
i.ot too heavy but grassy kinds and
t.eavies were not too strong. Fat
Iambs came in liberal numbers on
most markets and prices inclined to
weaken slightly. Feeders were steady
to weaker according to market.
BUTTER. The San Francisco mar
ket was steady but at New York, Chi
cago, Philadelphia and Boston mar
kets were easy to unsettled with
s'ight price decline. Receipts and
into storage movements are lighter
but the shrinkage in production is ir
regular. Preliminary estimates place
'.ne August 1 storage at 10 to 13 mil
lion pounds ahead of last year.
HAY. Light receipts continued to
give some strength to the cash mar
kets, but country trading was dull
and western alfalfa draggy with prac
tically no trading in the Yakima val
ley. FEEDs. In spite of some weakness
in feed grains by-product feeds prices
are well maintained generally with
limited offering being readily ab-

orbed. On the Pacific coast demand
is better in the south than toward the
north which reflects relative produc
tion of hay and grain in the two
ateas.
WOOL. A strong situation with
,rcod volume of mill buying but coun
try buyers retiring from the field
feature last week's reviews. Receipts
of domestic wool in eastern centers
iiave been unusually heavy but im
ports have been correspondingly light.
Manufacturing Is on a much better
oasis than a year ago.
HAIRY VETCH. Recent reports
confirm earlier ones of increased
acreage and production and small car
ryover. Prices have weakened slight
ly but are still about in line with last
year. Cash seed in foreign ports if
seiling at a small premium over September-October
delivery.
APPLES. Latest reports indicate
the smallest crop in the United States
for twenty years except in 1921, but
more apples in Canada, England and
Europe than last year. The crop on
the Continent, however, is not up to
average. Economic conditions in thf
irincipal importing countries are fa
vorable. PEARS. The United States ne ir
crop is estimated at 69 per cent of
last year. The Canadian production
is relative. y more promising than n
this country and in Europe where
production is expected to be much
less than average except iu the high
er regions of Austria and Switzerland.
