GRAIN Light frost in Canada and reports of further rust damage on both sides of the boundary caused sharp advances in the wheat market last week. Official estimates as of August 1 indicate less winter wheat but more spring wheat in the United States and more spring wheat in Can ada than estimated a month earlier. The Canadian crop is late, however, and there is still danger of damage from frost as well as from rust. Strong premiums for protein continue to be paid. Export demand on the Pacific Coast improved. There were no important changes in the Euro- pean wheat situation. A smaller crop of barley than last year is expected in Europe and Japan and the Califor nia crop is short, but for the United States the production of barley this year is estimated to exceed 1926 by 1,200,000 tons. Markets held steady last week with prices materially above a year ago which reflects high prices for corn. FEED More firmness has been not ed in feed markets owing to the firm prices for grains. LIVESTOCK Firmer prices for well finished cattle and improved de mand for good feeders but some weak ness in poorly finished killers marked the cattle markets last week. Good fat- lambs and choice feeders were Lteady generally and up a little at some eastern points, but ih-between Kinds were scarcely steady with re ceipts increasing. Hogs were up at San Francisco but steady to lower at other points with receipts nominal. WOOL Some slackening in demand was noted at Boston, but on the whole the situation continued firm last week. Mills are being advised to buy for needs during the next few months at present prices. Advisors point to a firm foreign market coupled with small stocks of imported wool in this country and an improved demand for goods. CLOVER SEED White clover seed production is expected to be slightly larger this year but carryover small er than last year. Prices have not been established. Crimson clover seed is moving quickly at prices to grow ers about $1.50 more than a month ago and $5.25 more than a year ago. Wholesale prices show a greater in crease as compared to last year rang ing from $17.50 to $18.50 per hundred pounds. VEGETABLES A record breaking crop of onions is forecasted. Fifteen northern and western states are ex pected to produce 18,313,000 bushels. This would be 2,500,000 bushels more than last year and 5,000,000 more than the five-year average. Supplies of late shipping cabbage are expected to be large owing to high yields in prospect in late states except Oregon Colorado and Indiana. PRUNES The latest official esti mate indicates that California will produce 408,000,000 pounds of dried prunes this year or 108,000,000 pounds more than a year ago. DR. SAMUEL H.
