ARW1 MARKET TREKD
Can't Be Burt
Corvallis. Ore., July SO. BREAD
GRAIN The general tone of the
wheat and rye markets was weaker
again last week. The movement of
hard red winter continued very
heavy and spring wheat prospects
were generally quite favorable. Pre
miums were paid for dry grain suit
able for milling. Soft red winter
wheat did not follow the decline In
hard winter. Soft red winter was
quoted from $1.50 to $1.55 in cen
tral markets. Latest official infor
mation indicates a world bread
grain supply probably a little small
er in 1928-29 than for the year just
past
FEED GRAIN Corn markets
held steady but barley and oats de
clined sharply. The prospect for
larger and earlier crops of barley
abroad as well as in the United
States was a weakening factor, al
though demand for feed grains has
been keen because of scarcity of old
stocks.
HAY, PASTURE AND FEEDS
Seasonal dullness with prices mov
ing toward a new crop basis char
acterized the hay markets. Sup
plies of top grade alfalfa have been
limited but much damaged hay is
offered. Statistically, the hay sit
uation is much firmer than a year
ago. Feeds in general were also
lower because of seasonal influences
and fair pastures throughout the
country generally. Milling of al
falfa increased in July well above
previous months and exceeded July,
1927 bv 13,000 tons.
DAIRY PRODUCTS The San
Francisco butter market ruled firm
last week with 92 score bringing 46
cents. Prices on the Coast are about
four cents higher than a year ago
and stocks in storage are about 1.
500,000 pounds less. Eastern mar
kets were barely steady and trade
was slow. Prices are higher there
also but storage stocks accumulat
ed more rapidly last week than
year ago which tended to reduce
the storage shortage. Production
is probably about equal to a year
ago.
LIVESTOCK Fat lambs declin
ed again last week in leading mar
ket and grassy killer cattle were
lower. Well finished cattle were
steady and hogs advanced on cur
tailed shipments following previous
price declines.
WOOL AND MOHAIR A littl
more activity in domestic markets
with fine wool in better demand
but somewhat lower prices in Eng
land featured last week's wool mar
ket reports. Mohair was quiet
FRUIT The dried prune mar
kets are reported slow, with buyers
in Europe assuming a waiting atti
tude and contending that quotation;
are now too high in view of stocks
on hand, the supply of fresh fruit,
and lower quotations on Yugoslav
ian prunes. Official advices however
indicate that stocks are not excess
ive and that there may be some im
provement in the situation if Euro
pean dealers become convinced that
prices will not be lowered in the
United States.
