Henry Smouse, in the city Mon
day from the farm north of lone, 1
reported lots of moisture in his sec
tion for the time being and that he
would welcome sunshiny days for
a while. He was eyeing the wheat
market with interest, and though
pleased with the upward trend, said
Teported quotations so far were based
on Portland delivery and that by
the time the freight and other dock
age is made the price actually re
ceived by the farmer is not nearly
so big. For instance, $1.16 at Port
land means a maximum of about
$1.04 at home and probably less than
$1 by the time deductions are made
for smut, mixture, light weight or a
number of other things which may
lower the wheat grade.
