WHEAT CHICAGO, April 3 (AP)-Grain futures prices coasted through most of today's alow trading within narrow price fluc tuations, after a fairly active demand put September wheat back at the max imum quotation and lifted oats and May rye fractionally. September wheat slipped H cent a bushel under fairly heavy pressure yes terday for the first time in several weeks, was bid again at the ceiling in opening transactions today. May rye stood its ground here most of the time despite declines of as much as 4 cents a bushel or more at Winni peg, but the advances in oats failed to hold and prices generally were slight ly under yesterday's finish.

National Potato Letter- Grower's Reports To uve Greater Effect On Market In A Five And Dime Store must-: With a not too difficult Job ahead in cleaning up the 1945 late crop, acreage for the 1946 potato crop and month to month growing reports will influence potato markets more from now on. The 18 late surplus states ore now scheduled to have 1.695.600 acres in 1946. according to growers' intentions reports, a reduc tion of about 8.5 per cent from last year. The decline is heaviest in the west, 12 per cent below 1945, compared with a 7 per cent acreage reduction in central area and 25 per cent reduction in the eastern states. The acreage pattern shows, however, that in 1933-44 the eastern states, with average yields 34.6 bushels above the average for the group, had 29 per cent of the total acreace. These states now have more than 30 per cent. The west ern area formerly had about 26 per cent of the acreage in the group, with yields 44.1 bushels over the average. Now the western states have 31 per cent. This represents an acreage shift toward the higher yielding areas, in which smaller acreages, can produce the same or larger crops as compared with the lower yield areas. The twelve remaining late states are down o.i per cent irom last year, but they are down 23 per cent from the average, which emphasizes the shift toward the high yielding commercial areas. In the intermediate group, a 3 per cent acreage reduction is indicated, zargeiy reflecting the influence of New Jersey, which is down 10 per cent from 1945. Here again, the high yielding areas have a significantly higher proportion of the acreage in comparison with the 1933-44 period. In the early areas, acreage is shown as 2 per cent over last year and 6 per cent over acreage. In this group, the shift to high yield land is equally remarkable. In that nearly 14 per cent of the 1946 acreage is indicated for land able to yield 215.4 bushels per acre more than the group average, compared with only 7.2 per cent in the average period. The one area alone, in this group, has the capacity to produce more by Itself than all the early states together did 10 years ago. For the United States as a whole, the indicated acreage with yields equal to the 1940-44 average would produce a crop of 36,705.000 bushels. This is a little more than the 378 million pro posed by the Department of Agriculture as 1946-47 requirements, but with heavier demand this quantity should clean up at support prices or better. If we get a repeat of the record yield of 1945, however, the croup would jump to about 412 million. Two factors still may alter planted acres as compared with currently announced intentions. It is still early, and strong markets could influence a change in intentions in both the intermediate and the late states. Also, the prospective acreage is the smallest since 1893 and serious drought or blight in anv imnortant section nnulri change the prospect from one of reason able plenty to winter-long shortage for me auto iaie crap manteiing season. Movement Movement last week wa frratifvlntf but below the previous week. Total for the 7 days was 7126 cars, an average of 1188 cars dally. Maine jumped 762 cars, but all other important areas were down. Biggest drop was in the Red River valley which was off 667 cars from the previous week. Such areas as Colorado. Washing ton. Oregon, Nebraska-Wvomine. show stronger evidence of a prompt clean-up. Maine seed now is a heavy percentage of the total movement, and represents possibly one-half to two-thirds of all Maine shipments. Government cars now are negligible, with only 14 cars dur ing the past week although 54 cars of manufacturers including starch, alcohol, flour, dehydration, and glucose. Demand and Markets . Markets this week generally- are more consistent, with a weaker tone in some that were too strong before. Maine re ports a light demand, market slightly weaker with 5 out of the last 7 reports showing prices 10 to 15 cents below the previous week. Idaho, demand has been slow, market about steady, prices un changed from last week at 15 to 20 cents over ex-ceiling. North Dakota de mand has consistently ruled very slow, market dull and weaker, prices 10 to 20 cents under the floor for very few sales. Colorado reports the demand light, market steady, prices the some ns last week at 5 cents over ex-ceiling. Wis consin demand continues light, market about steady, too few sales to establish market, Michigan has ruled fair, market about steady, prices 5 to 10 cents below last week and about 10 to 15 cents under ex-ceiling. Upstate New York reports slow demand, market slightly weaker after a sharp mid-week break nnd prices 35 to 40 cents under last week but still 15 to 20 cents over ex-celling. Dade county, Florida, demand has ruled mod erate with the mnrket about steady. Dade county prices have shown con tinued recovery from the low of two weeks ago, now ruling $2.00 per 50-1 u. bag. Terminals generally reflect country reports. New York reports old, dull and weaker; new. dull. Chicago reports old stock demand slow, market dull: new. demand fair, market firm. Atlanta has held steady for all stock. Boston ruled dull and slightly weaker for old with no late report on new offerings. In Detroit, old stock has been dull with new holdings firm. Minneapolis re ports old stock dull with new offerings slightly stronger for best. In Phila delphia, old stock has been dull for Idahos, weaker on others and dull on new. San Francisco continues to dem onstrate the strength of western stock in coast markets, with Klamath Russets quoted at $3.75 to $4.00 for U. S. No. 1, size A in LCL lots at wholesale. Late Crop Clean-up Looks now as though there will be an easy clean-up of 1945 late crop ex cept possibly In the Red River vallcv, which had 20 per cent of the total March 1 stocks almost double its stocks of last year and about the same as were re ported in the Red River valley at this time in 1944. We see no difficulty any where else, regardless nf the e.irlv prnn . Canadian demand still is heavy, but 13 reponea as tailing on somewnat Be cause of dissatisfaction with the com mercials being offered. Other export deals now are dead. Alcohol and glucose plants are expected to take fairly heavy shipments of deteriorated stock how ever, beginning immediately. USDA is inviting bids on the dehydration of around 1,500.000 bushels, to be pro cessed in potato-producing areas. The Red River valley will continue to have trouble with bad condition -due to field frost and overloading of storages. This condition probably means a headache In winding up the loan program, as both borrowers and USDA are likely to take losses. WEATHER Max.
