v Grain.
There Is practically no change in -thel
markets from the quotations of last
week.; So far as wheat is concerned,
there is none to be bought at the pres
ent figures. . The best regular quota
tion by local shippers Is 52 cents, al
though 68 cents per bushel has been
paid by the feed store men, and It is
reported that one of the flouring mills
had offered as high as 70 cents.
While wheat is coming up steadily,
flour, is following close behind, and
jesieraay .was quoiea at 90 cents per
sack. v--. . 4 ;
; Mill feed has not advanced as rapidly
as wheat and flour, the market yester
day being steady at from f 19.00 to
121.00' per ton. ;
- Potatoes. - . ' i
There seems to be a little more life
in the potato market this week than
was shown the first of last; and while
the ruling price was about 25 cents per
bushel, few are being offered at that
figure, and-grocers say they hare to
pay a little more than formerly, which
means that the market Is beginning to
looK up..
