Wheat is at highest point for the year. It looks like a rapid advance Q
and some reaction is due, but general conditions still favor higher prices Q
later on. Not muoh demand from millers, they are waiting for market O
to settle. ?
Corn is slightly higher, but receipts have been heavy and demand not so ?
good. However, the market looks firm. Our receipts of corn last week ?
were five thousand bushels, and but for the snow, would have been that ?
much this week. We'll watch the market closely and do our best *
for you. X
Clover seed has been advancing. Crop is short, especially sapling. X
We have fairly good stock at close prices. X
Will have seed oats, alsyke clover and Spring phosphate. X
I Bran still scarce and high. Have a car now a month overdue?<just
getting small quantities in. ?
Farm produce looks much better all around. ?
Live stock and wool are higher. Corn still very cheap, but it may ?
have its day soon. Anyhow, the farming situation will right itself Q
without artificial help. ?
Prospects for coal strike look good, but market is so dull generally, that x
few seem stocking up. Freight will likely be lower April 1st, so prices x
will likely decline. x
Yours for business, x
