Crops in Poland the Baltic countries were still in an unsatisfactory condition but some .movement was reported fa Fran" , and The Netherlands. Weaih er was still too cool and dry in most PrnuST 11 / and crops are backward Vi or wbeat in Roumania are ! moderately good and are reported good m Hungary Harvesting reports ! continued favorable from Italy while waimer weather was improving crop m England. A partial crop failure i seemed probable in Lithuania and i.atvia was m the market for grain unng the week. Russia was also leported short of wheat, particularly m the northern part, and was report-1 ed to be buying Argentine-wheat in European markets. This had a .-tlengthening influence upon the Liv-' e* pool market, particularly early in the week Prices of native wheat were slightly lower in Germany and Italy but quotations on good native ; milling wheat at Paris were advanced about 4c per bushel. CANADA: The condition of the Canadian wheat crop continues favor able and trade agencies interpret ?°". dlt J? ns in tbe Prairie provinces as ..indicating a crop of around 455,000 - j °P° bushels against 440,000,000 bush- i Produced last season. The outlook 1 is particularly promising in Alberta 1 with moisture ample and the crop un- ! usually clean. Satisfactory progress ' ! s reported in Saskatchewan although m P a rts °f the Southern districts the i crop was still showing the effects of ! uneven germination due to the ! drought earlier in the season. Wheat was coming into head in Manitoba on July 4 and except for slight drown mg of grain in the Red River Valley no other damage has occurred in this province. ' WHEAT : Harvesting of new win- i - wheat proceeded rapidly during ; the week in the Southest and wasl well under way in Kansas, Nebraska I and Missouri at the close. 1 Kansas heat is reported of good i quality and is showing higher pro-1 tein content than generally expected by the trade. An average of about 12 per cent protein is indicated by early samples. The heavier movement caused a decline of 5c-12c per bushel m quotations on cash grain in the Central Western markets, since de mand was only of moderate volume, Mills were taking only sufficient new grain for immediate needs and there was little export inquiry at current prices. The outlet for ordinary quali ty grain was limited and discounts for heavv moisture were materially increased. No. 2 hard winter 12 per cent protein was selling at Kansas City, July 6, at 8c-llc over the July price, which closed at $1.25%. 12% per cent protein was selling at llc-14c oyer, and 13 per cent protein at 14c 17c over the July. Exporters were bidding around 1c over the Chicago September price f. o. b. the gulf for new winter wheat for July shipment for export. Ordinary protein No. 1 hard winter was .quoted delivered Galveston at $1.41-$1.43 while higher protein types were bringing 4c-9c premium over these, quotations at Fort Worth. Receipts of new wheat ter ^ er ? beavy at ^ ichita with general week at Omaha was being bought to at under tbe Chicago July Haivesting of soft red winter wheat *' as also getting under way and No. k - ed Wmter fo , r duly shipment was being contracted for at St. Louis at »1*4-41.84*. Old No. 2 red was sell in K at the close of the week at $1.72 and No. 2 red from Texas and Okla boma was being offered inthat mar ket at $1.68 on July 6. The market was dull at other soft winter wheat markets where receipts of old grain were liRht and no new wheat was yet bein ^ offered - No. 2 red was quoted at Clncinnati an ^ Toledo at $1.70. CASH WHEAT: Cash grain in the mi»* wheat markets did niî fallow the dechne in the winter wheat mar kets but held generally firm with Premiums tor medium and high pro tein sli gbtly increased at Minneapo lls - 12 per cent Protein No. 1 Dark Northern was quoted in that market at 12 c-lhc over the July price of $1-34U. 13 per cent protein was selling,' at 27c-34c over and 14 per cent P rotein at 39c-46c over the July. Fancy Montana wheat was quoted at $U74Mî-$1.8(H£. Mills were active buyers at both Minneapolis and Dul utb and elevators were also taking P art ot tbe offerings at the latter market. DURUM: The market for durum wheat continued dull, although prices were not materially changed during * be week. No. 1 Amber was quoted at Minneapolis at from 1c under the Duluth July price of $1.22 to 25c Top premiums for Amber and mixed xr ^ u ^ u !b were about 20c over with v 0, 1 red durum quoted about 1c der the July price * PACIFIC COAST: Pacific coast markets were fir m with a good de mand frobl mill s for good quality * ram - No - 1 hard wheat was quoted at SanF rancisco at $2.30 per 100, or $ L28 per bushel, while fair quality * e ® d wbeat was bringing the same prdce a * kos Angeles. The Oriental d ? mand !° r wheat from the Pacific Northwest will probably be materially reduced during the next two or three mont bs since the largest crop in a " umber of years is reported to have been harvested and in the lower Yan £t. s e Valley in China. Marketings wheat have been heavy and prices at milling centers have drop ped to lowest level since 1924, Lo cal wk eat for immediate delivery was quoted at Shanghai, July 2, at $1.08, compared with American No. 2 west ern re d at $1.59 cif Shanghai and for No. 3 Canadian. Local mills wer . e said to he running at full P ari ! y an d stocks of flour emulating. RYE: The rye market developed a weaker tone and prices tended down ward. Prospects for the new crop! are still unusually low, according to trad e reports, but demand has been rather inactive recently although ket receipts have been light, stand is rather thin over most of the important producing area and the crop is beginning to ripen in the southern districts. No. 2 rye was selling at Minneapolis at the close of the wpek a f tbe July price to 2c j ;er, which would be equivalent to abcut $1.14 $1-15% per bushel, CORN: A continued active demand for the relatively small arrivals of corn at the principal markets advanc ed cash prices 2-3 cents per bushel, Prospects for the new crop were above the average at the first of July according to private trade estimates and a crop around 275,000,000 bushels oyer the average of the preceding five years is in prospect, according these estimates. The rapidly di minishing supplies of old grain, how ever, is apparently offsetting the fav orable crop prospects and the market un ca were ac mar The to continues in a firm position. No. 3 yellow was quoted at Chicago, July 6, at $1.06-$1,07% and at Kansas City at $1.03-$1.04. No. 2 yellow was quoted at Omaha at $1.01 and at St. Louis at $1.09-$ 1.09%. There was an increased demand for sacked lots at Cincinnati where No. 2 yellow quoted at $1.12-$1.13 and No, 3 yellow at $1.11-$1.12. OATS: The oats market also con tinued independently firm although the cool, wet weather during June ma terially improved tfye prospects for the new crop. An outturn well above the average is forecast in private trade reports on an increased acre was Farmer's Union Lewistown Local, Montana Division of the Farmer's Union , realizing the need for a genuine "farmers' gov ernor," have endorsed our member, Roy E.

Weather conditions have been very favorabl during th past two weeks and th crop made good progress, accord ing to trade reports. The crop is in a wide stage of development, howev er, as a result of dry weather earlier in the season which caused consider able delay to seeding in many sec tions. No. 1 flax was quoted at Dui uth at $2.1 <-<£2.20, and at Minneapo lis at $2.15-^-.l<S per bushel.
