Milling Demand The milling demand v. only | fair volume as most mills are well | stocked with wheat, and the flour} demand continues sluggish. The | heavy movement of spring wheat has | practically eliminated the demana} from the spring wheat mills for hard winter wheat, The export demand in| the spring wheat markets was le ive than in the winter wheat mar- kets, due partially to the undesirable quality of a large percentage of the; spring receipts. The arri i spring, wheat at both Minneapolis | and Winnipeg show the effect damp harvest, and more than on third of the Canadian receipts we reported to be grading No. 3 or low er. Good dry wheat was in excellent demand from both mills and shipper at Minneapolis, and premiums held around 20 to 22¢ over the Dec. for the best quality of No. 1 dark north ern spring wheat. Red winter wheat prices continued very firm and at a premium of about 10e per bushel over the hard winter wheat. New high prices for the crop year were reached at Cincinnati and other winter wheat markets. particularly by} and Germany, was renewed . and prices advanced 6 to 7c during the week. European requir ments are much larger than last ye: because of much smaller production) in the principal producing countries, and this is causing an urgent export demand for all offerings of rye from} this country. Exports to date are) larger than total exports for last year. rs Corn Weakens Continued favorable weather for the maturing of the crop, together | with the approach of the new crop] movement, had a decidedly weakening influence on the corn market. Lower | cattle and hog prices were also & weakening factor and prices declined 4 to 5c. New corn is being marketed | in increasing quantities in Texas and Oklahoma. Fort Worth receipts of Oklahoma corn are reported being sold to exporters for shipment to! Europe. The first cars of new corn were received at Kansas City and Indianapolis during the week, but no movement of volume is expected for about 30 days. The movement of ola corn continues of good volume, and stocks in the tinue to inc to $8,000,000 bushels compared with only about 1,000,000 bushels at corresponding time lust year. The cash demand is only of fair volume as feeders are substituting oats and other cheaper grains, The movement of oats continues very heavy, and stocks totaling around 60,000,000 bushels have now accumulated in the principal markets. Prices declined slightly with corn, but the tone of the market continued fairly firm as the trade apparently considers the oats market too compared with that of other grains. The demand for oats was fair - tive from both shippers and cereal interests, The barley market continued firm, and there was an excellent demand for the good malting grades. Dee barley at Minneapolis advanced 1 3-8 cents and closed on Friday at 89 7-8 cents. Cash barley at Minneapolis was quoted at from 76 to 91 cents, and No. 3 barley at Milwaukee at 91 to 98 cents. Export sales of about 150,000 bu. were also reported for the week. Flax Upward The flax market continued its up- war trend as receipts continued lighf. There was no material in- crease in receipts at Minneapolis and Duluth, and the Canadian move- ment has been very slow in getting under way. Eastern crushers were active buyers of flaxseed on the Northwestern markets in an effort to obtain their supply before the close of Lake navigation.
