Show BEAR RIVER VALLEY LEADER, THURSDAY, JULY 25, 1929. WEEKLY GRAIN MARKET REVIEW The grain ma relet developed a decidedly firmer tone during the week ending July 20 and prices advanced sharply, according to the weekly grain market review of the U. S. Bureau of Agricultural Economics. Continued unfavorable progress of the spring wheat crop both in the U. S. and Canada was the pricipal strengthening factor in the wheat market and furures advanced sharply to the middle of the week, declined somewhat at the close, but averaged about c higher than a week ago. Rye advanced with wheat despite the slower demand for that grain. Feed grains were also higher with broad grains and reflecting the prospects for a smaller crop. Flax continued firm. The marked deterioration in the Canadian wheat crop since the begin-in- g of July was confirmed in the official and trade reports released during the week. The Dominion bureau statistics reports condition poor in sestern Canada. Conditions in the stern Dart of Manitoba are some- t.'7iat better than in the western part of that province, Saskatchewan crops have suffered seriously and prospects indicate a yield varying from poor to only average. Temporary relief is reported in Alberta, as the result of recent showers, but more rain is needed. Summer fallow wheat has stood the drought remarkable well according to the Manitoba free press while stubble and fall and spring plowed wheat crops have suffered materially and in many sections are nearly a Some rains were reported at the close of the week in eastern Saskatchewan and western Manitoba but immediate heavy general rains are 13-14- fil-ur- e. needed. Most of the crop is headed but much more moisture will be required to finish the crop. Traces of rust have been found in southern Manitoba but any future development will depend Feed intirely upon the weather. grains are generally short and late but damage to other crops is practically negligible. The European wheat harvest is extending northward and little change in the outlook is reported. Threshing returns in southern France are reported very satisfactory although damage from high temperatures has occured in some areas. French millers were fair purchasers of domestic grain id foreign offerings were being Good yields in Italy are confirmed by trade advices and harvesting is making favorable progress In Rumania and Hungary. Prospects in Russia are improving and yields above last year are indicated. The present supply of bread grain appears adequate for current needs without the importation of foreign grain but little domestic grain is available for export. Conditions in the southern hemisphere are unfavor able with continued dry weather. Germination in Argentine is uneven but receipts of old wheat continue liberal and storage facilities are taxed heavily. Germination in Australia is reDorted Door. . r Wheat: Harvesting of winter wheat continues to advance northward and marketings of new wheat are increasing. The recent higher prices brought in larger receipts of old wheat to many markets. The sharp increase in receipts and the lack of sufficient storage space at Galveston has caused that market to place an embargo against incoming receipts effective at the close of this week. Cemmercial stocks of wheat in store at Gulf ports have increased sharply since the beginning of July; protein content of early arivals in the winter wheat markets is somewhat lower than a year ago. The Kansas state protein laboratory reports the protein content of the first 2000 cars of Kansas wheat this year average 11.50 per cent compared with 11.66 per cent for the first 2000 cars last season, with the protein content increasing on later shipments. The analysis of June receipts by the Missouri state laboratory averaged 11.7 per cent compared with 12 per cent for June a year ago but receipts for the first helf of July averaged about the same as that for the corresponding period last year. However, protein premiums declined during the past week and 12 per cent protein No. 2 hard winter was quoted at Kansas City on July 19 at four to five cents over the September price $1.35 and 13 protein at the option to 2c proover; No. 2 hard winter 12V2 tein was quoted at Omaha at $1.37 compared at $1.37 compared with $130 for ordinary protein. Receipts at that market were moderate and the frist new wheat in volume arived near the close of the week, totaling 187 cars; No. 2 hard winter wheat was quoted at Chicago at $1.42 and at St 3 Louis at $1.36 $1.38 per bushel; a at wheat was quoted protein premium over that price at .St. Louis. Soft winter wheat prices also advanced sharply. Threshing and frequent rains were delaying movement of this wheat in the central west and the majority of receipts at St. Louis were grading No. 4 or lower on account of the high moisture content. Demand was urgent at Cincinnati from the mills and elevators but export, inquiry was dull; prices of soft winter wheat advanced sharply to the middle of the week and No. 2 soft red 2 was quoted at St. Louis at but declined later and was quoted at the close of the week at 2 son red wheat ; No. was quoted at Cincinnati at per bushel. Prices of spring wheat in the cash markets did not fully follow the advance in futures. Receipts in the northwestern markets were somewhat larger than a week ago but mill demand was slack. However, a good inquiry prevailed for diversion point -- I I 12-1- -- $1.50-$1.5- $1.45-?1.46- $1.36-$1.3- 7 offerings of good quality. July futures showed a gain 13 c for week while protein premiums declined somewhat and No. 1 dark northern 12 protein qjoted on July 19 at 1 to 3c over the over July price of $1.41; 13 c and 14 Canadian over. spring wheat markets advanced more than domestic markets; No. 1 Manitoba northern closed at Winnipeg July 19 at $1.68, a of gain 2?4e for the week while the generally comparable 14 No. 1 dark northern, which closed $1.54i-$L63- 4 gained on Winnipeg July wheat advanced 20 e and October 17 c per bushel. Durum wheat was firm with spring wheat, drought conditions and smaller crop prospects. Demand for milling durums was slack and the cash marker was dull; premiums were some what lower and No. 1 amber or No. 1 mixed 12 protein was quoted at over Minneapolis on July 19 at the Duluth September price of $l.ZZA 14 protein good color milling durum was quoted at Duluth at over the Duluth September price. Little damage from either stem rust or leaf fust is reported in winter wheat crops in Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio, except in a few localities in Northern Illinois, and in southern and central Indiana. Very little stem rust has occurred to the crop of Iowa and Nebraska but leaf rust is severe and has caused injury to some fields. In the spring wheat area conditions are extremely variable because of differences in rain fall. Leaf rust is heavy and is causing some damage. Only a trace of stem rust is reported in North Oakota and the red river valley where the wheat development varies from the milk to the soft dough state. No stem rust infection is present but in the remainder of the state only slight infection has occured. Moderate infection of stem rust is reported in Minnesota. In Wisconsin stem rust infection is prevalent in about half of the plants. Pacific coast wheat markets were also firmer. The export market at Portland was quite active during the past week with four full cargoes and 30000 tons of parcel lots reported, worked mostly for the United Kingdom. The latter were quoted on the basis July to August deliver. Big bend blue stem and hard white were quoted at Portland at the close of the week at $1.39 $1.40, soft and western white $1.32, hard winter northern spring and western red $1.28 per bushel. Good variety California wheat, sacked, was quoted at $2.25 per 100 lbs. or $1.35 per bushel. Corn: The general favorable weather, especially over the corn belt, did not offset the influence of the strong wheat market and small market stocks of corn, and prices advanced over those of a week ago. Shipping demand was fairly good but country offerings were increased as the market advanced; No. 3 mixed corn was quoted at Chicago July 19 at and $1.02, No. 2 yellow $1.03&-$1.0- 4 No. 3 yelow per bushel;. No. 3 yellow was selling at Kansas 2 City on the same date at and No. 3 while per bushel. Cash com advanced c at iSt Louis despite the smaller demand from industries and shippers. White com was especially sluggish and No. 2 white was quoted at that market at $1.06y2 compared with $1.06 $1.07, No. 2 yellow was quoted at Omaha at 7 c and at Cincinnati at per bushel. 13-22- 3-- 5-- $1.30-$1.3- 2, $1.02-$1.0- their teachers, Mrs. Christina Bott and Mrs. Violet Jensen, motored to the Crystal Springs, where a plunge in the springs was enjoyed by the little folks, after which refreshments were served by the teachers to the following children: Marca Check-ettNedra Jensen, Clara Petersen, Maurine Jensen, Nola Barker, Verla Holman, Alice Howell, Nora Jensen, Leona Nelsen, Nomia Bywater, Catherine Christensen, Mario Check-ettStanley Jensen, Dennis Dallin, Clayne Holmgren, Trude Taylor, Jack Christensen, Theon Hansen, Rex and Ray Barker, Harold Stander, Roy Jensen, LaMar Barker, Calvin Jensen, Lin Stewart Holmgren, Jim Bywater, and Ted Burt.
