The possibility of any Selling pressure k very Remote. Surplus stocks Are dangerously Low and the new wheat is just being seeded in a fairly satisfactory seed bed but this crop will have to go through Many weather changes before it is made next december. This does not apply to Corn or flaxseed cd for which the demand is very restricted while the War con j tines in Europe. I As regards Oats Barley and Rye it appears that supplies remaining Are very sufficient for any Normal demand but any improvement in the european demand would be immediately reflected in the Price of these grains As the surpluses Are not abundant.

Despite the Calls made upon the Canadian pub Lic not Only to support the War measures financing for Many Pri vate charities and for increased taxation the amount of savings in creased from the previous month by slightly More than it was however less by rather More than than the saving deposits As at the same Date a year so.
