Judy Meineke arrived back in Lakeland Park on Sunday after a three week wonderful trip to "sunny California." The only thing that marred the trip was the fact that all Judy's luggage was lost in a baggage car fire. What's killing is that Judy bought all new clothes before leaving on this trip. Judy and her grandmother, Mrs. Harry Meineke of Des Plaines had a super time on their western jaunt. They stayed at Disneyland for two days and were on hand from the minute it opened until they closed up for the day. Other trips included a visit to Marine Land. Hollywood. Knotts Berry Farm and Fisherman's Wharf in Frisco. While they were in- Los Angeles they visited Mrs. Irene Culbertson.

Main cause of the market instability is uncertainty about the amount and quality of grain that will be harvested this year. Quality is particularly important in the wheat market, because small changes in the position of wheat make big differences in the bread, biscuits and cakes that can be made from the flour. WHEAT PRICE PATTERN* The 1 •""ulcal pattern of whe&t prices in recent years has been a 20 to 30-cont drop below the support level at harvest time and then a rise to within about 5 cents of the support level. On charts the price of wfteat makes a pattern about like the small letter 1h. A loop is made each year. Ther support level Would be a lin6 jufit above the top of the loop. This year wheat prices followed the usual pattern of decline, apparently reaching bottom the third week in June. Then reports or much lower yields than last year, harvesting difficulties and uncertainties abour1 in" baking qualities of flour made from Some of the new wheat brought a sharp price rise. The price support level is $2.30 a bushel at Kansas City, St. Louis and Chicago. The runup "carried prices of both hard and soft wheat 5 to 8 cents a bushel over the support level at Kansas City, but the advance at St. Louis and Chicago at 2462-M.

As we have reported befp|e,.' there is no surplus of soft re^pmter wheat--the kind grown east and south of a line drawn frQrtv;Chieago to St. Louis. Illinois, I^aiama and Ohio are the three big' producers. Many yields in Illinois wil be far short of those in {§57; <. Indiana seems not to have tf||p^itiurt quite so much. Ohio has prospects. HARD WHEAT. Our big surplus is largely in hard red winter wheat. This class of wheat is grown in ^g^jtern llinois and in Kansas and surrounding areas. Much of that region got twice as much rain as usual this spring, but that made for good yields. The southern1 edge of the wheat belt got excessive Amounts of rain. much gredter than normal rainfall causes the uncertainty about wheat quality Heavy rains in Kansas and Nebraska late ih June caused some crop loss there and were a factor in runnning up prices. , ^ i Rains delayed both maturing and harvest of wheat and tended to put a squeeze on available market supplies. „ Most of the winter grown in western Illinois and in wheats will be in the bag--or July. t Hard red spring wheat, which is grown mostly in North Dakota and surrounding areas (and Canada), makes flour similar to that made from hard red winter wheat. Crop prospects are good in the spring wheat states. Price support rates for the 1957 the same as foi" the 1956 crop. An average support, price of $1.78 has4 been announced for tha 1958 crop. , L. H.
