Country buyers took white wheat at interior points for eastward shipment last week with premiums over Portland export price. Pacific coast wheat markets were firmer as demand rose, with some red and white wheat moving to Atlantic ports and Minneapolis. No. 2 soft red winter held firm in St. Louis around 1.46 to 1.48 a bushel. Pacific northwest white wheat sold around 1.10 to 1.25. World wheat market showed little trend. exports this season total 15 million bushels vs 3 million last year. Russian crop expected similar to last year, possibly limiting exports.
