It is estimated that even more will be required to fulfill needs at the mills and on the market until the new crop is harvested. Prices are as follows: soft Thessaly wheat at 3.95 drachmas per oka (about 1.28 kilos), Medana at 4.19 drachmas, hard Thrace wheat at 4.60 drachmas. Prices of secondary grains, although considerable quantities of them have arrived from America, are slightly increased. Corn is being sold at 3.60-3.90 drachmas, barley 3.90-4 drachmas and bran at 4.30 drachmas. Cottonseed is being sold at the new market price of 2.70 drachmas per oka.
