AS to the future price of wheat,
prominent Chicago dealer, says. III
we have moderate crop of wheat,
this year, prices will go above dol
lar in December, if not sooner. This
is sure thing. Go back over the
history of the wheat market, and you
will find that whenever we have had
large crop, small crop, and then u
moderate crop, there was heavy ad-
vance i'll prices about December of the
third, or moderate crop year. Just
put on your thinking cap, study up
this matter and you will find that l
am right. The man who buys your
wheat at present prices, or lower,
will have Il bonanza, for I believe we
are going to have a moderate crop
this year."
