SEED MARkETS-Chicago, Feb: l.
The flaxseed market is steady and Tor
good reason. Those who hold are conf
dent. Those who hold nothing would IKE
70 get in, but afraid. In the markets or
the world flax is worth every cent winch
now maintains: but how long? That IS
the question. We have 1t that the hold
ers are disposed to squeeze the price up
to the point that there will be, less seed
ing. This being true. was there ever
anything more wicked? To spite the nose
that lives on the face! What does any
one think Of such a proposition? Elm.
mate the acreage by making the price Of
seed prohibitory to the expansion of
acreage. What would your crushers DO?

CHICAGO, Feb. IA good export de-
mand overshadowed other bullish factors
in a strong and active wheat market to-
day, May closing 11s@114c over yesterday.
Corn closed 9sQ49c and oats 1sc improved.
Provisions at the close were shade bet
ter than yesterday
May wheat opened 45Q5sc over yester-
days close at 675s@6724c, supported by the
Paris advance and the prediction of
cold wave. The market touched 6712c
and then the ascent began, which was
continued to the end. Trade was active
and the market broad. Liverpool turned
strong and advanced on reports OF wealth
er menacing to the crop in France, and
1t was learned, the same cables reported,
that Argentine shipments would be de-
layed The conditions were a support to
the local market.
The most cheerful news, however. from
a bull standpoint was that the export
demand which, day after day, has been
labeled slack" had improved. In con-
firnation of this New York reported 50
loads taken for export, while 100000 bu
were sold here for direct export. The
price for May was steadily bid up to
GSssQ68ikc, at which 1t closed 11s91Ac over
yesterday. Primary receipts were 44lOOO
bu, compared with $4,000 last year. Min
neapolls and Duluth reported 1853 cars,
Local receipts were 179 cars, none Of
which graded contract Atlantic port
cfearances in wheat and flour were equal
to 207, 600 bu.
The corn market was strong and active
the greater part of the session. There
was a good shipping demand, and shorts
bought literally. The main influence in
the strength was reports that the Argen-
tine crop was suffering from extreme
heat Liverpool was higher on this.
Country offerings were small. Local re-
ceipts amounted to GAO cars; May ranged
from 1880 to 339sc, closed as@Ac over
yesterday at 33130SS5sc. Commission
houses led the buying, while scalpers
took profits on long corn.
The oats market was strong, but the
trade was small. The strength of other
grains was the main factor. Receipts
here We're 17S cars May sold from 1880
?S12c to 233s@2S%zc, and closed &c UP at
E9ssc.
In the face of heavy hog receipts and
lower prices at the yards the provisions
market showed strength which excited
the admiration of traders. Liverpool
was we'll up on products and the strength
of grain was factor. Offerings were
light and the demand excellent, particu-
larly from one influential concern which
naturally caused buying by lesser inter
ests. The market was lower at the start
rejecting the heavy hog receipts, but
this was more than recovered. May OPP

Receipts were light, running quite a lit
tie under the corresponding day a year
ago. The butcher market was a shade
weaker in spots. The offerings were
largely cow stuff with only few scatter
ing head that were choice. Butcher steers
offered were mostly half fat with only a
few head that brought better than $3.50.
Better grades of stock cattle were in good
demand at fully steady prices, but the
fair stuff was slow and weak and the
common stuff practically unmovable at
any prices. In some cases common cattle
that came In on Monday are in the pens
without a bid on them. Good to choice
stock calves sell well. The bull market
Is steady with good demand.
