Farmers and country dealers show less dis
position than ever to sell corn." said Ed
ward w. Bassett yesterday. THE effect of the
increased rate on receipts here cannot be seen
to any extent yet because stuff contracted for
during November is coming in. But there has
been a large falling off in new corn business
and I should say the dealers here have been
able to buy only about 25 per cent. as much
new corn as they would IL the freight rate were
not higher This advance in the rate Of cents
per 100 pounds, makes a difference of from / to
iI.c a bushe in the value of corn at the
board. and. consequently. We cannot pay as
much to the farmers and country dealers as we
did before Dec. l.
Mr. Bassett would not hazard a prediction
to whether the Eastern shippers will increase
their price OF corn. to make UP for the decline
on account of the higher freight rate. or wheth-
er the local dealers will do this. THE Eastern
shippers have put their price UP. in the past
two years to make up for the increased rate
and this has been done by the local dealers
