Wheat-The wheat market was

of the advance. From the. Argentine
came word of unfavorable harvesting

small and flour demand seems to be
improved with sales to Japan this
morning. The commercial west re-
ports the sales at Minneapolis nine and
one-half per cent larger for the month
OF November than a year ago and %
per cent larger for the first three
weeks in December than for the same
period last year. Continued dry
weather in the southwest was a fac
tor with the July option, which was
in active demand from commission
houses. During the last hour selling

that the farmer will hold his good corn
until the price more nearly meets his
