Liverpool closed sd highe. Receipts
here today 40 cars. year ago As. The
Price Current in its weekly summary
says: Wheat is starting out well
under favorable weather conditions
for the fall seeded crop" A cable
here today from Argentine said that
locusts are damaging the crop badly
In the Santa Fe district and that in
other sections 1t will be ten to
twelve days before ready for harvest.
More moisture shown over the win
ter wheat section this morning.
Armour was buyer of December
wheat today. Hulburd Warren & Co.,
were sellers of May. Pit conditions
will probably continue to rule prices
for time. Local stocks of wheat are
light and spot wheat at outside points
is firmly neld There is no denying
ton, but it may take four or possibly
six months to develop it. Sea- ping the
short side of May wheat on the
bulges, will probably make money.
but 1t Is not very attractive, while
the December pit situation is strong
and we believe purchases of Deem
Der wheat on soft spots will continue
to result profitably.
Corn-Liverpool closed unchanged.
Receipts here today 100 cars, year
ago 1903. The weather map shows
moisture in all sections and wet

with harvesting and marketing. The
Cincinnati Price Current says:
"Husking returns shows the corn
yield equal to expectations. The
weather is now the most important
factor in the price making. Large
sales of December must be filled; the
movement is delayed and the corn is
not grading well. The strongly bear
ish attitude of the Patten interest is
an important factor. We believe May
corn should be sold for from to SC
a bushel around the present figures.
Oats Receipts here today 122 cars,
year ago, SO. We have not altered
our views on oats. The strong in
terest who are long the cash oats
and the December will not be shaken
out and continued purchases OF De,
| cember by leading local interests
continue to attract attention. Patten
brokers continue active on the bear
side of the May delivery. We believe
/ purchases of December oats on soft
spots will be profitable.
