hey keep buying corn will probably

interest in corn is large and the coun-
try is the best buyers Receipts will
begin to fall off and we advise buying
corn. ...........
Harris, Winthrop & Co.: We can
not advise purchases and feel that
without sustained leadership wheat
should be sold.
a.. Shea rson, Hammill e. Co: Although
there may be much that is exagger-

mite regarding the damage to the
wheat, the sentimental effect on an Il

many hullish possibilities
s. 3. Chaplin & Co: Continue to
buy wheat on all moderate setbacks.
Provision situation is strong and
