Against this, how ever, was continued dry weather in ths western half of the belt and a forecas predicting the same thing tonight and to morrow. In the first half hour of trad ing first prices on the old crops were maintained and the new crops sold point over yesterdays last quotations.
 Around the middle of the morning Jul, was il points up, August was up and tn, new crop months were 4 to 5 up. Profit taking by longs started at this level an, continued until noon, when July was sell Il ing at the level of yesterdays closing August, 8 points up and new crops un changed to 1 point below yesterdays las | quotation.
