2 OMAHA, Dec. q. 1911
Good strong Liverpool cables encour-
aged wheat buyers today and unfavorabls
news from Argentina started shorts "a
covering and the advance was sharp.
Pit conditions favored n rally, as prices
have had n five-day decline and the
newly created short Interest was easily
stampoded. This rally ls probably only
a temporary one, as the general situa-
tion is n heavy one and the holiday sea
son favors sellers.
The short Interests I'm corn were forced
20 run values Up with the advance In
wheat and the clearing weather over the
corn belt. II Will be impossible Tor ele-
vator people to prepare enough contract
corn In the next few days 20 relieve the
situation and n squeeze Is more than
likely.
Heavy rain In Argentine and a strong
Liverpool market gave wheat strong
opening. and shorts covering advanced
prices still further. Cash wheat was &c

HOGS-Hog salesmen had more or less
difficulty In keeping the market from
becoming saggy, some little business in
bacon weights showing in spite of their
efforts. Trade as a whole ruled steady
good heavies and butchers getting the
best support In spots the market for
light averages appeared fully as high as
yesterdays trade. but most buyers were
inclined 10 cheaper cost especially on
high mixed stuff, and nickel declines were
not lnfrequent.
Modest receipts had no visible influence
upon the demand, and Il required two
or three hours OF slow buying 10 make a
complete clearance. The estimate called
for only ninety loads and OF this total,
shippers and spectators purchased fully
20 per cent. smostly averages around IN
10 80 pounds
Range in prices showed a slight tend
ency to widen, due entirely to weakness
in lights. and margins between spreads
for butcher and lard stock remained un-
changed The best heavies on sale
brought $6iS. Identical with yesterday
top. while light aud high mixed hogs
ranged from 800 down to S.60Q575.

presence OF blight In the Argentine was
followed by word that one authority had
made 100000 busheis reduction In an
estimate OF the Argentine export surplus.
Hulls were further encouraged by the
fact that Minneapolis stocks had In
creased only 1900 bushels in five days,
against 10000 busheis during the corre-
spending time a year ago. Special at
tention was given TO statements that
cash, wheat AZ the big milling centers

buskel Nav ranged from 9S4c TO 99hc
