GRAIN NOTES

Western advices are that Armour in
terests were cunning for long lines in
all grains 1t is also said that on a
further break from this level the Ar
mour crowd would cover some corn that
they had been short for a long time.
Oscar Lyle reported from Topeka,
kahs.: From what | can gather here.
the Kansas corn. crop is around the
Government indication of $4,000 900
900 900 bushels. There will be an in
creased acreage in wheat in Kansas.
largely on acres lost in corn. Seeding
conditions are excellent"
The Chicago Inter Ocean says:
"A great many bulls were to be found
on grains last night particularly i'm
wheat. They were more positive OF
their position than for several weeks
past There were also a number of
bears who were equally as emphatic.
Corn and oats bulls said that The
market has sold-Out appearance and
looked for further advance. Bulls
made the point that cash premiums
were firmer ard that the big run OF
corn is over. They also expect an i'm
provement in the cash demand"
Bartlett. Frazier Company says,
"Wheat-We are inclined to look for
narrow market to-day. but the SELL
ing pressure seems TO have rather run
its course for the time being.
"Corn-With the September delivery
out OF the way after to-day and cash
property finally lodged, we are inclined
to look for a better shipping demand,
which Of late has been of small proper
lions.
"Oats-The market showed more rail-
lying power yesterday and with a
lighter movement from farmers and
dealers, it is more than likely that with
in a short time good inroads will be
made In the present large stocks in
sight. Should this occur. it will have
Strengthening effect.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. OF lard are
fairly liberal with foreign houses COW

Building Figures Lose.
Building figures for September,
1918, showed a loss of over 100000
compared with the figures of Septem-
Der, 1912. The totals are $367,6
and $56S, 5S7, respectively. Building
officials attribute the loss to the fact
that the period in 1912 was unusually
good rather than that 1913 is short.

ing, declares that he came near losing
his life in an effort to capture the
ring.
