comment was again favorable on
wheat and corn. These grains are TO
hold their market position and avoid
bear influences for the present. There
is enough cash corn demand to firm
the sitl alton. Corn husking is only
just commencing and corn receipts
may be small for 10 days. News on
Argentine corn offerings and on Ar
gentine new wheat crop is mixed. Very
little more Argentine corn will come
to America. Oats comments are flab-
by. Canadian mill feeds and oats are
coming here. Chicago cash grain house
has bought $500 tons of screenings in
| Canada. Oats, however, should dis
| play rallies. Oats receipts are due TO
drop permanently this month. Pro-
visions have received a little timely

Wheat is under domination of final
Argentine news and the 105,000,000
surplus estimates remain unchanged.
western quilts contribute a special
opening of week testimonial to ease
with which Europe has drained the

Wheat has scored fall decline and
recovery. The recovery guarantees
some permanence of current levels
