not show any marked improvement.
yet the feeling among spring wheat
millers is perhaps trifle optimistic.

that stocks are rapidly decreasing and

Review Of Market Conditions.

Chicago, March 2o.-Lowest hog
prices for the week were reached today,
arrival of storm delayed cars swelling
receipts. There were 10000 arrivals a,
the six pincipal markets, against $4,000
a year ago.
Combined receipts of hogs at eleven
markets Wednesday totaled $4,000, or
$4,000 more than last Wednesday, s.
900 more than Il year ago and 1890
more than two years. Total three days
this week, 224.000. or $4,000 less than
the same period last week. $4,000 less
than the corresponding time last year
and $4,000 less than the same three
days two years ago. Total for 1918 to
date, 3. 100000. or 100000 less than
the same period 1912 and 10000 more
than the corresponding time 1911.
Cattle.
Cattle trade was slow. Unsettled con-
dltlons in the eastern dressed beef
market exercising a restricted infiu-
ence. Light receipts afforded practical
ly the only support.
Even though the stuff bought to go
east today will hit a beef market after
Easter. there was little life to the ship
ping demand. and buyers We're quite
Indifferent, mainly by reason of having
the better Of the supply situation.
Packers reasons for lethargic conduct
were we'll understood, and have been
for some time past. They are getting
along we'll on a hand-to-mouth beef
supply basis and this seems a policy
likely to be maintained by them for
some time to come.
With this prospect in view it will be
bad business for generous loading of
cattle for next Mondays market. and
traders today were hosting distress
signals, warning away a lot of stuff
which they believed owners were de-
sirous Of cashing in. The latter part
of Lent has had serious effect on beel
trade, since high cost consumption OF
it. and surely the day after Easter IS
going to be a poor time to resume no
eral marketing. A generous run next
Monday can only mean severe furthef
price decline. and with the Killers
strongly in control yesterday on little
oversupply, prospect for early reaciioh
even on light run is not luminous.
Wednesdays crop of 5000 made So
600 for the week to date, decrease Oh
$500 from week ago and 1900 less
than a year ago, but with beef traue
conditions in poor shape ii is fortunate
indeed more offerings have not peen
here. The week to date crop at SIX
points stand $4,000. against 10000
week ago and 90, 900 year ago.
Sheep.
Meagerness of supplies. coupled with
good demand. caused t.rmer feeling
in sheep.

Steekers and Feeders.

Chicago, March 20.-Dull and lower
market for beef steers and country
buyers backwardness in going against
supplies at the advanced rates shown
earlier in the week, together with
very fair showing of stockers and feed
ers in the run, caused a slower tone In
the trade IN this department today anc
prices were on a barely steady basis
with the 10M15 cent advances preEl-
ously noted from last weeks closing.
Some choice high-Gualitied feeders
included III the fresh supply sold UP
around $1,000 500 and a load or two "f
high quality got bids up around sSl0
as they came from the country. while
dealers were holding best selected
feshy feeding steers UP around SS.2a.
Most of the trade. however. was in far
to very good 500 to 9o0-pound stock
and feeding stuff that sold largely be-
tween 1925 and s7.s5. Plain and me-
dunn thin light stockers are selling up
around s6.s5d1.15 and some common
little throwout stuff at $3.50 and unoef,
altho there is very little going I'M
der the 7-cent line. There continues
fair good country demand for stock
and feeding she stuff of decent breed
ing quality, but little is available. Good

L.mson Bros. & Co.'S Grain Letter.

1903 Masonic Temple. Phone 1881
Chicago, March 20.-Wheat-Steadi-
ness characterized the market until the
last hour when strength was good.
Some OF the most important buying OF
wheat today was by the same people
who were quietly buying early in the
week. The southwest has continued a
good buyer OF wheat here. There were
rumors of export business. but no con-
firmation OF such business in volume.
Well posted people, however, are under
the impression that considerable wheat
has recently been worked for export,
alrho the public in general will have 10
way OF learning this until the wheat is
cleared.
Corn-Eastern demand shows a little
Improvement and there is no material
increase in country advicsS. Cash corn
showed considerable strength at the
tables and closed a fair portion Of the
difference which has excited between
cash corn and May. ANY general i'm
provement in eastern demand for corn
might lead TO moderate advance.
Southern bids 10 Illinois shippers are
well above Chicago basis.
Oats This market showed less
strength than other grains but closed
q shade higher than yesterday after
being lower most OF the session. Casn
market did not show the good tone
which has been apparent for several
days, even tho the offerings brought
about the same prices as yesterday.
PROFESSIONALISM the lower hog
market. product declined early, but
rallied well and closed strong. Inter
ests which took profits on strong
spots earlier in the month, We're dis
posed TO buy product, especially lard
and ribs. In pork deferred deliveries
were relatively stronger than nearby.
