OMAHA, July is. 1914
While there were further advances Of
-sdAc in the Chicago wheat market yes
terday. the buying on a report credited
10 Dalrymple, the bonanza wheat
farmer OF the northwest the selling was
considered OF a better character than
George N. LeCount. who is in the
spring wheat country In the interest Of
Finley Barreli a Co, wired that house
that II would be advisable to act with
caution on the more sensational black
rust reports sent out OF the spring wheat
country as some Of them were far from
actual conditions existing here.
Many OF the reports received from the
northwest and which referred TO black
rust, said that with a change TO favor
able weather conditions there Is less
chance for the advancement OF the
plague. There are few buying orders, ac-
companyng the black rust reports, which
led many In the trade, especially tho
more conservative men. to go slow IN
making new commitments on the buying
side.
In the spring wheat country the coun-
try elevator concerns as well as the
farmers do not seem to be alarmed by
possible losses from any cause as the
receipts at Minneapolis and Duluth yes
terday were 0j cars, against l55 week
ago and l6l year ago. This treer
movement failed TO lead one 10 believe
that the holders OF the grain in the
northwest are at all anxious over crop
losses

price changes in wheat, and II was heavy
the greater part OF the day, but during
the latter part it firmed up. September
ruled relatively firmeT than the Decem-
Der. there being less selling pressure In
the former and possibly more covering by
scattered shorts. There were fewer COM
plants received OF dIouth as result OF
the good rains throughout the corn belt
east OF the river.
The decline OF &c In oats showed that
market was an independent one, as II
refused to follow prices In either wheat
or corn. Rains may possibly delay har-
Vesting conditions In some localities.
