CHICAGO, Dec. 24.-Wheat-High-
er cables together with reports Of
large additional sales Of domestic
wheat for export. which figures were
not given our, caused strong and high
market remained strong throughout
er opening. Despite the fact that
there were heavy realizing sales. the
larger part OF the session. North
west markets were strong with rs
and their receipts are falling on con-
siderably. A large proportion OF the
wheat in the northwest has been mar
keted- Spring wheat Will be cared
for not only by the miller but by the
exporters. We still feel that invest
ment holders should still hold their
lines for further advance In values.
Corn-Cash corn was drAgIy In
spite Of the advances In the futures
and corn early sold unchanged to I
cent or more lower at the tables.
Primary receipts show iArger totals
today than for some time This mar
ket is not yet getting her proper
ton Of corn receipts. In many sec
tons OF southern Illinois delay has

Provisions-Provisio appear to
be shaping themselves for higher
prices later, in spite Of the fact that
packers appear to be against any Ad-
vance, due no doubt to their desire
to secure supplies before any adj
vance in prices. The free selling Of
hogs last month and especially OF
young hogs should make provisions
higher in spring and summer.
