Reports of insect injury to growing
wheat. especially in Missouri, were said
to be the worst for many years. Advices
from Kansas, Illinois. Indiana and OHIO
all indicated that the harvest prospect or
1915 had been seriously lowered and there
was much talk that the total harm might
be represented by cut of fully lO0,0OoO
bushels from the yield suggested by the
gov eminent figures Of month ago.
Jumps in value, which began almost as
soon as the session was fairly under way,
showed the greatest vigor In the last
three-quarters OF the final hour.
Big export clearancev and a decided
falling off in the domestic visible supply
total tended to add to bullish sentiment
regarding wheat. In consequence some
OF the largest houses in the trade were
active buyers at around the topmost
