CHICAGO, Nov. .-Wheat-Wheat
rallied rather easily with less selling
pressure and with continued good
demand for cash wheat. Premiums at
Minneapolis were slightly less, COM
pared with December and at Duluth
unchanged. Kansas reported brisk
demand for cash. While the movement
has fallen off in the northwest, re-
ceipts for the week have been quite
liberal. Primary points have 19,67S,-
600 for the week or about four million
bushels more than the corresponding
week last year. Strength abroad and
reports Of the increasing scarcity Of
spot wheat in Liverpool had much to
do with today's advance. Unless cash
conditions become much weaker, de-
clines will be slight and only temper
airy.
Corn-Corn was active and ruled
higher throughout the day. Closing
prices were at about the top. AL
though considerable amount OF
profit taking OF long corn resulted. the
trend of the market Is in a bullish
temper, and any news on that side is
given full credence. The statement
by the federal government in connec-
ton with the government report last
Monday, regarding the quality of this
crop, failed to attract much attention
until late yesterday.
Oats-Oats were higher with other
grains. Cash demand was reported
slower Primary receipts for the
week totaled 10,473, 900 against only
5.926.000 bushels last year. Some ac-
emulation is taking place and unless
there is some falling off in the move
ment, there Is nothing particularly
bullish in the situation.
Provisions-Proyisio ruled high
er with shorts free buyers, especially
for lard. Most OF the buying was
credited to large short No doubt.
the light weight of present receipts OF
hogs had something to do with the up
ward trend Of the market.
