CHICAGO, April -Wheat-The
general feeling in wheat continued
bear1sh this morning and was made
more SO by warmer and more season
able weather and discouraging cables.
The market, however, quickly became
oversold and by midday the market
had largely recovered its early losses
and the May delivery was quoted at
about 2 cents above Saturdays clos
ing figures, while the less active
months were up about a cent to a
cent and half. The real cause Of
the advance was the oversold condi-
ton, but incidentally there was crop
damage reports of every variety
which are current this season of the
year. Stocks are decreasing and inn
proving cash demands. Congestion in
the May delivery is marked and as
farm work becomes more general
there will be less pressure from cash
wheat.
Corn-Like wheat, corn recovered
quickly from an early break and at
noon was selling little better than
Saturdays close. The feeling locally
is bearish. but operators here are
lacking courage, except when the
market is weak. The feed value Of
corn, in terms of live stock prices,
the constant export demands. when
ever the market is depressed and the
uncertainty of the season and the
quality of seed are bullish factors not
to be ignored.
Oats-Oats have attracted but little
attention in speculative way and
there was nothing of interest In to-
days trading. Trade was mostly
local and the trend of prices followed
the action of other grains. The sea-
son is late and the crop prospects
very uncertain. This, however, is
Offset by reports from all sections of
seeding Of oats in abandoned wheat
acreage.
