CHICAGO, Sept. 22.-Wheat-The
tone of the wheat market today was
reversed from that OF the recent
week. and, although there was little
change in TIE news, early pressure
was conspicuous by its absence. Cash
demand was also said to be some
what improved and premiums to the
country stations OF the southwest
were reported as being the highest
in the crop. Another factor In the
strength was clearing weather in the
Argentine and reports that rain had
been insufficient. On account OF the
late seeding, the Modern Miller ex-
presses the belief that the acreage
in winter wheat will be short. There
is nothing in the outlook to sell
wheat on, and the only breaks that
may be reasonably expected this year
will be on the technical speculative
situation.
Corn-While local observers con-
slider the strength early in corn to-
day borrowed entirely from wheat,
there was on the other hand a good
volume of buying by traders who
have just began to realize the serious
ness OF the recent freezing in scat
tered sections throughout the corn
belt. The demand for corn for ex-
port at this level of values, and the
present outlook for the growing crop
favors the bull.
Oats-Brokers that usually act for
hrvxvA ~
both December and May oats early to-
day. and, the market thereafter ruled
strong in sympathy with wheat
Speculative interest is light and on
account OF heavy accumulation, the
trade is disposed to be bearish. On
breaks from this level, we would pre-
fer the buying side. The prospective
scarcity OF food stuffs will be bull
factor in oats little later.
