CHICAGO. July Observation-Disclosures
opened higher on general heavy buy
ing on reports from the northwest. A
few minutes after the opening the
highest point OF the day was touched.
After the opening furry there was
heavy selling for profits and sharp
break occurred. but offerings on the
break were we'll absorbed. Most con-
sentative interests agree that damage
has been done the wheat in the north
west and 1t is not out of all danger
iyet. The prospects of our raising lit
tie more wheat than Is needed for con-
sumption and seeding and the con-
slant possibility OF damage to wheat
In the northwest on both sides OF the
international line make good buying
on all breaks.
Corn-Extreme heat and dry wealth
or over the west with no rain report
ed over night and no promises of rain
brought considerable buying orders In
the corn pit early and no liability OF
much lower prices as long as the hot
weather continues. On the early bulge
there was plenty Of profit taking by
the long interest. Corn Is a weather
map and impossible to forecast.
Oats-Oats sympathized with other
grains largely. Buying by shorts
was In evidence at the opening. Elk
port business was done but not re-
ported in bushels. The prospects gen.
orally for oats are good and buying
should be confined to good breaks.
Clearance and foreign demands are
favorable for the holders.
