Long Commission co. Grain Letter

Long Commission Co. Grain Letter.
CHICAGO, Aug. 9.-Wheat-An adj
mission by the crop reporting bureau
of the department of agriculture, the
most conservative organ known to
the trade, that the crop prospects for
this year indicates only about as
much wheat as is yearly consumed in
this country, naturally has had a
tremendously bullish effect on the
futures market. Broomhall admits
that the freight situation is such that
North America will be called upon to
supply the bulk of Europe's needs.
Under the circumstances it therefore
seems necessary only to operate most
conservatively under present worlds
conditions. Buying should be con-
fined to setbacks, and orders held to
the minimum of the traders financial
ability.
Corn-The governments figures on
corn, showing serious damage during
July. has upset bearish calculations
and shorts are getting little satisfac-
ton out of the action of the market.
Iowa and northwestern states which
last year raised little corn, have a
good prospect but, throughout most
of the belt, the outlook is fair to poor.
AS is the case in wheat, buyers
should avoid the long side on bulges,
as prices are at an unprecedented
level for this time Of the year.
Oats-Oats sympathized with other
grains. The crop this year and the
carry-over from last year are suf-
ficient for ordinary needs, but the
price is relatively low and many
bulls, who are afraid of other cereals
at prevailing levels, are disposed to
invest in oats on account of price and
the expectation that they will sympa-
thize with the general advance in
the level of grain values.
