and were primarily the result OF a
realization OF a worlds shortage OF
wheat and correspondingly high prem
iums for the cash article. Broomhall
finally admits that Canada cannot be
depended upon for much good wheat,
and local experts who are In the wheat
fields in that country send the most
sensational reports since damage
started. Without regard to the adj
vancing prices, millers and exporters
are buying all the available wheat. A
serious break under these circumstan-
ces seems highly improbable.
Corn-Corn scored further advance,
as the result OF the return of hot
weather and on account of B. w.
Shows estimate of a crop Of little
over two billion, 500 million bushels.
Should husking returns prove these
figures correct, there will be little
hope of lower prices in corn during
the coming year. Cash demand is
good and while there will probably be
la moderate after-harvest movement,
the volume of such movement will
probably be disappointing because
where old corn is held in reserve, crop
prospects are for the most part poor.
Oats-Followed other grains but
showed also some independent
strength because Of the excellent cash
demand. The basis for cash oats in
the sample market gradually improves.
Canadian reports indicate that the
crop has Keen seriously hurt and on
that account, We are likely to enjoy
1H>l a better export demand than we
have had for United States export
oats for the last few years.
