CHICAGO, July 6.-Wheat-F'avor-
able weather for harvest and bearish
threshing returns from the southwest
gave wheat a heavy tone during the
forenoon. Shorts were covered on
yesterdays bulge. There was some
liquidation by commission houses.
Some export business in new wheat
was reported worked yesterday and
there were bids in this market today,
but brokers claimed prices were out
of line. Temperatures in the north
west are high and apprehension has
been expressed by interests there
that the plant has been damaged. The
forecast is for cooler weather, how
ever. Offerings OF new wheat are
unusually light and milling interests
are making more inquiries. Reports
that considerable flour has been work
ed lately also helped the market.
Corn-Corn was steady most OF the
session up to midday. The demand
for cash corn holds the current deliv-
cry strong. Export demand was not
SO brisk today but towards midday
shipping, interests showed signs CT
bein short and bid the market up to
the widest premium this season. The
prospect is that the demand will take
all the corn that is likely to be avail
able until after. the rush Of mid-sum-
mer work is over.
Oats-Oats were dull and steady.
Most Of the trading, however. was at
moderate concessions from last
nights closing. Weather over the
greater part OF the oats belt Is regard
ed as unfavorable for filing, as
temperatures are high and the wealth
er generally clear.
Iowa weather. and crop report week
ly says seven days of highest temper
atures since the summer of 1914. Con-
dition excellent for growth OF corn
and killing weeds, only q few scatter
cd showers, except some heavy in
central regions at close. Corn made
rapid growth and much Is nearly up
TO average normal. Many fields laid
by and particularly all clean. Glover
hay harvest in progress. Timothey in
bloom.
