war on the side of the allies, gave g.
temporarily easier tone to the mar
ket. This was quickly offset by
heavy purchases for foreign account,
and reports that export business was
heavier than anticipated and that
there was further demand In the mar
ct Argentine cables were bullish,
and the wheat markets in that coun-
try opened higher because rains
failed to materialize in the north.
very dry weather is affecting the
crop adversely. While good rains
have fallen in large portion of the
domestic wheat territory. large and
important areas in the southwest are
still too dry and inability to plow
on that account may reduce the acre
age. Wheat bought on breaks
should ultimately prove very profit
able. The surplus in this country
for export and carry-over for the next
nine months is no more than should
ordinarily be carried over on July l.
Corn-Further sales for export and
renewed bids in the market today
in corn and their buying was factor
in holding the market steady at a
moderate advance Cash corn was
also in good demand and early quota
lions were one cent higher. Septem-
Der delivery acts tight and is sup
porting factor.
iOats-Oats sympathized with 9TH,
err grains in a moderate way, al
though speculative interest was not
large. A short interest Of consider
able size exists and, should wheat
continue its upward course, bulge
in oats will be likely.
