CHICAGO, March 31.-Wheat-
Wheat advanced into new high
ground early. but the upturn was
checked by better reports from
southern winter wheat states. Some
Of which were Of very doubtful orr
gin. There appeared, however. on
the down turn a good demand and
prices quickly rallied around last
nights figures. A local statistician
who is usually very reliable, reports
that wheat statistics as collected by
him from southwestern territory Is
70 percent as compared with 8H7 in
December and 81.7 in March. The
amount plowed up is about Ill per-
cent and with poor acreage of spring
wheat will result in not very promis-
ing crops for maturity. Conflicting
crop reports may be expected from
now on, but tho prospects for moth
ing better than an average crop Of
winter or spring wheat can be ex-
pected. A sustained demand from
importing countries Is probable.

the season OF the year when stocks
! in sight are always large and always
we'll advertised as bear Influences.
The buying side on the breaks has
proven profitable and will continue
to be so.
Oats-Oats did not fully follow the
| advance in other grains early, but
were steady at the declines. Report
Of sales Of Canadian oats to tho sea-
board was the principal bear factor.
Modern Miller says: The rains in
| the southwest and middle west are
showing up the weakness Of the win
ter wheat prospects,. Poor seed and
poor ground last fall and winter
killing. There is no possibility Of
duplicating the past two years yield
and considering the shortened acre
age three quarter crop will be high.
The yield ts promising in parts Of
Kansas. Not many reports from
states confirm winter damage.
