~ bringing Austria Hungary more

the expulsion from Europe Of the OF

Such program, is pointed out, would
effectually break UP the greater Ger

Austria and Bulgaria, would further en-
large this barrier by restoring to Rou-

would dismember the then detached

ating the Armenians and Syrians and

Lannon'S Grain Letter.

2O3 Masonic Temple. Phone 1881
Chicago, May 22.-Wheat-Trade in
wheat is SO radical that market CON-
ment is superfluous. The influences
bearing on the market are difficult to
weigh. Cash wheat, of course, is in
good demand, but the consumptive de-
n1and for -four IS generally light, due
to extraordinary laying in Of supplies
during the last few months. Crop re-
ports are generally more favorable,
weather conditions being ideal for the
growing grain. The effort to replace
shipments Of domestic wheat by i'm
ports from Australia, while still in the
experimental stage, will no doubt tend
to prevent violent advances In prices.
The hope of the entire world is now
centered in the spring wheat territory
! of the United States and Canada.
Corn-While wheat and oats were
losing a little ground, corn made a
moderate advance. The strength Is at
tributable entirely to the cash demand
and the wide premiums that are be-
ing paid for the spot article. A local
statistician estimates the increased
acreage in the seven surplus states at
100000 acres, or 20 per cent as COM
pared with last year. While this acre
age will have no direct bearing on the
course Of the active deliveries, it will
undoubtedly have a bearish effect so
long as the crop is progressing so sat
isfactorily.
Oats-The same authority quoted

| Chicago. May c2.-Scarcity Of good
grades tended to bring about a mod
crate advance today in hog prices. The
| advance was cents.
Eleven markets received 111,100 hogs
Monday, or 600 less than last-Monday
1880 less than a year ago and 20, 700
less than two years ago. Although To-
cal arrivals We're of good volume the
receipts elsewhere were comparatively
moderate Total for 1917 to date 1861
900, or 1.2S7.000 more than the same
period 1916, and $4,000 more than cor
responding time 1915.
Cattle.
Sellers Of cattle We're at a disad-
weather.
Quality here ran pretty much as it
has in weeks past, the big end of the
crop being off a minimum of corn. but
as regards volume of supplies it was
patent monday that the corn planting
rush is not stopping great many feed
ers from cashing in. Wide margins
over first cost are the inducements
bringing out the runs, but the fact that
general prices were lower today and
that declines fell most heavy upon the
better quality steers in nowise indicat-
ed that the trade is getting too many
OF them to fill demands.
Liberal cattle receipts are expected
next week. Packers are bidding for
run and the cattle are for sale. Killers
are paying s7.5o6s.5o for ornery little
500 fI163 pound steers t.:a: had nc
ar.-a and a
dragnet is being run through the brush
to satisfy an unprecedented demand.
Frresca: prices arc rafting Young car
tie of good quality and insuring beef
scarcity for years TO come.
Market conditions furnish breeders
with assurance OF good prices for every
calf they can raise. Demand for stock
cows in the west is healthy, but the
commercial breeding industry is not de-
veloping in the corn belt, and it is a
safe prediction that feed lots east OF
the Missouri river will depend for all
time on breeding herds In the west for
replenishment.
There is no possibility that cattle
breeding will be overdona. tho day OF
excess beef production has passed.
Sheep.
Like cattle, sheep holders were han
dicapped by rains.
A short time ago traders IN the sheep
house voiced the opinion that the lamb
top would hit record before the end
OF the Colorado eeason, but now they
have changed their views.
They give as q reason the continued
advance In price Of aged and yearling
sheep. . class OF stock which Colorado
men have not been sending to market.
Another reason OF more Importance
Is the scarcity OF other lambs known
to be IN the feed lots and the certain
ty that rangers will come marketward
several weeks late.
Last week witnessed new high marks
for wooded and shorn lambs at 5000
and s1S.75, respectively.
Some look for little further advance
on woolskin, but others claim they will
go sharply higher because Of the wool
situation
Traders are Of one mind about clip
pers. for on this class they are pre-
dieting many new records.
Not only have local receipts OF sheep
and lambs been light for several weeks
but everywhere else In the west the
supply figures have gradually fallen
off
The consumer has an unusual buy
ing power and 80 far has shown no in
clination to back away from dressed
stock, altho It IL costing him more
than ever before.

Chicago, May 22.-Future delivery
trade in wheat today was reduced 70
scanty dealings In a single option
September No business was done in
the July delivery and it was said that
soon under existing arbitrary rules all
transactions whatever in contracts for
future delivery of wheat vera likely to
come to an automatic stop Accord
ing to some authorities the extreme
tension which has resulted in the pres
ent regulations regarding wheat should
relax after harvesting is well under
way, but other opinions today were
that the only buying Of new wheat this
year would be for actual users The
market, that is the September wheat
delivery, opened this morning 3 cents
higher. owing to absence Of offerings,
but afterward reacted ? cents, starting
at s2.13, and falling back to SILL.
Reports of plentiful moisture thru
out the entire domestic wheat region
exerted a bearish influence later, Sep
TENDER falling to s2.02 with sale here
and there OF July as low as 1927.
Weakness was added to by word of
increased shipments from Australia TO
the United States. The close was un-
settled, l to cents lower at $2.32 for
July and S2.05 for September.
AID CORN
Corn.
Corn prices bulged on account OF
general buying which developed when
the pit crowd saw that offerings were
meagre Cold weather and lack Of sun
shine We're bullish factor. After open
ing = and !. cents cee 70 Z and a
cents advance, the market scored mod
crate gains all around.
Estimates of enlarged increases OF
planted acreage in the seven surplus
producing states counted later as a
transient weight on prices. The close
was nervous, at IL and rs cents to
lA and Ia cents net decline.
Oats
Oats developed drmness in sympathy
with corn. Trading was light.
Provisions.
Scattered buying hardened pro-
visions. A steady tone IN the hog mar
ket put sellers at a disadvantage.
