ALL CEREALS IN DEMAND


Omaha, April 10. 1917.
The cash grain situation was very bullish
again today and receipts OF all grains con-
tinued light
The demand, however, was equally as
strong as on the previous day and tho
bulk Of the offering were disposed Of at
an early hour
Wheat led in the advance with range
OF IOc to higher and the advance in
wheat was followed by comparatively heavy
gains in both the corn and oats markets.
corn being quoted from to &c higher,
while oats sold from to lhc higher.
The advance in today's cash market es-
tablished new record prices on all cereals,
wheat reaching the $40 mark, while corn
sold up to {l.64 and oats sold as high as
73c.

In the corn market there was keen In
qury for the white variety and this article
sold at premium prices. No. white being
quoted at $l,54,
The better grades Of yellow corn ranged
in price from 1851 Gle, while the same
grades OF mixed ruled around s1.47h 0l.49.
There was an active trade in oats and
this cereal was in good demand, the No.
white being quoted at 72c and the stand
ard at 15c.
The trade in rye and barley was quiet
on account OF light receipts and these
markets were quoted firm.

Urgent demand from exporters and mlllers
was largely responsible. together with the
fact that scarcity OF immediate supplies
had hoisted No red wheat at st. Louis
to within &c OF 50 bushel, Corn finished
2A04ac up, oats NC off TO iidAc ad-
vance. and provisions unchanged to iOc
higher.
To great degree hopes vanished that
important quick relief was to be had
through large shipments Of what from
Canada. One of the difficulties Of getting
supplies from Canada was said TO be a rail-
way embargo against loading for the
United States any cars except those owned
on this side OF the border. Bullsh senu-
ment was sharply stimulated also by
Washington report that the shortage In the
domestic winter crop was fully as extern
sive as preliminary estimates mad indicated.
Entente government interests were said
to have been big buyers OF the September
delivery Of wheat. while at the same time
persistenty selling July. Cash houses were
the chief purchasers OF May and there were
signs that a majority of May longs would
insist on deliveries OF actual wheat.
New high records were scored In corn
chiefly as a result of wheat strength. Gains
in some cases exceeded 5h cents. Oats
sympathIzed with the upturns in other
realize profits. Besides. crop reports were
very favorable, and new acreage was said
to be decidedly enlarged.
Provisions mounted with grain. Compare
tive weakness in the hog market was ig-
nored.

over yesterdays receipts. So far this week
supplies have been ai,ei7 head, as against

forenoon. but when everything was finally
yardcd the market became fairly active at
prices that were as a general thing fully
steady. and In the case OF few Of the
