Chicago, Oct. 25.-Corn-Bad wealth

chases against sales OF cash corn, the

Chicago. Oct. 25.-F'resh upturns in
the prices of corn resulted today from
scarcity OF offerings and rom efforts OF
shorts to take further risks. There
was no sign of any hurry on the part
of farmers TO sell. Pit traders seemed
disposed to await hedging pressure be-
fore becoming aggressive on the bear
side. Opening quotations, which
ranged from : cent off TO !. cent add
vance, with December at 116As to lit
and May at 1.llA to liz, were followed
by material gains all around.
Unsettled weather and brisk demand
from industries led afterward to sharp,
additional gains. The close was strong

1.20 for December and 1854 to 1.1S7s
for May.
Oats.
Persistent acquisition of oats for
eastern accounts forced the oats mar
ket up with corn.
Provisions.
FirmnesS in the price of hogs gave
strength to provisions. The bullish &C
ton OF grain also contributed to the
general advance.

HOG Decline Checked.

Temporarily al least, the decline in
hog prices has been checked, altho Chi
cago figures are higher than in the
east. which has tendency 10 curtail
the shipping demand.
Whatever becomes the trend nf VAL
ues from now on, II Is hoped that the
fluctuations will be less severe than
they have been for the past few weeks.
More stable markets will do much
TO encourage hog production, while
sharp declines or advances are in
furious to the producer ard keep him
up in the air"
The trade is glad 10 see little i'm
provement in the hog prices <at this
tine. because it realizes that the pru-
Queer needs some encouragement.
There are not many old hogs left
in the country, but well posted traders
who have visited different sections
claim that there is an abundance Of
young stock which is doing well,
A little announcement will cause the
producers to keep back a good share
Of this young stuff. and by holding It
back there will be more pounds of pork
later.
With a big need for pork products
the future market should remain on a
profitable basis, for feed is plentiful
in most section of the country.
The food shortage. is still serious
and increased production is sought by
the government, but at this time the
producers, are calling for more exact
evidence that nothing will be done to
put prices on an Improbable basis, and
it seems as tho the food administra-
ton should issue more definite state
Tient iiTTTiIisc;ase:y.
However. many hog raisers have con-
fidence in the future market and are
going along figuring that the supply
and demand viii take care Of the stu.
alton as of old. -.
Others, who were alarmed short
time back. have Gained down to some
extent and 1t is expected that they
will speed up production along with
the less timid producers.-Droyers
