CHICAGO, Jan. Notwithstanding
wheat ranged higher than last mig MT
close most of the morning. It was
lower early and again, by noon, mao
lost all of the gain that had been
made during the earlier hours, OF trad
ing. Speculative interests is not as
keen this level, the trade generally
being cautious on the long side be
cause of the wide publicity wnicn is
being given to peace propaganda. on
the other hand. the demand Tor cash
wheat shows little abatement, yesterr-
days business being estimated by prl'
vate sources as we'll in excess OF pup.
lie expectation of a return to colo
weather in the southwest where the
crop is without adequate protection.
Importing countries are believed 10
own the bulk of our visible supply, and
domestic milling demand will readily
absorb the invisible. Eventually, wheat
will be very scarce and high in price.
Corn-Corn has followed today the
course of wheat, but what little news
has been obtainable is bullish. Re
cent heavy country sales have been
absorbed by export interests, and TO-
day marked falling of in country OF
ferings is reported. Foreign news, es-
pecially that from importing countries
and the Argentine, is bullish. The
market appears to 6fer exceptional
opportunities but prevailing prices at
this season Of the year do not seem to
warrant investment buying except on
sharp declines.
Oats-Although cash sales OF oats
to the seaboard have been enormous
the market fails to show commensu-
rate strength, being almost entirely
ruled iby the course of other grains.
While the action Of oats Is not as sen
sational as that OF the other cereals,
there is every indication that the
worlds demand will become more
pronounced In this country andsresuit
in a gradual hardening Of values.
