NOON GRAIN LETTER

The winter wheat report VI today al
6S.4 exceeds all history, and suggests
that the final winter wheat crop may
not run more than 10000, 600 to AGO. =
100000. It entirely confirms the de-
tailed report of our Mr. Wild on Ne
5raska and Kansas published last Mon
day. Smallest winter wheat crop in
sixteen years was the $50. 600, 900 OF
1904. The smallest in the last six years
is the 400.00o,0o0 in 1912 Reports from
the southwest today are verifying the
exceedingly low conditions Of winter
wheat as previously reported from all
sources The grains will evidently run
on into the next week a break pur-
chase.

Oats Gain About Half That Scored

Chicago, April 7.-Wheat prices
jumped skyward today on receipt Of
news that the government crop report
showed the condition OF domestic win
ter crop was far worse than even the
most huIlish forecasts had implied. Be
fore the government report was at
hand the market had dropped on re-
ports of German sea raiders off Nam
tuCket and of the Virginia Capes and
because vessels outgoing had been or
dered 10 return to port, Excited trad
ing carried the market almost vertical
~ upward to ST. for May wheat from
S2047s, an ascent in a few minutes OF
more than cents. Initial prices, which
We're irregular varying from "A cent
up TO Is cents up, with May at s2.osI2
10 S2.07I2 and July at S1.15 TO sl.,5 Z,
were followed by sharp declines all
around and then d nearly unparalleled
general advance.
Within an hour astonishing further
advances had been made carrying
prices for wheat soaring as much as
1874 cents above Thursday closing fig
ures. with the chief rise in the Sep
TENDER option which touched LIS, with
July at SI.SS and May at s214A. At
the same instant prices were as much
apart as two cents in the same OPP
ton.
With but one exception the crop con-
dit!on was the lowest ever shown in
the United States at any season of the
year. Important holders nevertheless
seized the opportunity to realize and
the late dealings as q rule failed to
maintain top level prices, altho July
finished at the acme ~ the day. 1ss
TO 1.SS5s. The close was wild at 6
cents to 13% cents net advance with
the market as a whole with May at
212 10 2"14A and September at 1.74k
to lis.
Corn.
Corn scared with wheat The vol
ume Of business was immense. The
advances tho were not so radical as
in wheat, being'up about cents when
wheat was up IA cents.
Oats
Oats reflected only cornparativeiv
the higher prices for other cereals. The
extreme gains were about half as much
as in corn.
Provisions.
Provisions mounted with grain. The
chief rise was in lard. 40 to SO cents.
