largely to a general desire to accumu-
late reserve before the sharp decrease

with field work. The close was unset
tied. March $1.27ss and May ,$1.2s =

latest figures.
Active commission house buying ad-
vanced oats to new high price levels
for the season. Opening figures which
varied from the same as Saturdays
close to half down with Nay Ssh q n
were followed by rapid upturn.
Higher quotations on hogs gave
strength to provisions. Very little wal
for sale until q good advance had been
established.
