CHICAGO, February 2G.-Prospects
that the government report on farm
reserves of corn would be bullish
tended today to strengthen the corn
market, especially deferred options.
Opening prices. which ranged from
1.26A to 1.25a and July 1929 to
1928, was followed by continued firm
ness in the late deliveries and by rel
ative weakness in nearer months.
Slightly improved domestic shipping
demand gave little f1rmness to oats.
After opening unchanged to II high
er, with May 59T to so. the market
continued to harden.
Weakness in the hog market had a
depressing effect on provisions. Buy
