cause Of Hog Weakness. -

Chicago, June 30.-pecidod upturns
in the price Of corn resulted today
from scarcity OF offerings. Attention
centered largely on the fact that stocks
in store were meager and that the
movement OF new wheat threatened to
retsrd the handling of other grains.
Besides the outlook for new crop was
reported as only fair. Opening prices
which ranged from q cent off to u

Record Price For Hay.

Chicago. June 30.-Only the fact that
mcmbers Of the hay trade ha<c become
reconcilcd to n 2-cent n pound level Of
prices for prairie hny accounts for lack
or interest In the sale OF early offerings
Of new crop wild forage, at $40 q ton,
says a Kansas City hay report. Nex-
ertheless the sale Of new hay of the
wild variety ut $40 a ton established a
mark which conservative trade inter-
ests consider remarkable. The early
offerings Of new hay have never sold
above SIC a ton. but the hay trade. as
other markets for agricultural COM
modities. Is going thru a history maxi
ing period.
A year ago the first consignment Of
new prairie hay in the southwest re-
ceived about three weeks later than the
initial offerings OF the present season,
sold at SIS ton, paid for choice car
Of upland. The first car received the
past week sold at S35 n ton. tho the
hay graded No. 2. And with the ar
rival Of choice car, keen competition
brought successful bid price Of 2
cents pound. Old prairie hay has
reached a record level of S43 a ton. paid
some weeks ago. tho 1t is not probable
that this price will be exceeded for the
present. .a.,s
In connection with the sale Of new
prairie at $40 q ton, what is even more
interesting than the unprecedented
price paid is the fact that the forage
was shipped from Texas. In 1918, just
at this time, the cattlemen Of the Lone
Star state were eagerly seeking wild
hay. which later in the season aiSS.@ss! :

Views of y<market Interests re-
garding the future price trend on prai-
rie vary little. Briefly, dealers who are
in close touch with the situation de-
clare that no large supply of prairie
would be required to force a decline to
a level just half that prevailing at the
present time. Current offerings of old
crop prairie are extremely light, far in
sufficient to meet even the scant re-
quirements of local feeders. Stock
