Corn scored a sensational drop of
10 cents in Chicago this week on the
strength of an announcement that
wheat would be imported from Can
ada. But wheat is not corn. And as
long as hogs sell for s21 and above
corn must remain high. Besides it is
too early in the season to make any
sort OF forecast on the prospects for a
crop this year. There can be little
hope of a permanent decline in corn
prices until another crop be reason
ably assured. High priced hogs make
high priced corn and vice versa. Hogs
must remain high until the extraordi-
nary demands of Europe shall be sup
piled or the country shall harvest an
. other corn crop and that a big one.
