STRENGTH IN CORN
FEATURE OF GRAINS

CHICAGO, March Corn has aver
aged higher in value this week, chiefly
owing to rough weather and to pros
poets that the hog price minimum would
not be abandoned until ~exlgencies in
volved were otherwise adequately met.
Compared with a week ago corn quota
tons this morning varied from 2 cents
off to an advance Of 2%, oats ranged
from &c decline to nc gain, and pro-
vision from $3.50 decline to a rise OF &c,
As corn market factors, both the ad-
verse weather and the hog price min
imum were generally dealt with on the
basis that a big supply of hogs still
remained on farms, and hat primarily
the increase or decrease of feeding de-
mand was the determining point to be
considered.
Oats were steadied by a decrease al
the visible supply total.
In provisions the effect Of big ex-
ports had apparently been discounted.

SINNERS Buying Little.

NConditions with the manufacturers

and thus there is small incentive Tor
SINNERS buying raw material. From
some of the Southern districts came
adyices telling of further curtailment OF
running time because of little busl-
ness coming to hand. There may not
be any concerted effort on the part
of the spinners to force the price OF
cotton lower, but certainly they are
doing nothing to help sustain it. Just
when there will be any pronounced
change in their attitude time alone can
tell. They seem assured of an album
liant supply of material for an indeti-
rite period and apparently do not yet
take much stock in the South's effort
TO cut it's acreage and thus help slim.
Mate prices for the unsold portion OF
the old crop as well as providing

Sales Of the actual were small in all
centers and consisted largely of special

Improvement was reported from Liver

hut this was not important enough to
occasion any reflection In local de-
mand. One thing that discouraged
hullish sentiment was that ocean
freight room was scarce and for i'm

thus n~eutralizing the benefits expected
from the lower rates. Offerings OF

Well merIted in every way:
at may be rainy at the Memphis
Country club, but the atmosphere In
the gallery 10 serene. There Is not a
spark OF envy and not a bit OF resent
fulness among the women golfers at the
Southern tournament, that a little red;
headed Atlanta GIRL has come over and
walked away with ali her opponents.
The players she has defeated have been
what the proletarlat call real sports.
| think Memphis 10 Just as enthusiastic
about AIexa Stirling as Atlanta Is. For,
after all, she Is a Southern woman and
can retain her national championship
any day In the week.
Dear Slr-Is Bill Thweatt going to

every series, the league will soon find
Itself overwhelmed with funds.
John Henry Robinson, former star
| left handler OF the Little Rock club, Is
having a hard time getting started this
| year. The RUDE is n great pitcher and
is undoubtedly of major caliber and
would be up there today except for
the fact that he didn't have enough
pep to suit the big time bosses.
Sam Wick, former Memphis fly. chaser,
