AFTERNOON GRAIN LETTER.

Chicago. Feb. 17.-Talk of small
Chicago corn stocks and need OF
Canada for / to 2 million seed oats
helped the early upturn. The seed
oats required by Canada look incon-
sequential. Cash corn is 2 to cents
up. Cash demand remains poor. A
number of locals are off the bull side
as they figure the advance is liberal
Sentiment favors dip purchases and
news remains long distance bearish.
The Redfield speech suggests lower
costs in all lines. Chicago has practi-
cally no corn to sell ahead. Argentina
corn surplus of 2JO,OO0,OOO old and
new will finally develop into prob
lem. A late dip might discount the
idea of Monday bulge and Tuesday
break. Argentina strike news is mix
ed. Packing house employees secure
an advance of 10 per cent dating from
November 10, 1918. This illustrates
the need of cheap living.
