Wheat--A temporary cessation Of ex-
port business in wheat has been taken
advantage Of by buyers to secure the
daily receipts at smaller premiums, the
Mol grades selling at u to 13 over

have had q good undertone, owing 10
buying by houses with seaboard con
nections. Spring wheat markets report
a rather brisk demand from all sources
Winnipeg messages refer to buying ny
France, Belgium, Italy and Spain. Export
clearances from the seaboard are on a
liberal scale a little over 100000 be-
ing shown in today's figures.
Corn-Movement of corn from the
country continues OF larger volume than
had been expected Despite this, however,
1t is to be noted that accumulations IN
Chicago decreased last week CONTRACT
grades have lost practically all of their
premium, selling today at from l 10 d
cents over September. This cash situa-
ton is the only weight upon the market.
The weather and the forecast for the
new crop not what is wanted. We be
lieve the market has discounted all facts
and theories which have been useu TOT
lower prices, but, beyond the matter OF
too much rain and insufficient warmth,
there is nothing disturbing in the new
crop situation. Tomorrow's market Is
likely to prove of waiting sort; ae-
count of the crop report which will be

Oats-The volume of receipts from the
country is a weight upon the oat mar
ket. Cash houses were sellers OF Deem

rHE WEEKS CROP SUMMARY.

There were local rains in nearly all
sections Of the state during the first
part OF the week, which put many fields
ia good shape for blowing and with the
prevailing cool weather much work was
done.
sllo filling at the present time is also
occupying the attention OF the farmer
70 some extent.
Notwithstanding the fact that corn on
sandy and clay soils in some sections OF
the state Is badly firing, generally the
outlook yet rs very promising for
The extreme north and west sections
OF the state show the poorest conditions
None OF the corn VIII mature under
three weeks and IL will take some Of IL
six weeks more.
The yield and quality OF the spring
wheat are below the average.
Planting Of winter wheat Will begin
about Sept. 20 in the northern part Of
the state.
oats Yield we're much better than was
expected IN most sections. The early
sowu oats are very heavy and the re-
verse is true Of those sown late.
The barley crop came up TO all eX-
pecthtious In all sections. except in the
extreme northeast corner Of the state.
Glover seed average Is somewhat larger
than last year, but the yield will be very
spotted.
Rust has struck some OF the early to-
bacco and the farmers are cutting It
green.
The melon sections IN the southern part
OF the state have about completed ship
ment IL was one OF the best crops ever
produced. according to reports from
growers.
Practically all the well-cared-for orch
ards have bumper crops this year This
Is true especially FOR peaches where many
young trees came Into full bearing this
year
The cool weather has kept truck crops
on the market later this year than usual.
The quality Is very good. however.
Some hog cholera Is reported In the
eastern part Of the state, a disease SINH
lar 20 anthrox IS attacking cattle In a few
OF the southern counties.
According 10 reports, farm labor is
plentiful, but at very high prices.

We have had an exhibition today of
what crystaliized public sentiment can
do in a speculative market. Activity
was not pronounced. though the volume
early was far larger than We had been
accustomed to handle for some time.
The public apparently recognize that
our fundamental conditions have i'm
proved that where imitation exists cor
rection has been brought about.
They realize that security prices have
discounted lot of commercial defatlon,
which has not as yet, but will later, de-
velop.
The Mexican situation, a sore spot for
years, looks like clearing up through the
election of their new president.
The action Of Mexican Petroleum di-
rectors in increasing the dividend Is tes-
tfmony of their belief in the future.
Our crop situation has developed to the
roint where we can figure an approximate
value.
lne future is decidedly more promising
in the financial and commercial lines
We are building securely, laying the
foundation for big, bread market later
on meanwhile do not despise profits.
There is no immediate danger Of the
market running away.
Scattered profit taking developed In
the last hour. This was particularly no.
ticeable in the railroads.

On Commission ROIC

The revival Of an active tone In the
produce market. which commission men
have predicted would come, has not yet
made its appearance and I'm fact the tone
OF the market yesterday and today Is
weaker than u has been for the paef
month.
a part Of this is due. Of course. 10 the
holiday just passed and TO the state fair
now In progress, but not all OF IL can be
attributed 10 th0se causes.
The principal cause Of the slump Is the
ever decreasing supply Of produce.
For the past two weeks commission
houses have been waiting on a large
shipment OF Southern Indiana peaches,
but they are yet TO arrive, and some I'M
favorable reports have been received from
the orchard sections Of the southern
counties.
The change for higher prices In the
potato market has not yet arrived but
crop reports stating that potatoes In
some sections OF the state have been at
tackled by the wilt and rot will, no doubt
snow some influence ON the market with
In the next week.
Among the produce that on account OF
the closing OF the season is bringing
about what can be gotten, are some
selling at $1.50QlS.50. according to the
quality and the demands
One exception to this Is some good
