Cereals
Whcat--Prfces in the market yesterday
firm There was littlc pressure to sell and
the movement was light md showed fall
Ing off for the week Of l,sco 200 bushels
at the leading primary points. Exports
were somewhat smaller. and 1t was evident
the istrbution OF what was being inter
fered with by unfavorable traffic condi-
tlons. The attitude of farmers in regard to
labor and high prices for other commo
ditics was expected TO have some bearing
on tho situation during the coming soason
as 1t was feared tho acreage In spring
wheat viii be reduced probably in proper
tion to the loss in winter wheat acreage
and that next seasons crop may be a small
one. unless weather conditions prove
pecIaiy favorable.
Corn--The market was firm throughout
closing out OF the January position in
Chicago: This month advanced cents
per bushel to s1.51, and closed strong at
the top. There was II excitement in
connection with the final dealings, how
ever. and adviccs from the West said that
cash houses had about 600 0000 bushels
which they were willing 70 sell at the top
price. Receipts were again moderate and
there was nothing in the advlces from the
interior TO indicate any material increase
in the near future, as the car situation was
still very unfavorable. The movement to
the seaboard was atii being interrupted by
the railroad crbargoes md some thought
that this might have dlrecC bearing on
the interior cash situation.
