Chicago, Sept. 29.-Moderate buy
ing for the seaboard sufficed to give an
upturn to. the wheat market today

helped by strength which developed
in coarse grain. First prices. un-
changed to one cent lower, with De-
cember 1922 ID to 1928 and March
$2.16, were followed by a decided gain
all orund.
Frost in the west and northwest last
night, together with predictions that
the frost area would extend. eastward
to Chicago tonight, brought about. a
substantial advance in the corn mar
ket. After opening Is off to "a
higher, with December at IS IL to
&c, a slight sag took place, but then
prices went sharply upgrade.
Oats paralleled the action of corn,
starting Ia to 1-2 cent higher, De-
cember IS Ia to SIS 3-8 and scoring
further gains later.
Weakness in the hog market had a
depressing effect on provisions.
Gossip Of a probable scarcity OF
wheat at domestic milling points be:
tween now and next June tended
somewhat to stimulate demand. The
close was strong 1 IA to 3 cents net
higher with December 2.24 1-2 tc

Longs freely supplied the needs Of
September shorts. Prices closed firm
