exception to the general tendency of
lower commodity prices until Russia
resumes the expectation of 100000
900 bushels, Perhaps the fall In farm
prices has been overdone but the far
mcr will be unable TO dictate world

the inability of the needy nations to

except possibly wheat are becoming a
thing of the past"
Wheat Is Too Low.
Chcago--It is conceded that wheat
Is selling below cost of production in
the United States and on that account
It is not expected that farmers will
market their grain at present prices.
There was no over production of
wheat in this country this year. in
fact, the official government figures
suggest only 100000 compared
with a41.OOO,OO0 last year. Our eX-
port cloarances have been unusually
large so far, namely 145.oo0, 600 BUSH

is estimated at 100000 bushels
nearly half OF which has gone.
Chicago Summary.
A more bullish feeling prevailed in
all grains and with lcssened selling
pressure prices advanced readily and
closed about the top of Monday. The
reported strike of wheat producers in
the southwest and a misconstruction
placed on the Indiana report TO mar
