SHEPARD & CLICKS COTTON LETTER

NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 2l.-Ihe lower
range than expected of private bureau re-
ports on condition put the price of cotton
higher today. Too much rain in the belt
and prospects of still more to come were
IN additional sustaining Influence. There
was also more looking around in the spot
department although it can hardly be claimed
that any great Improvement in spot bHsi
ness is vet lit sight. To many traders
looks like higher market between now and
bureau day and to US this appears entirely
probable if the weather does not improve.

THOMSON, MKINNON CO. GRAIN
LETTER


CHICAGO, Aug. 27.-Wheat: 1t begins
to look as though the predicted liquidation
of farm holdings which was expected to be
enforced by the curtailment of loans would
not materiaize- This idea is gathered from
from all sections. This condition has
brought about relatively higher export bids,
with premiums for cash the highest on the
crop. This market gives evidence of selling
still higher.
Corn: Crop estimates and reduction in
number of farm animals remain the factors
which control sentiment in corn. Eastern
demand is so slow and industrial buyers
leisurcly that the premiums for the
cash are overlooked. There is said to be
an improved demand for old corn from the
south and inquiries for the new crop from
across the Canadian border. While admit
ting that the prc4ent crop outlook war
rants crop sufficiently large to supply all
needs, are of the idea that this theory
has become threadbare and that the mar
ket is shaping itself to recognize the small
amount of corn actually available for cur
rent uses and the prices which it is com
handing.
Oats: Southern demand for oats continues
ra ther brisk and there is said to be bet
ter feeling abroad, although no export bust
ness uncovered. Country holders are not
pressing their surplus for sale. The mar
ket, like corn, seems to have discounted the
bearish factors and is in a waiting attitude.
Provisions: The idea that surplus hogs
have been well marketed is being revived
in the provision list. 1t cannot be said that
cash trade is brisk. but there is a better
tone to the market

NEW YORK, Aug 27.-The cotton mar

points on higher Liverpool cables and private
crop reports, indca ting a greater falling off

Der to 667 right after the call or about

reau condition report of SO per cent of nor
mai, indicating a crop of II, $50, 600 bales,
put the cotton market strongly higher to-
day on the opening. Buying increased when
the weather map showed too much rain over
the belt and during the first hour of bust
ness advances were widened to 50 to ~
points. October rising to 27.24 and March
to 800. There was much covering by
shorts and a fairly large volume of fresh
buying for long account.
The weather forecast, calling for unset
tied to showery weather over practically
the entire belt, coupled with reports of more
inquiry in the spot department, increased
the steadiness of the market Buying in
creased and buyers found no great supply
of contracts TO work IN. Toward noon
prices were so TO % points up. with Oc
