(By Thomson & McKinnon)
Wheat-Easiness in foreign markets
and the usual evening up for the end
of the week gave slightly lower prices
in wheat early, but, as for some time
past the market quietly absorbed all
offerings, responding later to a fair ex-
port business in Manitoba wheat. Liver
pool prices were Influenced by favorable
news from the Argentine crop and liberal
shipments. from Australia. OMsettlnB
this In the worlds situation, we are told
that the rice crop in Japan and China
is below an average; in fact, will not
fill home requirements. Possibly this ac-
counts for the liberal buying of wheat
attributed to the Orient for some time
past 1t is also said that rains in Aus
tralia are delaying harvest. AS to the
domestic situation, the -four trade re-
mains dull, nOnetheless, choice milling
wheat maintains strong premium, largely
because of scanty receipts. SO long as
receipts Of our own wheat remain light
and so long as the actual clearances from
the seaboard remain as liberal as in the
past, the market will, in all probability,
recover from every depression.
Corn and Oats-It is claimed that the
export demand for corn is less urgent.
Supporting this, is the fact that cash
interests were moderate sellers of the De
cember delivery rather than buyers as
recently. The market has lacking sup
port being Influenced more by this than
by any heavy selling. Poor growth of
winter wheat makes less than the usual
amount Of pasturage in some sections
and the early appearance of rough
weather In either sections necessitates
more than the usual amount of farm
feeding. We believe all depressiOns in
both corn and oats should be accepted
as opportunities for the patient investor
Provisions-Scattered selling has ap-
peared in the provisions list under the
.af a NJ afv,Np
week. The market has lacked support
and trade has been of small volume. In
this market, as in grains, we think de-
velopments viii favor the buyer.
