| CHICAGO. February 16.-Profit-
| taking by holders. together with lack
| of support, led to sharp downturns
| today in the price Of wheat. more
| over, bears made much of advices
purporting to show that as yet actual
damage from the green bug pest
was small. The market rallied sud
| denly on account Of a dispatch from
f; Paris, Tex, saying the country was
| alive with green bug, but purchasing
power soon gave out again; Opening
| nrices. which ranged from half to 3N
| cents lower, with March LIZ to !.13
| and May 1.62Z to 1.64k, were tpl-
| lowed by a quick rally and then by
| a renewal Of weakness.
| Corn sympathized with the wheat
declines, but displayed considerable
resisting capacity. After opening un-
| changed to IN lower including May
at TN to 72A. the market fuctu-
| ated mostly within the initial limits.
| Oats paralleled the action OF corn,
starting Y to A of, May 46A TO
46N, and holding to about that range.
