Corn finished rs to INC higher

Wheat gained strength after a
small break at the start. There
was heavy profit taking by shorts
and this was the principal source
of strength. Some buying was en-
couraged by reports of 100000
being sold for. export. However,
some of the trade were inclined TO
believe that this was trade be-
tween exports and the wheat was
bought in anticipation of a Greek
order to be filled Monday.
Cold and wet weather over the
southwest allayed fears of damage
from green bugs.
There was some good class OF
buying of May corn to remove
hedges against sales to the sea-
board and the latter reported
around half a million bushels sold
for export.
Oats followed corn and advanced
readily.
Provisions made moderate re-
coveries because of the strength in

SIMPLICITY.

Our thoughtful president-elect
has wisdom in him by the mile;
he doesn't think it quite correct,
in times like these, to put on
style. And when to Washington he
goes to cinch the presidential
chair, he wants no costly furbe-
lows, no bunting swishing in the
air. "Cut out the pomp," says
