CHICAGO. October 6.--Despite heavy
profit-taking sales the wheat market
has averaged higher in price this
week. aided by expectancy OF gov
ernment measures for farm relief and
by unusual strength Of corn. Com
pared with a week ago, wheat this
morning ranged from X decline to

quality. were the chief buliish influ-

first part Of the week. The top prices
OF the week were attained the day on
which It was announced that the
President had sent officials from
washington TO discuss with wheat
growers OF the central northwest
more extensive use of government
funds under the rural credits act.
Apparent absence of any definite
moves toward an increase Of the
wheat tariff, however, or toward

There has been q fair recovery In

One Of the principal points made by

contention was that the farmers were

marld for merchandise and bring
about a decline In other lines. Even
then the grounds for this opinion
were Inadequate. But such as they
were, they have now entirely dis

rarmerS Condition Not SO had.
The wheat farmers must reconcile
themselves to the fact that the 1928
crop cannot be marketed at a profit.
All remedial efforts will be bent
toward keeping down the planting
for 1924 by devoting part Of the
wheat territory to other crops for
which there Is q better demand. But
the unsatisfactory wheat conditions

If the cotton goods situation Is not

All depends upon the ability to make
up the increase through higher prices

in diminished demand.

To sum up. there are more points
that are favorable In the business

Still the latter are numerous enough
to be taken into serious account and
to stand in the way OF any early
