GRAIN PRICES ARE
BOON TO BUSINESS
CORN PRICES SENSATION AT 27
CENTS MORE THAN PRICE
OF YEAR AGO
CAR LOADINGS SET RECORD
Steel Stacks But Buying Continues
Heavier Than Preceding Month;
Money Market Firm

New York-Considerabla encourage
ment is found in business circles in
the continued firmness of the grain
market. Corn remains the center of
interest, new high prices being realized
despite the fact that the department
of agriculture predicts a crop of three
million bushels. Such a large yield
and at prices considered remarkably
good, should, it is believed, improve
the position of the farmer considerab-
ly. Wheat prices also held close TO
the seasons high, while the depart
ment of agriculture announces that
the prices farmers are receiving now
from their principal crops are 27 cents
above those Of a year ago.
Cotton prices also continue to hold
up well, although additional curtail-
ments were reported in certain of the
New England textile mills. Mills in
perating at about ninety per cent of
capacity.
Railroad car loading reports mean
while show that a learge distribution
of goods is being maintained. A e
high record in car loadings has been
set, some 100000 cars being loaded
with revenue freight.
Signs of further slight s~lackening
are apparent in the steel industry, al
though buying during October is re-
ported better than during September.
Firmness in foreign exchanges is at
tributed to French and German agree
ment on Industrial matters.
Little change is apparent in the o
ey market.
