CHICAGO - GRAIN


Influenced chiefly by reports that Kan
sas has enough moisture for the present,
the wheat market averages lower in price
today during the early transactions. More
late yesterday and last night. Besides i'm
provement of the crop prospect in Nebras-
ka was also reported. The opening, which
varied from unchanged figures to 3Sc low
er, with July 1.071a to 1.07 SD and Sept.
1OS So to los 7-8. was followed by mod
crate general setback and then something of
q rally.
Larger receipts and seasonable weather
made the corn market easier. After open
ing at a shade to 12c off, July II to II
1-9, prices continued to sag. -
Oats were relatively steady. Starting un-
changed to lac off, July A 3S to 4412c,
the market held near to the initial range.
Provisions sympathized a little with a
downturn in hog values.
