Chicago. April 8.
Wheat advanced strongly today. in
the face of heavy selling to realize

and provisions showing a rise of LOG
IL cents to Is cents.
Speculative trading in wheat was OF
larger volume today than for some
time back. From the outset prices
trend influenced good deal by the
making substantial gains on account of
expected reduction of the Argentine
official crop estimate.
Besides, Notwithstanding that the
weather Is favorable for domestic
winter wheat, the majority of traders
appeared to be getting apprehensive
about delays to spring wheat seeding
both south and north of the Canadian
boundary.
Higher prices of the day in the
wheat market here came near the end
of the board of trade session and after
news was out that export sales OF
North American wheat today totalled
much larger than usual of late, more
