He had. At least. he had been
coming to the flat for more than
a year. And Honey Lou knew
that Margret, in her own mind
expected him to ask her to marry
him.
But there had never been any

Before Honey Lou could say q

a setback of nearly sc a bushel on
some transactions as compared with
yesterdays finish. Word, however,
that the drop in values had resulted
in considerable export buying, helped
to rally prices here toward the last.
Earlier advices at hand indicated that
Argentine and Australian wheat afloat
for England would be diverted to
other European countries and that
this would curtail demand for wheat
from North America. Throughout the
day strike developments outweighed
all other factors.
Good prospects of rains in the
spring wheat area both north and
south of the Canadian line tended
further to weaken prices. Favorable
crop reports from the southwest
counted also as bearish influence.
In this connection, significance was
attached to word that 10000 bushels
of No. hard winter wheat was being
shipped to Chicago from Kansas City,
at 11Ac over May delivery here, and
that a good, deal more wheat might
be worked to Chicago from the south
west A decrease of 4,452,OOO bushels
in the worlds available supply was
announced but was small compared
with 1851, 900 bushels falling off a
year ago.
Corn and oats were weak owing to
the sympathy with wheat.
Provisions also averaged lower as
a result of grain weakness.
