NEWS OF BLACK RUST
AGAIN BOOSTS WHEAT
Reports From American and Ca
madam Northwest Have Bullish
Effect on the Market.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, August BLACK rust
reports from the American and Ca
madam Northwest turned wheat up
ward today after a wavering start
lower quotations from Liverpool than
expected. Opening unchanged to y
cent off, wheat underwent a moderate
general setback and then gained.
Corn and oats developed firmness also,
corn starting at IA cents decline to
"a cent advance and subsequently riS-
ing all around. Provisions tended to
sag.
Advices today regarding wheat In
northern North Dakota and in Mani
toba said black rust has quickly
changed to a damaging stage by hot
days Of about a week ago and now
promises from light damage in early
wheat to rather heavy damage of
latest fields. Some of the wheat in
the region will be cut next week, but
most of the crop needs two weeks to
ripen.
Reports from other sources said
that it will require only about "a
hours Of the wrong kind of weather to
cause heavy damage from rust all
through central and southern Mani
toba From two to four weeks, these
reports asserted, will be required for
wheat over this whole district to ma
ture, and with a return OF warm
weather there will undoubtedly be
heavy shrinkage in yields.
