Chicago, Aug. 23-(AP)-Frost
reports from Canada, together with
predictions Of more frost tonight
helped bring about early upturns to-
day In wheat values here. Besides,
Liverpool wheat quotations were
higher than looked for, and a better
demand there was reported. Open
ing 3-6c to I 3-Sc up, Chicago
wheat scored additional gains, and
then reacted somewhat. Corn was
relatively easy, starting 1-sc to 5-8c
higher, but subsequently sagging to
below yesterdays finish. Oats dis
played firmncss. Provisions tended
downward.
With temperatures az low as 2a
and quite heavy frost noted in parts
OF Alberta and Saskatchewan provin-
ces, Canada, = good dealless optimism
prevailed here today regarding the
Canadian wheat crop situation.
Moreover, probability Of frost again
tonight over some Canadian wheat
territories was emphasized by the
Liverpool wheat market closing to-
day at q rise of about 2 pence all
around. In various quarters, mean
while, opinions were expressed that
regardless of the final outcome Of
the North American spring wheat
harvest, wheat prices have reached
q level which largely discount all
favorable crop aspects, and furnishes
better chances for profit to the buy
ing side Of the market.
On the other hand, very beneficial
rains in Australia and continued en-
cellent wheat crop prospects in Ar
gentina were announced today. Some
authorities contendcd, too, that frost
could no longer this year do much
damage to quantity of Canadian
wheat, and that unless larger export
demand sets in, advances in price
would not hold.
The corn market was easier early,
owing to good rains over a wide
area, but prices developed strength
later and advanced sharply, with
sellers Of offers forced to protect
themselves on the bulge. The basis
in the sample market was 1sc to 1c
higher. Oats showed much
stronger tone, and offerings were
rather light.
Provisions were dull and irregular.
