SEND WHEAT DOWN
Wet Conditions in Southwest
Give Grains Setback on
Chicago Market

Chicago, July 1.-@ Decidedly
unfavorable crop reports from the
American and Canadian northwest
and also from Nebraska led to late
advances In wheat values today after
early downturns. Some advices said
Nebraska wheat prospects had retro
graded equal to Is, 900 bushels. In
the last few days as a result Of pre-
mature ripening. Profit-taking sales

brought about reactions. Attention
too, was given to rapid increase
shown in wheat receipts southwest,
today's arrivals at Kansas City,
Hutchin N and Wichita totaling
1900 cars including old and new
wheat.
Wheat closed unsettled sc to CSC

447s, Sept. 44ss to II. At. to ~, and
provisions unchanged to 15c down.
First deliveries today on July wheat
contracts here totaled c,374,000 bu.,
and this large amount tended at times
to induce speculative selling by trad
ers who expressed belief that hedging
pressure from the southwest was in
creasing and would prove a handicap
to friends of higher prices. On the
other hand. however, the market
displayed evident power to rally in
view Of dearth of rain reported from
the spring wheat belt. and because
of moisture southwest interfering with
harvest work. Adviccs were also re-
ceived telling of crop damage done by
a heat wave in Nebraska, with tenn
peratureS above 100.
Further reports of black rust in
spring where likewise at hand. From
Yankton 10 Verinilion, S. D., black
rust was said to be apparent in all
fields examined, some fields showing
that 80 per cent infection. AS yet,
the rust was reported as OH the top
sheath and not on the straw.
Taking the day as a whole, corn
prices averaged lower. Oats showed
independent strength. A feature In
the provision market was some
liquidation by holders of July lard.

of course, has acted further to retard
the wave of enthusiasm that usually
sweeps around the state at this period
of the year. Farmers state that they
must get from $1yOO to $1.25 at their
local shipping points to come out even
on an average crop. Some " place
the figure much higher than that.
Livestock producers are in a much
better position. with profitable prices
prevailing for practically all kinds of
livestock products. and with the corn
crop in a very much better condition
than the wheat crop and pastures arc
in better shape than the dearth of
moisture indicates. Wool prices have
not yet been definitely established as
marketing of the clip has barely
started. Apparently the price levels
are a little below those of a year ago.
Special information secured by this
institution indicates that the decline
in country bank deposits due to low
wheat prices is not nearly SO great as
is generally believed. Statements OF
conditions juno Is as compared to
that of a year ago were secured from
"a banks in all parts of the state and
of this number 20 showed a decline
in deposits, six reported nc material
change, and eight had increased de-
