Some wheat buying early in the
session was attributed to mills and
elevators, with clearing skies in
the spring wheat belt and forecast
of fair and warmer weather caus-
ing some short covering. c h
wheat prices, however, were IL to
l cent lower, with the basis steady
to a shade easier, despite heavy
shipping sales totaling $4,000 bu-
shells, the largest since November,
1888. Receipts of 41s cars were the
largest of the season. No. red
wheat sold up to IA in the spot
market.
Pessirnistic reports about the Ca
madam wheat crop caused some OF
the buying. H. c. Donovan reported
from Regina that between there
and Weyburn wheat has been dam
aged the past two weeks. The Cana
dian National Railways report said
weather has been excellent in Al
berta this week but some deterior-
alton was in evidence in central
and southern Saskatchewan a n d
northern Manitoba. However, cur
rently reported rains In much Of
this territory should arrest deter
ioration, it said. 4
