GRAIN
CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, Aug. 8-P)-Dealers
who normally represent elevator
interests bought oats Thursday and
prices were firm in the face of
moderate offerings. Some traders
felt oats were low priced in re-
lation to corn, particularly #
production of the latter grain
should be curtailed by drought.
Corn futures, lower throughout
most of the session, recovered near.
ly all their loss toward the close.
There was early selling on rains
in Central Illinois, Nebraska, Mis-
sori and Iowa, but failure of the
moisture to extend to the dry
areas in Northern Illinois and In
diana caused late short-covering.
Corn finished unchanged to Is
lower, January $780,, and oats
were k-1A higher, August 1875.
March barley sold at $1.26M, up
".
Weather and crop reports were
conflicting, leaving traders con-
fused over what a happening to
the corn crop. Reports from ma
jor producing areas said corn
never looked better and record
harvests were predicted. But
the Southwest and Great Lakes
areas said the crop was deteriorat-
ing under continued hot, dry
weather.
1t was a question whether the
improvement in the main belt off
set the damage in the dry areas.
Prices in the spot corn market
declined sharply. Some CONNER
cial interests which bought earlier
were repeatedly selling their hold
ings as new crop corn can be bought
on a ~to-arrive basis at much low
er prices. No. l yellow brought
$1.83 against $1.90 Wednesday.
Purchases on a %to-arrive basis
totaled 1923, 900 bushels.
Cash wheat was a cent lower.
The Agriculture department an
aounced the price at which it would
buy famine wheat in various mar
kets. The Chicago on track price
is $1.951a a bushel for No. l hard
winter and No. 2 soft red. A steam
er here loaded 1913, 613 bushels of
No. l hard winter wheat to clear
for Buffalo.
The board of Trade Clearing
corporation reported that notices
were received to deliver Is, 900
bushels of oats in August con-
tracts Friday.
