GRAIN AND PRODUCE MARKET
Ecent Rains Have JSelped Buyers of
l 1 Wheat to Stock Up.
CORN CROP IS NOT YET MADE
' Cash Oata Moved I'p a Prrmlum Over
the Drrfmbrr Mark Indicate
- an Oversold Market for
This Month.
OMAHA.; Sept 14, 1911 ,
( Buyers of wheat yesterday had tem
s porary help from two sources, the
j strength abroad and the rains over the
j northwest The latter would not had
i Influenced the trade much but for the
i fact that the northwest markets showed
a strong turn and cash wheat at Mlnnea-
polls was at Increased premiums over
, previous days. Chicago shorts were well
eliminated on the advance and food pit
observers regarded the market as some
. what overbought The continued heavy
'movement to the southwest, the-Increase
j of nearly 2,000,000 bushels of public grain
In the northwest markets for the ween,
and the certainty that the spring crop
run will continue until It becomes a
weight on the northwest markets, as well
as In Chicago .encourages selling on the
advance. Cash - wheat unchanged to c
higher. .
Taking Into account the fact that the
corn crop, no matter how great its ' prom
lse Is at this time. Is not yet made, and
the other important fact that corn raisers
are not likely to become free sellers of
the new crop at such a great discount
under old corn, the conservative trader
will find reason for going slow on the
'new crop months on the depressions and
;nay find good reason for taking the buy
jlng side of the December option. The
! trader must keep In mind what a period
lot adverse weather about the time corn
'should move to fill the December con
tracts, either for delivery or for ship
ments, would do to the market , Cash
'corn unchanged to e lower.
To see cash oats move up to a pre
Imhim over the Deoember, was considered
as indicating an oversold condition ior
this month. Receiving houses have been
the best buyers, which means that the
country shippers were not able to make
their 'deliveries on aocount of a scarcity
of cars. The rank .and file of the oats
trade still remains bearish. Cash oats
iinnhariBTeri tfl lift hlirher.
, Clearances were: Wheat and frour equal
I to $18.00 bu., corn, 50,000; oats, 116,000 bu.
i IJverpool closed 8d higher on wheat,
and corn unchanged to Mid higher.
t Primary wheat receipts were 2,051,000
bu. and shipments were 1,672,000 bu.,
against receipts last year of 1.005,000 bu.
and shipments of ,000 bu.

CATTLE Cattle receipts were very
light today, there being nothing- of any
importance on sale, For the week re
ceipts foot up 28,211 head, being the largest
ior a number of weeks back, but smaller
than a year ago by almost 2,090 head.
The market on beef steers throughout
the week has shown but little change.
The desirable killers have been firm and
the feeling at the close of the week i
that If there were any here they would
sell fully as high as any time. On the

HOUb Hog prices were on the UD-trend
again this morning, the market opening
witn snippers ana ' speculators buying
about their usual proportion of the re
ceipts, mostly a nickel higher, and In
some Instances 510o higher. As the sup
ply of good light hogs was very light,
some of the heavier grades showed the
510o advance. One load of choice Duroc
hogs, weighing around 260 pounds, sold
at $8.76, top price for the day and the
highest price on this market since Octo
ber, 1910, when $9.06 was paid. After the
more urgent shipping orders were filled,
packers started In slowly, making their
purchases, generally ac higher than yes
terday. As the morning advanced trade
seemed to Improve, becoming more active
at and near the close. Mostly everything
was, taken out of first hands by 10
o'clock.
Today's receipts were estimated at
about forty-eight cars, or around 3,17$
head, as against 2,586 head last Saturday,
4,336 two weeks ago and 8,230 on the corre
sponding day a year ago. For the week
the total supply amounts to about 30,000
head, as compared with 28,680 head last
week and 26.688 head for the some time
last year. Prices at the close of the
week average 610c higher than those
prevailing last Saturday, while the top is
20o higher. . .

SHTEP There were no sheep or lambs
ou sale this morning, consequently values
remained nominally the same as on yes
terday and Thursday. Twenty-one loads
arrived, but ' seventeen of them stopped
here only for feed and water, the remain
ing four being shipped direct to a local
Backer.
For the week the receipts foot up 105,000
head, being about 20.000 more than iasi
week, but in the neighborhood of 80,000
head short for the same time a year ago.
While the supply was considerably
larger than last week, there was a good
outlet for everything on sale. The de
mand was best for anything choice on
the killing order, the less desirable stuff
being In good request. A strong feeling
to the trade prevailed aU the week and
business had a consldable life on most
days, a clearance of the offerings being
made In good season dally. At the close
of the week fat lambs are fully 25d40c
higher than the end of last week. Lambs
were In comparatively liberal supply, the
bulk being of pretty fair quality. Fat
sheep show an advance of 25c In compari
son wlth-a week ago. A fairly large num
ber of ewes were on sale, while wethers
and yearlings were In meager supply. Fat
yearlings sold better than any other class
of sheep. .
There was a broad and active demand
for both feeding sheep and lumbs, clos
ing prices ruling all of 1015c above thost
at last neek's cioee. A falrtv large mim
hr rJ dMirsble feeding lambs was avail
able and practically everythln j waa p'.ckeo
up In good season. About 44.s.v neaa were
reported as sent to the country, as com
pared with 35.480 head last week.

NEW YORK, Sept. 14. Bradstreef s to
day Bays? .
Trade has lost none or its womeo vim
and activity abounds, though It is modi
fied In a 'degree In some parts of the
southwest, where excessive heat has pre
vailed, while1 being accentuated through
out the west and northwest Everywhere
buying Is predicted on the uniformly
good Influences that record or close to
record crops will generate and financiers,
merchants and captains of Industry are,
without notable exception, exceedingly
optimistic. Jobbers rather than first
hands are occupying the center of the
stage, but manufacturers are experiencing-
especial activity In turning out or
ders previously booked. However, tha
pre-eminent features at the moment are
the active demands made on Jobbers for
goods intended for near future sales.
House trade, especially in dry goods
and kindred linen, has been especially
good, while road sales are of larger pro
portions. In fact, mall orders for 6orts
have appeared in rather liberal volume
and Incidentally more or less spring busi
ness in dry goods has developed, but on
the whole orders for distant delivery are
not particularly noteworthy, which Indi
cates that buoyant sentiment Is not
swaying buyers toward speculation.-
