CANADA SUPPLYING DEMAND As Farmers Hold Crop for Higher Prices Stock Alio Coming in from Across the Border Chicago, Nov. 19. Pre-war prices made their first appearance today in the grain market. Corn and oats were sacrificed wholesale in the trading pits until both cereals were squarely on an ante-bellum basis of value. Transactions in wheat were also of great volume, with price slashing in progress. Reported unsettled general busi ness conditions furnished the back ground, and large supplies of feed stufts were said to be in sight with live stock being rushed to market instead of being held on farms, ac cording to reports. Wheat showed itself the most sensative of arty board of trade commodity and stop ped falling only after having broken y34 cents a bushel. I'.ear leaders conceded that farm ers were to a large degree success fully maintaining a holding policy as to wheat, but took the ground that the wheat must be sold at some time, and that in the meantime Can ada was supplying the urgent de mand in this country and was fur thermore glutting United States mar kets with Canadian cattle as well. Persistent liquidation of corn es pecially was explained by bears as due to necessity of a price low enough to induce consumers to stock up ahead of requirements and to coni pell buying on the part of investors. This view, however, was being ac tively combatted late in the day by the bulls with the question as to whether with pre-war prices al ready attained, the period of deflation was not now fully over, at least as far as cereals were concerned.
