Omaha Grain Omaha, May 31, 1923. Total receipts at Omaha were 193 oars fnr two days, against 203 cars last year. Total shipments were 98 cars as against 99 cars last year. Cash wheat on the Omaha market was steady at about 1-2 cent higher. Corn was in good demand, unchanged to l-2c higher^ Oats were l-2c higher. Rye was quoted unchanged, and bar ley nominally unchanged. > There was a material broadening in the trade in both wheat and corn dur ing the early session of the Chicago future market today. The undertone was much better with hulls showing more aggressiveness than for some time past. The buying was of a het ter class than the selling. The lat ' ter was largely of a local character, while commission houses took both wheat and corn. The wheat market developed considerable strength and scored a good, advandb. Corn and fiats also were strong and higher, mainly on the lack of important sell ing and scattered buying encouraged by the strength In wheat. Shorts covering was in evidence during most of the session. Some change in sen timent was noted and the pessimistic feeling which has prevailed of late is materially lessened. Thomson & McKinnon have reports shoving that chinch hugs are show ing up in large numbers in parts of Illirjoia and fears are expressed of damage to the crops. A letter to the K. C. Christopher Grain company of Kansas City from Sedalia, Mo., says chinch bugs are doing considerable damage to wheat in that territory and Pettis and Cooper counties will have a light yield due to the damage. Some wheat fields being plowed up and planted to corn. R. VV. Kinyon wires from Geary Okl.: Wheat from Alva to vicinity of Ponca Spring averages fair stand and length. With normal conditions will make 15 bushels. Ponca Springs to Hills, many poor fields four to six bushels. Watonga here wheat aver ages fair stand and length; will make 12 to 14 bushels. A few early fields of corn good stand, some replanted and drowned out ,and some not plant ed yet. Some cotton planted at WHt onga, but destroyed by rain. Harvest here should start in about two weeks. R. O. Cromwell wires from Lincoln, Neb; Conditions have improved ma terially. Thomas county. 10 miles north of Clay county and west to Brewster, fields vary from 5 to 20 bushels. Brewster to Goydland, poor; no good wheat. From Drayton on the Roek Island to Republic county is reached, an occasional fair Held in Smith and Jewell counties. Wheat around Fairbury, Neb., promises 12 to 14 bushels, but is noticeably poor Dewitt and Lincoln. J. T. McLaughlin says! On Tues day, March 13. the Mjty corn sold 75c with 29,730,000 bushels corn in the visible. September corn ih selling now at 75c with 9.394.000 bushels in the visible I consider it an attractive purchase. Ixmdon cable says: The French and Germans have arrived at a set tlement of the Ruhr question, ac cording to the Daily News, which says the information is based on ‘‘the 1 most reliable authority.” Washington: Weather effect on ag riculturai interests varied greatly dur ing the week generally decidedly too wot i*n the southeastern states, lower great plains arc! much of the lower Mississippi valley, hut warm weather latter part of week more favorable in the centra! and northern states cast of the Mississippi river. Progress of winter wheat generally good to very good with further improvement of most of Ohio valley states, while this crop advanced satisfactorily in the tranninissiKsippi area, though still late in western Kansas. xProgress of . pring wheat generally very good; growing nicely mostly. Corn planting made better progress in the Ohio valley states. Condition gen erally fair, good in Missouri, hut germination poor and crop getting damage from heavy rains and washing in Oklahoma. Stands gener ally very good, but growth rather poor in Kansas. Kansas crop report: Topeka. Kan., crop made rather slow growth. In the south-centra 1 counties there was con siderable replanting, possibly 25 to 50 per cent. KIm where stands are gen erally satisf actory. Cultivation is un der way in the south control counties and over the eastern tbrid. In the western counties there is still some planting to be done. Wheat is marly all headed out in the counties lying east and south of Reno and is heading in the eastern half almost to the Nebraska line. In Harper county 50 per cent of it is in bloom. In the western third it is be ginning to arrive at the jointing stage, but there is a rpenace as most of it is much behind the season and the hessian and chinch bugs have damaged it in the eastern half and the prolonged wet weather has had an unfavorable effect on the crop, thougli it has tended to discourage the chinch bugs. Barley is fine in the northern coun ties where tin* bulk of the crop is I raised. Oats in the eastern half of; the state are poor to fair ns a rule. WHEAT.

LEYDEN. By Universal Hervke. Chicago, May 31.—Sleeping shorts in May corn became aroused during the last minute of trading today and in their efforts to cover boosted that month rapidly to an advance of 5%c at the bell. May wheat sagged the while and passed out Ho to -V lower and at a discount under the deferred deliveries. Wheat closed %c off to lHc higher, corn was %c to 5;Hc advanced,, oats were Ho lower to %c higher, rye ruled He to He up and barley fin ished steady. Unconfirmed reports of a settlement of the Ruhr difficulty, strength in the Liverpool mart, and a more lively export demand, all helped to instill a feeling in the trade of confidence. There was further prominent short covering in the July wheat at times, while the September was mainly taken by a house with seaboard and foreign connections. May Corn Close* .Strong. May corn, in Its final spurt, reached to new high levels for the season and passed out at a comfortable premium over tbe deferred month, this confirming the per sistent argument of the bulls that the cash situation in the yellow cereal is one of unusual strength. Movement to primary market wns under expectation* Shorts bid for the May oats during t tie day and this month closed irregular!). Cash demand for oats is active and the basis Is strongly held • Trade in rye was not large The mar ket closed firm with oth* r grains. Provisions closed firm and at fair gains. Lard was 7 He to 12 higher and ribs were unc hanged to 2 He advanced. Pit Note*. Less pessimism waft expressed In the trade today; in fact a spirit of more or less cheerfulness prevailed The market proved itaeif quite responsive to buying orders, and this gave the impression that ll was not only fairly well sold out. nut also that liquidation was well over Crop news from the winter wheat belt was less favorable. Reports told of dam age In Illinois and Missouri from chinch bu" while hessian fly was complained of in Nebraska and Kansas The govern Hunt report said that the plant made favorable progress the last week. Cables had St that cold weather over western Europe has Weld the crops back Milling wheat In the local market was in light offerings and fairly good demand, premiums advancing Ic to 2c. In the Minneapolis market all mills were said to be after choice grain In a moderate way. Pash markets in the southwest were less active. Local exporters reported Inquiry for new crop wheat, via the gulf at 11c over the September. India was said to be -ffering to the United Kingdom large quantities of wheat at concessionary levels, and below the price of other surplus -ountries Despite this new* the Liverpool mart developed a strong undertone late today anti closed H to % d advanced. The India ship ments of wheat this week totaled 848.000 bushels. Corn and Wheat Bulletin.
