TIIK BBK: OMAHA, "WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1913. 15 GRAIN AND PRODUGE MARKET leat Pit is Flooded with Buying Orders from Shorts. CORN SHOWS GREAT STRENGTH VhlI Yellot Crral In Xot at the Head of the List rrlth Traders) It U Looming Vp rrlth Renewed ActtTlty. OMAHA. Opt. M. 1911 It Is always a noticeable fact that on it values there Is a flood of buying orders ana at the same time offerings diminish. mis was the case yesterday When the news was received rrom aDroad teinng of advances at Liverpool of 1 penny be cause of continued unfavorable reports from India and a reported change In the crop conditions in Argentina, together with the reduction In both the Russian and Manitoba offerings, the entire trade was stirred up. This was the case, espe cially with those who put out short lines Friday1 and Saturday of last week. To make matters worse for the shorts It was reported that on the Liverpool curb futures advanced another . penny. In the north of Argentina It, was re ported the weather Is dry and that the plant, being about a foot above ground, needs moisture badly. Considerable seed ing Is yet to be done In Russia and It is said that In many soctlona this work has been Unsatisfactory. Another bullish factor and one that In board of trade parlance may be called a "telling" help to the bulls, was a decrease of 2,241,000 bushels In the vis ible, where an increase was looked for. In addition to this world's shlpmentas were only 13,600.000 bushels, where a total of oyer 15,000,000 was estimated. This re duction was caused by the mistake that was made by Bradstrcet's In figuring up tno clearances from America, last -week, which were placed at 8,333.000, bushels, when they were only 6,072,000 bushels. The pulse of the wheat market was clearly defined by the receipts at tho ,t lst0In, They wero only 1.668,000 bushels, which was considerably JJt1" helf the recelpU for the corre sponding day in 1912. wneRt unchanged to 2c lower. While corn coula not be called the leader yesterday it showed great strength. The average trader in corn is afraid of wet weather uhd this was reflected yes terday. The new crop needs could and uf, y .cndltlona to become seasoned, whllo tho weather is unsettled and It la said will continue so for several days. Cash corn was unchanged to Ho higher. The hard spots in oats yesterday were to the liking of tome of the large ele vator concerns, and prices failed to hold as strongly as those in wheat and corn. Another cargo of Canadian oats was bought to come here, and one of the big elevator companies put 60,000 bushels of contract la store. Cash oats were unchanged to Uc lower. The strength shown In the hog market, coupled with the upturns in grin, were the leading bullish factors in the pro vision market. There waa a disposition on the part of those having profits to se cure them, as It has been a difficult nut. ter for some time to take money, out of the provision pit. .S'le5Lr?nccs: Wheat and flour, equal to ST)52 bushels; corn, 7,000 bushels; oats, 27.000 bUshels.

CHICAGO, Oct. 2S.-Rellef from drouth in Argentina led to a setback today for the price of wheat. As a result the close was at a decline of JAc Corn showed, a gain of HSKe, over last night and oats a decline of tfo to HtfMc In provisions, the outcome varied from 2Ho loss-to a rise of 10c. Argentina dispatches that told of suf ficient moisture for wheat everywhere except near Hahla Blanca had a bearish Influence which was not entirely over come during the day. There was also a general snow fall throughout Kansas and Nebraska, making the best conditions for 'the growing crop. Accordingly short sellers who had withdrawn from the market yesterday, came back In force and put quotations under on amount of pressure that the bulls of even the most stubborn sort could not entirely with stand. Wheat prices would doubtless have had a greater fall had It not been for the fact that primary receipts were much smaller than a year ago. Further sus taining Power came from knowledge that the world's available supply Increase ap peared absurdly slender compared with what experience would suggest. Prospect that the winter basis of feed 111" would be established without delay hi r" rated the corn trade from wheat. Realizing of profits by longs eased oft the market a little about midday, but the close was almost at the top figures of .the session. heaviness, in oats resulted from hedg ing., sales here by Winnipeg buyers of cs lots. The stock of oats in Chicago is decreasing but the supply still shows an unwieldy excoss. Judged by last year's figures. Moderate Investment demand with cov ering by shorts made provisions generally firm. Predictions that the cold weather would bring increased hog receipts were r.ot needed. Article! Close.! High. Low .

Sunday. CATTLE Receipts were very moderato for a Tuesday, only about 6.0M head be ing reported in, making tho total for the ys, X2,25' a llng off ot about 7,000 head as compared with the corre sponding two days a year ago. It is ery evident that country shippers are resenting tho break In the market early last week and they are holding back supplies with the Idea of giving tho mar ket an opportunity to recover. With very moderate supplies of beef steers In sight this morning and with a fair buying demand packers were out In the yards In good season and desirable beef steers sold freely at steady prices. Tho big bulk of the cattle Changed hands at an early hour. As high as $9.60 was paid for a bunch of choice yearling steers utid heifers. Cows and heifers were also In fair de mand and they, too, Bold In about the same notches as yesterday. Wlhllo the trado was not particularly active there was a fair movement and practically everything had changed hands in good season In the morning. Strictly good feeders were also In good demand and prices on cattle of that de scription did not show much change. On the other hand the less desirable kinds were slow to a little lower. A snow storm, accompanied by high wind, did not help the feeder trado, an a matter of course, and made speculative buyers less anxious to load up on tho common to medium grades.

Representative sales: HOQS The market opened out In good shape Uits morning, first sales being made- at an advance of about 10c. A heavy fall of snow delayed traffic considerably, and when buyers first started out a small portion of the estimated supply had shown up. For a while buyers took everything just as It came In, but to ward 9:30 they began to get pretty well filled up, and as there were indications that the receipts would be even larger than tho early estimate values began to weaken. Prices never regained their early strength and tho balance of the offerings sold at figures that looked to be about a nickel below the opening. On the whole the market can be quoted as 6&IO0 higher. Bulk of the sales was made at $7.65(37.70, with quite a sprink ling up to $7.76, the latter price being the top. Trade was fairly active during the early rounds, but the receipts came In so slowly that it made things more or less draggy along toward the close, and It was well along toward noon before a clearance was made. Supplies totaled In the neighborhood of 70 cars, or 6,300 head. For tho week the receipts amount to 6,826, about 1,100 smaller than a week ago and over 2,509 short of the corresponding days of last year, SHEEP Most all kinds of killing sheep were steady to strong, trade being brisk right rrom the outset and nnd packer buyers having a somewhat limited supply of decent killers to pick from. There wero no strictly choice of ferings, consequently the range of prices wus much the same and no really toppy sales were made. The best lambs sold up to $7.00, with the bulk ot the good ones selling from that on down to $6.85. It ts still the consensus ot opinion If any right choice lambs wero on sale they would bring as much us $7.25. Fat ewes, wethers and yearlings were again scarce. Tho situation in feeders ahowed np material change. Strong weight feeding lambs of the best quality continued In very moderate supply and the bulk of such grades as were on the market was of the light class, this being usual at this time of the year. Early In the fore noon a string of feeding lambs was picked np at $8.30 and somo traders thought If some strictly good grades of the rlrht weight were available they would sell nt $0.SS. According to weight and quality feeding lambs might be qouted at J5.2C3J6,35. According to weight and quality feeding Iambs might be quoted at $3.mr8.35. Aged sheep suitable for feeding were in light supply and as in the case of lambs sold on K steady basis. Tho estimate placed today's receipts nt 24,000 head, being light as compared with the same day of recent weeks and tho corresponding day a year ago.

The Republic Trust Company Will Sell a Million Dollars' Worth of South Texas Land, in a Single Body, or n Blocks The land consists o! about 3C.O00 acres, situated In Cham bora County, twenty-seven miles, in a southwesterly direction, from Beaumont, and nearly fifty, miles from Galveston. It is in a solid body and is a flrie black prairie soil with abundant natu ral drainage. There aro six flowing artesian wells on tho prop erty, and the rainfall Is always abundant. Tho Gulf and Interstate llallroad, which is a part of tho great Santa Fe system, traverses the eastern line of this property, and there is water transportation on threo sides of the land. Oyster Bayou on the weBt, Onion Bayou on the south and East Bay on tho east. From many of these bayous, each of which forms a boundary line on this land, there is direct water trans portation to Galveston,, Port Arthur and neighboring towns, which is now utilized for the transportation of farm products and othor freight and passengers. The great lntercoastal canal will pass through a portion of these bayous and will thus bo ac cessible from three sides of the land. Tho south boundary line of this property extends to within a few miles of the Gulf coast. It has splendid natural drainage to the bayous surrounding it, and practically every acre of this entire body of land Is ready for tho plow without a penny's worth at expense in preparation. The entire tract is prairie land and the one lone live oak that has stood sentinel for a century, about center of the north half of tho tract, Is known as "Oak Grove." Three or four thousand acres nearest the coast line will require Bomo inexpensive drainage, to render It reliable for crops during yoars of excess rainfall. That It la adapted to tho profitable growing of fruits and vegetables has been abundantly proved, and that staple crops here grow to full perfection Is attested by the actual experience of practical farmers during a dozen years past. The corn shown in this advertisement was grown near the ranch house on this land, selected, nlantcd and riilf lvntp.i in Mm rrnrtn mnm,. aSII5WsBaBirslsH acterlstle of tho ranch farmer, who grows each year twenty-flve m!ifmmBlm'iSmi t0 "'ty acres of feed stuff for winter use. These cars were yuueu irom me staiK at ranaom, ny a man who didn't know corn, during the third week in AugUBt. Sixty-five bushels to the acre was the estimated yield when this corn was iaken from the field. Cotton, under favorable conditions, yields a balo or more to tho acre, and the cane crop throughout (this belt is al ways abundant because of the fertility of the bo1, and the ab sence of frost until the year has practically closed. This piece of property is. in all Drobabllitv. the ht rninni. zation proposition In Texas, and wjll be sold In its entirety at a price and on terms exceedingly attractive fpr development purposes. Or, it will be sold, for im mediate development, at satisfactory prices and terms in small blocks. FZ. 3ltKailIIIlaK JnailWvXBlalSsailS A Page from Our October Circular Burns.
