Hogs Hogs were very active today at
prices that were 2650o higher than yes
terday, and by far the highest ever paid
here. Everything was sold at an early hour.
Bulk of the offerings moved at $17.0017.40,
and the top went as high aa $17.85. Sines
the close of last woek there has been an
advance of lust about $1.00 per hundred.
Broad demand from both packing and
shipping quarters, and the lightest receipts
of the summer have boen two main causes
of the upturn. Receipts this week have
been only 19,000 head, as compared with
37.000 last week and 35,000 a year ago. ,

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET. , ,
Beginning of Marketing of 1617 Growth of
Corn Bends Values Farther Down,
Chicago, Aug. 16. Announcement that a
beginning had been made In the marketing
of the 1917 growth of corn gave rresn im
petus today to the downward swing of corn
values. The close was neavy, iwiio not
lower, at $1.1301,114, December, and
$1,104 (01. 11, May. Wheat finished steady
at $2, September, the same as twenty-four
hours before; oats were on 1ITC to
2 4c and provisions unchanged to 10c
higher.
Enlarged selling was In evidence from
the outset in the corn trado. It was not,
however, until word cams of the arrival
of new corn at Fort Worth, Tex., that the
market underwent a" decided setback.
Some experts ventured to express Judg
ment that barring unseasonably early frost
the 1917 crop as a whole was already made.
It was said In addition that timely rains
hsd helped pastures and late forage crops
to a wonderful extent.
For the first time since the recent series
of price dscllnes set tn, wheat today went
below $2 a bushel. September delivery. The
trade in the option continued apparently to
be an evenlng-up sort, although some of
the selling was ascribed to entente govern
ments. On the othsr hsnd, a moderate
amount of export business seemed to be In
progress by the way of New Orleans.
Big threshing returns from all directions
formed a weight on the oats market. Ad
vices that export sales at the seaboard In
the last few days totalled 1.600,000 bushels
had Uttlo or no contrary effect.
New top rocord quotations In the corn
market brought fresh strength to provi
sions, on the bulge, though, holders
evinced a plain disposition to realise profits.
