Today’s Market Gossip j
Ounctdiatlon of corn sales to the east
reported today at Chicago to a known
total of 300.000 bushels.
Charles Schwab of Bethlehem Steel says
Indications are company's steel plants
will be working full capacity during cur
rent rear. Ship building is booked well
into 1921.
Referring to the cash corn market
Chicago wire says that cash corn prices
have been a matter of receipts The ab
sence of eastern demand together with
cancellations suggests that most any dav
ca6h corn will be a matter of demand In
stead of receipts. The doily local con
sumption of corn is around 100 cars per
day. With shippers out of the market,
continuance of present movement from
the country should weaken the cash posi
tion in time.
Grain letter bv wire from Chicago says
that premiums for cash corn are the rea
son for the action of the deferred deliv
eries. The absence of new demand from
the east together with concellation of
previous sales is sufficient reason for be
lievlng that the buying of current re
ceipts will not be long continued. It
seems to us there Is no logical reason
for any further advance in the deferred
deliveries.
Grain and provision letter bv wire
from Chicago says: “Further canceiia
tions of shipping sales previously made
to eastern distributing trade were on a
liberal scale. These cancellations total
around half million for the day and
those In touch with the situation believe
there have been two million or more can
celled the lost two weeks. This condi
tion may become of considerable impo'--
tance in the cash market and as cash
prices are the foundation for the deferred
deliveries they in turn will be affected.
Illinois and lowa points report a better
supply of empty cars. Eastern roads are
said to be cleaning up congestion. Lack
of new shipping demand and concalla
tlons of old salea leaves the burden of the
cash market upon local industries whose
requirements are around 10 cars daily.
We believe the trend of prices will be
downward.
“Oats—While the immediate cash posi
tion in oats has not been yectifled, it is
to be noted that new demand from the
east is slow and foreign demand non
existant. Unsettled weather is predicted
over the central west and seeding is
under way. The selling of May oats had
the appearance of liquidation’. We be
lieve values will drag.
“Provisions—There is the indication of
an over bought position 1n hog products.
Domestic trade fairly good, but foreign
demand does not appear.”

dium hogs 25e lower; others steady.
Buyers at the opening of the market
contended that the local prices were out
of line for the strictly good light and
medium weight stuff in comparison to the
larger outside markets and succeeded In
forcing sellers to accept the same view
The result was that hogs lighter than
250 pounds were 23c lower from the
start. Heavy hogs- were steady.
Sows sold at sl3 down, with little eom
! petition among buyers. This was con
| sidered by soma to be 23c lower against
j a top of $13.25 prevailing Monday, but
lack of demand was generally accredited
with any decline apparent.
There was a weaker undertone to the
pig market and with a top of $15.50
against $15.75 the day before some In
clined to class pigs as lower, but there
was also a scarcity of good pigs and the
run of stock on hand buyers claimed had
a material hearing on prices.
Hogs weighing 160 to 200 pounds i
; brought $16.25. 200 to 225 sl6. 225 to 250
sls 76, 250 to 275 $15.25. 275 to 300, sls,
; and good over 300-pound average, !
$14.50(315.
The top of $16.35 against $16.60 Mon-
I day was 2pc lower, and the bulk of sales
at $15.75018.25, as compared with sl6@
J 0.50 was also 25 cents.
Cattle.
Receipts, 1.300; market active and
1 steady.
There was a bigger percentage of good
stuff than usual In the run of cattle on
hand and prices were considered fully
steady with Monday.
There was a strong demand for butcher
cattle and sellers had little difficulty In
clearing their pens. Good cows sold at
sllOllsO, and some choice heifers sold
at $ 12(012.50.
Good fat steers cleared at $11012.65,
and buyers classed this class of cattle
ns fully steady, against a tower tendency '
In evidence on Monday.
Calves.
Receipts. 900; market $1 lower.
Big run of calve* was the prime factor
in prompting buyers to l>e less anxious i
to fill their orders promptly and sellers
eould not well afford to be insistent for
the same reason.
The net result was n range of prices 1
$1 lower all around. The bulk of the ■
good veals sold at $18.50019.50, with a
very few fancy calves clearing the top
of #2O.
Medium veals brought $16(018; lights,
sl2® 14, and the heavies. $7(010.
Sheep.
Reeeipts, 200; market steady.
Bunch of fall clipped western lambs j
was Included In the run on hand and they
sold at $16.50, a discount of $2 for th%
fleece.
This was considered fully steady, as
was also $lO paid for bunch of good
sheep.

their supplies to shipping point added
receipts will have a tendency to lower
present quotations.

Federal Probe Report Causes
Drop in Prices.
CHICAGO, March 23.—The bearish ele
ment prevailed in trading in grain
futures on the Chicago Board of Trade
today.
Unloading by longs on reports that a
federal Investigation of recent advances
in prices is contemplated caused further
declines of from 1 to 2 cents.
Provisions were lower.
March corn opened down lc at $1.61,
and later dropped %e to $1.60%.
May corn was down %c at opening of
$1.68%c, and later declined l%c to $1.56%.
July corn, after opening down 2c at
$1.52, sagged l%c to $1.50%.
September corn was down %c at the
opening of $1.48%, and later dropped 2c
to $1.46%.
May oats at 87%c was down %c at the
opening, later declining to 86%e.
July oats down %c at 80%c, and later
dropped to 79%c.
There was an irregular and unsettled
market in corn, with closings at losses
of l%c for March 303%c for May. 2%0
2%c for July, aud 2@2%c for September,
The weakness was due wholly to the
selling by longs and to the failure of
buying power to develop. Being unable
to secure cars for the shipment of corn
to the east there were cancellations of
250,000 bushels, including a cargo of No.
3 sold for May shipment, which was
contracted at a price equal to l%e under
the May.
Cash corn was 2c lower to 2c higher
and cash oats %c lower.
Oats futures were %c to l%e lower.
The provision list was a little lower.

Poison Discovered ■
in Silage Sample!
A near relative to the botullnua
found recently In ripe olives has been
found in silage by experts of the Uni
versity of Illinois. Farm Adviser L. W.
Wise of Iroquois country sent a sample
of silage to the university, which In cer
tain feeding operations had proven In
jurious to cattle.
An examination of the silage did not
Incriminate molds so frequently referred
to in connection with forage poisoning,
but the presence of a bacterial toxin
which has been found in other feeds In
serious outbreaks of forage poisoning
in horses and mules.
lasmuch as it appears that small
amounts of this toxin may prove fatal,
it is obviously dangerous for farmers to
taste samples of feed which have proven
poisonous to animals, and such practices
might advisedly be discouraged.
Botuliuis antitoxin has been used ex
perimentally in immunizing animals
against this form of poisoning and one
human life has been saved by Its use.
Veterinarians are asked to report cases
of forage poisoning to authorities at the
university and secure limited amounts of
serum for experimental use.

Shop Early if You
Want Garden Seed
Farmers and gardeners are beiafi
warned by Indianapolis seed dealers to
; place orders for seeds early this year
because of the uncertainty of freight and
express service, according to Sibley F,
f Everitt of the Everitt seed store.
“Many orders placed at seed produc
tion centers hare been delayed In ship 4
i ment,” said Mr. Everitt, “and It is de
sirable that dealers know what the needs
of their customers will be some time in
advance. We are even encountering de
lay In shipments from dealers here to
planters in the state, so those who place
orders early will be safest.”
