to climb. Com. oats and provis
ions also were firmer, with com
starting at 3-8c to 1 1-4c advance

Increased selling to realize prof
its on the bulge in prices ensued
and wheat as well as corn reacted,
wheat closing unsettled. 3-4c to 1
l-4c above yesterdays finish, com
closed l-8c to 1 l-2c up, oats un
changed to 3-3c advance and pro
visions unchanged to a rise of 22c.
