‘WHEAT MARKET CLOSES WEAK Break in Wheat Largely Re-| ; sponsible For Heayy Tone in Corn, Oats ; Chicago, Aug. 19.—4)—-Wheat was heavy from the start, the weakness in Winnipeg exerting a deep influ ence. Pressure to sell was heavy and ” it was largely by tired longs, som Z out on stop loss orders. Thi in wheat was largely respon sible for the heavy tone in eotn and onts. Wheat closed weak at a net loss of to 2%; corn dectined 1 to 1% oats off % to 1% cents, and previsions, 7@10 cents down. Frost damage reports were more or less discounted today on advices from the northwest which said con- ditions there were more fayorable and that the fear of heavy damage has been lessened. One expert tele- griphing from Stoughton, Sask., said wheat in that territory was a littlé farther advanced with an occasional field already being harvested, the early wheat being of good yield and quality, Another expert, witing from Ed- monton, Alta. said’ wheat in the northern section of Alberta is being harvested, with prospects of good yields and quality. This territory is Practically out of the way of frost damage, he said, while the southern part is now about three weeks from harvest. A killing frost here within the next 10 days would probably cut the yield about 50 per cent, he said. Montreal advices said prospects continue favorable in the prairie prov- inces, while Ontario farmers are har- vesting one of the greatest grain crops in recent years. Corn eased off with wheat, lower temperatures over the corn belt with below 50 reported last night in parts of lowa attracted attention.
