Argentine crop advices regard- ing corn were construed as bullish, and today’s receipts here were small- er. Opening unchanged to 1-4 cent up,up, corn later showed something of an advance all around. Wheat started unchanged to 3-8 cent off, und then underwent a general set- back. Oats were easy. .Provisions likewise inclined downward, Emphasizing unfavorable corn crop reports today from Argentina, advices were at hand that European demand for corn has been steadily! growing and has averaged 7,200,000 bushels a week during the last six months. In this connection, a lead- ing. trade authority was quoted to-; day as saying that it now appears Europeans will not be able to get such large quantities of Argentine corn this season as_ previously. Meanwhile, New Orleans today cleared 57.000 bushels of export corn and Philadelphia 96,000 bush- els. Gossip today as to the corn ex- ort outlook was to the general ef- fect that signs of a renewal of for- eign demand wete being associated with gradual tightening of old crop Argentine corn offers. On the other hand, today’s sellers of corn here contended that figures on do- mestic farm reserves of corn had| heen fully discounted, and that the} hog feeding basis was at present an} unprofitable one.
