Speculators today quickly absorbed at times all the surplus offerings of “corn future deliveries, and brought about lively ypturns in prices. Fore- casts of low temperatures spreading. southward and eastward tended to emphasize reports of continued heavy feeding on farms and of unlikelihood of. any increased movement of corn during February. Special notice was also taken of word of export pur- chases of corn ct St. Louis and of firmness corn prices at Buenos Aires, despite news of rains in Argen- tina. Wheat sympathized with corn strength, and was affected also by European advices that large stocks of wheat in North America would not be sufficient to depress values if pros- pects of next season's crop are unfa- vorable. Continued heavy purchases of wheat for the orient were also re- ferred to as a strengthening influ- 4 ence. Meanwhile, Nebraska reports taday told of a -old wave coming, lack of snow covering, and soil bad- ly blown. \FIRMNESS AND QUIET CHARACTERIZE WHEAT ‘Minneapolis, Feb. 5.—()—Firmness and quiet characterized the wheat market today.
