(OW YIELD OF CORN HELPS GRANPRIGES MOVEMENT UPWARD, Reduction of 1929 Estimate by Government More Drastic Than Looked For STIMULATES ALL TRADERS |. : Persistent Drought in Argen-|! tine and Australia Also Gives Wheat Strength Chicago, Sept. 11.—(4)—Sensational ‘ upturns in flaxseed es at Buenos tures, a traditional index of severe damage to the wheat bok: 4 of Argen- tina, did much today to hoist wheat values here. The Argentins {1 market has jumped yp 33c a bushel | in the last two days. Corn and oats here advanced briskly with wheat,| cats touching a new high-price record for the season, and sharp notice be- ing taken of the fact that new gov- crnment crop figures indicate a total grain shortage this season of 1,251,- 866,000 bushels in the United States and Canat ith the domestic po- tato crop 25 per cent under last year. Wheat closed strong 3c to 2%c nbove yesterday's finish, (Sept. 1.354:; Dec. 1.43%; May 152% to 4). Corn colsed % to 2c up, (Sept. 1.04%; Dec. 1.02's to } jay 1.08%). Oats 4c to ™% to %sc¢ advanced, and provisions unchanged to a setback af 7c. Corn led advances in grain. values teday, with the wheat market how- ever, maintaining its usual position as a center of greater speculative ac- tivity, The fact that the govern- mont forecast of carn yield this sca- son indicated much more sever losses curing the last month than the ma- Jority of traders expected was a de- cided stimulus to carn buyers. but the consequent upturns met hzavy profit- taking sales. Wheat values derived strength not only from the action of the corn market but also from word of persist- ent drought in Argentina and Aus- tralia, Advices said the Argentine wheat crop has been seriously im- paired by prolonged absence of rain where most neded, and that in Santa Fe province the damage amounts 4}! the way from 30 to 50 per cent. MINNEAPOLIS WHEAT FUTURES MOVE HIGHER Minneapolis, Sept. 11.—(P)—Alter opening nervous today wheat futures quickly moved into higher ground, December closing 2%, cents higher. A bullish estimate on the oats crop helped that market along. Rye start- ed easy but advanced later with wheat. Barley was better. Flax fu- tures apened 6 to 8 cents higher and advanced 13 cents more before the Cash wheat was firm but there was no hoops ce oe Levinugieties Set weight or Protein qi iy. J ter wheat was scarce and in fair de- mand. Busum was ynchanged. Cash oats demand was a stronger on moderate offerings. Rye demand was good for suitable milling quality and fair for ordinary grain. Barley demand was strong for malt- i ing. Plex offerings were fair and inj noo icmand. gus Preiitters ads F gt 5 ausqe nt [ BS ake il ie: i 2 5 = on 3 ey 5 &. i ii i i 5 5; 5 i FF HA Hy i E s & FS Py 2 {1 dark northern. receipts today 626 compared to 142 a Minneapolis cagh wheat cone grain closing quotations ay today follow: 6A Gash Wheat— Delivered Arrive ++ 1.40% 1.68% 1.40% 1.42% 1.37% @1.30% 1.305 1.41% | 1.3955 01.40% 1.38% @1.38% 1,385 11.40% 1.37% @1.39% 15% Protein— 1 dark northern.

BULL ENTHUSIASM IS AT FEVER PITCH FOR ADVANCING MARKET Lower Call Money Rates and Formation of Investment Trusts Aid Trend Up OPERATORS RESUME BUYING | _JHE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, SE Few Soft Spots Crop Out, but Concerted Selling Pres- sure Is Lacking New York, Sept. 11.—(4)—Bullish enthusiasm ‘was at fever pitch again j in today's stock market. Lowering of the call money rate from 9 to 8 per cent, coupled with the announce- ment of the formation of several new large investment trusts which Wall Street as an expression of canfidence by the bankers in the gen- eral outloak, formed the background for the gdvance, which ran from 1 to 8 ts in most of the active issues, | 10 to 20 points in a sprinkling of high priced specialties. Pool operators resumed buying on @ large scale. More activity also was apparent on the part of small trad- ers, much of the buying from this source coming from the middle and far west. A few soft spots cropped out here and there, but except for @ few minutes at the opening there was little cvidence of any concerted aelling pressure. Qne of the interesting developments of the day was the heavy buying of Siandard Oil of New Jersey, which was marked up 3 1-2 points to a new high at 78. General Asphalt tallied 3 points in sympathy, with the gains in the other oils of more moderate ns. smerican Machine & indry. J. I. Case, Commercial Sol- yents, Johns Manville, and Anchor Cap common and preferred were whirled up 10 to 20 points, several of them to new high prices. Foster- Wheeler Simmons, Jersey Central, General Electric and Columbian Car- bon sold 7 te 8 1-2 points higher. Gains of 4 to 6 points were quite ; common, the list including U. S. Steel common, Westinghouse Electric, Allied Chemical, U. S. Industrial Alcohol, & Foreign Power, Radio, Consolidated Gas, Baltimore & Ohio | and Corn Products Refining. Olt shares attracted the bulk of the orders in the late after- indard of New Jersey reached @ new high, and up al- most 6 points. One block of 12,000 Dutch also was marked up to a new peak at 61%. Gains of 10 or 11 points were recorded by Simmons, Auburn Auto and National Lead, while Amer- fean and Foreign Powcr and Stand- ard Gas and Electric were up 7 points each.

Simons, representative here of that world’s greatest cooper- ative organization. " Mr. Simons spoke of the cooper- ative featurc of the Associated Press as such a success that if the new Farm Board, which eventually will surpass the A. P. in size as a cooper- ative system, succecds as well in its operations, the farm problem will cease to exist. He said this cooper- ation in the A. P. organization is be- tween 1200 newspapers with a com- bined circulation of 60,000,000. Speaking of the dissemination of the news he used North Dakota as an illystration. In this system eight daily newspapers are associated. They furnish the organization with the spontaneously originating news of their areas and this is wired into Bismarck, where, again, it is sent out over the wires and into St. Paul, et. 38 ++ 109% oe 135% te Meta, rack Me Es 8 a FEE ii * | FOR RENT—Two or thre ;|FOR RENT—Two o1 three PTEMBER 11, 1 MALS HELP WANTED —__ WANTED—At once, men or women representatives to demonstrate Nu- ‘Way Mending Fluid and other new products.
