WHEAT FUTURES MART LISTLESS AND INDIFFERENT frre Jan, 29.—(?)—There was a listless and indifferent feeling in grain markets here early Thurs- day and the sagging tentiencies con- tinued but liberal export business and an upward surge in Winnipeg Octo- ber started a sharp rally on short covering. May closed % cent higher and July 4c higher. Oats futures were in a very nar- row range. Rye advanced quickly when scattered pressure was removed. Barley was easy but stubborn. Flax Geclined because of country liquida- tion of speculative holdings, Cash wheat was in good demand and just a shade firmer, buyers pay- cent advance to get certain types. Farm board bidding was steady but the buyer got less wheat. Winter wheat was scarce and unchanged. Durum was firm or a shade better. Cash corn demand was quiet. Oats demand was good for top quality and slow for poor. Rye demand was good, offerings being scant. Malting was scarce and wanted, feed grades quiet. Flax Offerings were very light.
