The automobile strike threat was reported to have brought some slack- ening in new orders for motor car steel, though the steel plants have been able to maintain operations at recent levels, thanks to larger busi- ness from other consumers, including the railroads.

Rae ’ Tribune’s Grain, Livestock and Market Report for Sat., March 24 MARKET SENTIMENT [tris Quotations TT way York Stocks ere FPRELARE [PEAK FOR WEEK IS. [i REACHED IN WHEAT PRICE AT CHICAGO Trade Is Dull, However, as Ma- jority of Traders Display Marked Caution Chicago, March 24.—(#)—Wheat late Saturday scored ‘a maximum up- turn of a cent a bushel and reached '@ new high price level for the week. Prospective adjusting of the auto strike was taken as a favorable sign by grain traders, but did not greatly enlarge speculative interest. A ma- jority of operators continued to await developments, including. evidence of how the new national grain exchange code-would affect the wheat market. Wheat closed unsettled, %4-% above Friday’s. finish, May 87%-%, July 87%-%; corn unchanged to % higher, May 50%-7s; July 52%-%. Oats 's | advanced and provisions unchang- , [ed to a rise of 10 cents. Pending word of definite difficulties, wheat prices held early gains, but for the moment the rise ifailed to go beyond fractional limits. {Helping to sustain values were de- tailed reports that large sections of domestic wheat territory showed acute i ineed of rain. Advices regarding .Jdearth of moisture northwest were emphasized -as especially threatening to crops. ‘A ‘drought situation bordering on the sensational was reported by ele- vator interests as effecting spring wheat states. The reports said Min- nesota and the Dakotas were the driest spots in the nation, and that South Dakota at present was more ike @ desert than an agricultural state. Many farmers were assreted to be debating whether to abandon spring work entirely. Corn and oats baralleled wheat market upturns. Provisions were firmer, responsive *|to action of hog values and of grains. ~ é MINNEAPOLIS FUTURES ARE STRONGER AT CLOSE Minneapolis, March 24—()—Wheat had a fairly lively tone in early trade here Saturday and was strong toward Hy the close because of industrial news and good cables. Shortly after the opening there was a fresh spurt of buying stimulated by @ soll report by a local elevator com- pany. This report was quite sensa- , |tional. and stirred up buying in all markets, May, July and September wheat fu- tures all closed 14 higher. Coarse grains all finished up,-with the exception of barley, which was 4]down due to weakness in the cash market. May oats closed '% higher and July '«-% up. May rye closed % higher and July % up while May and July barley finished % off. May and July flax each closed \% higher. Cash wheat pressure was heavier but diversion point demand continued 4 | strong and offerings for local unload- ings were assimilated easily. Demand was good and market undertone very firm. Durum offerings were heavier and demand fair to good. There was virtually no winter wheat offered and demand was fair to good. Corn demand was firm at strong comparative prices. The oats market slowed down gradually. The rye de- mand was fair to good and offerings light. The barley market was in a turmoil with buyers offering lower bids and sellers inclined to believe that losses of the week should be am- ple. There was firmer holdings and more buyers were in the market. Flax demand was steady and offerings heavier. MINNEAPOLIS GRAIN REVIEW Minneapolis, March 24.—()}—(U. 8. Dep. Agr.)—Grain markets held within narrow limits di the week ending Friday and net price changes on all seins were unimportant during period, May wheat declined 18 cents net for the week, closing Friday at 83% cents.

O, Putnam. “It is hard to say now how many will sign fot the allotment here, but T expect at least 400 more to do 50,” the county agent said. He réminds the producers that it is not necessary to raise both corn and hogs to receive the government funds. Farmers who sign for the allotment on either of the products must agree not to raise the other during the com- ing season. Farmers who grow only fodder corn }do not have to cut down acereage, but those ‘growing both fodder and grain corn must curtail production the re- quired 20 per cent, he said.
