Compared with a week ago, wheat this morning was % to 1% higher. Corn % to 1c up, cats showing % to %c gain, and provisions at a rise varying from 2c to 25@27c. It appeared to be a generally aoc- cepted opinion in the wheat trade that as @ result of the unfavorable con- ditions southwest, the winter crop yield ip Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas would be much less than was indi- cated by the government’s latest re- port. Bullish sentiment engendered by the wet harvest for a area of winter wheat proved to be more than an offset for hedging sales actual or prospective and for scantiness of new export buying. Deficiency -of moisture throughout Market Gossi Hatfield Progressing. RAWLINS, Wyo., June 16,—The Hatfield Oil company which spudded in on its well in the Eight Mile Lake section about ten miles south of Raw- lins just two weeks ago today‘ are now down better than 800 feet and driling is progressing very rapidly. The well which {s about three quar- ters of a mile from one of the wells which was drilled in the locality sev- eral years ago, is higher up on the structure, and drilling operations has practically proven that the sands will be encountered about 400 feet less than in the old wells. A good gas showing was encoun- tered in the well at the above men- tloned depth and drilling waa sus- pended for several hours in order to change from & manila line to @ steel line, in order to eliminate all” the danger possible from fire.

Corn and oats were governed chief- ly by the action of wheat. Besides, another good sized weekly decrease of the stock of corn here was ex- pectéd. and there was gossip that the government report on the condition of the corn crop July 1 would be bul- lish. Provisions were firmer, influenced by knowledge that the supply of hogs has lightened somewhat and that domestic cash demand for meata was very good.
