Probably never before have the productive forces of the country been g0 largely covered by contracts at this date, insuring employment and profit far into the coming year.

The strength of cereals, notably wheat, this week is a reflection largely of decreased re- ceipts at the Northwest. Increases in Novem- ber business were not as large either in this country nor abroad as they were a year ago, and to this extent the outlook is less beari: and owing to the smaller world's production this year hopes of well maintained prices ha not been abandoned.

Chicago Grain Market. —— s CHICAGO, Dec. $.—In the face of light re- ceipts the firmness of Liverpool took second place as a factor In the strength at the open- ing of the wheat market when May showed a gain over night of %#@%4c. Commission houses were in the pit with a plenitude of country orders, but these were mostly for #mall lots. Their buying, together with pur- chases made for the short account, was suffl- clent to boost the price, the ascent early car- rying May to 704c. Bulllsh sentiment was emphatic and from some vigorous sell- ing against call hich pushed the price back for slight losses, there was nothing influential enough in the statistics to depress the market. Early statistics of a bullish nature were refn- forced later by confirmation of the report of rain in the Argentine, where harvesting is on.
