NOTES ON GRAIN
Pointers on Provisions.
Chicago, Oct, 23.—There ha* . ...
portent selling of wheat. Congestion of
freight traffic la still the most eorloue
menace to an sdvsnee. Export demand is
steady, but not aggressive.
Corn and oats are also adversely affected
by car shortage, ami this condition will
tend to check bull efforts.
Provisions start out very sresk with sell
ing quite general. The pork market Is the
weakest of the list. Western run of hogs
lighter than lust year, but trade evidently
fears on Increase from the rough weather.
1 believe I have some very good informa
tion on May oats and strongly advise their
purchase. Think they will aavsnes sharply
soon.—8. E. Darrell.
