Vanadinm Steel was In demand, moving up 2 points to 66%. and American Tobacco Securities rose 1% to 56. PanAmerican yielded fractionally to 102. The market closed steady, with government bonds unchanged, and railway and other bonds steady. Total sales of stocks were 140,1(0 shares; bouds, $5,041,000. Total sales of stocks for the week were 2,115,700 shares; bonds, $55,146,000. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —June 26 Today’s market was a typical Saturday affair with small attendance on the This, coupled with public Indifference, made for a decidedly small volume and narrow range. The outstanding feature has been an unmistakable tendency toward firmness. Special groups at times seem to absorb attention, but the list as a whole shows au absence of selling pressure. A satisfactory rate decision would be of immense help In restoring confidence. Because of money, political uncertainty and doubt as so when the rate decision will be handed down, and what It will be. It Is hardly fair to look for any change In the character of the market.

Stock Market Review NEB I"UK. .1 line 26 The Evening Sun financial review today said Today s short session of the stock market was dull to n degree and price changes were narrow and unimportant. The only significance which possibly could le attached to the performance was to be found in the consistently strong undertone, notwithstanding the neglect. It was not buying Initiative which kept the list from receding; It was absence alike of Interest and offerings Commission houses were virtually deserted and attendance at the stock exchange wns light Prices fluctuated idly to the dosing.

STRONG BUYING BOOSTS GRAINS Demand Inspired by Prospect of Shipping Tieup. CHICAGO, June 26.— Trading In grain futures was active on the Board of Trade today. Strong buying caused a bullish market and prices closed 1 to 2c higher. Buying wns caused by the belief that grain shippers will experience considerable difficulty In moving the 1920 crop on account of the car shortage. The market opened weak on scattered selling, but recovered in early trading. \ CHICAGO GRAIN. —June 26 CORN—Open. High. Low. Close. Gain.

The recent motives for higher prices, namely extreme premiums for cash corn, do not exist. Contract grades now are selling close to a premium over the July, where the elevators will buy for July delivery. Cash prices were only slightly affected hv the advance In deferred deliveries, the bulk of sales being at yesterday's prices, although some sales were made % cent higher. In view of the gradual wearing down of premiums for cash corn and the probability of a maintenance of the present volume of receipts we suggest that the selling side offer* somewhat the better opportunity. Recent claims of short headings In the onts crop were revived end toward the last were Recompanied by a forecast of high temperatures. The demand was of a rather substantial sort. However, If the ' forecast materializes the market Is in a p sltlon to respond readily. Old oats In transit were offered in somewhat larger quantities. In anticipation of this cash buyers reduced their premiums. We do not expect any sufficiently large movement of old oats to weaken the cash situation. CHICAGO CASH GRAIN.

U. S. CROP DATA MORE OPTIMISTIC Report Indicates Labor Shortage Exaggerated. By DR. FRANK >l. SURFACEWASHING TON, June 26. —The serton* shortage of farm labor and the unfavorable weathei throughout most of the principal erdp area has caused some worry regarding the size of this year’s crop. A memorial recently presented to President Wilson by the American Farm Bureau Federation, the National Grange . and the Farmers’ Union calls attention to what they describe as “the critical situation existing on the farm and the resulting menace to the nation's food supply.” The memorial states that the leek of farm labor has cat production onethird In some sections, and that many millions of acres of land were being left "uncropped.” The May crop report of the department of agriculture give some figures from which we can estimate the accuracy of these statements and form some idea of the seriousness of the situation. The department has now given estimates on the acreage planted to winter wheat, spring wheat, oats, barley, rye and hay. This includes all the principal cereals except corn. The total acreage for these six crops amounts to 179.343,000, which is 87.7 per cent of the 1919 acreage, and 101.* pear cent of the nine-year average. The principal decrease this year, compared with last, Is In winter wheat. If we consider only the three springsown grains—wheat, oats and barley—th* average percentage of the 1919 acreage is 93.5. This is not such a serious reduction and indicates that in spite of the labor shortage, the farmers have planted the usual nnmber of acres. AVERAGE OF 98.5 FOR THREE CROPS. The 1920 estimated yield of these crops and apples and peaches averages 5-6 per cent greater than in 1919, and L 7 per cent greater than the average production for the years 1914-1918-Taklng the three spring-grown crops, the estimated production this year is 1.777.000.000 bushels, compared to 1,623,000,000 bushels last year, an increase f 9.5 per cent. Some further evidence along this line is shown by the department of agriculture’s estimate of the composite condition of all crops expressed in percentage of the ten-year average. This figure on June 1 1920. was 94.8 per cent, which is only 5.2 per cent below the same figure on June 1 last year. HARVEST PROBPECT NEARLY NORMAL. All of these data indicate that our harvest this year will not be far below normal. No one doubts that there is a serious shortage of farm labor this year and everything possible should be done to relieve this situation, but it is unfortunate that the farmers’ organizatione are making claims so at variance with the official estimates. , * No official estimates have been made on the corn crop as yet, but the private unofficial reports indicate an increased acreage here, also. Another statement reported in the press as coming from the American Farm Bureau federation states that “farm prices already have been forced down.” This also does not agree with the official reports of the department of agriculture, In the department’s report issued June 9. 1920, It says: “The level of prices paid producer* in the United States for the principal crops Increased about 5.1 per cent during May. “On June 1, the index figure of price* was about 23.8 per cent higher than a year ago, 39.9 per cent higher than two years ago and 105.3 per cent higher than the average of the past ten year* on June 1.” The price of meat animals did decrease 2.4 per cent between April 15 and May 15, compared to an average Increase of 0.2 per cent in the same period In the Inst ten years. But since the F*m bureau’s reference was apparently to field crops, the statement cannot be supported by the official facts.—Copyright, 1920.
