HEAVY BUYING IS BOONTOGRAINS Opening Prices Show Substantial Advances Over Close. By United Financial CHICAGO, Oct. 2.—Grain prices were higher at the opening on the Chicago Board of Trade today. Wheat met good buying at the opening, Induced bv higher domestic and foreign markets, while Liverpool opened strong. Buying for foreign accounts on the local mart this morning showed some improvement. The bull sentiment which has elevated prices during the past week was strengthened by the general belief that governmental aid to stricken farmers of the Southwest will be forthcoming soon. Buying by bulls and a strong cash market gavo com a higher opening, as lid light receipts and unfavorable crop news. It was the consensus of opinion among cash dealers that prices In that class would reach' $1 a bushel before the week end unless arrivals increase. Oats went up with other grains and good local buying. Farm feeding Is heavier because of the relative cheapness of grain. Provisions were higher with other grains, stronger cables and some buying of lard by Europe. Chicago Grain Table At 11 :45—00t. 2 WHEAT— Prev. Open. High. Low. Close, clow*.

Grain Briefs

CHICAGO, Oct. 2.—Prospects are for a moderate reduction of winter wheat acreage in parts of Illinois, Indiana and Ohio. Additional damage to oats in the shock from heavy rains following harvest will reduce the crop to 1.288.000.000 bushel* compared with 1.311,000.000 bushels, the esti mate last month. A large amount of com is still green in the central corn belt and unfavorable wrathtr for the next two weeks will undoubtedly double the recent frost damage. A delegation of local grain traders arc attending the annual meeting of the Grain lealers’ Association opening in Des Moines today. Traders look for hlghe- prices in wheat following several temporary slumps. It is donbtfu lthat the wheat situation is as weak as it has been pictured, they believe. No additional legislation is needed at this time to aid wheat farmers and adoption of any of the remedies so far suggested would prove harmful, leading pit operators said.

Any move made in the city council to do away with city cars for administration officials by use of taxi cabs will be opposed by the board of safety, it was Indicated today. Councilman Waiter Wise advised in a report Monday night that the city would do well to investigate a plan of Pittsburgh in which only the police and fire departments have their own cars. Other city officials hire taxis on official business. Local conditions make it impractical to rent cars, board members said. The extent of the city’s area and service mdae possible by municipal cars makes them necessary’- it was said. Police Chief Rikhoff pointed out the demands made on police force here to enforce laws not enforced in other cities. He referred to the prohibition laws. W. T. Bailey, assistant city attorney, said other cities have frequently asked for copies of the ordinances authorizing the local system of city cars. Cloverseed Market Local dealers are paying $7.50 @lO a bushel for cloverseed.

I \ Overhead & K / \ srxJcxfsnj I lALS / x VTax£s I / RgtphCouck / > r -,l HE trend of building Is one of j I the movements in which bus!1 L 1 ness men and economists everywhere are now most interested. The price of lumber is one of the things that will determine whether building will slacken further than It has or whether it will again turn upward. The United States Government made an official study of the costs of manufacturing lumber from logs and it found that every' dollar received by the lumber manufacturer Is divided as follows: for wages 35 cents, for material 34 cents and for the profit and overhead, including taxes, 31 cents. There figures show that lumber making Is unusual In that wages represent the biggest factor. At 10 per cent increase in wages of lumber mill workers would Increase the selling price of the product 3.5 cents on the dollar, while an increase in the price of logs Rnd other materials by 10 per cent would influence the selling price 3.4 cents on the dollar.
