WHEAT ADVANCES AFTER EARLY DROP
Traders Discouraged Over Export Demand.
< CHICAGO, Dec. 13 (U. P)— Wheat prices made a short advance to near previous closing levels today
er early weakness. | ‘At the end of the first hour wheat was unchanged to s cent lower, corn was unchanged and oats were 15 cent lower to 1 cent higher.
The buying power which lifted wheat prices from opening lows was moderate and short-lived as profittaking appeared. Traders have become discouraged over the export demand, which they termed as flat. Wheat receipts were 43 cars, Corn remained dull and without a feature. Prices held within a narrow limit but on scanty buying early losses disappeared and quotaouched previous closing levels.
