Dependable Market News for Today

Quotations on Stock, Grain and Produce in Large Trading Centers by Associated Press Local Prices Revised Dairy by Leading Dealers.

CORN PRICES FALL ON CHICAGO MARKET CHICAGO, Sept. 1. Selling predominated In the corn market today at the start and prices fell away. Expectation of warmer weather with consequent speedy ripening of the crop was the basis for the recessions. Volume of trade however, was light and offerings were fairly well absorbed. Opening prices were quarter cent lower to half cent higher, with December at $1.12 to $1.12,i and May at $1.08 to $1.09. Early declines carried figures lc below the high points. Wheat traders marked time with the announcement that buying by the United States Wheat corporation would begin Sept. 4. Oats were easier with selling pressure at the outset. A reaction developed with fair buying. Country arrivals continued light and the market generally moved in sympathy with corn though the fuctuations were within narrower limits. Opening prices were unchanged to cents lower. GRAIN QUOTATIONS CHICAGO. Sept. 1. The range of futures follows: Wheat Open. High. Low. Close. No trading.
