GRAIN QUOTATIONS

WAGNER'S GRAIN L-ETTER CHICAGO, Oct., 16. Market Blow, cash stuff showing little change. Corn belt wet but northern forecast for much colder and with heavy frnot In sections. January lard at $24.30 and October cotton at $34.80 continues as an object lesson to the farmer. The sales to date do not appear large. Provision demand outside of lard is light. There is no news on the 850,000 oats reported sold for export yesterday. Many people bullish on corn and predict a final liberal advance. More talk, of 25 cent sugar. Chicago is buying moderate amounts cf new corn around the basis of December prices.

To the old standbys, "supply and

demand," are charged high prices of butter and eggs, by one of the leading produce dealers in Richmond.

"As long the people -will pay prices asked by the dealers, with on

ly slight complaint, no reduction in

price can be expected," he said. "Last spring, -when eggs were

bought up for storage, buyers were

torced to pay from 45 to 60 cents a

dozen. Formerly they were able to obtain eggs at about 25 to 30 cents a dozen. The dealers handling storage eggs will be forced to ask at least 60 cents a dozen in order to get out from under, without loss." The great foreign demand for all

American products did not exclude

eggs from the list and the foreign

buyers will pay any price asked to

secure preference. American buyers are forced to pay the same prices. To Go Up More.

"Egg prices will increase steadily

until after Tbanksgi-ring and then will maintain about the same price until early spring," says another produce dealer. "Storage eggs have not been placed on the retail market yet, for prices have not reached the level where holders can dispose of them without loss." "The consumer Is much to blame. Labor, receiving the largest wages In history, dont care. Housewives will now pay from 60 to 70 cents & dozen for eggs, and hardly utter a protest. Three years ago, 60 cent eggs would have caused a food riot." , Again all laborers connected with the produce and poultry businesses have received great Increases In

wages, compelling their employers to charge more. Increased shipping rates, high cost of tires and gasoline, exorbitant prices for poultry feed and a great many other factors are contributing causes. Foreign competition Is also the chief reason why butter is so high. American condensed milk has become so popular In Europe that American manufacturers are hard pressed to supply the demand. Creameries and the farmers are paid greater prices for milk by the condensed milk manufacturers than could be obtained, for butter on the home markets. For this reason a scarcity of creamery butter has resulted, and butter, obeying the law of supply and demand, has gone Up. Feeds Also High. High prices charged the farmers for dairy feed are another 'reason why butter Is so costly. The farmer has to get an ample return for hi3 milk, or else he would sell his cows

to the stock market. Butter Substitute has only slightly allayed the situation, as the American public does not take kindly to oleomargarine. Poultry is bringing the same price it brought three years ago, despite the fact that poultry is being shipped out of the country in increasing numbers. . .
