Markets Close Higher on Wheat and Corn Buying
A late special from Chicago brokers notes active markets with most items closing higher than opening. Wheat opened 2 cents under prior close amid UK passage concerns, but steady demand and a Milwaukee presence supported gains, while corn rose 34 cents on cash demand and short-covering. Provisions showed early strength then eased, with a cautious outlook on wheat and corn for the near term. The Cincinnati Price Current projects a 1.99 billion bushel corn crop, up about 11 percent, with frost risk fading in western states by Sept. 25 and mid-September reports indicating substantial harvest progress. Inspections for the week show mixed grain movements and varied grades, reflecting a generally bullish but tempered market.

The inspector of provisions bears year round responsibility with long hours from dawn to night in busy seasons. He inspects vegetables and fruits at southern ports, seals unfit goods, checks fish and freight operations, and watches butter trains and immature yields.
