Wheat Goes Higher on Deteriorating Kansas Crop
Fresh reports say the Kansas wheat crop is deteriorating, prompting early price upturns and active commission-house buying in small lots. July and September futures rose before a later mild general gain, with a late unsettled close. Corn strengthened on cold weather and replanting worries in Iowa and Nebraska, while oats firmed with grain gains and hog declines pushed provisions lower in a cautious market. Wall Street shares rose on expectations of tax reforms and short-covering activity.
