Oats Sell Lon er. . ' CHICAGO, March 8. Corn prices eased off a little today, owing mainly to a cor rect assumption that the Government re port this afternoon wottid shore the largest farm stocks ever known. The market closed steady, unchanged to c lower, with March 11.27 and May XI. 27. Oats declined 4c to tV4c and provisions 15c to 20c. It was not known until after trading closed that the total reserves of corn on farms, although of record size, fell con- aiderably short of estimates which have been current. There were predictions of a de cided -increase of the car supply. Immediate need of grain was so evident, however, that no material sag In values ensued. Selling by cpmmission-houses with East ern connections weakened oats despite earlv strength due to scantiness of receipts.
