Wheat, Rye
Gain; Oats Lag
By WliLIAM FERRIS
CHICAGO, March -)-Wheat
epened . . about unchanged today
and. then advanced steadily
throughout the session, closing at
the day's highs on gains ranging
to almost a cent. Rye followed the
pattern set by the bread cereal
but oats tended to lag most of the
cession. There was no" trading in
barley. '
Some of the buying in rye ap
peared to be short-covering. Chief
news item supporting the upturn
was an advance of a cent in the
wheat parity, National parity on
February 15 was $1.50 a busheL
At the close-wheat was to
higher than yesterday's finish,
May $1.70, oats' were unchanged
to higher, May 80, and rye
was ahead to ltt. May $1.28
Low protein wheat continued I
to be quoted at ceilings, . but re-
ports from Minneapolis saiq rugn
protein grades were down as
much ' as 3 cents a bushel from
their maximums. Many buyers
have withdrawn from the flour
market.
