Don't Miss This Vital Message GRAIN PRICE EBB Chicago, July 11 VP) Gov ernment forecast of large 1942 wheat, rye and oats crops de pressed prices of those cereals today but corn rose almost anent inasmuch as the outlook for harvest of that grain ii not as good. Wheat closed H-le lower than yesterday, July $1.19. Sep tember S1.2214-1.22V. Besides the crop forecast, depressing factors in the wheat pit included profit taking, which shaved the week's net gains from Monday's lows to about 5 cents, and hedging sales in connection with the new crop movement. Anticipation that larger receipts in the southwest next week might fill the small remaining terminal and sub terminal storage space available also was an unsettling factor. The government forecast of 902,228.000 bushel of wheat, third largest on record, suggest ed total supply, Including carry over, will exceed 1,534,000,000 bushels, by far the largest on record and more than double normal annual requirements.
