Com and soybean bids continued to climb higher on fund buying and good overnight com export sales. Wheat mixed. Com 5 to 11 cents higher. Sorghum 11 to IS cents higher. Soybeans I to 6 cents higher. Wheat bids received some weak ness due to good crop conditions and slow export sales. USDA has rated the US wint er wheat crop as 70 percent in good condi tion, 26 percent fair and 4 percent poor to vety poor. In the key hard red winter wheat producing slate of Kansas, the crop was rated 80 percent good to excellent, 19 per cent fair and I percent poor to very poor. Soft wheat showed some strength on over night export demand. Com and soybean bids climbed higher again due to some fund buying on the board and carryover strength from Tuesday’s higher close. Good export demand for com overnight offered additional support to bids. Con tinued harvest pressure, however, limited gains in com and soybeans.
