PRICE OF GRAIN CREEPSUPVARD CHICACO, Jan. 15 Corn prices continued their recent creeping creep-ing advance Wednesday, scoring gains of almost a rent at times and reflecting a let-up in country selling and the materially improved im-proved corn-hog price feeding ratio. Wheat rose sympathetically with corn. There was a lark of pressure pres-sure in the pit. and scattered purchases pur-chases credited to previous short aellers, as well as cash grain dealers deal-ers and millers lifting hedges, strengthened the market.
