   China Purchase Helps Corn Hold Small Gain

   May corn ended 2 cents higher Friday and pocketed a whole nickel on the week
with slight help from flooding concerns and an 11.8 million bushel purchase
from China on Friday. Friday's losses in soybeans put them modestly lower on
the week and winter wheat finished with small losses on Friday, but posted
small gains for the week.
