   US Crop Prices Higher Monday as Adverse Weather Interrupts Bear Slide

   December corn closed up 6 1/4 cents and November soybeans were up 10 3/4
cents Monday, influenced by higher closes in wheat and vegetable oils. Cold and
wet weather across northern Europe may have damaged crop prospects with more of
the same expected this week.
