GRAIN

CHICAGO, Aug 12.-Pessimistic crop reports from Nebraska and Mis- souri together with some complaints of excessive heat in the Southwest had much to do today with bringing about sharp advances in the price of corn. The market closed strong, 3 cents to 312 cents net higher, with September s1621s to $1.623s and October S1634 to s1.633s. Oats gained F cent to a4 O B cent. The finish in provisions ranged from l5 cents decline to a rise of l0 cents.
 Except just at the outset and during another brief interval an hour later, the corn market showed a decided up- ward tendency throughout the day. The temporary setbacks were ascribed to reports of scattered showers. Crop damage reports were also at hand from Southern Illinois and from Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas.
 Large receipts depressed oats. but later the strength of corn gave prices an upward swing.
 In provisions the fact that hogs had touched s2O.15, the topmost point on record, was strengthening factor. De- mand for pork, however, was lacking Close:
