Last year about 100 teachers oc'

UPTURN IN GRAIN
 PRICES ON REPORT OF MORE DROUTHl
By Associated Press

Chicago, August 17.-Upturns in prices for all grain took place today. owing largely 10 reports that drouth and heat were damaging corn; Deai- CTS who previously had been con spicuous sellers of wheat and corn executed rapid change of front. The wheat market closed firm, 1sc to 2asc net higher, with September s1. 1.os and December $1.04ss to $1.041s. Corn gained ssc to 2@2sc and oats ss O Mc to %c. In provisions the our come ranged from 7c decline to sc ad- vance.
 The wheat market showed an early downward tendency which appeared to be related to adverse European financial conditions. It soon became apparent however, that much more powerful influence was the stubborn ascent of the corn market. Soon the wheat market, too, began to climb Tn line with corn and closed at the top most figures reached.
 Export buying of wheat here was estimated at 620,000 bushels and it was said 100000 bushels more had been taken at the seaboard, mostly tor deferred shipment from gulf ports to Europe.
 Notwithstanding that rural offers of corn increased as prices bulged' the corn market advance gave ID sign of being checked. South Da- kota. Minnesota, Nebraska hansas' Oklahoma. Illinois, Indiana and Ohio ware all said to be in need of rain. Oats followed corn.
 Provisions averaged lower with hogs.
