CHICAGO, Aug. 2 (ft
Trade reports of drouth condi
tions in many sections of the
southwest, with indications point-.
ing to a critical feed shortage
in that area several months from
now, spurred an upturn in grain
figures today.
The September contract of
rye and oat led the advance,
but all deliveries exhibited
strength after a hesitant open
ing. September oats moved to
s new seasonal peak. There
was a good demand for oats in
the cash market. The upturn in
rye wa aided by covering by
previous shorv sellers.
At the close whest was -c
