CHICAGO, June 23—Unfavorable crop reports caused strength In grain futures on the Board of Trade today and all months showed slight advances at the close. The quotations were lower shortly aft er the opening on short selling on pros pects of favorable weather. Both corn and oats were down early, but made up this loss and registered additional gains before the close. When receipts fell under expectations and it became known that switchmen and trainmen on the Milwaukee A St. Paul had walked out at Savanna, 111., a sharp upturn occurred. Prices advanced further when the Rock Island line barred consignments to other roads and an em bargo was placed on shipments to Cleve land. Buying on resting orders around $1.07 for September corn and 84 cents for Sep tember oats checked the early decline, taking the surplus out of the market and paving the way for a rebound that was almost as abrupt as the drop of 3 cents in corn and 2 cents in oats. July oats showed strong resistance to selling pressure from the start, reflect ing the congestion in that delivery. Crop reports generally were favorable, although further reports of short head ing and consequent light yields came in. Corn reports were mixed, the stand being spotted on account of the Irreg ularity In the time of planting. July corn closed 3 cents up at $1.31 after opening at $1.78, off one cent. Sep tember corn showed a similar advance, opening % cent off at $1.68 and closing at $1.71, December corn started at $1.48 and closed 3Vi cents higher at $1.51%. July oats opeued at $1.02%, down 1% ••ent and closed nt $lO4, up 1% cent. September oats 1% cent higher, closed at 85% cents, after opening at 84% cents, down % cent. December oats started at 80% cents and closed at 82% cents, advance of 1% cent. CHICAGO GRAIN. —July 23- CORN—Open. High. Low. Close. Gain.

There was very little pressure upon oats at any time, values responding readily to a moderate amount of new buying, based on the idea that the June 1 estimated yield will not materialize because of short heading. Demand for cash was a little slow, but firemiums were well held because of the ight receipts and absence of country offerings.
