as strong ones during the session, but
eventually the latter carried the day and
prices closed higher. Mondays statistical
news, which is more plentiful than that of
any other day In the week, was, as a
rule, unfavorable to better prices, but
there was great deal of short wheat to
be covered, and there were crop reports
OF diseouraging character from Argen-
tine. 1t was the latter which received
the credit of causing the final advance Of
the session. December wheat opened from
75s4 q75l4c, sold between 751sc and TIC, clos
ing at 76%c-7sc higher than Saturday.
Cash wheat was irregular, closing lie
higher.
Corn attracted scant attention, and was,
as usual quite neglected Prices deferred
sellers, and the big supplies menaced buy
ers. Wheat changes kept prices of corn
moving slightly, through the sympathy
existing between the grains, but there
was no independence in the action. May
corn opened from &c to 267sc, advanced
to 2714c, closing at 27ls@27Ac-Ac higher
than Saturday. Cash corn was firm and
1ac higher
Oats were dull, and, by. taking inspira-
closed 1sc higher Cash oats, were firm
to Ac per bushel higher
Provisions-A frmer tone existed and
some advance in prices was achieved in
the provision market This was due as
much to the firm feeling of wheat as to
higher hog market. The close showed
strength, with January pork 171ac higher;
January lard, 109121sc higher, and jan
uary ribs, TIC higher.
Leading futures ranged as follows:
Opening. Highest. Lowest. Closing.

ARBoR DAY IN THE SCHOOLS.
why 1t Is Not Observed by the Pub
lie schools of savannah.

Arbor day comes on the first Friday I,
December, and is, in many schools. mad,
the occasion for holiday, but In Sayan
nah its claims for this distinction ha.
never been recognized.
The planting of trees, for the purpose
of perpetuating their existence in tbe
country, and making amends for the in
roads the numbering industry and neces.
sity for fuel are making in the number
of trees, is observed on this particular
day to a far greater extent III the compar-
ativeIy treeless western states than here
in the south, where the forests are still
plentiful.
The state school law provides for the
days recognition as a holiday, but there
are two reasons assigned for its non-ob-
servance in Savannah. One reason. Stunt
Ashmore says, is because of the schools
having already more than the ordinary
number of holidays, and the other rests
in the fact of the planting of trees in the
city being under the direction of the park
and tree commission, and the ordinances
prohibit any being set out except under
It's supervision.
Some figures Of the department of agri-
culture at Washington, giving the value
of the forest products of the country. show
the desirability of the preservation of the
forests The last report of the direction of
the mint gives the value of the product |
of the gold and silver mines in the United |
States for the year 1894, as follows. Cold |
$50 800 900; silver, $31, 422 900; total $40 900
OOO while the products of the forests es-
timated for the same year, are valued at
fifteen times that amount or s., O5S, $50 $50
If, to the gold and silver produced, the pro-
duct of all other minerals, including such
prominent ones as iron, copper, zinc, lead,
coal, lime salt, building stone and TWEEN
ty-iye more others of less Importance.
their combined values would be only about
one-haf that of the products of the for
ests.
Commissioner Glenn has recently is-
sued circular to the teachers of the state
calling their attention to Arbor day and
suggesting its observance by tree plant
ing exercises While the Savannah schools
will not have holiday on Arbor day. the
children Will devote the whole year to the
care Of the city's trees, in so far as the

their jackknives into them and the demo-
