ST LOUIS, Aug. 19.-St. Louis spectators in
wheat are estimated to have cleared upward of
81 OcO 600 on September options during the recent
bulge Most of the big traders bought September
wheat months ago when the option could be had
as low as 64c AT each bulge there was some
realizing though few of the traders still hold
the bulk of their contracts. Ex-Secretary OF the
Interior d. r. Francis one of those who
preferred to sell and take profits. Sales in the
last three days, it is said, have netted him
S300 COO.
The market is now so strong and so far above
tie low point that traders on the bull side are
certain of their profits, though those who have
not already realized cannot determine the exact
amount of the winnings. New records were made
in both the September and December options to-
day. September reaehsd 95l4c, The highest quota
ton since 1891, and December sold as high as
CSC the years record. a decline set in before
the close which IVES fractions below the top

Preparations For the state COnven-
ton Next Month.

The next annual meeting of the State
Horticultural Society will be held in Sa-
vannah, Aug. T. and 6. The meetings
will be held at the De Solo, while an ex-
hibition of fruits. flowers, plants and veg
etables will be made at the Guards hall.
DR.. j. c. LeHardy, who Is the vice pres
ident of the society for the First con-
gressional district, is making every eff
fort to secure a creditable exhibition of
the horticultural products of this section
as well as for the success of the meeting
in every way.
The horticultural society, while not
large society. is one of the most import
ant in the state. including in it's mem
bership men who have made life study
Of the growth Of flowers, fruits and plants
peculiar to this section, and some of
whom are distinguished far beyond the
boundaries of the state. The members Of
this society and the society itself has
accomplished great good for the state in
calling attention to and securing the de-
velopment Of its resources in horticultural
lines. This is less evident In this portion
of the state than in other sections where
fruit growing has become a special bust
ness, upon which large numbers of people
depend wholly or partially for their sup
port.
The officers of the society are p. ].
Berckmans of Augusta, president; L. A.
Berckmans of Augusta, treasurer, and G.
II. Miller of Rome, secretary. The fol-
lowing papers will be presented at the

the society and requesting the co-opera-
ton of all interested in horticulture and
the citizens of Savannah generally in maxi
ing the meeting a success. Wherever the
society has held its annual meetings in the
past its members have been given a most
hospitable reception by the people of that
section and the displays of fruits, flowers
and plants at these meetings are always
very fine. 1t will not do for Savannah to
be behind other cities where the society
