CHICAGO, Sept. 11.--Newspapers
are inclined to print bullish wheat
opinions. This is significant.
| am bullish on wheat up to $1.00
for December and around S1.05 for
May.
On current conditions the arrival
of these levels should not be long
delayed.
A break of 1 to 1s cents cleans up
most Of the scalping wheat in mar
ket of this class.
The men who figure world wheat
shortage cannot be contradicted until
end of crop year.
Another week of break buy condi-
tons.
Weekly weather forecast contains
no sensational news.
Very much provision gossip that is
conservative on entire product list
Bulge selling possible for moment.

It is believed that Birmingham's downtown section will be gleaming with the lights of enc Great White Way before the holidays, as the castings of the first lot of posts were made yes terday at the Union foundry, Annis- ton, and the weekly output will aver age 23 standards. Girard Schumacher, general manager of the Union Foundry company, returned to this city yester- day and spent the day in completing the list of signatures for First and Second avenues between Nineteenth, Twentieth and below Seventeenth streets on lower Third avenue. The work of signing up the merchants along the streets will begin soon and early next week the final arrange ments for upper Second avenue. leading to the Terminal station, are expected to be made.
 The following list shows those along First and Second avenues who signed yesterday for the Great White Way: Pastime theatre 25 feet; Shop of Qual- ity, 25 feet; Jacobs Pharmacy, 25. feet; w. o. Snider, 121s feet; Feeder & Berk,

GREAT DISPLAYS
 OF AGRICULTURE L. Exhibits at Fair Said to Be the Best Ever Seen in
 the South

The agricultural exhibits at the fair, state, county and individual, are the best ever seen in the south, it is claimed This department has been the constant recipient of high praise not only from the country visitors but from the city folks as well. While the staple crops predominate there is a wonderful display of fruits and vegetables that rival the products of balmy California and the land of perpetual sunshine Florida. Fn
 The state exhibit is "a thing of beau ty, if not "a joy forever" and reflects great credit on the state department or agriculture, headed by Captain Kolb. The display of corn, cotton and cereals shows unmistakably the wonderful pos abilities of this state and the surpris- ing results from scientific farming.
 The Jefferson county exhibit is a revelation to many people of the coun- ty who are surprised to see such fino display of agricultural products grown right at their doors.
 Cullman county captured the first premium in the county exhibits, while Madison, Baldwin, Shelby and Marion came in the order named. The other counties represented were Blount, Chil- ton, Escambia, Conecuh, Coosa and Jefferson, all of which had splendid exhibits. A special prize was awarded Jefferson county for the diversified nature of the exhibit.

 . VISITS STATE FAIR
Prominent Tennessee. Man Says He Has Nexer Seen an Exposition
 to Equal It

Cyrus Garnsey, Jr., vice president and general manager of the. Galloway Coal company, and one of the best known men in Tennessee, was here yesterday. He looked in at the local offices, talked coal business for while and then went to the State Fair. The genial coal mer- chant bought everything from tick ler,' made of attractive red feathers, to q handful of dog short name for a kind of sandwich With D. F. McDon- ough of the Frisco the Memphis visitor looked over the exhibits in general way, and then said that of all the big things he had ever seen the fair was the big gest.
 "I thought I knew little about Ala bama,'' said Mir. Garnsey. However, the agricultural displays here, indicating a great reserve wealth, convince me that the greatest future of this state lies in her agricultural improvement. I have been to many fairs, and I want to say that the one here is the greatest l have ever seen. The mineral resources of the state have long been accounted it's greatest asset but to my mind the state is far richer in agricultural products. The fair is in every way most satisfac- tory. I have never seen a more orderly crowd. And when you take into consid- eration that about 45,000 persons were there yesterday the fact that they were kept in order is remarkable I am com ing to the next fair if possible

Cotton Seed Cutler

To tho Editor of The Age-Herald:
 Among the many objects of attraction at the fair, and one which has won at tention, is tine recent Alabama invention, the Bowers & Franklin cotton seed cutler. The almost magical work done by this machine, under the direction of MT. G. D. Floyd. is an object of wonder. It culls the heavy and healthy seed from the light and dwarfish ones, and gives to the planter only the best seed to plant.
 I learn that the machine, which has Teen used for four seasons by parties throughout the south, is producing a rev olution, not alone in the production of the staple, but in it's improved quality. The results have been an increase rang ing from 9 to 100 per cent. This has been done not in one year alone, but for four seasons.
 to work as great a revolution in cotton as the gin itself. When 1t shall come to be known and used the cutler will prove to be a public benefaction.
 learn that the firm has opened an of fee at 5l5 Empire building in this city, and is every day manufacturing and south. This being an Alabama invention, and on exhibition for the first time at the State Fair. I thought it might be ar object of interest to the general pub lic. It is accomplishing such wonders in ton of cotton that I am sure that many will be interested in learning of the cutler.

PROMINENT ALABAMIANS
 IN BIRMINGHAM YESTERDAY

Senator John Fl. Bankhead visited Bir- mingham yesterday and saw the State Fair. He was very reticent in talking national politics. He believes, however, that the democrats have aan excellent chance of winning the election. He be- leves. too, that they will have to defeat President Taft.
 "The democrats will make no mistake in centerng their strength on Underwood,' stated the senator. He has shown his worth, and in every section he enjoys the confidence of the people,"
 E. B. F'ite, who represents Colbert, Franklin and Marion counties in the sen ate of the state legislature, is a visitog to the Fair. Another state senator who is spending the day in the city is Watt T. Brown of Ragland.

YOUNG PRISONER g..
 ATTEMPTS SUICIDE
w. A. Dixon Claimed to Have Made Two Unsuccessful Attempts
 in County Jail

W. A. Dixon, a young white man 24 years of age is said to have recently made two unsuccessful attempts to take his own life while incarcerated in the county jail on a charge of grand larceny
 Friday, while in the courtroom before Judge Callahan, he stepped to the water cooler and took drink of water, after which, with a cry. he fell to the floor. He was carried into an adjoining room, where he was resuscitated. It is said that this was an attack of his heart.
 It is claimed that twice he has tried to hang himself In jail. Thursday afternoon he was discovered by his cellmates to be hanging to the bars of the cell with a rope, made from blanket around his neck, and was in an unconscious condi- tion. He was cut down by his mates, who revived him. He made another unsuc- cessful attempt Thursday night.
