oped in the wheat market today after
an early decline that resulted from
lower quotations at Liverpool and from
favorable weather for the domestic
crop. Buying on the part of houses
with seaboard connections was respon-
sible for the rally. Opening prices,
which ranged from Il c to sc lower,
with July at 1922 to 1928 and Sep
TENDER at 1.04A to l04@s were fol-
lowed by an upturn 10 well above yes
terday's finish.
Estimates that the acreage in Can
ada was 1872 per cent less than last
year tended to lift prices further and
so. too did word that Oklahoma was
not selling any new wheat in Kansas
Corn swayed with wheat The
weather was against the bulls but sell
ing was only of a scattered sort After
opening tx to &c lower, the market
recovered the losses and scored some
gains.
There was said to be good dornes-

plans for the next two years were
talked over and pledges covering that
period received. Members OF the com
mittee have put together certain sta
tistics which they are presenting to
the Commercial club members in the
form of a notice. 1t shows the bene-
fits of conventions and the money they
bring into a city. The circular says:
The experience of years in cities
which have made speciality OF secur-
ing conventions, has demonstrated that
every convention visitor in a city of
this size spends minimum of $500 a
day. This covers hotel room, meals
and incidental purchases. A conven-
ton with 100 in attendance leaves at
least $500 day in the community; a
convention with 1000 visitors is worth
at least $4,000 a day. 1t makes no DIFF
ference what your particular line of
business may be, you are certain to get
some of the money"
The committee also endorses the
automatically self renewing conven-
ton fund plan which was inaugurated
on trial basis in Davenport one year
ago and has operated satisfactorily
