COURT HOUSE
GROUNDS TO BE
ILLUMINATED
FINISHING TOUCHES BEING
PUT ON WORK IN INSTALLA-
TON OF WHITE WAY SYS-
TEN

The white way for the illumina-
ton of the pretty grounds sur
rounding the county court house
is receiving its finishing touches
this afternoon, and the lights are
expected to be turned on tonight
for the first time.
County Engineer Clifton Bailey
says they will be turned on to-
night if the work is finished in
time, if not the system will be
sure to be in operation tomorrow
night.
This illumination system for
the court house grounds includes
twenty ornamental light posts, six
inside the enclosure and fourteen
on the street sidewalks. The posts
and white globes were furnished
by the Westinghouse Electric
Company, and Ross Roberts is the
installing electrician. The entire
system when completed and in
operation will represent an ex-
penditure of $4,000 on the part
of the county commissioners.
Commissioner Braxton Warren
conceived the idea. of identifying
the court house grounds in Ahis
way, and through his persistent
suggestions the matter was con-
sidered by the board of commits
sioners and definite plans agreed
upon and approved.
A number of people have ex-
pressed surprise that such an ex-
cellent and attractive lighting
system could be secured for the
money involved.

Corn and oats were governed largely
by the action in wheat, corn opening

suffering a decline all around. Higher
prices for hogs gave lift to the pro-

Trading in wheat was exceptionally
light during the first part of the

activity at the start, the July delivery

NEW WHEAT ARRIVES
ON BALTIMORE 'CHANGE

BALTIMORE, June 24.-Eighty
bushels of the first new wheat
from nearby points arrived on the
grain exchange Tuesday. The grain
was grown in the Rappahannock sec
ton of Virginia. While the sample
shown on the exchange exhibited a
clean and well-developed berry, the
wheat was in such excessively damp
condition that 1t could not be sold.
Last year the first arrival Of new
wheat was on June IT and also was
from the Rappannock section of Vir-
ginia. This lot exhibited we'll devel-
oped berry and was slightly damp,
having sold at S1.75 per bushel, but
the general wheat market at this time
year ago was 16 to II cents per
bushel higher than at present.
