Crop and Market Notes— Continued. 
Supplies of Southern vegetables are liberal, but 
prices are well sustained 
The wholesale markets are dull owing to the holi¬ 
day and the goings on Incident to the naval and 
other parades occurring during the week. It seems 
a little strange, with the city crowded with vis¬ 
itors, and with the demand for provisions largely 
Increased, that this should be so, but It Is always the 
case. A holiday upsets trade. 
As was remarked In this column last week, butter 
is a slippery customer. Since our last report, It has 
been away up, extra creamery selling for as high as 
38 cents, and other grades In proportion. Then It 
dropped to nearly the former figure, and again made 
a slight advance. Sales at these prices are, how¬ 
ever, In small lots, as buyers stock up only to supply 
present needs. Large lots would have to go for 
lower prices The Elgin market Is also high, and re¬ 
ports indicate a light supply in the producing dis¬ 
tricts. 
Reports from all parts of California Indicate boun¬ 
tiful crops. In the San Joaquin Valley the wheat crop 
will be unprecedented. Rains have been generous 
and timely and a larger acreage than ever before 
was sown. From the Sacramento Valley reports are 
not so favorable. It is estimated that there will be 
only half an average crop this year on account of 
continued cold and rainy weather and a smaller 
acre age. In southern California a large yield of grain 
is expected. Fruits In all parts of the State are 
doing well except apricots, which will fall far short 
of an average crop. 
The Utica Herald says that It will be found that 
the frost of the severe winter has brought disaster 
to many hop yards In Oneida and Madison Counties. 
One correspondent having 15 or 20 acres reports 
finding an average of every fifth hill absolutely 
dead as the result of frost. The roots were as dry 
as a piece of brown paper. In 2)4 acres as many 
dead hills were found as were found In any previous 
year in 15 acres. The ground froze during the past 
winter before much snow came, to a depth of three 
and four feet. What snow subsequently fell was 
blown off by the high winds, and the fields have been 
practically bare and were particularly so during the 
long month when the mercury fluctuated between 8 
above and 10 below zero. The hop crop, It Is feared, 
will be sho.4*t ext harvest.
