business would call the meat by Its proper name, who 
could object ? 
A Monroe County, N. Y., man saw millions in the 
potato market last fall, so he purchased 3,000 bushels 
at 75 cents per bushel, and has been sitting up nights 
this spring to hgure up his protits. 
A small black bug never betore seen by the farm¬ 
ers is reported as destroying tne corn crop In south¬ 
ern Chester County, Pa., and in Cecil County, Md. 
The nug eats the stalk clean to the roots. 
Exports of cheese are Increasing slightly, and the 
market remains Orm under moderate receipts. Full- 
cream colored are given tne preference over white. 
The Liverpool market Is reported as steady. 
I he fruit boats that have been running directly 
between the West indies and Montreal are likely to 
be withdrawn, as tne route has not paid. The boats 
will run to New York and Boston in future. 
The French crop reports are unfavorable. The 
protracted drought has seriously Injured wheat, even 
in the best districts. The oat crop prospect is very 
poor, while tne forage crops are almost an entire 
failure. 
Eggs are firmer and higher. One reason Is that 
large quantities have been put Into cold storage, 
and offerings are less liberal. The Boston market is 
reported steady at lti cents, Philadelphia the same, 
and Chicago 1394 cents. 
ltecelpts of apples are rather higher than one 
would expect at this season. On Thursday 1 , 4 S 7 
barrels were received. Notwithstanding the large 
receipts and the quantities of other fruits, prices are 
well sustained, and the market is firm for choice 
stock. 
Texas strawberry growers are already making ar¬ 
rangements for the more rapid transportation of 
their product to Northern markets next year. They 
purpose snipping to Chicago, Denver and other 
Northern cities on express time. 
Butter has taken quite a drop on all grades. This 
was, of course, to be expected, yet receipts are not 
heavy, and much lower prices in tne near future are 
not prooaule. Best creamery sold for June and July 
delivery at 1814 to 18*14 cents. Tne Boston market is 
a trifle higher than the New York; Philadelphia and 
Chicago about the same, and Elgin a little lower. 
It Is reported from California that the Los Angeles 
branch of one of the Chicago meat packers have in¬ 
timated that they are willing to enter into a contract 
with responsible parties to take all the hogs they will 
furnish lor the next three years at nve cents a 
pound, delivered In Los Angeles, and possibly 7)4 
cents for good, fat grain nogs weighing 200 pounds or 
over. 
A Maine man has been convicted of smuggling po¬ 
tatoes from New Brunswick, thereby defrauding the 
United States revenue of many tnousands in a year. 
Just before his arrest he had completed a building 
directly on the border line between Maine and New 
Brunswick, one-half of tne house being on each Bide, 
and within a week had placed *5,000 worth of stock 
there. 
The American Association of N urserymen will hold 
Its annual convention In Chicago beginning June 7. 
The programme Insures a profitable and Interesting 
session, and includes such well-known names as 11 . 
K. Van Deman, Parker Earle, T. V. Munson Geo. W. 
Campbell, Th js. Meehan, P. J. Beickmans and many 
others. The topics to he treated are timely and 
practical. 
The Winter Wneat Millers' League of America 
held its flrst annual session at Toledo, O., this week 
with about 100 members, from Ohio. Michigan, In¬ 
diana, Illinois and Kentucky. It is not a trust or 
combine to regulate prices or output, but an organi¬ 
sation to work for an extension of tne foreign mar¬ 
ket for American flour, so that the one-tmrd of the 
crop now exported as wheat shall be sent as flour. 
A full crop of peaches In Hunterdon County, N J., 
Is put at 1,500,000 baskets, but It Is expected that that 
number will be exceeded this year. Two hundred 
and ninety replies out of 300 inquiries sent out to the 
largest peaoh growers in that section regarding the 
prospects for this year's crop substantially report that 
the prospects for an Immense crop are good. Tne 
cold spring weather retarded the growth of peach 
buds until the late frosts were over. 
The Department of Agriculture has received ad¬ 
vices from Copenhagen to the effect that a large 
Importer of food products in that city, has sent an 
order to the United States for a considerable con¬ 
signment of California canned and preserved fruits. 
This, the Department is Informed, is one of imme¬ 
diate results of the recent corn banquet given by tne 
agent of the Agricultural Department at Copen¬ 
hagen, at which the only fruits offered, such as 
raisins, ngs, etc., were the products of California. 
The Kansas millers are buying wheat for July and 
Uecemoer delivery in Kansas City. They are look- 
forward to the possibility of having to ship wheat 
into Kansas to keep their mills going. The fact that 
they are doing this emphasizes the seriousness of 
the crop damage In Kansas. It is possible that the 
! " tate may produce enough wheat to supply home 
demands. That Is by no means certain. The esti¬ 
mates of the crop now range from 15,000,090 to 25,000, - 
bui *hel 8 , with a few sanguine people still hoping 
that 35.000,000 may be raised. The Kansas mills have 
a capacity of grinding 20 , 000,000 bushels of wheat 
s« fl 11 ri l JnL ly ’ and the requirements of the State for 
seeding are about 5,0 jO,oU 0 bushels, so that If the crop
