CROP AND MARKET NOTES. 
Fancy apples bring very high prices. 
Potatoes are higher and the demand firm. 
The tendency of bean prices is still upward. 
Pure beeswax is selling for 31 to 32 cents per 
pound. 
Strawberries are in good demand if choice, and 
receipts are increasing. 
Onion prices have advanced with the exception 
of whites which are lower. 
Arrivals of eggs are large, and prices continue 
low. The Easter trade may help matters some¬ 
what. 
Fruit handlers are again agitating the question 
of the general adoption of free non-returnable 
packages. 
The latest London fur sales show an advance in 
the price of some furs, while prices were main¬ 
tained in most cases. 
The maple sugar market is firm, with a good 
demand at six to seven cents per pound for old 
and eight cents for new.

Our seed is from ears io inches long and upwards. On 
forty-acre fields we averaged 140 to 160 bushels per acre. This

We would not have expended 
HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS 
doing galvanizing, for which we made no extra charge, had 
there not been merit in tt. Galvanizing consists in coating the 
strong but most perishable (in thin sheets) metal, steel, with 
the almost indestructible (even when very thin) metals, zinc 
and aluminum. If there were not great merit in galvanizing, 
no one would pay ^ more for galvanized barbed wire or sheet 
iron than ungalvanized costs. If we were making painted 
windmi lls to-d ay, we should furnish an 
8Ft. for $15 
That is a good price for an 8-foot painted windmill, 
WE RUILD FOR THE AGES. WE WOULD NOT SELL 
YOU A POOR, PAINTED WHEEL, NOR ONE MADE OF 
METAL GALVANIZED I1KFOKE BEING PIT TOGETHER, IF 
YOU WOULU PAY US UOUHLE PRICE FOR IT. We build 
the best wo know, and knowing that painted thin sheets are 
practically worthless, we have nothing to do with them. The 
enormous cost of preparing to do galvanizing, and of doing it 
well on a large scale, deters others. SOME RUY GALVANIZED 
SHEETS ANO PUNCH AND SHEAR AND MAKE THEM CP 
^Ml?o!£u V 'i R n WHEELS OR VANES MADE OK GALVANIZED 
SHEETS RUST OUT FIRST AROUND THE RIVETS, JOINT8, 
AND EDGES, AND ARE, THEREFORE, NOT SO GOOD AS 
PAINTE.D ONES. Hour any concern can get our prices for 
painted windmills and painted towers, or those made up of 
galvanized material, cut, sheared and punched after the gal • 
vanizing is done, can only he explained by the fact that people 
who buy them are ignorant of the value of galvanizing. We 
now galvanize everything after it is completed, even bolts and 
nuts. We galvanize with the most improved processes and in 
the most perfect known and attainable manner.
