THE RURAL NEW-YORKER 
657 
CROP AND MARKET NOTES. 
Honey is in light supply. 
Butter is making some advances. 
There is a scarcity of good Lima beans. 
Receipts of eggs are large for this time of year. 
Beeswax 27 to 29 cents per pound, but demand 
light. 
Cranberries are in large supply and low in 
price. 
Wool is firm, and there is a prospect for higher 
prices. 
Last week’s sales of California fruit reached 48 
car-loads. 
Prime maple sugar scarce at eight to nine cents 
per pound. 
Fresh figs have arrived in small quantities from 
North Carolina. 
A few hickory nuts have arrived, but there is 
as yet no demand. 
Potatoes seem to be about to the bottom so far 
as price is concerned. 
Fancy pears are more in demand, .and the price 
has materially improved. 
Prime new evaporated apples have sold for as 
low as five cents per pound. 
The pack of canned peaches is reported light 
owing to the high prices of fresh fruit. 
Cranberries from Denmark are usually received 
here in small quantities late in the season. 
Chestnuts usually arrive before this, but at the 
time of going to press, no arrivals are reported. 
There has been a great scarcity of good white 
peaches, even when yellow ones were fairly 
plentiful. 
The growth of late summer weeds in the Chau¬ 
tauqua vineyards this year, is said to be some¬ 
thing unusual. 
The wheat pits in several Duluth elevators 
were flooded by a recent storm, and operations 
were suspended. 
The market is weak for dressed poultry; re¬ 
ceipts are liberal, and there is considerable ac¬ 
cumulation of stock. 
Fancy Siberian crab apples have sold for $3.50 
to $4 per barrel, but many of those in market are 
too large to suit buyers. 
There is no improvement in the hop situation, 
and so far as can be seen, there is little hope of 
any material improvement. 
Grapes are selling at prices that lead one to 
think that there was not so much of a failure as 
was reported early in the season. 
Florida oranges will be a comparatively un¬ 
known quantity in the markets this year. Con¬ 
siderable quantities are expected from Mexico. 
And now John Bull threatens to make more 
trouble for exporters of American cattle. Still 
our beef cattle business seems to be in a fairly 
prosperous condition. 
Sweet potatoes are arriving from New Jersey, 
and the first arrivals brought about $2.50 per 
double-headed barrel. A price materially higher 
than that of Virginia sweets. 
Denmark, Sweden, Great Britian and Ireland. 
From England sheep for breeding purposes may 
be imported if special permission be obtained 
America.—The importation of cattle and fresh 
beef is prohibited. The provisional presidents of 
the German government may order horses and 
sheep imported from the United States of America, 
to be held at the landing place for observation 
and inspection. Pork imported from the United 
States must be accompanied by a Government 
certificate of inspection. 
According to the last weekly crop report of the 
Government Weather Bureau, fall seeding has 
progressed favorably in the States of the Ohio 
and central Mississippi valleys, but from the 
Dakotas eastward to Michigan and in the middle 
Atlantic States plowing and seeding have been 
retarded, owing to the dry condition of the soil. 
New York is the leading State in hpy produc¬ 
tion. In 1893, 5,885,652 acres were devoted to hay, 
from which 7,298,208 tons were produced, having 
a farm value of $82,688,697. In 1894 the area was 
5,297,087 acres, showing a decrease of 588,565 acres, 
while the number of tons harvested was 6,197,592, 
a decrease of 100,616 tons, the farm value of which 
was estimated by the Department of Agriculture 
to be $59,868,739, a falling off of $22,819,958. 
Reports from the principal onion growing dis¬ 
tricts in the country, indicate that the crop is at 
least 25 per cent larger than that of last year. 
This year, the crop in New York and New Eng¬ 
land is a good one, just the reverse of last year, 
while conditions in Ohio are also reversed, the 
crop being a short one this year—a good one last. 
The country’s crop is the largest since 1891, and 
the outlook for high prices is not very favorable. 
A New Jersey law which went into effect Septem¬ 
ber 1 , provides that a bale of hay or straw weigh¬ 
ing 200 pounds or over, shall not have on it more 
than 10 pounds of wood; a bale weighing less 
than 200 pounds, not more than five pounds of 
wood. Also that the gross weight of hay or 
straw shall be marked on each bale, and that no 
person shall put into any bale, “ any wet or 
damaged hay or straw, dirt or stones, wood or 
other material, for the purpose of increasing the 
weight of any such bale.” Any offender is liable 
to $250 fine, or imprisonment at hard labor for six 
months, or both. 
Severe frosts visited many parts of the country 
September 15. Through a larger part of New 
York State, late crops of vegetables and fruits, 
and corn, suffered severely. Cape Cod cranberry 
growers report considerable damage where the 
bogs could not be flooded. Throughout parts of 
Pennsylvania, unmatured crops were badly dam¬ 
aged. In northern New Jersey more or less dam¬ 
age was done, varying with the location. At the 
Rural Grounds, corn, tomatoes, squashes, etc., 
were badly damaged. The weather succeeding 
has been mild and favorable for the ripening of 
uninjured crops._

A car of yellow onions from Ohio, was barreled 
and sold at $1.12 to $1.25 per barrel. There isn’t 
much money for anybody in onions at present 
prices and higher prices don’t seem very probable. 
The live poultry trade has been heavy, but ar¬ 
rivals have been so large that prices did not reach 
a very high figure. Poultry arriving too late for 
the Hebrew New Year market, had to be carried 
over or sold for what it would bring. 
A committee from the Wholesale Milk Dealers’ 
Association recently held a conference with the 
Justices of Special Sessions in this city, with 
reference to the matter of pure milk, and the 
enforcement of the law against adulteration and 
dilution of milk. 
The New York State Board of Health at a re¬ 
cent session in this city, listened to a report by 
Dr. Donohue on tuberculosis in cattle. He stated 
that, of 298 cattle examined, 104 were killed, and 
that dairymen were making vigorous efforts to 
stamp out the disease. 
Exports of butter and cheese have fallen off 
largely from this country, and have increased 
from Canada. The reason is simply that the 
quality of our dairy products, especially cheese, 
has deteriorated, while Carada is constantly 
striving to improve the quality. 
In most of the canning districts, the tomato 
crop was only about half the acreage of last year, 
and the yield only about half as heavy. But as 
the amount of stock carried over was very heavy, 
this shortage is not likely to affect the market to 
the extent that it would under different condi¬ 
tions. 
Secretary Morton’s order of August 28, ordering 
all horse meat exported from the United States, 
to be packed in barrels and plainly labeled, and 
also requiring a certificate to accompany all beef 
offered for transportation, has been modified so 
as to take effect October 16 and not September 16, 
as originally provided. 
Following are the regulations in force in the 
German Empire in relation to the importation of 
meats and animals from different countries : 
Russia and Austria-Hungary.—The importation 
of cattle, sheep, hogs and goats, also fresh beef, 
mutton and goat meat is prohibited. Roumania, 
Servia and Bulgaria.—The importation of hogs, 
goats and fresh mutton is prohibited; also, that 
of fresh beef from Roumania. Italy.—The impor¬ 
tation of cattle, sheep, hogs and goats from Italy 
and allied States is prohibited; also cattle and 
hogs imported into Italy from France, Belgium)
