Ohio—and every other State for that 
matter. They were made friends by the 
“ wildness ” they have found in the 
paper. By the way, we neglected to 
name the dollar prize-winners last week. 
Here is a list of the last 12 winners : 
Dec. 2.—E. D. Frost, Schuyler Co., N. Y. 
3. —J. Q. Herman, Ontario Co., N. Y. 
4. —F. E. Van Eps, Ontario Co., N. Y. 
5. —Wm. D. Dyer, Ontario Co., Ont. 
6. —F. W. Heyer, Monmouth Co., N. J. 
7. —F. E. Van Eps, Ontario Co., N. Y. 
9.—F. H. Frink, Steuben Co., N. Y. 
10. —A. H. Root, Madison Co., N. Y. 
11. —Jno. M. Friedhaber, Venango Co., Pa. 
12. —W. S. Graves, Lackawanna Co., Pa. 
13. —W. S. Graves, Lackawanna Co., Pa. 
14. —W. S. Moore, Chenango Co., N. Y. 
And now, I think that we might as well 
close with this letter : 
I have been taking The R. N. - Y. for some years, 
and you can count on me as a life subscriber. 
But I am taking it in my son’s name, thinking it 
more inducement to the boys to read their own 
papers, than some one’s else. While we are tak¬ 
ing six agricultural and horticultural papers, 
there’s always a skirmish for The R. N.-Y., when 
it comes to hand. It’s a fertilizer of high grade, 
and will produce the crops, if applied, a. w. H. 
Stevensville, Mich. 
All right—let’s apply it where needed. 
CROP AND MARKET NOTES. 
Prices of dry beans are still sliding downward. 
Best grades of butter still show an upward 
tendency. 
Live chickens have been selling for as low as 
five cents per pound, and it was impossible to 
clean up the market at that. 
The market for beans has been so dull, and 
prices so low, that some imported lots have been 
returned to Europe, and it is said that others will 
be soon. 
At the recent meeting of the Indiana Horticul¬ 
tural Society, Prof. James Troop, of Purdue 
University, LaFayette, was elected secretary, in 
place of W. H. Ragan, who is unable to continue 
the work longer on account of ill health. 
The 21st annual meeting of the New Jersey 
Horticultural Society will be held in Trenton, 
January 2 and 3. All who are interested in the 
objects of the society are invited to attend and 
take part in the proceedings. All agricultural 
and horticultural societies are invited to send 
delegates. Samples of fruits, flowers and vege¬ 
tables are solicited. Henry I. Budd, secretary, 
Mount Holly. 
At the annual meeting of the Wallkill Valley 
Farmers’ Association, held at Walden, December 
7, the following officers for 1896, were elected : 
President, Joseph B. Hadden, Walden; Vice-Presi¬ 
dent, John D. Mould, Montgomery ; Treasurer, 
Nicholas J. Fowler Walden; Secretary, William 
C. Hart, Walden. The association have decided 
to issue an elegant souvenir for the ensuing year, 
to be profusely illustrated with scenes of local 
interest. 
It is said that the foot and mouth disease is 
quite prevalent in the State of Sao Paulo, Brazil, 
and that many hides are shipped to this country 
from that part of the country. The wide range 
covered by the disease and the difficulty of apply¬ 
ing any effective means of extirpation among the 
cattle ranches of southern Brazil, render the 
likelihood of its spread throughout Uruguay and 
Paraguay to the Argentine Republic extremely 
probable. 
For the Pittsburgh market, Somers, Brother & 
Co., say that, to grade with the best, potatoes 
must be not only sound, unwormy and clean, but 
varieties must be closely separated and all small 
potatoes thrown out. It pays much better to offer 
and sell small potatoes as such, than to try to 
work them off with large, good potatoes ; as, 
mixed together, the whole usually sell down near 
the value of the less meritorious sort. Early 
shipments should be made in well-ventilated full 
11 to 12-peck barrels, double headed or burlap 
covered, the potatoes filled well up above the rim, 
shaken down and pressed (in double heads) much 
the same as in packing apples, and rounded up 
in burlap-covered barrels. Slack filling and mix¬ 
tures of varieties and grades are serious impedi¬ 
ments to satisfactory sales. Late in the season, 
after potatoes are ripened, they are preferred in 
sacks and bulk; bulk cars may be sacked or bar¬ 
reled at their city, if necessary, at an expense 
seldom greater than the work would cost at point 
of shipment ; but ordinarily sales are made on 
track, without barreling or sacking. In loading 
sacked or bulk cars, the same suggestions in 
reference to culling and separating varieties 
should be carefully observed. Barrels and sacks 
should always be stenciled, and the name of the 
potato appear on tags attached to each sack, and 
in red or black lead on each barrel. Stencils on 
sacks insure their return to owners.

CONDENSED CORRESPONDENCE. 
Ohio Horticultural Society. —The annual 
meeting of the Ohio State Horticultural Society 
was held at Canton, December 4 and 5. There 
was a good attendance from abroad, but not a 
large local one, probably owing to the rough con¬ 
dition of the roads and weather. The reports of 
the Ad Interim Committee showed a very check¬ 
ered experience with discouragements of almost 
every kind, the most damage being assigned to 
frost and drought. All but one, I think, said that 
it was a very unprofitable season. As a rule, the 
prospects for tree fruits the coming year are good. 
Small fruits are not flattering. Besides the corps 
of speakers from our State, we had Prof. L. H. 
Bailey, of Cornell, who gave us a good lecture on 
the “ Management of Orchards,” and in the even¬ 
ing an illustrated lecture on landscape garden¬ 
ing, both of which were highly entertaining and 
instructive. He advised us to begin at the founda¬ 
tion, and be thorough. Prof. Aug. Selby, of Woos¬ 
ter, had a paper on the “Brown or Pustular Spot 
of the Peach,” a disease new to me, and which 
seems to be a very undesirable addition to the 
many foes of fine peaches. Among the new fruits 
to which attention was called, was an apple 
which began to ripen in July, at which time there 
would be apples from the size of marbles up to 
a fair-sized fruit, in various stages of ripening; 
these would keep ou maturing until October, 
when wbat was left could be picked and stored 
for winter use, and would keep well till the next 
spring. Mr. Green, of W ooster, said that it seemed 
strange that, of the new varieties of berries origi¬ 
nated and introduced at the same time, so many 
should prove so nearly identical. There was quite 
a display of apples and potatoes, with a few 
pears. One thing was very noticeable, the differ¬ 
ence between the same varieties of fruits grown 
in different localities and soils, that between the 
Ben Davis as grown in Ohio and Missouri being 
the greater; while in Ohio they can be grown only 
to a medium size, there they attain the size of our 
Fallawaters. From the specimens we saw, it im¬ 
pressed the idea more firmly upon us that it is 
best to plant most heavily of fruits tried in the 
immediate vicinity under like conditions.
