Crop and Market Notes — Continual. 
Much poor lettuce has been on the market the 
past week. 
A few fancy tangerines from Florida brought 
$10 per box. 
The California prune market is reported firm; 
stocks light. 
Another small shipment of potatoes has been 
received from Germany. 
Considerable quantities of American apples are 
still being sold in England. 
The quantity of low-grade eggs is said to be 
unusually light this season. 
The stock of limed eggs in Canada is reported 
to have been nearly all shipped to England. 
The first shipment of beans to Porto Rico for 
this season, 150 barrels, was sent out last week. 
How many pounds of shelled corn does your 
dealer take for a bushel when he buys your crop? 
The two extremes of prices on Florida string 
beans one day, were $1 and $6 per crate. Small 
profit for the $1 man. 
The market is still glutted with common ouions, 
and with those which have been injured by frost. 
The situation can’t well become worse. 
Shippers have been devoting so much of their 
attention to oranges, that they have neglected 
lemons, receipts being much less than last year. 
Oats in New Jersey and Pennsylvania weigh 
30 pounds per bushel, according to law, while in 
Ohio, Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan, In¬ 
diana and New York, they weigh 32. 
The highest prices of the season have been 
realized during the week for choice Florida vege¬ 
tables, but a large part of the arrivals have been 
utterly worthless, from frost or other causes. 
The United States Circuit Court has decided 
that the Sugar Bounty law was constitutional, 
and that the withholding of the bounty by the 
Comptroller was illegal. The Supreme Court will 
now pass on it, but the decision is likely to be 
the same. 
Of all the grains, wheat is the only one whose 
price is higher than at the same time last year, 
and this not much higher. On some of the grains, 
the reduction is very heavy, for instance, oats 
last year were estimated at 32.9 cents; this year 
at 20.5—that is, the average price on the farm. 
The poultry market has assumed a little better 
shape during the past few days, and prices have 
improved considerably. Unless receipts should 
prove unusually large, prices are likely to aver¬ 
age fair, aud the demand be good. Geese and 
ducks have more of a call than at other times, 
though choice turkeys are always wanted. 
Notwithstanding the extreme shortage cf the 
Florida orange crop, New York is likely to have 
a plentiful supply. California has a large crop 
which is maturing earlier than usual, and is being 
hurried forward. The foreign countries that 
usually send us oranges are increasing their 
shipments, and others which have never been 
known to send the fruit here, to any extent at 
least, are shipping considerable quantities. A 
lot of oranges from Jaffa were sold last week. 
There are now en route to this market from Medi¬ 
terranean ports about 85,000 boxes, against 20,000 
boxes at the same time last year and 8,000 boxes 
for the corresponding period in 1893. 
CONDENSED CORRESPONDENCE. 
Belleville, III.—The fruit crop in southern 
Illinois was one of the largest on record, particu¬ 
larly apples. One must go back to the ’60s to find 
such an abundance of fruit; even the remnants 
of trees, old stumps with half-dead limbs planted 
50 years ago, were loaded with apples. Pears 
were plentiful with not a trace of blight. Peaches 
were an immense crop, which was remarkable 
when we consider that last February 7 the tem¬ 
perature was from 15 to 17 degrees below zero— 
more cold than peach buds can usually stand. 
All varieties did suffer, more or less, from that 
cold night ; but after all, it was a blessing, as 
those kinds that suffered most, had the largest 
peaches and plenty of them. Cherries, strawber¬ 
ries, blackberries and raspberries all suffered 
somewhat from extreme cold in winter and late 
spring frosts; but there were plenty left, as we 
had an abundant crop. Plums were loaded, one 
small limb of Burbank, 18 inches long, bore 100 
plums, and they were not small ones either. I 
am satisfied that the hardier of the Japanese 
plums can endure 17 degrees below zero, and pro¬ 
duce a large crop of fruit, if planted in the right 
place. Native American plums bore such a large 
crop that one could hardly give them away when 
small; fine, large ones retailed at 10 cents a gal¬ 
lon, and retailed for 25 cents a bushel. With 
such an enormous crop of fruit, prices ruled low, 
but fancy, large, well-assorted fruit of all kinds 
brought fair prices at retail: Apples, 50 to 60 
cents a bushel; pears, $1; peaches from $1 to $2 
per bushel; large plums, Japanese and European, 
20 to 25 cents per gallon. We had a dry season 
all through, and all fruits were exceptionally 
•large for such a big crop, and of good quality,

which shows that choice fruit can be raised with 
hardly any rain. Another peculiarity was the 
nearly entire absence of all enemies of horticul¬ 
ture, as scab and the codling moth in apples and 
pears, the curculio and fungous rot in plums, and 
blight of any kind. Here is something for the 
learned professors of agriculture to investigate. 
Was it the dry season, or was it the over-abun¬ 
dance of fruit? u. c. E. 
Hancock County, III.—We have an abundance 
of everything in the way of ci’ops. We need no 
fertilizer, here. In fact, I never saw any fertilizer 
outside of clover. We had the hog cholera, too. 
I lost $200 worth of hogs in 30 days, and I 
finally shot every one that got sick, and cremated 
it. I soon got rid of cholera, and had 100 hogs 
left. Cholera remedies in the way of medicine, 
are all frauds. Thousands of hogs died in this 
part of Illinois. I never took any stock in sick or 
cholera hens. They die every time. w. r. s. 
Newaygo County, Mich.—To what extent are 
potatoes frozen throughout the United States? 
Hereabouts, one-quarter of the crop was frozen 
in the ground before digging. m. u. 
R. N.-Y.—We do not think that any report has 
been made on that point. We judge from general 
reports that, while there has undoubtedly been 
some loss from this cause, the aggregate is not 
large. What say our readers ? 
Cleveland, Tenn. —I came here from New York 
last fall, and have the care of a small herd of 14 
Jersey cows. I am making butter. We sell in 
Atlanta, Ga., all we can make for 30 cents per 
pound the year around. Everything, of course, 
is very different here from New York, but the 
climate is fine. The cows still get all their rough- 
age in the fields. We feed cotton-seed meal, two 
pounds: corn meal, two pounds; bran, three 
pounds; middlings, three pounds per day. All 
feed and milk are weighed. We use a De Laval 
separator. _ s. a. s.
