Some  surplus  and  selling  slowly,  except 
when  fancy.  Pork  brings  mainly  9  to  12 
cents,  according  to  quality.  Choice  rab-

Hence  being  medium  or  lower  grades.

FRESH  FRUITS. 
Cold  weather  early  in  the  week  hin¬ 
dered  the  apple  movement,  but  it  mod¬ 
erated  later,  and  a  normal  business  was 
done  the  remainder  of  the  week.  Choice 
barrelled  apples  continue  high,  in  some 
cases  better  than  $4.  Medium  to  good 
grades  run  mainly  under  $8.50,  and  culls 
at  whatever  they  will  bring.  Too  many 
low  grades  have  been  held.  This  may  pay 
when  apples  a  re  very  scarce,  but  in  the 
great  majority  of  cases  the  time  to  dis¬ 
pose  of  low  grades  is  in  Fall.  Straw¬ 
berries  more  plentiful,  but  selling  well, 
good  usually  bringing  25  cents  and  fancy

places  wheat  at  223,000,000  bushels,  and 
corn  at  1. 190,000, 000,  more  than  200,-

double  cylinders  insure  thorough  pulverization.  Our  patented  steel  re¬ 
volving  distributor  spreads  it  7  ft.,  across  three  corn  rows.  The  spread  goes 
beyond  the  wagon  tracks  so  you  do  not  have  to  drive  over  spread  manure.
