A exit-LOAD—between 60,660 aud 70.600— of 
seedless California oranges arrived here last 
Saturday, and two other car-loads since. 
About 2,000,000 oranges arc to come, all from 
Los Angelas orchards. Very popular, bring¬ 
ing nearly double the price of Florida or¬ 
anges. . ..Of the 37 oleomargarine facto¬ 
ries in this country 11 are in Chicago, and

sale, anil only 88,100 pounds were exported.... 
_Specials from a number of countie..' in 
Ohio indicate that, the wheat crop has been 
badiy frozen out.... Immense damage has

valid. This old swindle is still “booming” in 
some parts of the country .Only a 
single shipment of mutton—one of 100 car¬ 
casses the other day—has been made from 
New York to England since hist May... 
The popular notions wit h respect to the extent 
of the practice of butter adulteration before 
the oleomargarine law went into effect will 
not be sustained by the forthcoming report of 
Professor Wiley, the Chemist of the Depart¬ 
ment of Agriculture. 
According to the Department of Agriculture

A moderate number of hogs are now being 
marketed in the West; the parking returns 
indicate a total of 166.600 for the week, 
against 126,06(1 the preceding week, and 65,000 
for corresponding tin*- last year: total from 
March 1 to date 475,060, against 890,000 last 
year, showing an increase of 85,000 hogs. The 
coming month is not likely to show an in¬ 
crease over corresponding time last year. 
Prices of hogs have been carried to such high 
figures that some packers have curtailed enr- 
rent. operations or closed entirely, on this ac¬ 
count. The range of prices for May product 
at Chicago during the week is us follows; Moss 
pork unchanged at $31.60; lard $7.36 to 
$7.5214, closing at $7.45: short nb sides $7.85 
to $3.27 v., dosing At $8.22/4—showing an ad¬ 
vance of 25 cents on sides compared with a 
week ago, aud 2!J cents on lard. The exports 
of hog product lor the week were light, fall¬ 
ing largely short of corresponding times last 
year in both meats and lard. 
Wheat bus been firmer on clique support 
and unfavorable crop news from winter- wheat 
States aud from California. Advices yester¬ 
day report no signs of rain on the Pacific 
const. The visible supply reported to Brad- 
street.’.s has declined 16,1)00,066 bushels since 
January 1, but is 17,060,000 bushels larger 
than the New York Produce Exchange reports 
for last. Saturday, not including 5 , 000,0011 on 
the Pacific coast. Wheat flour stocks between 
millers and retailers at leading points of pro¬ 
duction and shipment are over 568,000 barrels 
less than one year ago, and 277,666 barrels less 
than ou January 1,1887. Spring wheat seed¬ 
ing has been delayed by the weather. Hog 
products have been dull at Chicago, with 
pork firm but lifeless on the basis of $21 for 
May and June.
