THE RURAL NEW-YORKER 
SEPT 28 
Our markets and news departments have 
been crowded out of the paper this week by 
a volume of advertising received too late to 
be used on the cover. The storm of the 
past week has greatly interfered with the 
New York markets, and there is little to 
report in the way of changes. Poultry is 
plenty, eggs are going up in price, grain is 
a little firmer, butter steady with large re¬ 
ceipts, fruits in good demaud. Cattle and 
sheep hold their prices well while hogs are 
barely steady. The storm has seriously in¬ 
jured grapes and other fruits near New 
York. Potatoes are being pushed to mar¬ 
ket. The price promises to De higher later 
in the season. 
He Wants Results. 
“I will not accept your bodiless theories,” 
exclaims the materialist “ I require some¬ 
thing tangible; if you make an assertion 
then support it with acceptable evidence.” 
Very well, then ; how is this for evidence? 
Here are names you may find on the back
