comparatively small factor, is very much be¬ 
low an average. Michigan and Indiana return 
03, Illinois only 28, and Iowa 88. On the Pa¬ 
cific coast. California reports a small crop of 
good quality, while Oregon and Washington 
expect an outturn but slightly below an aver¬ 
age. Last week the receipts in Chicago ag¬ 
gregated about 200,000 baskets, all sold at from 
35 to 75 cents per full peck basket, according 
to size and quality, Oldmixons brought $1. 
Almost all came from Mich. 
The cranberry harvest has been at its bight 
during the week. In tho great cranberry sec¬ 
tion of New Jersey the crop is good—consider¬ 
ably better than last year. Owing to the de¬ 
struction of many of the bogs by the recent 
forest fires, the Wisconsin crop is greatly di¬ 
minished—probable yield not over 600,000 
bushels against 900,000 bushels in 1885. Much 
of the crop last year sold for less than cost, 
and 150,000 bushels could not find a market. 
Considerable quantities were sent to England 
at a loss, as people there have not yet been 
tanght how to use the tarries. A considerable 
area of bog was also destroyed by fire in Miehi- 
igan. Berries are now selling for 25 cents a 
quart in Chicago, 
The Louisiana orange crop is usually mar¬ 
keted about this time. Reports from Cal¬ 
casieu, St. Bernard, St. Mary, Cameron, La 
Fourche and other parishes in which the or¬ 
anges are principally grown, report tliat the 
crop is a complete failure this year. It usual¬ 
ly averages from 30,000,000 to 50,000,000 a 
year, but will not be 1,000,000 this year in 
consequence of the severe freeze last Winter. 
The news is uniformly bad from every por¬ 
tion of the State. In some places where 500 
barrels were obtained last year, scarcely a 
barrel will be secured. 
The clover seed crop varies greatly from 
year to year. This year the total area appears 
a little larger than last year, with an average 
yield and a promise of about a full crop. In 
1870 the United States produced 1,022,1)82 
bushels, nino-teuths of which was grown in 
seven States in this order: O., Mieh., Wis., 
Ind., N. Y. t Pa. and Ill. Yield per acre this 
year 180 to 140 pounds. Some pieces yield 
only one bushel (00 pounds) per acre, and only 
a few go over three bushels. Prices range 
from $4.25 to $8.75 per bushel, a fair estimate 
being about 45.50. In parts of N. Y., Pa. and 
Wis., the clover seed midge and clover wee¬ 
vil have greatly injured or entirely ruined the 
crop. Grasshoppers have been troublesome 
in O., Ind., Ia.. and Mo. Drought has caused 
a great reduction in area and yield in Mieh. 
and la., and to a smaller extent in Wis., 
Minn, and Mo. Area iu N. Y., 20 per cent, 
less than last year; yield, 120 pounds 
per acre: price, $ti to $0.25. Pa., area 10per 
cent, greater; yield, 10 per cent, less than a 
lull crop; price. $5.75 to $0; yield per acre, 100 
to 105 pounds. Large increase of area in Md. 
yield, 1)5 pounds per acre; average price, $0 
per bushel. Virginia, larger area: 1.8 bush, 
per acre; 85.75 per bush. Full crop on 20 per 
cent, larger area in O.: '■!}-£ bush, per acre. 
In Mich., 25 percent, smaller area; 95 pounds 
per acre; average price, 85.63 to $5.75 per 
bush. I ml., 25 per cent, more area; nearly 
bush, per acre; average price, $4.75. Best crop 
ever harvested in one of the largest producing 
States. Decreased area in ill.; yield, 137 
pounds per acre; $5.25 per bosh. Wis., 80 
per cent, of a full crop on a somewhat reduced 
area; $5.75 per bush, la., area reduced80 per¬ 
cent. ; yield, 35 to 40 per cent, less than a full 
crop; average price, $5,50 per bush, Mo., 75 
per cent, of a full crop; area increased; yield, 
2bush, per acre: $1.25 per bush. 
According to the census of 1880 the area de¬ 
voted to hops iu 1870 was 40,800 acres—pro¬ 
duct 20.540,S7S pounds. New York had 30,- 
072 acres ami produced 2L,028,931 pounds; 
Wisconsin, 1,43(1 acres; 1,906,812 poimds; Cal¬ 
ifornia, 4,119 acres; 1,444,077 pounds; Ore¬ 
gon, 304 acres; 244,371 pounds. About half 
the other States grew a little; but their whole 
product would make little difference in tho 
aggregate crop. The yards on the Pacific 
Coast have rapidly increased in size and num¬ 
ber; while there has been a slight fulling off 
iu New York, and still more in Wisconsin. 
On the Pacific Coast the crop this year, while 
much larger than that of 1879, is a trifle less 
than that of last your. In Wisconsin there is 
a fair crop; a trifle less than that of 1885. Re¬ 
ports from every hop-growing county In New 
York apeak of failure, total or partial, and 
the injury to the yards is likely to extend into 
next year, as the roots of the vines are con¬ 
siderably injured. According to commercial 
authorities the crop of the State last year was 
from 150,000 to 175,000 bales of 180 pounds 
each, of superior quality, while estimates of 
the crop of this year range from 5,000 to 15,000 
bales of very inferior quality. Some consider 
two-thirds of the crop unfit for market. Dealers 
give the following comparative list of the yield 
in hops by counties: Schoharie, 1885, 35,000 
bales; 1880,500 bales; Otsego, 1885,40,000 bales; 
1880, 2,000 bales. Oneida and Madison, 1885, 
70,000 bales; 1886, 1,500 bales. Lewis, 1885, 
2,000 bales; 1886, 500 bales. Franklin, 1885, 
20,000 bales; 1886, 1,500 bales. Montgomery, 
1885,36,000 bales; 1880, nothing. Bales vary in 
weight from 180 to 200 pounds. Since theirre- 
parable damage to the new crop has become 
apparent, prices have already risen from five 
to 8}^ cents to 25 to 30 cents per pound, and 
even higher figures have been given at inter¬ 
ior points. A good deal of American hops 
that were sent to Europe on sale have been 
brought home and sold at a profit. The crops 
have been fair in England, Gel-many and 
otber foreign countries, however, and as the 
duty on hops is only eight, cents per pound, it 
is likely that foreign importations will pre¬ 
vent a rise to the extreme figures of some 
years. 
Raw wool is remarkably strong, and prices 
arc again higher, with movement to manu¬ 
facturer heavy. The belief appears general 
that the American clip is short, and Austra¬ 
lian is certainly worth more abroad than it is 
here. ..There is less satisfaction found in the 
tone of the grain market than elsewhere. Re¬ 
ceipts at the Northwest have been very heavy. 
Export demand has beeu checked, and speett ■ 
lation is in favor of lower figures.. .Louisville 
reports a favorable tobacco coop, with prices 
favoring sellers.
