While the Alliance has been pushing it¬ 
self rapidly forward, the Grange has made 
in many States even more rapid though 
qpiet progress. J. M. ’ihompsou, Master 
of the Illinois State Grange, savs that the 
order is increasing rapidly in that State, 
the gain this year promising to be at least 
100 subordinate Granges with an iucrease 
in membership of at least 4,000. 
The House Committee on Education has 
reported favorably the Senate bill to apply 
a portion of the proceeds of the sales of 
public lauds to the support of the agricul¬ 
tural colleges. In a report accompanying 
the bill the committee speaks of the rapid 
growth in the number of pupils attending 
these institutions and the advantages they 
possess . in bringing scienlific education 
within the reach of the masses of the 
people. The committee believes the bill 
to he a measure of the soundest public 
policy and even of good faith with the 
States; that Congress should increase the 
provisions for the maintenance of these 
schools in proportion to the growing de¬ 
mands upon them. The bill appropriates 
to each State and Territory having institu¬ 
tions established, the sum of $15,UU0, to be 
increased each year by the addition of 
$1,000 until $25,000 is reached, and these ap¬ 
propriations are to be made from funds 
arising from the sale of public lands. The 
committee recommends the passage of the 
bill without amendment. 
Recent reports of damage to crops in 
England caused an active demand for 
steamer freight-room. 
The community of Cedarvale, Kansas, is 
very much agitated over a prospective con¬ 
flict on account of foreign cattle being 
brought into the S ale. The Live Stock. 
Protective Association was organized to 
keep out foreign cattle, and they say that 
they will stop at nothing in order to keep 
their cattle protected. A large cattle firm 
recently bought several thousand head of 
Arizona steers with toe intention of running 
them on their pastures near that place, but 
the cattle men have been notitied that the 
first, man who attempts to unload any cattle 
at that place will tie severely handled. Seri¬ 
ous trouble is probable. 
President Harrison has signified his wil¬ 
lingness to be present at Williams Grove on 
Republican Day,August27, and toeulighten 
the farmers present as to the benefits to 
be derived by them lrom a protective 
tariff. 
At Minneapolis, 525 tons of binding twine 
were buined Tuesday. Although the har¬ 
vesting season is well advanced, this will 
prooahly cause a sharp advance tu the price 
of that article, especiady in the Northwest. 
It is estimated that the 525 tons represent 
lrom one half to seven-eighths of the entire 
amount on hand in the Twin Cities, and 
prices will go up from one-half cent to live 
cents a pound. This rise will affect the 
entire country. The trust says twine has 
sold at a loss and this is a sufficient pretext 
lor an advance all along the line. 
Butchers say that they are paying full 
prices for under-quality beef this summer. 
Exportation has used up the bulk of the 
tine stock Eveu the noted Kentucky still- 
fed beef is materially off tms season, and 
Texas drove cattle now coming in show 
their customary lack of fat. 
The Superior Couucil of Agriculture of 
Frauce has approved a proposal of the Tariff 
Commission increasing the duty on live 
oxen 64 francs, on cows 48 francs, and on 
beef lour francs per 100 kilos. 
There was incorporated in Springfield, 
111., recently, the American Woman's Can¬ 
ning Company, at Chicago, to manufacture 
canned and preserved goods. Capital stock, 
$ 100 , 000 . 
Imports of butter and “oleo” into Great 
Britain for the week ending July 5, were 
43,000 cwts. and 16,500 cwts. respectively, 
against 36,420 cwts. and 20,740 cwts. same 
time last year. This shows a large increase 
in butter imports, and a decrease in the 
bogus products. 
A captured Pennsylvania horse thief had 
a memorandum book containing the names

able horses and the number they owned, 
and maps showing every road in Eastern

CROP AND MARKET NOTES. 
Repouts from the Northwest indicate no 
improvement in the yield of winter wheat. 
Spring wheat has ueclined in condition. 
Farmers are reported to show little disposi¬ 
tion to sell, at present prices, wheat that is 
ready ior market. The hot weather has 
been favorable for corn except that it has 
evaporated the moisture very rapidly and 
unless more rains loliow, the crop will soon 
suffer for iackof moisture. Oats are a short 
crop both in straw and grain. The ship¬ 
ments of oats from this market have been 
heavy pince the last harvest. They have 
gone to France, England and the Continent. 
The higher qualities have been used abroad 
for food purposes, but the more general 
takings have been for horse feediug. The 
actual amount taken from the New York 
market since January 1, of this year by all 
the markets abroad reaches the enormous 
total close on 10,000,000 bushels. This stands 
in sharp contrast to the shipments of the 
previous year for the same period, which 
reached only 95,000 bushels. Previous 
seasons had only shown a small business 
with the shippers. 
California Bartlett pears are becoming 
quite plentiful. 
One Savannah steamer brought 42,000 
water-melons. 
Everything looks well up to date for the 
hop crop in this State, but from the other 
side reports still come along of damage 
done the growth. There is nothing bright 
about the New York market. It requires 
strong urging to induce buyers to make 
purchases. 
On the new clips of wool there Ip a good 
deal of indifference over buying. Instead 
of the usual competition and the pushing 
up of prices at the opening of a season, 
theie is a dull, flat condition of affairs. 
This is partly owing to the uncertainties of 
tariff legislat on. 
President Mills, of the Delaware Rail¬ 
road, has furnished the regular annual 
railroad estimate of the peach crop. This 
season the total estimated shipments are 
placed at 12,375 baskFts, of which the Queen 
Anne and Kent Railroad is credited with 
11,975 baskets, the Baltimore aud Delaware 
Bay Railroad with 250 baskets, and the 
Delaware Railroad with 150 baskets. The 
other branch roads are not credited with 
any expected shipments. This is the 
smallest yield in the history of peach grow¬ 
ing with two exceptions, 1868, when the 
shipments were 23 car loads, and 1881, when 
78 car-loads were sent to market. The year 
1882, however, gave a crop of over 6,000 car¬ 
loads. The number of trees along the Del¬ 
aware division and branches is estimated 
at 6,110,903; Baltimore and Delaware Bay 
road, 950,750; Baltimore and Eastern Shore 
500,000: New York, Philadelphia aud Nor¬ 
folk, 250,000; along the watercourse and 
other points, 2,000,000; total 9,811,653. It 
is estimated that over 3,000,000 of these 
trees are not yet in bearing. Most of the 
young trees are in the lower part of the 
peninsula. 
Reports from Philadelphia say that un¬ 
less corn comes forward rapidly from the 
West there is danger of a corn famine. 
Buyers at the Commercial Exchange Tues¬ 
day could only get two car-loads. One, of 
the grade of No. 3 mixed, sold at the ex¬ 
treme figure of 54 cents per bushel, and 
the other, which only graded No. 4 mixed, 
brought 53 cents. A week ago 45 cents was 
a lair price for No. 2 mixed corn, but none 
of that grade is now offeriug. Receipts of 
10 cars would probably break the market 
from two cents to three cents per bushel. 
THE cattle export interest is reviving, 
aDd the increased accommodation of ocean 
room needed is forcing up freight rates. 
The current price is 55s., against quite re¬ 
cent engagement at 4Us. to 45s. 
The probabilities are that the hay crop 
now about harvested is about the heaviest, 
and probably of as good quality also, as 
any ever grown. F. Williams & Co., com¬ 
mission dealers in hay, straw, etc., have 
issued a series of questions relating to the 
yield of hay and straw, quality, acreage, 
condition in which the crop was secured, 
amount now ready for snipment, etc., 
which they will mail to every part of the 
country. From the answers received, they 
will make up their annual crop report. 
They pride tuemselves upon the accuracy 
they have attained in previous reports as 
evidenced by results agreeing very closely 
with their predictions. They say now that 
receipts have continued very liberal since 
their last circular and the demand has 
been fairly good, but hay has necessarily 
been sold at figures which must show a 
loss to the shipper excepting on the very 
choicest kiud, wnioh has brought, aud is 
bringing, a satisfactory price. Prices on 
lower grades cannot be confined to quota¬ 
tions, as these grades are only worth what 
they can g.1 for them. There is some new 
hay arriving in the market which is of 
very excellent quality, but not having been 
sufficiently cured (.having been pressed in 
the field), it is being sold comparatively 
low. If the new crop is secured in good 
condition it will be almost useless to ship 
the old, after the new crop begins to move. 
They therefore advise the immediate ship¬ 
ment of everything excepting the very best 
grades. Semi no "shipping,” "clover,” 
clover mixed or No. 3, as shipments 
of the same will show no profit. 
Don’t rely on quotations lrom now out, as 
prices can only be guessed at; acccounts of 
sales tell the story. Good grades may real¬ 
ize better prices during the latter part of 
this month, and the early pait of August, 
but to hold ’till then will be running 
cuauces. Now that the 4th of July is over, 
they look for the usual activity in trade, 
aud hope to be able to clean up some ot the 
surplus of the poor goods wuich have re¬ 
cently accumulated. The shippers cannot 
expect over 85 cents for Prime, in large 
bales; 70 75 cents for No. 1, in large bales; 
55-60 cents for No. 2, in large bales; 30 cents 
for Shipping in large bales; 90 cents for No. 
1, Rye Straw. Clover mixed aud No. 3, at 
" Shipping ” price. Clover not wanted. 
The market is well supplied with butter 
of all grades. Creamery is accumulating 
under light sales, and prices might have to 
be shaded to effect sales of anything under 
best grades. At Elgin, sales were made 
during the week at 16 cents. At Little 
Falls, creamery sold at 16 cents, and dairy 
lrom 15 to 17 cents. 
Cheese is very unsettled. No dependence 
can be placed upon quotations irom one 
hour to the next, to say nothing of any 
longer time. Exporters are not buying 
much unless they can secure concessions, 
and as there is a large amount of stock on 
sale prices rule low. A very little has been 
sold at eight cents, but the prices of most 
grades rule considerably lower. At Little 
Falls tne market is dull, and sales were 
made at seven to 7% cents, the larger part 
going at 7)4 cents At Utica prices ranged 
from 7)4 to 7% cents, the bulk of the sales 
being below 7)4 ceuts. At Buffalo early in 
the week considerable stock was sold at 
eight cents. 
APPLES are more plentiful and the 
quality is as varied as the price. Consider 
able quantities are now arriving from New 
Jersey and Long Island. The latter are 
best and bring highest prices. 
Raspberries are about out of market 
and tiring good prices. Blackberries are 
not plentiful and bring better prices. 
A very few currants are arriving and 
sell at high prices. 
Considerable quantities of pears and 
grapes are arriving from Georgia. 
Cabbages are lower, also, and it will 
take flue ones to bring our outside quota¬ 
tions. 
Tomatoes are in good demand, and prices 
are well maintained. Large quantities of 
these are exhibited on the street stands in 
place of the usual supply of fruit. 
Corn is lower. 
The arrivals of water-melons have been 
large both by rail and steamer, and prices 
have declined somewhat. There is an im¬ 
mense demand for this fruit, however, and 
lower prices tend to increase the consump¬ 
tion, so there is no danger of a glut. 
Lemons have been sold at auction at 
$1.12j^ to $10.37 )4 per box. 
Potatoes are arriving in large quanti¬ 
ties and the price is steadily declining. 
California Peach plums have sold dur¬ 
ing the week at 2.75 to 3.85 per box; Bartlett 
pears from $3 85 to $4.05 per box: Hale’s 
Early Peaches from $1.20 to 2 60 per box ; 
Royal apricots from $1.10 to $2 per crate; 
German prunes from §2.95 to $3.55 per crate; 
Beurre Giffard pears for 70 cents per crate. 
The most of this fruit was about 10 days in 
transit and arrived mostly in good condi¬ 
tion. Occasionally a lot is rotten caused, 
probably, by the frutt being too ripe when 
picked. _
