THE RURAL NEW-YORKER. 
the team the buyer discovered that one of 
the pair was possessed of a “ bolting ” 
devil which caused him to duck his head 
and rush to the side of the road. After a 
narrow escape from a collision, the team 
was driven to the purchaser’s home, where, 
on the way to the barn, the same horse 
made another bolt to the side of the drive¬ 
way. The buyer instituted suit for breach 
of warranty, establishing the fact that the 
team was in the hands of a skillful driver, 
and he won his case. On appeal, the higher 
court sustained the judgment. No denial 
was entered to the facts as set forth, but 
the vendor claimed that the evidence failed 
to show that the horse was not gentle when 
he sold him. The judge thus effectually 
disposed of this plea: “ When the actions 
of the horse, showing a bad, ungovernable 
temper, are shown so soon after the sale 
and continue and are without reason, the 
jury were entitled to take the evidence of 
subsequent conduct as evidence of previous 
unkindness.” 
Galloway Cattle.— Many “ authori¬ 
ties ” have written long articles on cattle, 
and really said less than is found in the 
following note, printed in the catalogue of 
S. P. Clarke, Dover, Ill. : “The Galloway 
is a flistinct type—a hornless, hardy, hand¬ 
some, profitable, beef animal. In their 
native home, in Scotland, the animals are 
accustomed to roam over the hills, and 
gather their food among the rocks and 
heather. As a breed, they have never been 
pampered anywhere, but in the lowlands 
they have been brought more rapidly to 
maturity than in the uplands, where the 
climate is cold and the fare scanty. One 
of their distinctive characteristics is their 
luxuriant coats of long, wavy hair, over- 
lying a thick undergrowth of fine, soft, 
short hair, which resists the cold and wet. 
The rough coat being cast in summer, the 
Galloway is therefore in a favorable condi¬ 
tion to endure the excessive heat, which 
explains why he is so popular in the South 
as well as in the North. His skin, though 
mellow, is moderately thick, and affords a 
good protection against the flies. His beef 
• is the very best in quality, this being daily 
demonstrated in the British markets, 
where it is well-known and sells at a higher 
figure than other kinds. It is evenly 
marbled, the fat lying in thin layers be¬ 
tween the muscular tissues. In contests on 
the block this superiority is clearly seen, 
when prize carcasses come to the front, as 
at New Orleans World’s Fair and at Kan¬ 
sas City and Chicago Fat Stock Shows. 
The Galloway cow is a good mother and a 
good milker. Although the quantity of her 
milk is not extraordinary, it is very rich in 
butter, and of prime quality. The Gallo¬ 
way, too, is an impressive sire, fully 98 per 
cent, of his half blood progeny being black 
and hornless. In my own experience, I 
have found the Galloway in every way sat¬ 
isfactory. He matures rapidly, is hardy, is 
happy.” _

AGRICULTURAL NEWS. 
SATURDAY, August 9. 1890. 
Major Ryal, the owner of a 135-acre 
truck farm near Savannah, Ga., has no 
reason to say that farming does not pay. 
His receipts have averaged over $18,000 a 
year for the past nine years, and he nets— 
well, in 1880 he was $3,000 or $3,000 in debt, 
while now he is worth more than $60,000, 
every dollar of it made ou the farm. 
Twenty six English jackasses arrived 
here ou Thursday ou the steamer Lydian 
Monarch. They were brought here for 
breeding purposes. 
The first bale of the new crop of South 
Carolina cotton was received at Charleston 
on Thursday from Barnwell County. 
The first Pale of new California hops ar¬ 
rived the first of the week by the Sunset 
Route. The stock of hue qualities of Pacific 
and State hops is low. 
Ocean freights are low here, but a report 
ou Thursday irom Baltimore said that room 
tor two boat loads of grain had been offered 
free. 
While the invention of the cotton-gin 
almost revolutionized the growing of 
cotton, the great lahor involved in hand¬ 
picking and the difficulty of securing 
needed help at the proper time have stood 
greatly in the way of a greater extension 
of the business. One great aifticulty in 
doing this work by machinery has been the 
irregularity of the bolls in maturing. A 
machine has now been invented that 
picked, in a field test, 98 per cent, of the 
opened bolls without injury to the un¬ 
opened bolls or other portions of the plants. 
It is a very ingenious piece of mechanism, 
and picks one row at a time as fast as a 
pair ol mules can draw it over the low. 
CROP AND MARKET NOTES. 
Bananas are the only cheap fruit in the 
market. 
Tomatoes are sold ou the fruit stands for 
two cents each. 
Best Jersey and up-river apples bring $4 
to $4.o0 per barrel. 
Pineapples have been of extremely poor 
quality this season. 
Beans have advanced greatly, as refer¬ 
ence to our quotations will show. 
Cheese is dull and irregular in price. 
Many lots arrive in poor condition and this 
unsettles the market. 
Exporters of wheat who have held off 
lately, have begun buying at still higher 
prices. Twelve boat-loads were bought for 
the Lisbon market in one day. 
MUCH of the dressed poultry arriving is 
in poor condition and sells at low prices. 
Too great economy of ice is practiced in 
packing, to the ultimate loss of the shipper. 
Live poultry if well crated in comfortable 
coops and supplied with abundant food and 
water proves most satisfactory. 
Recent shipments of choice butter have 
brought more satisfactory prices. The 
E revailing low prices during the season 
ave increased consumption, but a large 
surplus has accumulated, nevertheless, and 
this is now in cold storage awaiting a more 
favorable market. The demand for choice 
grades continues good. 
Dried and Evaporated Fruits of 
nearly all kinds have made a material ad¬ 
vance. The failures in the present year’s 
crop have caused this, together with the 
fact that stocks on hand are light. Little 
business is being done, but holders have 
very decided views of the situation and are 
not anxious to crowd the market. Evapor¬ 
ated apples have advanced at least 30 per 
cent, within the week. Cherries have nearly 
doubled in price. New raspberries have 
opened at 27 cents, about 50 per cent higher 
than the opening price last year. Peaches 
of all grades have made quite an advance. 
Plums are considerably higher. The mar¬ 
ket for foreign dried fruits is also firm. 
Everything in the shape of fruit should be 
saved this year. Of course the better shape 
it is put in the better. 
a Peach Combination.— Combinations 
for handling different products seem to be 
the order of the day. A statement has been 
published that a number of New York 
produce merchants had bought up fully 
two-thirds of the peach crop on the Lake 
Erie islands, including perhaps the Ohio 
orchards. Who the purchasers are does not 
seem to be positively known. G. S. Palmer 
says they are j unior members of the Produce 
Exchange, who, finding they were not mak¬ 
ing enough money out of the ordinary com¬ 
missions on sales, began last year this spec¬ 
ulation in buying up whole crops in certain 
parts of the country. They started in with 
Florida oranges, and this year bought up 
the well-known Le Conte pears of Georgia, 
and also combined with numerous growers 
to manipulate the water-melon market. 
Until now the scheme has not succeeded. 
In all these deals the grower gathers his 
crop at one time, as he considers that every 
fruit that falls to the ground is his loss. 
The consequence is that the market is 
glutted with an inferior fruit, plucked be¬ 
fore it had come to its maturity. This is 
especially true with regard to the oranges 
of last year and this year’s pears. Most of 
the early shipments of pears were very poor, 
and only recently have really fine pears 
come to this market. Of course these bring 
much better prices. Theshippersseemtobe 
the ones who are losing most by this specu¬ 
lation business. 
Flax seed Is no small item in the vast 
supply of products coming to this city. 
Formerly East India turnished the bulk of 
the supply, but gradually the American 
seed came into favor, and was largely used, 
although the latter yields less oil. Con¬ 
sumers have made their contracts largely 
with the Western producers or handlers. 
Dakota probably furnishes the largest crop 
of the flax seed, but is closely followed in 
the production by Kansas, while Nebraska, 
Illinois, Iowa and Minnesota push each 
other in the totals of their contribution. 
Harvesting of the crop set in in Kansas and 
Nebraska in July, and will be continued 
throughout this month. In other States 
the month of August is about the earliest 
period for dependency upon marketable 
supplies; and even early September is re¬ 
quired in some sections for a full develop¬ 
ment of the crop. This season all parties 
interested in the linseed and kindred inter¬ 
ests are much concerned over the probable 
Western yield. The dry, hot weather 
which has been disastrous in the Western 
growing sections has included flax seed in 
its damaging tendencies, and it is alto¬ 
gether likely that the consuming contin¬ 
gent in the country will have to seek the 
loreign channels of supply in much more 
material form. Prices are likely to rule 
higher. Substantial advances have already 
been made at the West on the home pro¬ 
duct. Calculations as to the cost of impor¬ 
tation make it at about $1.70 per bushel, 
and it is said that this rate, all things con¬ 
sidered, is more favorable to the crushers 
by about 10 cents per bushel in comparison 
with some views held as excited by crop 
damage. The supply from London is also 
likely to be smaller than heretofore. Rus¬ 
sia is a large producer and may have an 
excess. 
The crop report of the Kansas State Board 
of Agriculture does not give a bright pic¬ 
ture of the corn crop situation in that 
State. Reports received from about 500 
correspondents of the Board representing 
every county in the State clearly indicate 
that the growing crops in every portion of 
the State have been seriously injured. The 
severe drought, intense heat and occasional 
hot winds prevailing throughout the State 
generally have been the cause of this falling 
off of the corn prospects. The condition* 
which one mouth ago was reported 90 per 
cent., is now reported at only 33 per cent of 
au average crop. This devastation of the 
crop exists in every portion of the State, 
but that portion of the State between the 
97th and 100th meridians has suffered most 
severely. Gray and Riley Counties report 
a practical failure of the crop. Seventy five 
counties in Eastern Kausas, eight counties 
west of the 100th meridian, report 50 to 80 
per cent, of a crop. It is safe to say that 
the corn crop this year will not exceed 
75,000,000 bushels. The yield of wheat is 
round to be better than expected. Thirty 
to 40 bushels per acre reported, testing 63 
to 65 pounds per bushels. The aggregate 
wheat product will be about 23,000,000. The 
flax area uas been increased and the crop is 
very good. The oat crop, although short, 
is yielding belter than was expected; a yield 
of from 40 to 70 bushels per acre is reported 
from a number of counties. The following 
is the summary as compared with a full 
average condition. Corn 33 per cent., bar¬ 
ley, (30, flax, 84; broom corn, 57; sorghum, 63; 
millet,50; tame grass58; potatoes, 40; prairie 
grass, 55; apples, 53; peaches, 48; grapes, 64. 
The mouth has betn the driest and hottest 
July in 20 years. Chinch bugs are reported 
in many counties but they have done no 
great damage.
