Compound Oxygen has been before the 
public for twenty years. It has passed its 
period of probation, been “ tried, and not 
found wanting.” We have treated over 
50,000 patients in various parts of the world. 
An International Congress of our patients, 
each sp°aking in his own tongue, would 
rival the scene at the Tower of Babel. All 
this, we are proud to say, has been accom¬ 
plished not by any species of charlatanry. 
We never have professed to cure all cases 
of disease, nor to warrant a cure in any 
case. We simply present the testimony of 
those who have tried it. We have their 
permission to refer you to them, if you 
desire further information. 
Send for our brochure of 200 pages, a 
treatise on Compound Oxygen, its dis¬ 
covery, mode of action, and results, and 
you will find a record of cures in many 
chronic cases, with well attested testimo¬ 
nials. Sent free. Address Drs. Starkey

CROP AND MARKET NOTES. 
Ducks sell well if fat. 
Vension is in market. 
Game brings good prices. 
Egg plant is a trifle higher. 
Squashes are in good supply and of ex¬ 
cellent quality. 
Celery of excellent quality and fine ap¬ 
pearance is on sale. 
Poultry is lower, owing to large supply. 
Only prime stock sells readily. 
Onions are in fair supply, but the price is 
well maintained for good qualities. 
HAY is in large supplv and must be of 
best quality to bring outside quotations. 
Quinces are many of them of inferior 
quality. They sell for little more than 
apples. 
Six horses, the property of William Wal¬ 
dorf Astor, were sold at auction this week 
for SL 075. 
The hop crop of Oregon and Washington 
for the present year is estimated at 14,000,- 
000 pounds. 
Oregon is engaging extensively in cran¬ 
berry growing, for which the soil and cli¬ 
mate are both favorable. 
Oats arriving here are of poor quality. 
One car-load recently arrived showed an 
average weight of 16 pounds to the bushel. 
Potatoes are quite plentiful and the 
demand is moderate, so there is not a very 
brisk market, and the prices are a trifle 
lower. Sweets have also declined slightly. 
Canned peaches from San Jose, Cal., 
to London, is another of the novelties of 
this exceptional year. A single shipment 
of 7,000 cases, requiring 22 cars, was started 
last week. 
Flour has been shipped largely in sacks 
recently instead of in barrels, but the paint 
which is used to brand the sacks is said to 
poison the flour, and this is causing a pre¬ 
judice against this style of package. 
On Thursday, two boat-loads of grain 
were shipped from Baltimore to Liverpool 
for ballast, the vessels paying a cent per 
bushel bonus. Such cheap freights ought 
to help prices to the American growers. 
Buckwheat is the best of the grain crops 
this year and the acreage is large, but the 
stocks of buckwheat flour carried over from 
last year are large and are being offered at 
low prices. This will have the effect of re¬ 
ducing the price of the new crop. 
California apricots are having a large 
sale here ou account of the scarcity of 
peaches which they more nearly resemble 
than any other fruit. The pie bakers buy 
them by the car load. Whether they ex¬ 
pect to turn them out later as “ peach pie” 
remains to be seen. 
Touacco promises to bring good figures. 
The stock of old is low and there is consid¬ 
erable export demand. The new crop is 
generally reported in excellent order 
though it has been injured in some parts 
by storms. Virginia is said to have the 
best crop in 20 years. 
Butter has advanced slightly in price for 
the most desirable grades, but has hardly 
reached the point held before the recent de¬ 
cline. The trouble with much of the but¬ 
ter received as fresh-made is that it shows 
evidences of having been held for a longer 
or shorter time. It is useless for shippers 
to expect to deceive receivers in this man¬ 
ner. 
South Jersey is putting up an enormous 
pack of tomatoes. At Bridgeton there are 
six factories which put up over 200,000 cans 
daily, besides immense quantities of pears, 
beaus, sweet potatoes, pumpkius, etc. This 
year must prove a prosperous oue to the 
cauuers, as the lack of old stock and the 
shortage in the fruit crop insure a good 
demand. 
Hops remain very quiet though the price 
is firm. The crop is reported to be moving 
to some exteut in the country, but trading 
here is light. The prospect is for a main¬ 
tenance it' uot an increase of present prices. 
It is currently reported that extensive con¬ 
tracts have been made for shipments of 
hops through November and December to 
the other side. Many thousands of bales 
will then go forward ou room already con¬ 
tracted for. The particulars are uot al¬ 
lowed publicity. The freight rate paid was 
three quarters of a penny. It is intimated 
that many of these lots will be forwarded 
on consignment. 
A solid train of cars loaded with hops 
was sh pped from Puyallup, Washington, 
to Baltimore for shipment to London. Each 
car contained about 15,000 pounds which 
at the ruling price here for Pacific coast 
hops would make the value considerably 
above $100,000. Another similar train loaded 
by a single ranch was expected to follow the 
first in a few days. 
California raisins have become an im¬ 
portant factor in Jhe Eastern markets. 
During the lastof September much damage 
was reported in some parts of the raisin- 
producing territory from unseasonable 
rains and damp, foggy weather. Later re¬ 
ports say that fair weather with generally 
higher temperature set in October 1. and that 
the loss to growers has been light. The first 
shipment of raisins and dried fruits from 
Fresno and one or two other important 
centers was made this week. At Napa there 
has been considerable damage to the wine 
grapes. There is said to be less sugar in the 
grapes now than four weeks ago. 
Selling Produce by Weight.— The 
committee of the Board of Aldermen, to 
whom this matter was referred, gave a 
final hearing to interested partifs on 
Thursday. A remarkable feature of this 
hearing was the appearance of a delegation 
of truck farmers from Norfolk, Va., repre¬ 
senting a Grange in that county. They 
came all this distance to prove that it is 
impossible to weigh all the fruits and vege¬ 
tables received here. The wholesale 
grocers seemed to be the only ones to favor 
the ordinance. The general opinion seems 
to be, as we have held, that it is imprac¬ 
ticable. The committee is now engaged in 
preparing a report, but in the meantime 
will receive any communications on the 
subject. 
Grapes are the most plentiful fruit In 
market. Concords, as usual, lead in quan¬ 
tity and popularity. A 10-pound basket of 
fresh, ripe, luscious grapes for 30 cents at 
retail ought to make them popular. The 
best we have been fortunate enough to se¬ 
cure came from Euclid, O. ; they were 
thoroughly ripe, of large size, sweet and de¬ 
licious, but the baskets were filled so full 
and they were so ripe that they were 
crushed somewhat and would not keep. 
To ship and keep well the fruir, must be 
picked before beiug fully ripe and then the 
quality is not so good. Nice Delawares 
may be bought for 25 cents the five-pound 
basket. We saw some flue Marthas which 
were good enough for any one to eat. The 
poorest grapes this season came from up 
the river. The weather has not been favor¬ 
able to their full development. 
California Fruits.— It was expected 
that the flush of fruits from the Pacific 
Coast was past some time since, but last 
week’s receipts reached a total of 58 car¬ 
loads. This, with heavy receiDts of Eastern 
grapes and other varieties of fruits, made 
the market somewhat dull. Some of the 
Tokay Grapes received were too green. 
The market demands a high-c dored fruit. 
Peaches were in uuusually free supply. 
The auction sales made the following 
ranges: Bartlett Pears, box, the last to 
come, $2 70 to $4.40 : Seckel, fancy, $7.20 ; 
Beurrti Clairgeau, $3.10 to $4.50; Duchess, 
$2.35 to $4.30; various, $1.65 to $4.20; Whi¬ 
ter Nelis, $2.75 to $3.15; quinces, $2 20 to 
$2.75 ; peaches, 65 cents to $2 25; nectarines, 
$3.25 to $4.20; almonds, $1.25 to $1 40; Japan 
Plums, $4.10 to $6.90; other, $1 55 to $1.85 ; 
prunes, $1 50 to $3; Tokay Grapes, double 
crates, $2.30 to $6.10; single, 90 cents to 
$3.35 ; Muscat, double, $1.05 to $2.50; single, 
75 cents to $1 60 ; Malaga, $2 to $3.10; vari¬ 
ous, 80 cents to $3.15. 
Reports from the Northwest, October 1, 
say that the corn had matured, and, with 
the exception of portions of Iowa and the 
State of Nebraska, without auy serious 
damage from frost. Very little grain of 
any kind has been moving out of farmers’ 
hands during the last mouth. The sur¬ 
plus over and above that which wilt bo re¬ 
quired for home consumption is very small. 
Farmers have not had such good prices for 
grain for several seasous past as exist now. 
The reports generally show that the country 
elevators contain very little oats or old 
corn, while a year ago the situation was 
just the opposite. The movement of winter 
wheat is practically over. What does come 
out is taken very quickly by millers, who 
as a class do uot usually carry stock to last 
them for more than 60 to 90 days. The 
mouth of September has been a tine month 
for seediug. The ground nearly everywhere 
is reported to be in excellent condition, and 
there is a general absence of insect life aud 
enough moisture in the ground to give the 
crop an early start. The acreage is fully as 
large, if uot larger, than was seeded a 
year ago. The weather iu the spring-wheat 
belt during the mouth has been more or 
less wet, aud wheat standing in the shock 
and that which has been poorly stacked has 
been more or less damaged.

GRAIN MARKETS. 
WHEAT —The early sirengtb was ascribed mainly 
to the bullish uiteram es i v a prominent opera or at 
the West, and besides this, reports were current to 
the effect that 45,000 packages flour bad been taken 
for export at Minneapo Is, which added to the buoy¬ 
ancy Ca le advices were stronger In somecases, and 
this, too, helped the ’ bulls,' while the rise in silver 
had a strengthening influence. Interior arrivals 
were quite moderate Dut this was offset by the small 
seab ar-i clearances. Most of the late weaktn ss was 
the result of heavy selling by the party who was
