PRODUCTS , PRICES AND TRADE. 
At the recent auction of ostrich feathers 
in London, 85,000 pounds were sold, bring¬ 
ing about $900,000. 
Extorts from Canada for the year ending 
June 30 last, amounted to $235,483,956. 
About Vi was for animal products; 1/5, 
agricultural goods; 1 /7 from the forests: 
1/8, minerals; 1/10, manufactures; and 
1/16, fisheries. The largest item for ship¬ 
ment to the United States was lumber; 
second, copper; third, coal; and, in order, 
silver, hides, wheat and wood pulp. 
The Board of General Appraisers has again 
been wrestling with natural history, and the 
decision is rendered that dead bares are 
not beef, veal, mutton or pork from a tariff 
point of view. The ruling is that a dead 
hare, undressed, is an unenumerated unmanu¬ 
factured article, dutiable at 10 per cent ad 
valorem instead of two cents per pound, as 
the local board had ruled in classing it as 
an article similar to beef, veal, mutton and 
pork. 
Another oleomargarine rascal has been 
caught at it. His work was done in southern 
Indiana. lie bought oleo at nine cents per 
pound, made it over into neat butter prints 
and worked up a dairy route in the suburbs 
of Louisville, Ky., just over the Ohio River. 
Dressed as a farmer he went about seeking 
private customers, and at times _ his profits 
are supposed to have run as high as $50 
per day. The butter was sold at 25 cents 
or more, leaving a margin of about 200 per 
cent after deducting all expenses. The 
United States authorities have him now. 
Apples. —The market in this city is dull, 
and local consumptive demand will doubtless 
continue light until the rush of grapes is 
over. Good Concords are retailed at 25 cents 
per eight-pound basket, and people use them 
freelv while they last, knowing that they can 
get plenty of apples later. The highest prices 
obtained now are for Jonathan and McIn¬ 
tosh. These have retailed at $5 or $6 per 
barrel, the wholesale price running from 
$2.50 to $4. Western Jonathans in boxes, 
holding about 40 pounds net, retail at $3. 
not far from eight cents per pound, nearly 
double the price by weight of choice grapes. 
There are plenty of Colorado apples here, 
but I have looked in vain for any of the 
Spencer Seedless, which are to “revolutionize 
the apple industry.” Local interest in the 
strictly Winter varieties, Baldwin, Greening, 
etc., is light, prices running from $1.50 to 
$2.25. 
Potatoes. —Though the outlook has im¬ 
proved a trifle, the market continues very 
weak. Scattering sales at above $2 per bar¬ 
rel have been noted, but the majority of the 
wholesale business runs considerably under 
one cent per pound. The crop throughout 
the country, though not a record breaker, 
appears to be large enough to keep prices 
about where they are until selling out of the 
field is over. A fair supposition seems to be 
that the price will work up to a minimum of 
$2 within a month or six weeks, but prophesy¬ 
ing potato prices is doubtful business. The 
recent frost damage in the Northwest is 
not so' great as was at first feared. ’Hie 
crop in Maine and New York is good, the 
latter State running perhaps five per cent 
under last year. The outlook is that Europe 
will have plenty of potatoes to send us as 
soon as the price here reaches 75 cents per 
bushel. 
Advocates of indefinite cold storage of 
poultry cite as an argument the buffalo steak 
which’has been kept frozen since the world’s 
fair in Chicago, about 14 years ago, and 
now served at hotels to patrons willing to 
pav $3.50 per portion. They also say that 
neither chicken nor any other meat should 
be eaten very soon after being killed, but 
that “the meat should always hang a while 
so that, if it be diseased, the imperfections 
will become apparent.” This is highly re- 
asuring to the public and complimentary to 
the intelligence of inspectors. There is no 
objection to those who desire it eating stor¬ 
age meat as old as an Egyptian mummy, but 
how much of the cold-storage poultry is sold 
to the retail buyer for what it is? The 
writer knows very well how this poultry is 
handled, and that it is possible to thaw, 
wipe and fix it up so that the majority of 
consumers will buy it as fresh killed. Some 
may know the difference when it is eaten, 
but it is then too late for redress. Granting 
that the stored meat is entirely wholesome 
it is scarcely promotive of a thanksgiving 
spirit to have the surplus of a glutted mar¬ 
ket a year or more ago sold to the buyer as 
fresh killed. But there is a well grounded 
belief that considerable stored poultry is not 
fit to eat. Every year there are cases of 
illness that point to storage poultry. The 
following from a Chicago newspaper is worth 
noting in this connection : 
“Your Thanksgiving turkey is perhaps even 
now in cold storage being ripened to tender 
mellowness for the table on that glad day.” 
So far as the writer is concerned the tur¬ 
key for that occasion will be “ripened” else¬ 
where than in cold storage. The poultry deal¬ 
ers are very much stirred up on account of 
attempts in several localities to regulate this 
storage business. But poultry consumers 
will insist on reforms, and the dealers will 
fare better if they show a disposition to do 
away with the abuses of this business. 
That bntterine concern whose card is re¬ 
produced on page 823 makes a shrewd appeal 
to the city milk consumer, but they have 
omitted saying that, while the retail city 
price is - high—eight to 12 cents—the milk 
producer is netting only 3% cents, provided 
he gets the full exchange price and has to 
pay no extra station charges at his shipping 
point. It is well known that the exchange 
price is not a minimum, but a figure which 
members of this city association agree not to 
exceed. They buy as much lower as they 
can. and in locations where competition is 
slight there are many farmers who net less 
than three cents at present when discounts, 
“surplus” and station charges are deducted. 
That, can scarcely be called a high price. But 
when the city milkman gets hold of the 
milk he at least doubles the price, thus de¬ 
claring in effect that the cost of distributing 
it in the city is equal to the interest of the 
money invested in the cows, plus their feed 
and care, the exnenso of hauling the milk to 
the cars and railroad transportation 100 to 
200 miles. Tt is evident that the farmer is 
getting too little or the distributor too much. 
At any rate the birthplace of the high price 
complained of is right here in the city, and 
the tax on bntterine has about as much to do 
with this abuse as the price of paving stones. 
If the distributing were done in a business¬ 
like way all of this average grade milk could 
be sold to the consumer at six cents per 
quart in Winter and 414 or five in Summer 
and leave an ample profit for the dealer. The 
plea for free bntterine is about as reasonable 
as would be a demand from the printeries of 
this country, for the privilege of printing 
and putting into circulation unlimited sup¬ 
plies of greenbacks, so long as they looked 
like the real thing and satisfied those who 
did not know the difference. Uncle Sam’s 
finances would soon be on a shaky basis. 
The dairy interests do not fear out-and-out 
competition with bntterine. but the stuff has 
glwavs been sold on a fraudulent rather than 
competitive basis. w. w. h.
