MARKETS 
Prices current at New York during week ending 
January 9, 1909, wholesale except where other¬ 
wise indicated. The retail prices given do not, as 
a rule, cover either the highest or lowest sales, but 
show what the bulk of consumers of moderate 
means pay for small quantities of produce bought 
in Fulton, Washington,. Jefferson Markets, etc., 
and up-town grocery stores. "Retail” is rather 
an indefinite word, but in this column it means 
less than barrel or other original package lots of 
fruits and vegetables, less than tubs of butter, 
cases of eggs. etc. The trade of commission mer¬ 
chants is strictly wholesale. The retail prices 
given are those secured by grocers and small deal¬ 
ers who receive no direct shipments.

MAKING CIDER VINEGAR. 
I have just changed live barrels of cider 
to the fruit house, and that puts mo in 
mind that some one some time ago asked 
through The R. N.-Y. how to make good 
cider vinegar. I will give my way of 
making. I have been making cider vinegar 
for 20 years. When the apples are getting 
ripe, we gather all the fallen ones, bring 
them to the shed. When we have 8" or 
It) bushels, one or two persons cuts every 
apple in two: cuts out all the rotten anil 
worms, and discards all we think will not 
made good cider (worms, rotten or green 
apples will not make good vinegar). Wo 
dean our barrels thoroughly, lay them 
down on a platform near the press with a 
spigot in each barrel; these are filled full 
as we make the cider. In Fall, before 
freezing, we draw off tills cider and put in 
the fruit house witli a spigot to each bar¬ 
rel. 'There will be from one to two bucket¬ 
fuls of sol flings in each barrel, which we 
tlirow away. When Spring comes, about 
April 1, we draw off the cider and put in 
clean barrels, under an open shed filling 
the barrels within four or five bucketfuls. 
Then my wife makes me fresh yeast, of 
which I put one to 1 % pint into each 
barrel, also five pounds brown sugar dis¬ 
solved in a bucket with the cider of each 
barrel. The vinegar will he strong enough 
to use in two or three months. The first 
good rain we fill each barrel nearly full 
with rain water. When Fall conies we 
draw it off as before and pu% it in the 
house again. At that time it must he di¬ 
luted with water to use. We sell a great 
deal of cider and vinegar, have customers 
that have patronized us for 18 years. You 
will observe we take a great deal of pains 
and time to do as we do in making the 
vinegar, but it pays well to be clean and 
honest in all your transactions.

Your bird will drop every time, 
when you pull trigger on a Stevens 
Rifle or Shotgun. 
It’s easy to get a good and quick 
aim, because of the absolute accuracy 
of the Stevens sights, either peep or 
open; and because of the perfect bal¬ 
ance of a Stevens—when you swing 
it to your shoulder, you find it steady 
and true to your aim. Then a Stevens 
is wonderfully far-and-straight-shoot- 
ing, hard-hitting, and quick-firing. 
Stevens hold more records than any 
other make of gun.
