Black rust is doing considerable damage 
to wheat in the Canadian Northwest. 
Orange and lemon shipments from Cali¬ 
fornia this season will total about 47,000 
cars. 
Cotton boll worm has appeared in the 
Puujaub district of India and threatens 
great damage. 
The fruit crop of Colorado this year will 
be about half of a normal yield. ‘ Quality 
is reported good. 
T^iie Annapolis Valley, Nova Scotia, will 
have the largest crop of apples ever grown 
there, about 1 , 000,000 barrels. 
Peaches in Connecticut will be a very 
heavy crop. In the Glastonbury section 
the outlook is for 300 cars. The Hale 
orchards will yield about 200 cars. 
Aroostook County, Maine, potato grow¬ 
ers have formed an association for better 
marketing of their crops. The president is 
H. E. I tittle, of Caribou, and secretary Guv 
Porter, of Iloulton. 
Kansas Grain. —Secretary Coburn’s re¬ 
port gives the Kansas wheat as 51.365,000 
bushels, the smallest yield since 1S91). The 
eorn acreage is about 7.681,330, or 15 per 
cent less than last year. The outlook is 
lor i*4.3 per cent of an average yield. 
We are having very warm and dry 
weather. Are in the midst of oat harvest. 
I asture is poor. Prospects for corn good.

have timothy and clover seed to sell.

Snyder Co., Pa. 
Roy, X. Y.,. is a center for bean 
growing. This year prospects are not good, 
llie crop was late in coming up on «c- 
count of the dry weather and the growth 
lins boon slow, kvoii iti Holds wile re there 
seems to be a fair growth of vines there 
are very few pods. Since the heavy wind¬ 
storm ten days ago a blight seems to have 
struck the vines, and many of the leaves 
have turned brown ana died. The early 
potato crop was close to a failure 
winds in Western Now York have 
done great damage in blowing apples from 
the trees. At Medina the loss was heavy. 
Clark Allis estimates his loss at 1,000 bar¬ 
rels. At Middleport the report is that ex¬ 
amination of a number of apple, peach and 
plum orchards reveals the fact that tin- 
loss of fruit from tile big wiud will be 
more than offset by an increase in size and 
quality of the fruit remaining on the 
tiees. 1 he windstorm did not do as much 
damage as at first reported. 
The West Virginia Horticultural Society 
lias organized county associations to help 
apple growers and buyers to get together,

tanes with estimated quantity of' apples

Things in nature never seemed to look 
much better with us than just at present. 
( rops have been good, and what are in the 
ground promise very fair. Hay was light, 
and yet there was quite a lot of it. Wheat 
better than our average, and oats good 
Corn well along and fine. All fruit crops 
splendid, but the demand lias taken every¬ 
thing as fast as it was put on the market 
at very good prices; even now early apples 
are peddled at $1 per bushel. Winter apple 
trees loaded and promise well. Very few 
orchards cared for at all, and there will be 
lots of inferior fruit, but still there will 
be a big yield. All tree fruits have made 
good tins year. Weeds also doing well as 
could be expected. r c a 
Branch Co., Mich. 
Our May drought was followed by good 
rams in dune and early July, though' the 
last half of July was short on moisture, but 
now, early in August, we have had several 
showers and promise of more. These rains 
have been local in character, and some 
sections of southern Ohio are in a serious 
condition. Wheat and oat thrashing fin¬ 
ished, and the yields are one-half to two- 
thirds of the normal. Ilay about half a 
crop and all put up In good condition. 
< orn is doing well, and shows but little 
effect of lack of moisture 10 days ago 
when we had such hot, dry weather. Plen¬ 
ty fruit here, but undersized and of 
inferior quality, due to heat and drought. 
Timothy seed only moderate yield, and sell¬ 
ing for $5 to .$6 per bushel. Orchard grass 
lair yield, worth $1.25 per bushel. Clover 
seed will probably be nearly a failure. 
Early potatoes nearly total failure, and 
late but little better. Most garden crops 
doing well where properly cultivated, but 
all vegetables are scarce and high-priced. 
Pastures are short, but in fair shape, though 
in nearby sections owners are sacrificing 
stock because of dried-up pastures, short 
hay crop and poor prospects for corn.

Acreage, 894,100; percentage, 78.4. To¬ 
bacco is grown commercially in 25 States, 
Kentucky, North Carolina and Virginia far 
exceeding all others in acreage. Other- 
States having more than 14,000 and less

acreage tin- United States stands first, fol¬ 
lowed closely by British India. Of Euro¬ 
pean countries, Italy leads with about 11,- 
700,000 acres, and other large producers in 
order are Spain, Hungary and Roumania.

PRODUCTS, PRICES AND TRADE. 
A new railroad yard covering 790 acres 
has just been put iu operation by the 
Pennsylvania Railroad at Northumberland, 
Pa., at a cost of $4,000,090. This will 
store 5,500 cars, and is so arranged that 
gravity and electricity will do the handling. 
Those who send windfall apples to New 
York shall be careful not to mix in rotten 
or specked fruit, as this renders the pack¬ 
age liable to confiscation by the Board of 
Health. "Windfall” apples are those that 
have just dropped, that is within a day 
or two, not those- that have lain on the 
ground for a week. Many of the latter 
will be partly rotten. 
Florida orange growers are somewhat 
troubled over the recent ruling of the Gov¬ 
ernment food authorities that forced ripen¬ 
ing of oranges will not be permitted. Here¬ 
tofore a part of the fruit has been picked 
green and the ripening hurried by placing 
in tight cars or other storage. Oranges 
ripened thus will now be considered "adul¬ 
terate,” and unsalable. This will make 
new oranges a little later but will help to 
keep some very unsatisfactory fruit off the 
market. 
Selling Old Papers. —Can you toll me 
of a reliable company .that purchases old 
newspapers, catalogues, etc.? g. g. 
Maine. 
There are some concerns that extract the 
ink from such paper and work it over 
again, but they usually get ample sup¬ 
plies of such stock nearby, and shipment 
for any long distance would uot pay. As, 
a rule the only way to dispose of this 
stuff is through junk men, who gather and 
sort it, and after baling sell it to paper 
mills. 
IIay Handling. —The New York Central 
Railroad has issued a new scale of storage 
rates that will make hay handling iu New 
York City more expensive. For 25 years 
it was the practice to store hay free for 
the first three days and after that charge 
$1 per car for storage. The new rule will 
be free storage for the first three days, $1 
per day for the next two days, and $3 per 
day after that. Instead of free lighterage 
a charge of $5 per car is to be made. The 
hay dealers are appealing to the Interstate 
Commerce Commission to annul or modify 
this new scale. 
Guinea Eggs. —What are guinea eggs 
worth in New York? g. s. 
Massachusetts. 
Not enough are received to establish a 
distinct price. They usually sell about on 
the basis of hens’ eggs, or a trifle under. 
But by far the most profitable plan is to 
hatch the eggs and sell the birds when of 
broiler size. When well grown they will 
bring from 75 cents to $1.25 per pair. j 
Hotels use them in the place of game. 
As the new law practically forbids the 
sale of domestic game in New York, it 
would seem that there might bo an open¬ 
ing for a fair increase in this trade. 
Varying Prices. —I sent four lots of 
green peas to a New York commission 
house. They were alike iu quality and 
handled by the same pickers, yet the price 
ran from $2 down to $1.25 per bag. Whv

Such things happen every day. They 
may be the result of dishonesty, but not 
necessarily so. Making sales is not a eut- 
and-dried affair. You may get a customer 
for half of a lot of peas at a certain price, 
but have to dispose of the remainder 
(which is just as good) for considerably 
less. Large produce houses have a num¬ 
ber of store salesmen, but not all are 
equally efficient in judgment and tact, and 
some take more interest In their work than 
others. These are some of the risks which 
a man must take in dealing with commis¬ 
sion houses, even of tne highest grade. 
Those who sell their own produce in local 
towns or public market places know that, 
unless there is a great scarcity, the sales 
of a single day will show different prices 
for goods of the same quality, w w h
