We sent 18,500,000 pounds of raisins to 
foreign countries last year. Canada was the 
best customer, taking 11,000.000 pounds. 
New Zealand 3,000,000, and Germany and 
England each 1.000,000 pounds. 
Ix 1261 wheat sold in England at 15 
cents per bushel. For 260 years the price 
ranged between this figure and 24 cents. 
During the next 250 years the price ad¬ 
vanced to .$1.44. The highest prices of 
modern times were from 1801 to 1811, from 
$2.04 to $3.07. This was a period of al¬ 
most continual war. In the last decade 
the price has averaged 90 cents. 
A woman 96 years old lias traded with 
one Boston grocer since 1834. The business 
was started in 1831, goods being delivered 
With wheelbarrows. Now the concern runs 
several stores, all on street corners, in ac¬ 
cordance with the founder’s ideas. 
We have had a very wet Fall to get work 
done; seeding late, potato digging is late 
on account of wet weather. Some good 
crops ; corn good, hay not very good on ac¬ 
count of dry weather; oats short crop. 
Apples are fair crop. Following are about 
the market prices received by the farmers 
here: Potatoes on car 65 cents, at stores, 
80 cents. Hay $25 a ton ; apples 50 cents 
to 75 cents. Rutter 35 cents; eggs 30 
cents; live chickens 10 cents; hogs, dressed, 
10 cents; sheep, on foot. 5% cents; cattle, 
dressed, eight cents; little pigs $5 a pair; 
oats. 65 cents; corn. 45 cents; milk, eight 
cents. w. k. j. 
Clearfield Co., Pa. 
In this section for the past two months 
the greatest amount of rain has fallen ever 
known for this season of the year. Nearly 
all the corn for filling silos had to be cut 
by hand, as the ground was too soft to use 
binders. This made the job much more ex¬ 
pensive. Corn husking, potato digging and 
beet harvesting have been greatly delayed 
by the extremely wet weather. Some snow 
has fallen during November, which has fur¬ 
ther delayed farm work. On this account 
some corn will be left in the fields un¬ 
husked all Winter. Corn fodder has been 
considerably damaged, which has caused an 
advance in the price of hay. It is now 
selling for i£16 to $20 per ton; in fact, 
feed of all kinds is high here. There has 
been no Fall plowing done, and as it is now 
the last of November, it does not look as 
though it would be possible to do any this 
season. This country is in the fruit belt, 
and there has been a good crop of all kinds 
of fruit except Winter apples. This is also 
a great dairy country, and farmers are 
prosperous. j. j.

tle were sold at either one of the above 
sales. Chickens, around 10 cents per pound, 
live. We do not have the large city mar¬ 
kets, only towns of 4,000 to 15.000 popula¬ 
tion. and it is only three years since we got 
a railroad in this immediate neighborhood, 
so have not got to shipping in large quan¬ 
tities yet. Some hay, straw, apples and po¬ 
tatoes are sent out in car lots. M. j. t.

25 bushels per acre. Potatoes went about

The 
World Crops. 
The 1011 wheat harvest in the Northern 
Hemisphere began last March, in British 
India, which produced 372.000.000 bushels, 
and ended in October with the Canadian 
crop of about 200.000.000 bushels. Russia 
is the only country in which the yield is 
much reduced. In the Southern Hemisphere 
the harvest begins in November and lasts 
nntil March, the present outlook, except in 
Australia, being favorable for a large wheat 
yield. Thus it would be possible for a man 
to work at harvesting wheat nearly the 
whole year, if he cared to chase the crop 
around the world. The area in wheat in 
Argentina is 3.923,900 acres: Australia, 
7,360,000, and New Zealand, 320.000 acres. 
In Great Britain and Ireland there were 
1,951,099 acres in wheat, 1.756,127 in bar¬ 
ley, 4,050.834 in oats, 1.163.283 in po¬ 
tatoes, 1.834,041 in turnips, 102,460 in cab¬ 
bage, 53,140 in Alfalfa and 4.157.037 in 
clover and other grasses. France had 15,- 
644.800 acres in wheat, yielding 314.197,000 
bushels; oats. 9,983.100 acres. 290.776,000 
bushels. Italy, with 11.741,000 acres in 
wheat, got 192,395,000 bushels; maize, 
3,726.200 acres, 93,837.000 bushels. The 
potato crop of Great Britain is about 95 
per cent, of an average; in Germany about 
868,000,000, an increase of nearly 40,000,- i 
000 from the early estimates. 
The International Institute of Agriculture 
gives the summary of world crop results: 
Wheat, 3,055.733,000 bushels of 00 pounds; 
rye, 1,324.000.000 bushels of 56 pounds; 
barley, 1.208.667.000 bushels of 48 pounds; 
oats, 3,384,500,000 bushels of 32 pounds; 
corn, the estimated production in Hun¬ 
gary is 138,064,000 bushels of 56 pounds; 
rice, the area probably harvested in Brit¬ 
ish India is 52,792.000 acres; cotton, the 
estimated area planted in British India is 
17,331,000 acres. The estimated area of 
wheat sown in Argentina is 17,043,000 
acres; in Chili, 1,853,000 acres; and in 
Australia 7,905,000 acres. The estimated 
area of oats sown in Argentina Ls 2.547,000 
acres; and in Australia 689,000 acres. 
Apples at Auction. 
C. E. Thurston & Co., of New York, who 
are selling eastern apples at auction, re¬ 
port the following prices received recently : 
Western New York Baldwins, fancy, sell 
from $2.50 to $2.75 per barrel, choice $1.50 
to $2.25 per barrel. Hudson River Bald¬ 
wins $1.25 to $2.25 per barrel. Western 
New York Greenings, extra fancy, $2.75 
to $3.50, choice $1.50 to $2.50 per barrel, 
Hudson River $1.50 to $2.40 per barrel 
with the inferior quality selling down as 
low as $1. A few barrels of very fancy 
Western New York Spitzenburgs realized $4 
to $5 per barrel, and a few Kings $2.25 
to $3.50 per barrel.
