BOROUGH HOP MARKET—JULY 13.
We continue to have a very heavy demand for all kinds
of hops, at next to nominal prices.. The plantation accounts
ace favourable, and the duty is estimated at 4240,000.

WEST KENT. —A general improvement is -noted from
nearly all the districts. The late storms have been followed
by fine dry and warm weather, which has produced its effect
on the hop plant. The pine during last week grew very
rapidly, and in many places the midsummer shoots are
reported to give promise of a full crop. Vermin are much

EAST KENT. —The bine has grown very rapidly -during,
the past week. In some places we hear still of a deficiency
of bine, and there is certainly not the same strength and
development that there was this time last. year. In most
districts, however, there is plenty of bine, and a very fair-
prospect of a crop.. We had a few foggy-nights last Week,
which have produced vermi:i. Ina few plantations which

were previoUsly clean we have heard .of the appearance of
lice in great quantities. This is, hoWever, only partial,
and up to the time of writing-. the general appearance of the
plant throughout the division is healthy,

Sussex -:The late forcing weather has produced a re-
markable growth of the bine. We are still foul in many
places, and there is a considerable breadth of poor and
weakly bine, but on the whole we look better, and do not
despair of growing some hops.
