THE 110 P PLATATIONS.—fIop-picking has now
become general throughout all the hop-growing districts
of Kent, the present fine weather facilitating the opera-
tion. In the grounds already cleared the yield is not ex-
p2ctcd to be so high as was originally anticipated, and it
is probable that an average crop will be barely realised. In
some of the best gardens a yield of from 15 cwt. to 17 cwt.
per acre is expected to ba realised ; but throughout the
county generally it is not expected that the average will
be higher than about 5 cwt. per acre. The hop market is
very dull, with scarcely any business tieing, while prices
are about the same as before.
