BlaR1ss.-T strawberry season 10 just
over, and seldom has such an abundance
been known in this locality. The Wild
berries aourished in the greatest profusion
while tina cultivated varieties were brought
to market in large quantities. Most per.
sons prefer the flavor Of the Wild to any Of
the tame Strawberries. They sold readily
1t Is cents per quart. Ms
Raspberries have been in market for
couple Of weeks, though the supply is not
equal to the demand. They bring 20 cents
per quart.
Blueberries are in market in tolerable
quantities. They ore brought from the
Ceow Wing country, and retail At 10 cents
per quart. '',.1 d
The prospects for q more abundant yield
of oranberries than We have had for NUM-
Der ofyears are said to be promising. The
have recovered from the effects Of
The drouths and fires, and the vines are
loaded with young berries. ,s "a.
Appearances are also favorable for full
supply Of blackberries this season. So, ia
ken all in all, our people are not likely to
be short Of preserves, jellies, jams and
''sich," not to speak Of berries and cream.

at the time. The thief also purloined a
whip from Messrs. H. & R. with which to

Manufacturing most Of the time for
the past two weeks, or until the late rains,
the weather has been excruciatingly hot.
It has been; almost too warm for people to

phere is now, We are glad to say, much
more comfortable. - .,... ,.:..:r ,....g4,
