FRUITS ---Thcre is very general complaint
amongst the buyers of watermeIons this season
in regard TO the small size of tho melons as
compared with those of previous years. Last
year, for instance, it was not uncommon to fud
them weighing as much as forty pounds or
even more; this year it is rare to get one which
weighs over twenty five. Nor is the quality
Of "mcat" to be compared with those of more
favorable seasons.
Peaches raised in this section are not as large
or as plentiful as 10 former years, though, so
lar as We arc able to judge, their flavor is fully
equal to any We have ever tasted.
Late apples and pears, owing to the long.
continued drought, are not maturing well, and
il is feared that the crop of winter apples will
be short.-Rich Dispatch.

severe condemnation by many Of his

tached themselves to tho Reform par

one of many SANDERS we expect TO
