factures, or, at least, wait until We have
paid our debts.
Wharf.-The crop prospects in the
west are encouraging, Notwithstanding
the backvarduess OF the season. The
fall wheat ia especially promising. In
the far west, as in Minnesota and Wis
consin, farming operations had been
retarded. but it Is believed there will be
Q good season after all for the different
cereals. Except in certain parts OF
Maryland and Delaware, the injury to
fruit by the frost has been generally in-
considerable.
HoGs-The hogs arriving in the va
rious markets of the country are aver
sging very light in weight-droves
upon droves OF them are mere pigs,
pulling down but $50 to 10 pounds.
All hogs OF this character now driven
to market deplete the packers stock Of
lS74-75, and prospects now are that
much higher figures will prevail next
winter than were paid last. The Iowa
State Register, a paper printed in the
very heart Of an extensive hog pro
duclng region, says there is sure to be
a short hog crop next fall. aud urges
farmers to save every pig. and cell no
more OF their hsli-grown shoats, for
the prices these will bring when well
fattened next winter will doubly pay for
holding them over.
WooL-The cold, rainy weather icr
some time past, has prevented WOO
growers from shearing, and we there
fore have no new clip coming in.
The return OF warm weather will soon
stock the market. At tpresent the mar
ket is nearly bare-scarcely anything
doing, and prices nominal.
