a few DAYS later.
SIERRA The prospects are nat encouraging
and so'ne fields Will not pay 10 cut. In the
upper end ofthe galley, where irrigation can
be readily accomplished the prospects are
better.

peotS 80 hes 10 the acre from his barley
field. The grain crop promise 20 be as large
as last year
SoLANo--In the Montezuu,a hills the crops
are realizing the most sanguih" expectations
of the ranchers. The hay crop is disposed OF
and the barley Is In the staek. The headers
were put to work on the vii NJ fields this
week, The best prospect for all crops is in
the islands where wheat is e-t,mated at 45
bushels and barley at 10 too, 5ss
Prospects much proved by
cool weather, and fields that were considered
hopeless will now yield hall crop.

THE WOOL MARKET
In New York has shown less activity this
week owing to the combined influences of a
dull goods market and the recurrence of
legal holiday. The future of this market is
hard to foretel, but, from present appear
ances, nothing encouraging can be deduced.
Several new classes are now arriving freely,
ank to follow will be choice and other West
EN- neeces, which will be due inside OF
month. Liberal receipts OF Spring California
nave had a depressing effect mp N the market
and in many eases II much lower price has
been accepted than what holders were wont
to anticipate. Texas wool is being received in
good condition and quite lib2rilly, but hold
ers of choicest lots are considerably above
purchasers In their views. Foreign clothing
wool has been rather quiet, but prices have
remained quite steaiy. Foreign carpet ma
terial has met with an active inquiry and
prices have advanced, owing to a scarcity,
to cents per pound.
In Boston the wool market is unchanged
Manufacturers buy only in lots as wanted, but
with small stocks are Obliged to purchase
frequently, and sales foot up fair average.
Holders are still disposed to meet the market
freely at current prices, and are anxious to
keep supplies sold up as close as possible
rhere has been rather more inquiry for fine
ieeces, and $4,000 pounds of Ohio and Penn
syvania, principally choice Xxx. have been
sold at 5211aC15Sc. The stock of desirable fleece
wool is now considerably reduced. The prin-
cpal transactions Of the week have been in
California, sales of new Spring amounting to
100000 pounds. Prices have ruled in favor OF
buyers, but on the whole have been saisfac-
tory. The range has been from y TO 40c.,
a small lot of 5000 pounds .! i.,ncy Spring
selling at 40c. but the bulk Of saas has been
at between 81 and Soc. for gnod and choice
lots. Receipts of California have been con-
siderable, and the stock of this description is
now quite large. Some lots ot new Ohio fleeces
have been received, aud other supplies are
neai at hand. Dealers an manufacturers
appear to be quite Indifferent to the new clip,
ana will hesitate to purchase to any extent,
except at lower figures than growers are now
willing to submit to.
San Francisco quotes Spring as follows:
Good shipping
Heavy free, y ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.
