The anti-monopolist. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1874-1878, 1876-06-15

A number OF families in Murray county
have been obliged to leave on account OF
the hopper ravages, but in the southern
part OF the county the crops are scarcely
touched. In some places where there
are myriads in the grain, they are not
percepibly disturbing it. Ditching
is plan of hopper warfare which APP
pears to have met with great favor.
Many gardens have been saved in this
way, but for larger crops it is necessary
for number OF neighbors to cooperate
in order to make it success. The coal
oil plan is considered rather tacetious
suggestion. The farmers sop the ground
with coal oil, and the hoppers sit down
there to mediate while they nibble the
grain. The ''carcasses" OF grasshoppers
over which some people have been sc
.jubilant, prove to be nothing but the first
shell which the creature cast OFT IN de-

Dull is the word to express the condi-
ton of business in all its branches. For
the past few days there has not been a
ripple of excitement or activity in the
market. There has been less life dis
played than for many weeks. The
weather has been very hot since our last
report.
The transactions in the flour trade since
Thursday have been unusually light, as
will be seen by the sales quoted below.
Stocks o, all grades are good, but the de-
mand at present is exceedingly light.
Many OF our merchants here, however,
feel confident Of very decided change
vices from agents travelling in the South
for houses here are very encouraging,
and it is asserted that there are prospects
for an unusually heavy business during
the season. Prices on new flour in this
market are easier.
Nearly all the new hay arriving in this
shippers are 10th to take hold of it. All
that comes in good condition sells well.
There Is an abundance OF the heated
stock on hand, but good hay is scarce.
Corn is quiet, and there is very little
coming into market. There is very little
inquiry except by the mill owners, who
cannot get enough at their price, 45c., to
keep them running. Oats are quiet,
though there is fair demand tor choice

light supply of this grade. Nearly all
receipts are of light Southern Illinois,
for which the demand is limited, but
good, sound, heavy new would bring

Meal is quiet. There is no country
meal in the market, neither is there any
demand for it. 81 10 would be "A good
price now, but shippers do not care to
send it in at these figures. City meal is
in fair supply and dull.
All the butter coming into market is
more or less damaged by the extreme
heat, and sells slow, and stocks are con
sequently accumulating, as people here
want nothing but choice. Eggs have to
be disposed of on arrival. The weather
is so warn they would spoil in twenty
tour hours. Should change of weather
come, the market for both butter and
eggs will greatly improve.
There Is a steady demand for old hens
at 81 %; and large spring chickens sell
readily. Small ones are neglected.
BOOSTERS are selling at 81 so per dozen.
Peaches are coming into market slowly,
and sell at the prices last quoted, so
cents per box. They are mostly Of an
inferior quality.
