New England Front Yards.

There might be written history Of

begin in the simple time Of the early colo

being familiar with the gardens and parks

selves restricted TO front yards by way OF
pleasure ground. Perhaps they though
such thing. were wrong. and that having

there was time or place for any gardens

New FORKS Potato Market.

The potato market was moved on Oct
9TH from the block bounded by Ninth and
Tenth-avenues, Twenty-ninth and Thlr-
,ieth-streets. to the site Of the burned Man
haitian market The railway company
has erected on this site, along Thirty
fourth and Thrtv-ffth streets, rows OF
brick storehouses 60x4S feet. which the
potato dealers are to occupy and use in
stead Of selling directly from the cars as
formerly.
A Tribune reporter had talks with sew
eral prominent potato dealers and com
mission merchants, recently. i'll regard to
the potato market and its future prospects.
From these it appears that while the sup
ply of potatoes will undoubtedly be light
or than usual, vet the fact of there being a
good crop in some of the provinces, with
little probability of any export to Eng
land, indicates that the price of the popu-
lar vegetable will not rise unusually high
in the coming winter. When potatoes
get to be worth 80 80 to "a a barrel, poor
people use less of them. and more of flour,
beans. oatmeal. and such provisions.
The shortness Of the apple crop. sweet-po-
tato crop. and bean crop, however. will
tend to keep the price OF potatoes up so
that there is probability that the best
stock will sell at from 30 to 81 n barrel
during most of the season. There has
never been such demand for potatoes to
ship to the West. The States of Ohio. In
diana, Illinois. Missouri. Kansas and Ken
lucky have only about one-half the usual
crop. The demand from Southern ports
has also been very heavy. rs they have
been used to drawing on the West for a
supply and now have to look elsewhere.
Michigan and Wisconsin raise a large
quantity of potatoes. and in some parts
the yield is said to be fair. An idea of
the Western demand may be had from
the fact that some Baltimore dealers re-
Gently brought 500 carloads in western
New York in one day for the Western
market. Another speculation on the Erie
road secured 10000 bushels ut 10 cents.
The Long Island crop of potatoes matured
before the drought had damaged it much.
The potatoes were of fine quality. sell
ing at $275 and 80 Large quantitie,
were bought in the eastern end of the
island by spectators at low prices.-New
