We have aimed to make the above table
reasonable, aud we think those familiar
with the yield and the prices of fruit, will,
upon examination, say it is so. If it be a
reasonable calculation, what business is
there in which one can engage with better
prospects of h rich reward? =?
There may be some engaged in fruit
raising who imagine that, if the produc-
ton of fruit is increased here, their busi-
ness will be injured; bat such is not the
case. The more there is raised here the
better market there will be for it The
writer has ten acres in fruit, and would
like to see every available spot in this vi
cinity set to fruit.
The age of " hog and hominy I" has passed,
and The people want, and Will have, fruit.
Here is the best place in the world to raise
it for profit. Let individuals or incorpor-
ated associations come here and examine,
and, being satisfied, let them plant their
orchards and their vineyards, thereby
making money for themselves and keeping
hundreds of thousands of dollars, now
sent east and to California for fruit, at
home, where it win do the most good.

AnOther account.

New York, Jan. GA Paris special gives
the following account Of Gambetta's
funeral:
Since the funeral of Theirs, no such
tribute has been paid to the remains of a
public man as that which brought the
population of Paris into the streets this
morning. It was evident from the eager
ness and anxiety manifested that they
were moved by deeper feeling than that of
desire to witness an imposing and
unusual spectacle. The ordinary impulse
of curiosity which sways the masses on
such occasions, had given place to pro-
found and unmsasured grief which the
loss of tried public servant and bene-
factor, sprung from their own ranks, always
evokes in the popular heart. In front Of
the catafalque on the platform, borne on
the shoulders of twelve men, was colossal
bust of Gambetta surrounded by flowers
artistically arranged to represent the ma
tional colors. This was preceded by three
chariots, richly decorated, and bearing
crowns and garlands sent by the different
cities and towns of France. The pail
bearers were NM. Fallieres, minister of
the interior; Billot, minister of war; Bris-
son, president of the chamber; Peyrat,
vice president of the senate; Meliyer, rep
resenting the electors of Belleville; Fala-
teur; representing the bar of Paris; Sierece,

feature Of the week was the non-anxiety of
about their fgures-that is there was no
deposition on that part to follow closely
the breaks in prices consequent upon
speculative manipulation, and for this
reason the purchases on consumption &C
count were not 30 large as they otherwise
would have been, as there were good
many inquiries both from foreign and do
nestle points.
Hogs have came in moderately free, have
been good in quality and have command
ed rather steady prices, as compared with
week ago. The changes in values are
hardly worth anything. There is very lit
tie question but that the situation is just
now very prospecting to the trade in
general, and the future is full of uncer
tainties. We started into the new season
with very small stocks, and with fair pro-
poets of good demand for product and
only moderate crop of hogs. On this
hypothesis operators did not foresee any
possibility of serious break in values,
but break occurred, and very serious
one, too-so serious, in fact, that many who
were bulls when prices were much higher
are now bears. At inside prices, they have
lost all confidence. In fact, the bears have
been so successful, that,while in the minor
ity, they seem to have absolutely held the
majority in awe.
To date the packing of the West is only
about 100000 head short of
the corresponding period year ago. But
it must be remembered that last season
was very short one, that we produced less
than we consumed, beginning the present
season with considerably smaller stocks
than year previous. If we produce as
many pounds of product this season as last,
which is likely, we shall then be short.
The country is growing rapidly and is con-
Stunning more and more each year, SO that
the production to equalize the situation
should also show an increase steadily.
There has been and is to-day large con-
sumptive demand, and the country does
not contain nearly as many pounds of pro-
duct as it did year ago.

Especial Telegram to the Globe.
JOLIET, Ill, Jan. 6.-Seated in the work
room of the women's department to-day
were some fifteen or twenty female con-
victs, with their faces to the wall and backs
toward the door, SO that visitor could not
obtain a view of their faces. They were
all dressed alike, in the checked prison
dress, looking tidy and neat. Near the m
on the floor lay great heaps of unfinished
socks, upon which they we're at work fin
ishing the toes. The women wore their
hair the usual length, which was rolled
up and pinned into a small knot on
the top of the head. There were no signs
of bangs, frizzes or curl papers on any Of
them. The latest arrival, Theresa Sturla,
sat near the middle of the row of women,
and looked as though she were deeply
interested in her work. Her shapely
hands handled the socks and piled the
needle with dexterity. Not once did she
party of visitors standing at the door.
Near Sturla sat several noted female
criminals, Wilhelmina Look, the MUIR
deress, in for life from Kankakee, and
Minnie Monk, the golden haired little
German house thief, recently sent from
Chicago. There we're also several colored
women among them. None of the party
would compare faYorably with Langtry
as to beauty, Sturla being the best looking
of them. Approaching Mrs. Ayres, the
prison matron, your correspondent said:
Glow is Theresa Sturla getting on? Do
you have any trouble with her?''
"Oh no." replied Mrs. Ayers. ''She is
doing nicely. Indeed, she seems ready and
willing to do cheerfully whatever work 1
have asked her to do.'
els it not rather hard on the hands to
sew those socks?
swell, at first it is rather hard on the
fingers, but Sturla is doing splendidly.
Why, yesterday she finished twelve dozen
pairs"
What do you consider fair days
work?'
so, some of them finish twenty dozen
pairs easily; that is about the task we ex-
pect them to do, Sturla thinks she will be
able to do as much as any of them in few
days."
