A FEW peaches came to market last
week and retailed by the quart, in
some cases five and in others ten cents.
1t seemed little odd to men owning
large orchards, but devoid of fruit, to
be themselves purchasing it by the
quart. There are very few however,
who have some to market. Robert
Rawley will have he thinks 300 baskets
from his home farm near Clayton, and
another hundred from a farm in the
Neck. But the luckiest man of the
lot is Mr.. Raisin, in charge of the orch
ard at Woodland Beach, whose crop is
estimated at 600 baskets. These he
picks in quart and half gallon baskets
and sells to tho e4cqTaIonista who
come down from Philadelphia on the
boat at rate that realizes about $500
per basket. Four baskets on Sunday
realized him $14.
Among the lucky number are also
numbered John r. Jefferson down the

WHATEVER doubts and difficulties
there are about the working of the

ballot prove no bar to its easy and
successful working.
The private school of Herman Roe,

best wishes of the people for his sue
cess.

great deal of mercy if not sympathy
for hungry boy in a watermelon

He grew up however, in the day
when peaches, melons &C., were hardly

for growing sugar corn, and the pack
will not be as large as desired.
Tomato packing will also be both
later and lighter than last year. In

18th of August; in 1891 it was the 10Th
and this year it looks as if it would
