NAVAL STORES.

The naval stores trade during the past
two seasons has suffered from the Ill effects
of overproduction. The increase in pro-
duction was of no possible benefit to either
manufacturer or factor. 1t brought less
money although the cost of labor was Just
as high as II has been for several years. In
fact this has been one OF the principal
causes of complaint upon the part OF pro-
ducers, and is claimed that turpentine labor
is the best paid of any class of laborers In
this country. 1t costs SlSe122 to chip crop,
and these high prices offer inducements to
the laborer to work three days in the week
and refrain from work the balance. In the
face of the present low prices manufacturers
claim not TO be able to keep up at such rate
of wages.
1t is claimed that prices are below the
cost OF production. Spirits turpentine
show about an average decline on the sea-
sons business OF So per barrel, while the
decline in rosins was fully Is per cent. The
cause of the increased production is at
tributed to the number Of new manufac-
turers along the line of the new railroads,
while there have been very few of the older
producers retiring. The increase in the
quantity of naval stores will Approximate
fully 20 per cent. which is very large when
1t is considered that the previous seasons
production was the largest up to lat Of the
past year. There was good steady de-
mand throughout last season which was of
course induced by the cheapness of the
article and the foreign demand also in
creased. Factors have done fairly we'll,
although they are carrying over some
heavy balances. The outlook for the trade
is not very encouraging in view of the
advocated by most factors OF fully SO per
cent. or better still that as few boxes as
possible be cut. which, If followed out, in
the end will result in value being obtained
for the product, as well as lettering all
connected with the trade. Wilm lngton
and Charleston have virtually abandoned
the business and 1t will be seen that the
world is dependent for It's supply from this
section of territory entirely.

HARDWARE.

ticularly with interior merchants, who ap-
peared to be pretty hard up all the time.
Trading in this market was only fair. The
new railroads helped to swell the traffic In
hardware, but the effect was not percepti-
bly, felt, owing to the depressed conditions
In other sections, where the business had
fallen of. New railroads, however, are con-
tnutng to develop new business to this
market and bringing merchants here from
sections that have heretofore dealt else
where. From the territory along the lines
of the South Bound and the Savannah and
Western there has been an increase. In the
sea island sections and turpentine regions
there was decrease for the season; that in
the latter territory the depression was far
more severely felt than in others. The
sales of implements in the agricultural
trade was very slow; the demand for pillow
materials fell off considerably. The loss,
however, was not confined to this market,
but was the same all over the South. In
building materials there was very little
were no very large buildings going up, as
was the case couple of years ago, there
were many small buildings erected, afford
ing steady demand for building materials
for this trade is very active. Prices have
ruled steady, with very few fluctuations
during the year, and 1t is believed generally
by the trade that they have about reached
hard pan. AS a whole, however, credits
held up fairly well, and there were no con-
siderable losses. Jobbers are not out OF the
woods just yet, however, as October and
November are the months to best test
credits. Collections are poor just at this
time, which, of course, will continue until
cotton moves more freely.

probably not over 50 per cent, while the
yield Of melons was certainly not over 50
per cent The natural consequence was
that remunerative prices were obtained,
which continued steady throughout the
season. 1t is feared, however, that such a
successful season will prove boomerang to
the growers next year, as some Of the largest
shippers are already increasing their
acreage for the coming season, and it is
estimated that the total increase will reach
fully 100 per cent. But, with the poor re-
ought to be still fresh in the minds ofplant-
ers, 1t is to be hoped that they will profit by
their experience of the past summer, as the
contrast is quite striking. The pear crop
was about so per cent. less than the previous
year, while the prices realized were far in
excess OF it, which, 1t is safe TO say, will
more than pay for the shortness of produo-
ton. The truck and vegetable season is not
considered a successful one, Rs results were
by no means satisfactory. This has proven
TO be the case with Florida growers. The
reason ascTibed for this lie that to a great ex-
tent the seasons for each territory's product
ran together, or in other words, IL resulted
in putting the truck of Florida, Georgia and
Norfolk In competition, and as result
prices of course ruled very low. The weather
conditions in the spring being the i'm
mediate cause of Florida arriving late in tho
market. In country produce there was a
very noticeable increase In the shipments
of eggs and poultry to this market, with
highly satisfactory and remunerative 70
turns to the shippers. The increase ofship-
ments was fully Is per cent, but all ship
ments have found ready market, while
prices were held quite steadily. or all the
