The California Orange Crop.

The California Orange Crop.
The orange market Of southern Cali
fornia is in q peculiar condition. The
largest crop on record is on the trees
awaiting shipment, amounting probably
to $500 carloads, against $500 last year
and 1900 for the previous season. Only
q few hundred carloads have been shipped
so far.
1t has been reported that there is a
combine among southern California
orange growers to hold their crop for $S
q box. This is only true to a limited ex-
tent. There is no general combination
among growers. Local unions have been
formed in several localities to maintain
prices and facilitate shipments, but these
only represent a portion of the crop and
do not work in unison. The most im-
portant of these unions is that of River
side, which represents seven-eighths of
the crop of that place, or about 1,7oO
boxes. The rest of the crop controlled by
local organizations will probably bring
up the aggregate so held to about $500
boxes, or less than half the total crop.
Buyers are holding off. being unwill.
ing to consign while the eastern pur-
chasers are not inclined to risk buying.
The weather in the East has been very
cold. and there is still a large quantity
of good Florida fruit to be shipped;
hence there is at present a sort of deal
lock. Local firms are offering for choic-
est Riverside navels $3 per box at the
shipping point aud lower, according &c
quality. and for ordinary San Gabriel
valley navels $l.15 is about the best
price obtainable, which does o satisfy
the growers.-Cor. San Francisco Chron

Admission Tickets For the worlds Fair

Admiration Tickets For the Worlds Fair.
For a week the bank note factories at
Dalton, Mass. have been making pecu-
liarly distinctive paper that is to be used
for tickets of admission to the Worlds
fair. The first order, which was for
5000. 900 tickets, has been shipped to New
York so that the American Bank Note
company may have time for the elabo-
rate engraving on the ticket. 1t is ex-
pected that many will be sold as sou-
venirs. To guard against counterfeits it
has been decided that between the sheets
of paper of which the card is composed
there shall be scattered planchets of It's
sue paper. These ~planchets are of differ
emit sizes. the largest az big as a pin head.
They are of three colors. blue. pink and
salmon. the shades being plainly dis.
cernible through the thin paper on both
sides. The planchets are not scattered
all over the card. but simply in a row less
than an inch wide across from top tt
bottom. The tissue eut In these little
disks is expensive, and considerable will
be saved by using them only in the cen
ter of the ticket. The chief reason TO,
placing them in this way Is the increases

weather Crop nallesin.

OF South Dakota for the week ending
July 81, 1892:
The temperature during the week was
below the average, and the amount OF
sunshine about the average. Beneficial
showers, although in some localities
light, have occurred in nearly all coun-
ties, and have benefited late wheat,corn,
fax, potatoes and grass.
Wheat and oat harvesting is general,
and is being rapidly pushed, as the warm
sunshing weather has ripened the grain
very rapidly.
The weather has been favorable FOR
harvesting.
Corn is doing fairly we'll generally, and
in many counties finely. More rain
would be beneficial in promoting full
caring. Sweet corn roasting ears in the
