Million Pounds.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 23.-The hon
growers of New York State will doubt
less be interested in some recent informa-
ton sent by Consul General Mason to
the State Department with reference to
the deficiency in the hop crop abroad.
A communication was received from
him some time ago, in which he esti-
mated considerable falling off of the
hop crop of Germany, but he now Writes
to say that the deficiency in the produc.
ton will be even greater than has been
anticipated. Even in the famous "Spalter
Land" of Bavaria, where the finest hops
IN Europe are grown, the yield, he says,
VIII not exceed a quarter crop. Other
sections of Germany report only from
one-quarter to one-third of crop.
The hop crop Of Germany on the
whole will be by far the smallest
gathered in many years. The best
ngures ohtainable at the time of Mr..
Mason's report put the total number of
pounds OF the German crop at "a, 800, 900.
His estimate Of the worlds product,
including American 131 ,200,0 900 pounds.
against 15G,729,200 pounds last year
This great falling off in the hop crops
OF the world has created already re-
markable increase in prices. The aver.
age price paid during the first 10 days
in September in Nuremberg was S51. IL
per 100 pounds against $34.51 at the
same time last year and $15.66 at a cor
responding time in 1891.
