L. A. Price. writing from Bordeaux.
France. under date of June 10th, to the
California Fruit Grower gives the Follow
ing interesting news concerning the fruit
crop of France, particular attention being
paid to prices:
Some alarming reports were recently
circulated in regard to the crop. At GER
tain period, it is true, the crop seemed to
suffer from the May fogs, but the injury
is not as serious as was at first feared; on
the contrary, If hail does not arrive 10 de-
stroy the hopes of the farmers in the pres
ent perspective, we may count on about
double the quantity of prunes of last year
with an increased percentage of the larger
sizes. In some districts the fruit on the
trees is very fine and promises to develop
adyantageously under the favorable
weather which Is now prevailing.
News received from various districts
permit me to estimate the crop at about
100000 French quintals, equal to 90. .000 900
English pounds. The larger Sizes from
present outlook. will compose the best part

favorable or unfavorable.
Otner rruit Will be scarce, chiefly pears,
peaches, apricots and cherries. The apple
trees have the advantage over other fruit
trees. and the yield as far as have been
able to learn, will be q good average one.
., The vines are in splendid condition;
tne dry. hot weather was favorable to the
vines. during March, April and May. and
the occasional rains prevailing of late add
to the increased beauty of the vines. II

Is very remarkable. as are also its qualities

further advantage is the considerable

CHICAGO MARKET
The Days Transactions on ths Board of
Trade


CHICAGO. July 14-A decided improve
ment in the volume of trade was noted to-
day. The opening was rather easy, and
there were light recessions, due to heavy
local and northwestern receipts and the
weak New York stock market. But there
was little for sale, and the market quick
lyhardened. The advices from the north
west all tended TO show increasing serious
ness of crop damage the short interest ge-
gan to cover and there was good invest
ment buying, under which the movement
was pretty steadily upward. The Brad
streets statement of the worlds visible
showed a net decrease of 2011, 900 bushels
in the worlds stocks as compared with a
decrease of Sl71,000 on the corresponding
week of the year before. That threw u
dampner OH the bullsh sentiment and
caused the price of September to sag grad
ually back. There were plenty of buying
orders at the decline, anG>et did not take
long to clear up all the offerings. This
sent the market climbing in quick order
again, and the close was at top prices.
oCrn showed decided strength, being in-
luenced by the bad crop reports, the mod
crate local receipts and the expected re-
duction of lake and rail rates today, Oats
were active. but largely on local account.
Crop advices are unfavorable. and the
market was also helped by the advance in
corn and wheat. Provisions-Only mod
crate trade. Prices We're somewhat strong
and at the opening with tl-S.tirm hog mar
ket. but offerings We're liberal and heavy
feeling was soon induced. The final rally
IN grain started prices up again, and the
closing was steady at nearly the high
point.
The leading futures closed as follows:

fectly wise. they must take medi-
cines to keep themselves perfectly
