OF QUALITY. !

We're ready to open the medium and
heavy weight overcoat subject when
ever you are. We have got almost an
entire floor full of convincing argu-
ments. More variety than we ever had
-three-four times as much as you'll
find anywhere else-all new coats-not
one old style-all good coats-not a
single garment that's not worthy of your
fullest confidence. We can't see the
sense of cheapening quality for the sake
of c~heapening price. We let the prices
alone and put in more worth. If you
already know THE HUBS values, you
will realize these are better than usual.
If you do not know 'em, you'll say
they'll beat any you've seen. ::::

with a reasonable tariff insure the
citrus growers of our coast reasonable
returns for their fruits for years TO

ton and Philadelphia have purchased
largely of our strictly fancy navels for
their trade, has had much to do with
the light shipments atioat from abroad.

other kinds of produce will be made
direct from the Sacramento river
orchards and ranches. 1t has been de-
cided that it will not do to trust to
one boat every other day. and second
boat will soon be bought so that fresh
produce will be placed on Oakland
wharves every morning at the same
hour that it is now placed in San

handling of the fruit and produce con-
sumed in Oakland by San Francisco
wharfngers, and also the consequent
reshipment and handling in crossing
the bay.

Crop and Market Outlook.

The present outlook is for the largest
crop of fruit ever produced in Califor-
mia, says the Rural Press. The damage
by frost is almost wholly limited to
apricots and almonds and is confined
to few districts. In Santa Clara,
San joaquin county and in the upper
San joaquin valley some orchards
were pretty hard hit. and individuals
have suffered more or less; but in the
aggregate the loss in that region will
not be great enough to appreclably
affect the output.
OF curse there is still possibility
of misnap; but all indications point
to an enormous crop. and there are
those who do not hesitate to say that
it will be too large. For example, MI.
Kinsey, of the Johnson Locke Com
pany, said to Rural writer: 81 be-
lieve we shall have a hundred thou
sand tons of pIunes this fall, and l
don't see how we are going to get
rid of them all at good prices. The
Santa Clara valley, alone, will pro-
duce sixty millions of tons-unless
something not now unlooked-for should
happen. A sharp frost right now
would, in my opinion, be blessing.
by thinning out the trees and limiting
the seasons output"
Others take less radical view of
the situation. mo man can tell, "
said Mr.. Freeman of the Armsby Co.
what the crop will be or what the
price will be. Any estimates respect.
ing either would be the merest guess.
work, though all indications point to a
great yield, and great yield, of
course, means full bins and many
sellers.
Whatever the supply is to be, the
season will open advantageously, in
that all stocks of dried fruit will be
pretty much cleaned up before the
new crop comes in. OF canned goods
there will be about the usual carry
over. The chief consumers of Califor-
MIA dried fruits are Eastern factory
and other wage earners, and our abil-
ity to market big crop profitable is
dependent largely upon the ability of
the working class to buy. There are
many reasons to believe that we are
upon the eve of manufacturing re.
vival, and in the interest of the Cali.
fornia fruit grower it is profoundly to
be hoped that it will come about by
the time our dried fruit crop is ready
for market.

jacksonville Apples.

Albemarle Pippins have been ex-
ceedingly scarce this season, the entire
;rop in Virginia amounting TO but 1000
barrels, says the California Fruit
Grower. OF the single carload of this
fruit which reached New York city
the greater part was exported. The
usual English supply Of this favorite
apple was made up of the similar
Newton Pippin from the Hudson river
district. Five carloads of Newton
Pippins not long ago arrived in New
York city from Oregon and California,
and these, carefully repacked in boxes
holding bushel, have been shipped to
London, where they have been pro-
nounced the best apples Of the kind
seen there this season, and especially
so when nearly two and half million
barrels of apples have been exported
to Great Britain from the United
States and Canada since last August,
and with the best Baldwin and other
standard varieties selling in England
now for $3.50 to $3.50 barrel.
The California apples referred to
L dDONO WC1O 1LOLh W oOoOhNAAAOt
says the S. F. Bulletin. Each box Of
apples contains small fraction over
bushel of apples. The English de-
mand for Pajaro valley Newton Pip
pins has continued for three years, and
the past season,the demand was greater
than the supply, which was not con-
tracted for other deliveries. The Eng
lish trade is bit finicky on the grad
ing of the apples. None bearing
hlemish will be accepted. Each apple
must be of grade size and have a
smooth skin. The Albemarle Pippin
has been great favorite in England,
but there is some quality about the
Pajaro valley Newton Pippin which
has touched the palate of the best trade
of that country, and there has been a
marked call for them each year since
introduction. This is good market
to cultivate, where Newton Pippins
bring nickel apiece when the mar
kets are glutted with other varieties
Offering at one-eighth of the price
quoted for our Newton Pippins. The
value of this market should not be
overlooked, and growers and packers
should care for orchards and take pains
in packing to retain good share of
this distant and valuable market.
Fsir-sized and smooth-skinned Newton
Pippins are the only kind wanted there,
and no other kind should be shipped
there SO long as the trade demands
that quality. 1t is estimated that
these Pippins did not cost to exceed
So. so per bushel landed in London.
While Pajaro valley Newton Pippins
were selling at $3.50 per bushel in
England apples from this valley were
selling at almost as high prices per
box in Hongkong, China, Yokohama
Japan, and at Mexican and Central
American ports. California ships nc
green fruit that reaches more distant
markets than the Pajaro valley apple.

Grand Outlook.

If no unusual calamity intervenes,
California will this year have more
farm produce for sale than in any
other year of her history. says the S.
+. Chronicle. There is perhaps no
reason to expect a repetition of our
greatest bonanza wheat year when a
most favorable season conceded with
a very large acreage of almost virgin
soil, but our area sown in grain is
probably larger than ever before, and
in nearly all parts of the State its con-
dition is all that could be desired. In
the drier districts there is some late
sown grain which will probably be
light, but upon the whole the rains
have been ample and we'll distributed,
and yet not sufficient to induce the
floods which have sometimes rendered
useless our richest lands.
The prices of fruit will very likely
be low, and it is desirable that the
utmost economy be exercised in it's
cultivation and harvesting. 1t is not,
however, economy to neglect any pre-
caution which may tend to improve
the quality of the fruit. In such a
year as we now have the promise of,
there is likely to be very little sale for
small fruit or that which is wormy or
spotted with fungus. The fruit must
be well thinned, and if spraying is
neglected it will be at the peril of a
loss of all profit. The is not
likely to take scabby fruit of any kind
at any price which will pay expenses
of delivery. In regard TO competition
in. fruit, we are not likely this year tc
meet large apple crop at the East,
but we are not yet able to judge of the
condition of the Eastern peach crop
There were apparently we'll founded
reports of serious injury to the buds
from the extreme cold of the winter
but it will be month before anything
definite can be known.
Since the days of the bonanza whea

is evident that the great bulk of pro

a minimum the number of the unem
ployed and increase the home marke
for products not exported. ALI trans
portation companies will be fully EN-
ployed, and this means large sums o
money distributed in wages. For al

reasonable protection. Upon tn
whole, the season opens under condi
tions which may we'll encourage re

its reward will be sure.

California Lemons.
