THE HOP MARKET
Foreign AiVices Indicate a Much
Firmer Tone.

Samples-Many Third Class-Pres.
Jones in Washington

Jas. Winstanley, in charge of the Sa-
lem office of the O. II. q. A. received a
telegram last evening from President
Jones, who is now in Washington, and
who wires that the market in the east IS
firmer.
President Jones will next he heard
from at Chicago where he will stop on
his way home.
Mr.. Winstanley has several offers for
lots Of association hops which he has
taken under advisement.
with the assistance OF Mr.. Carmichal,
the hop buyer, the samples OF hops in
the association office are being classified.
Out of S,9S2 bales already classified by
sample there are 2,473 bales of first
class 2S2O bales second-class; 1884
bales of third class and 1866 bales an
intermediate quality between second
and third.
Mr.. Winstanley is ready to receive
and consider offers for many of these
lots.
New York state reports indicate that
few hops are changing hands at pric es
ranging from to l0lS cents, but there
il little movment and no pressure from
either buyers or sellers.
Reports from foreign markets all indi =
cate decidedly frmer tone. From sew
eral points the meat of the reports is
as follows:
Nuremberg: The frmness previously
noted is well maintained, and the up
ward movement is making steady pro-
gress. Hops graded as secondary at the
opening of the season have now been
advanced TO the first class, and sell. at
corresponding prices.
Alsace Demand is active.
Belgium: The tendency toward
higher prices is well supported.
Borough Trade in the Borough is
still maintained, and decided tendency
TO yards improved values is evidenced.
A similar tone is also noticeable in,
other Continental centres. The demand
for all qualities continues very active
and higher prices are generally obtain
able.
Lupulin in Mark Lane Express.
An increased demand has been felt
during the past week both for home
consumption and for shipment to the
continent and in the absence OF choice
parcels OF hops, good medium and even
lower class English growtbs are now in

fully maintained, and in many cases
growers are refusing TO sell at present t
rates, or are advancing their limits in

1t is sincerely to be hoped that in
connection with the National Horse
Show which will in all probability, be
held in conjunction with the great
show of breeding and fat cattle, sheep
and swine at Chicago in 1900 a street
horse parade will be made a leading
feature of the event.
People open their eyes in wonder
when they behold the great draft
shows and seem to view them in the
light of curiosities rather than from
the standpoint Of utility. What breed
ers want and need in addition to as
tonishing the public by the appear
ance of their show-fitted stalliens~and
teal side of their horse-breeding oper-
ations, and for this street parade Of
working draft horses lis absolutely
necessary. -
The idea is by no means new, as it
has long been established in practice
abroad and to a mall degree here.
1t contemplates a show of draft, geld
ings and mares of the different breeds
and grades by city merchants and
others. 1t would bring out the prac-
teal results and improvement attained
by the use of pedigreed draft sires
among the mares of the country. 1t
would show the geldings and mares in
harness-and a draft horse of any
breed or grade never looks quite SO
we'll as he does in harness and at FORK
-hitched single, double, three-abreast
or four-in-hand. It would also create
a wholesome rivalry among the great
CONSUMERS" Of draft horses to own
and show the best horses in the best
condition and harnesses to the most
attractive wagons and trucks
If such a show should be arranged
viding the premium money, and it
could be confidently expected that the
various. horse-breeding associations in
terested would arrange to provide spe-
cial premiums or medals for winning
horses of their respective breeds.
We hope that breeders will see to il
that this 'idea is not lost sight of, ant
hat a great street horse parade will
be the result.
1t isreported that many range horse!
are being shipped onto the great horsl
markets of the country and some ar,
even going to Europe.

1t is the desire of sheep-growera
nowadays to increase their focks as
rapidly as possible, as sheep not only
bring a better price than they did two
or three years ago, but are likely to
do so for some time to come, says the
Farmer. One of the ways to increase
the flock rapidly is to secure a buck
from some of the large, strong and
coarse-wooled breeds. The Dorset.
Shropshire, Cotswold and Lincoln
breeds of sheep have for ages been
bred by their English originators to
produce twins. If they are bred with
those of the same breed, probably two
thirds or three-fourths of the ewes VIII
bear twins. AS these twins were al
ways favored by breeders, the ten
dency to produce twins was Increased.
Very rarely have we heard OF the
Merino when inter-bred producing
twins. But if there should be such a
case such twins ought to be used as
breeders, as it is a valuable charac-
t~eristic and enables the s~heep-groWer
to increase his flock very rapidly. IN
the olden times when sheep dropped
| their lambs in the fields in early
spring about the only advantage OF
twin lambs was to keep the ewes IN
milk should one of the twins die.

An EngIIshmaH Objects Strongly TO tho

II am well satisfied with the Amer
lean method of education" said an
Englishman residing in New York. "In
fact, for girls, especially, l consider
that 1t is better in many ways than
the English system. l do, however, OBJ
ject to some of the geographical ideas
that they have in regard to England.
Last winter my little girl started to
learn about the states. From October
until May she drew maps of each one,
learned about their towns, rivers,
mountains and commercial products
until she had them ali at her fingers
ends. That was all we'll enough, and
| greatly admired the thoroughness of
the teaching; so this year, when she
told me that they were beginning on
England, Scotland and Ireland, l felt
quite pleased that she should learn all
about the dear old country, and prom
ised myself a good deal of pleasure in
talking to her of my old haunts. Well,
if you will believe it, in about a week
she announced hat they had finished
up with Great Britain and that the

When the state statistician at Jeffer-
son City completed his compilation of
the surplus products of Missouri re-
Gently he discovered that the greatest
gain of the year was in poultry, says
st. Louis Globe-Democrat. His returns
of shipments showed that the Missouri
hen had cause to cackle loudly. Onet
hears a great deal these days about
Missouri's booming zinc and lead in
dustries. All that is claimed for these
wealth-producing factors is we'll
founded. But what tribute is due the
hen when it is realized that the poultry
shipped by rail in Missouri last year
exceeded in value the zinc ore, while
the eggs went the lead ore $25 900 bet
ter? Furthermore, in the case OF the
poultry and eggs, these shipments were
the surplus after the home consump-
ton had been satisfied. And it Isl
claimed that fully half the chickens
and eggs produced in the state do not
find the way to market by rail.
The figures are amazing. The poul-
try product shipped and sold last year
amounted to over 20, 000, 600 pounds. It
realized the producers at first price
$4,900, 600. The eggs shipped were 49,
935, 900 dozens, and they brought to the
people who gathered them from the
nests So, 1893, 900. Poultry and eggs to-
gether yielded to the farmers of Mis-
souri,, after their own tables had been
supplied, 1928, 900. Why! The two
great items of agricultural gain for
Missouri last year, cattle and hogs,
realized, respectively, S34,000,0 900 and
$36, coo, eco each, only about four times
what the poultry did. And they con-
sumed the corn crop, of 1910, 600, 900
bushels, and kept a considerable pro-
portion of. the farmers of the state
doing chores from daylight to dark alb
winter. Where is the farmer who can
figure the cost of his flock of chickens?
The poultry product is the velvet OF
the farm.
The poultry product of Missouri
gained 20,0 00 900 pounds last year.
which meant 81. 500. 900. And the prod
net this year will score a notable adj
vance, the buyers and shippers say.

Let ewes drop their first lambs after
warm weather and grass have come
In the spring. Grass Is the best milk
producer and young ewes need 1t to
enable them to nourish their lambs
satisfactorily. says an exchange. From
the late weaned lambs I would renew
the breeding flock, for l believe 1t Will
be much more satisfactory, for many
reasons, to grow ones own ewes
These lambs, of course, should be OF
the breed desired in the permanent
flock, and for them / should use a
mature ram. The male lambs OF this
crop may be sent to the mutton mar
ket at 10 and IL months of age. II
Merinos, they will sell better when
shorn than in full fleece.
Whether to breed the ewes for a
second crop of eve lambs or not should
be determined by the need of more
ewes. Under Il well-established flock
on this plan, two crops Of lambs or
this class would be required to keep
M the number of the entire flock. The
second Or third crop Of lambs from
any class of ewes / should have
weaned in March.
The age at which a should drop
| ner first lamb depends somewhat upon
the breed, but more upon the care she
has been given. When they have been
pushed to rapid maturity, ewes may
raise a lamb at 2 years Of age. But
they should be fed so al to continue
to grow during their third and fourth
years, which they will do after this
temporary check. If the wool will apv
p~roximately pay for their keeping, I
| prefer they should not raise a lamb
until 3 years old. Raising a lamb will
reduce the fleece 20 per cent in weight
and the possible carcass weight about
10 per cent. Hence, a lamb raised be-
fore the eve is mature is not entire
gain. With her first lamb at 3 years
of age, a w may raise four lambs and
be put upon the market herself fat at
G years of age.
