YAKIMA'S PRODUCTS
IN GREAT DEMAND.
Some Interesting Facts About Our
Hay, Hops, Fruits and
Vegetables.

has only to 90 into the fruit packing
houses west of the track. Everything is
on grand rush from early morn till
dewy eve, and fruit and melon crates
are piled roof-high in the mammoth
warehouses. Cars being loaded with
melons, hay and other produce line the
tracks for several blocks, and still a cry
goes up from the dealers for more cars
to load. The cannery is working over
time in order to keep up with the rapid
ly ripening rrops and have their full
quota of prepared fruits and vegetables
when the season is over.
Prices keep up fairly well. peaches
being quoted at 80 to 60 cents per box.
pears at S5c to Sl.l5. apples $l.lo and
| plums 50 cents.
! Potatoes have not yet come in sulli-
cient quantities to make market quo
tation, but prospects are said to he good
for from SIC to SIS per ton.
Hay is in good demand at following
figures. baled: Alfalfa and mixed, $50
$50; clover, 5000: grain hay, 50; tim
othy. Sl2@l25 The market Is on the
rise, owing to talk of scarcity in other
sections and the fact that one party ha.
already purchased 10000 tons and is
storing it for future reference This
last proposition has caused number of
sheepmen to rush into the market before
corner is effected, for they fear to
take chances on limited supply of feed
tor their flocks the coming winter.
HOPS.
There has been great commotion
among both growers and buyers during
the past week. Probably a larger num-
Der of foreign buyers are here than
ever before but glowers~are ofish and
have high ideas of the value of their
product. OF course no prices are yet
made on the new crop, but Odds are still
quoted at about 22c.
The crop seems to have ripened much
earlier than usual Notwithstanding the
late spring. Several yards, notably the
Mead yard, west of the School Section,
!, and the old Stone yard, in Selah owned
by the Yakima National bank, started
picking last Thursday with full crews.
/ a number of other yards set in the first
of this week, and probably by next Mon
day picking will be general. There is
considerable talk of lice and mold in
some of those yards that are too thor
oughly subirrigated. but the crop gen
orally is acknowledged to be as good if
not better than ordinary.
/ Reports of badly damaged hops in
| Oregon, on the Sound and other points
make the growers here very cheerful,
and they talk of "30-cent hops" and
even higher prices as glibly as though
they already had the prlce in their jeans.
Pickers are plentiful. the $4S5 rate
from Sound points having brought in
large numbers, and if the present ideal
weather continues tie crop can be got
Il i'm in splendid condition.

The committee ON resolutions pre-
scented a report that was adopted con-
graduating Judge Hiram Bigelow,
who retires from the bench in this
circuit, upon his career and wishing
him well.
The roll was then called for the
members of the judicial committee
from the several counties and r. ii
Chesley, of Henry county; w. r.
Church, of Mercer county; j. b. Oak
leaf. of Rock Island county. and c. II

The deal by which Judge Ramsay
triumphcd over Judge Church was fixed
up at a meeting of the Henry and
Whiteside county delegates held in
advance of the convention. Rock ISL
and and Mercer counties, by reason of
their congressional and Legislative re-
lations, were allied against White
side, yet tie combination of Henry

secure the denomination of the White
side iurist.
