raisin making are progressing rapidly. The
grape crop is large and of excellent quality,
the raisn grapes having high percentage OF
sugar. Tokays are going to market in car
oao lots and wine grapes are nearly ready
for the crusher. Prune picking and drying
are IN progress: the crop is large in most
places and OF excellent quality. Late peaches
in the vicinity OF Stockton said TO be A
failure. Other deciduous fruits have yielded
fair crops in most sections but are generally
below average. Almond harvest is well ad-
vsnced: the crop is very light in the vicinity
OF Lodi Oranges at Porterv1lle continue IN
good condition and large crop is probable.
The fourth crop Of alfalfa is OF excellent
quality and the yield is large. The recent
rains in the mountains were beneficial IN re
plenishiug the canals and furnishing a plenti-
full supply Of irrigating water.
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.-Hot, dry
weather prevailed during the week and con-
ditiOns were favorable for raisin making, fruit
drying and bean harvesting. Grapes are yield
the irrigated districts and the quality is ex-
cellent. The decduous fruit crop Is consid-
erably below average. Citrus orchards are
looking well in sections where water Is plenti-
ful. but present indications are that the crop
Will be lighter than expected earlier in the
season. Walnuts continue in good condition,
but the crop Will not be large antici-
pated. Sugar beets al Santa Maria are above
average. Bean harvest continues and the
yield is generally below average. The honey
crop at Riverside is a failure. Late planted
potatoes are making good growth The recent
rains saturated the soil in the foothill and
mountain districts and all streams are running.
Los Angeles Summary--Hot, dry week,
good for bean harvest Citrus orchards look
vel. but the indications are for light crop
OF large size fruit.
Eureka summary.-Cloudy and. foggy
throughout week More hay being baled than
damage to peas on bottom lands. Some blight
in potatoes.

previous estimates of damage, but say the

Ne1O York Stock Market.

NEW YORK. Sept. 6.-The stock market
gave a good account OF itself to-day and
confounded its unfriendly critics by extend
Ing Its already considerable rise and by an
increase in the volume of activity. The mar
ket was under suspicion OF manipulation, as
Il has been for some time. but the advance
in prices was effected without bringing out
any insupportsble burden of genuine selling
The market was spotted all day and during
account of several weak points, but the tone
gained in strength during the course OF the
session and the earlier points OF weakness
were overcome. The principal supply of stocks
for sale came from London and largely
on SFDiHdse account. OWING 70 the more rapid
advance than expected There was some de-
preston in London. however. attributable to
the disappointment at the prospect Of a pro-
longation Of the war in the Far East, with
its burdens on the worlds money markets
United states steel preferred was also a center
of positive depression. The decline of a point
in this security was presumably due to the
prospect OF a reduction in the prices Of steel
products. the effects Of which on the net
earnings Of the corporation is dreaded. But
these influences were effectually contended
with and overcome in spite Of the skeptical
attitude Of the traders toward the market
Commission house business remained at a low
level and the poor bank statement Of Satur-
day induced some selling from this source.
The Pacifcs took the leadership of the late
market. Stress was laid upon the very cheer
ful tone Of railroad traffic officials reports.
The grain movement for last week was seen
both OF trunk lines and OF Western lines were
emphatic In assertions of liberal westward
movement Of all kinds OF merchandise
The good progress OF the corn crop reported
by the Weather Bureaus weekly bulletin was
a factor in the strength Of the grangers and

What with the current HOLIDAYS and the
holding off of buyers for better run ~ the
fall clip the Wool market is very quiet here
at the moment. but It is expected to revive
during the next ten days. Growers are very
firm and conditions are in their favor
The situation in Hops remains about the
same. Trading is light, as the growers are too
busy getting in their crop to attend to the
market. The feeling continues firm Late mail
advices from New York say OF foreign crop
prospects: English cable advices Continued
to report poor crop prospects for the EnrIiSh
crop and reduced estimates to 100000 cut.
There was also report OF a severe storm in
it had damaged the Hop crop. German cable
advices were received saying that the German
market was easier. due 70 the German Hop
crop coming down somewhat heavier than sx
