peaches is reported from many sec
tons and the peaches already in oul
market from Georgia are of excellent
quality.
The writer took thoroughly ripe
peach from a tree on his place in New
j rsey on The Fourth of July, and has
several trees now with ripe fruit which
is quite unusual for that State so early
as this
It certafnIy is much more satisfac-
terry to all concerned IN the sugar trade
10 do business on rising markets for
/ both raws and refined as is the case
( this season rather than on falling mar
! kets $ was the case last season.
t Everybody can buy and carry stock
largely without fear of loss from de-
clning markets.
| The amount of raw sugars which will
| De required from distant lands will
| held the markets steady at least for
the remainder of campaign with the
certainty that any changes of import
ance viii be on the side of advancing
prices.
Receipts for the week are 15,052 tons,
MEETINGS 10000 tons and total stocks in
the United States and Cuba together

that this years stock in United States

years.
The Cuba crop figures make no
change calling fer special comment.

The amount of sugars suitable for
shipment is constantly decreasing, of
course, and some holders may now find
il to advantage to delay selling until
later in the season.
