4 quiet Without much price change.
Market position of sweet potatoes
was somewhat irregular and unsett-
led with a slightly downward tend
ency. Truckers we're buying at 81
per barrel in Eastern Shore produc-
ing sections. Most sales of sweet pO-
tatoes in eastern markets were be-
tween SOC and 81 a bushel. New
York quoted barrel pack $1.5O to
$1.75.
Firm Onion Market
Price trend Of onions is still up
ward, although recent changes have
been rather small. Sales in western
New York producing sections aver
age above 81 per so pounds for good
stock. Jobbing prices range 81 to
S1.25 in large eastern markets, COM
pared with 75c Ia 81 in many mid
western cities. Michigan producing
sections quote 10c to Csc lower than
eastern shipping points. Demand
shows some improvement but is still
moderate. The rising market seems
based on disappointing yields in the
East and tendency toward small
sizes.
Cabbage prices. unlike those of
onions. were stronger in the Middle
West than in the East. Danish and
Domestic varieties sell at least 81
higher in Wisconsin than in wes-
tern New York. Prices of bulk cab
bage range 80 to S1S per ton in cas-
tern markets. st. Louis quotes Wis
consin cabbage at $1S. Danish stock
sells at $S to SO in the Rochester
district and $40 to $12 in Wisconsin
shipping points. Demand for cab
bage Is reported improving in the
Fast and the distribution Of carlots
has been good. Kraut manufacturers
are paying very low prices.
Celery markets are about steady
at $50 to S1.75 per crate in eastern
New York and s1.75 to $225 in most
city markets. Celery shipments are
increasing and are now little heay-
fer than at this time last year. Pro-
ductiOn Is below average in New
York and Michigan and near aver
age in other late producing states.
Prices of lettuce showed a tend
ency TO ease of a little after the
middle of the month. Not many tops |
above $3.50 per crate were quoted
for western lettuce and most of the |
eastern lettuce was selling at SOC |
to 81 per small crate in New York |
and Baltimore.
Prices Of string beans advanced
sharply after killing frOsts in the
North and arrivals Of southern beans
sold at some markets at high as
$3.50 per bushel. then declined quite
rapidly and most sales the third
week of October we're from $2.75 to
S3.25. Norfolk beans brought SO to
$3.50 in Washington.
Apple Market Active
Supplies of apples are heavy In
most markets and prices only fairly
well maintained. Demand has been
rather slow in the Middle West but
a little in the East, espe-
cially on the best varieties. Most
sales in the large markets ranged
from SOC to s1.25 a bushel. PrOduc-
ing sections quote standard eastern
and southern varieties, such as Bald
win, Greening. Stayman, and York
about steady near 75c bushel bas-
Set in Virginia. New York and Mich
lgan. Markets at Pacific Northwes-
tern shipping points weakened
slightly for some varieties.

peated requests for a new school
point to the rapid growth Of the
community in the last several years
in year-round population as we'll as
in summer vacation visitors. The
Rehoboth school serves a wide dis
trice in Sussex county.
At Milford, said DR.. Holloway, the
need is for an elementary school.
Residents there feel that the condi-
tion of the elementary school puts
the children at a marked disadvan-
tage as compared with the children
of other districts in the State where
there are frst-cIass modern elemen-
tary schools.
Execution Of deeds was authorized
for the following schools which have
been sold: Anderson's and Bethesda
in Kent county, and Halls in Sussex

file final accounts for improvements

Most sales are from $3.25 to 81 a
box. Demand for cranberries Is in
creasing with the progress of the
season and prices average a little
higher. best lots selling mostly $2.75
to SO per \ barrel in eastern mar
kets.
Grapes have shown a slightly
weaker price trend because Of un-
certainty regarding quality since the
reported frost injury in central New
York and other northern producing
sections. Damage from frost in the
Chautauqua- Erie district was esti-
mated at is to 20 per cent. Sales at
New York and Pennsylvania ship
ping points at $40 to s23 a ton for

50 since the middle Of the month.

PRODUCE MARKET NOTES

Higher prices for a-feW heading
products and the seasons harvest
activity have stimulated produce
shipments. Movement of fruits and
vegetables gained about 1900 cars
the second week of October, and
continued in heavy volume after the
middle of the month. Crop lateness
delayed harvest of apples, potatoes
and grapes, which are the leading
lines of produce at this time Of year,
but combined volume is probably
now close to the height Of the sea-
son. Other produce was active for
the time of year. New-crop citrus
fruits. western lettuce and carrots,
and southern snap beans and greens
are becoming market features.
The potato, onion and cabbage
crops are turning out somewhat dis
appointing in quantity and market
quality. Prices of potatoes and on
ions continue to advance during the
first three weeks of October, al
though gains were mostly in the
East. Apples showed a fairly steady
market tone. Sweet potatoes, celery
and western lettuce weakened slight
". Most of the tender vegetables
were selling higher as northern sup
plies decreased but began to decline
again with larger southern receipts.
Early crop prospects are good tor
the southern and southwestern WIN
ter crops. Tendency is to increased
acreage, although early potatoes are
expected to be reduced about 4 per
cent. including nearly 10 per cent
reduction in Florida and Texas. Ex-
pected acreage increases for the 1886
winter crops include one-third for
Florida and Texas beans. and from
Il to 81 per cent increases OF cab
haze in South Carolina, Virginia,
Florida, Louisiana and California.
Florida fall paintings of cucumbers.
eggplant and tomatoes promise good
yields. New-crop paintings OF spin
ach increased probably 20 per cent
I'm virginia and 25 per cent in Ar
kansas. Increased paintings of on
ions are indicated in early southern
and southwestern producing sec
tions. Condition figures of truck
crops in early October were fairly
good.
Potato Market Stronger
Sharp price advances occurred IN
the potato market during the third !
week of October although most OF
the gains were for eastern potatoes
the Green Mountain va
rietv which promises to be in rather |
light supply this season owing to A.,
crop shortage and injury in Maine.
Prices paid Maine growers have
nearly doubled since the time OF
lowest prices last month. owing =,
PARTLY to speculative buying. '
Sacked stock has been selling at
s5c to soc per 400 pounds with good /
demand at country shipping points.
City markets advanced to a jObbing
range Of $1.2O to $1.S5 for this stock.
Eastern Cobblers show smaller
gains and have been selling at 9Oc to
SI.3O. Midwestern markets respond
ID only moderately to news of fur
her freeze damage in the central
Northwest. Many warehouses closed
o avoid taking injured stock and
prices are unsettled until the extent
If damage is determined. Cobblers
yell at soc to $1.10 per 100 pounds
,acked in midwestern markets.
Prices advanced only a little in
Michigan producing sections. Far
