Mill a good deal of st.uk here and in
fiht, aud while we 1 iik for a good
demand from now up to the end of tbe
year, it is my opinion that j riies on
ordinary apples will not show any
marked, improvement. A sjell of verv
rold weather in the north would belp
the market a g(.m deal, un it would tend
to slop shipping to some extent. So
far as our reports go, tbe up river ship
(ing sections are now getting cleaned
up on ordinary apples, and though tbe
hipler8 need money, they are not press
ing sales so freely as was the ease two
weeks ago. In the general outlook the

improvement mu! not be lost sight of,

There has been a little improvement
in tbe money situation of lain, and if
this keeps up we are certain to see
