Not only haa tha weather been extremely dry. but the mercury haa reglatered aa high aa ltO degreea in the sun, which is very unusual for Bo hemia. "Within tha paat few weeks the stock of old hops on hand haa advanced as much ss 100 per cent In price, ow ing; partly to the fact that an unusual amount of beer ha been aold during the hot weather, the stock of som brewer having been entirely exhaust ed.
