THE HOP YIELD
The new hops are now fairly on the market, bat as yet only in limited fjuantibies, and those that have come to hand are to fill orders. As is natural -under the circumstances, there is considerable excitement and speculation as to how prices are likely to rule, though judging from appearances they will be high, in spite ofthe fact that reports from the gardens point to a good yieli and first-class -quality. Fifty bales of New Victorian have realised 4s , and we hear ol a re-sale of twenty bales Struan hops at 4s 6d. Old hops, what few there are, dead of sale, brewers and merchants alike running after the new crop. It is exceedingly difficult to form an idea as to probable prices, although as we said crops in Tasmania atad New Zealand will fee large, stall our own consumption has so increased and prices at home show us much firmness that we may say high prices an the colonial markets are almost a -certainty. — a ustralian Brewer for February.
