Review of the New York Produce Market 
Emits, especially berries, attracted 
considerable attention in the wholesale 
market hist week. Strawberry receipts 
were comparatively light in the Eastern 
markets, and dealers wishing to secure 
fancy berries were obliged to pay good 
prices for them. Southern New Jersey, 
Delaware and Maryland growers are fast 
••leaning up. and the light offerings front 
these States were mostly very ordinary. 
Consequently the New York State 1 grow¬ 
ers have been supplying the best straw¬ 
berries*. Chesapeake and Gandy from 
the Lower Hudson River station and 
many of the up-river berries wholesaled 
30e to 10c per qt.; poorer stock selling 
as low as 15c per qt. Raspberries de¬ 
clined under heavier receipts, the best 
coming from New Jersey, the light ship 
ments from the Empire State generally 
showing poor quality. Pennsylvania 
huckleberries have been on the market 
only a few dav. competing with the more 
numerous offerings from No th Carolina ; 
those from the latter State ranging 25c 
to 35c. and from Pennsylvania 35c to 
40e per qt. on Juno 19. Cherries were 
more plentiful, and although large-size 
cherries of good color were in active de¬ 
mand. ordinary cherries moved rather 
slowly. Latest report*! indicate that the 
set in New York Slate is not as heavy 
as it. was first anticipated, ami many 
growers who have not sold are holding 
for higher prices than the canners origi¬ 
nally contracted for earlier in the season, 
Seven to eight cents a pound seems to 
hi 1 about, the price the growers am hold¬ 
ing for at present. Buyers showed hut 
little interest in 1921 apples. A few 
green apples arrived from Delaware, 
which sold at from 50c to $1 per basket. 
High-grade 1 peaches moved well, the fancy 
lliley Belle from Georgia selling gener¬ 
ally $4 to $5 per crate. 
POTATO RECEIPTS HEAVY 
Over 800 carloads of new potatoes were 
received on the New York market for the 
week ending June 17. Most of them came 
from North Carolina and the eastern 
shore of Virginia. South Carolina is 
about through digging, after having mar¬ 
keted over 4.100 carloads, or over 1 ,<>00 
carloads more than last year. < >n June 
33 best Cobbler potatoes from oustern 
shore of Virginia wholesaled up to $<!.>»> 
per bnrrel, and a week later potatoes 
from the same section were selling at 
$4 to $4 25 per barrel. Virginia was a 
little late III getting her potatoes to the 
market, causing a gap after the peak 
movement of North Carolina. This re¬ 
sulted in Irish Cobblers reaching $6.50 to 
$7 per barrel in the New York wholesale 
market around June 10, hut as soon as 
supplies were again more liberal prices 
dropped steadily. Reports from shipping 
sections slate that there is an improve¬ 
ment in the demand, as haulings have 
been light on account of weather con¬ 
ditions. Under these conditions a relic¬ 
tion in consuming markets is likely. A 
few potatoes were marketed locally by 
New Jersey growers last week. There 
was but little interest in old potatoes, 
although Maine shipped around 85 car¬ 
loads to the New York market for fne 
week of June 11 to 17. the best gener¬ 
ally wholesaling at from $2.25 to $2.50 
per 150-lb. sack. 
l'ennsylvania and New Jersey aspara¬ 
gus growers have had a good season. 
With cool weather prevailing during the 
early part of the season, supplies were 
not excessive, and prices did not drop 
to the usual low levels. In fact, the mar¬ 
ket showed some strength lust week.. Now 
Jersey green advancing to $5 to $6 per 
dozen bunches, and Pennsylvania selling 
up to $7 per dozen hunches on June 17. 
but these prices were not maintained the 
following week, as the condition of the 
new arrivals averaged poorer, due prob¬ 
ably to rain. 
EGGS 
The egg market was in an unsettled 
condition last week. Receipts were 
heavier than the current trade demanded, 
and many dealers placed considerable 
quantities in public warehouses. Prices 
on practically all grades of Western 
fresh eggs declined. • >n Saturday, June 
17. the net gain into storage in New 1 > rk 
City was 11.915 cases, making 1.511.317 
cases on hand on that date, compared with 
1,256,200 cases on hand the same date 
last year, according lo the statistics of 
the United States Bureau of Market and 
Crop Estimates. Supplies of near-by 
white eggs have also been liberal, many 
jobbers reporting a surplus "I ordinary 
grades, the hulk of which probably sold 
from 27e to 32c a dozen. Quotations <>< 
the strictly fancy eggs showed blit little 
change. A few of finest candled New 
Jersey eggs sold up to He per dozen to 
very critical buyers, hut the majority of 
the extra qualities had little value above 
3,8c to 39c a dozen on the wholesale mar¬ 
ket. Best near-by brown eggs ranged 
generally 31c to 34c a dozen for the week 
ending June 19. 
POULTRY 
The demand for live 1 fowl Inis been 
fairly good, with express offerings hold¬ 
ing steady at 26c to 27c lb., and freight 
shipments about lc lower. There was 
the usual seasonal increase in receipts 
of live broilers, blit the demnml was fairly 
good, and dealers had little trouble in 
disposing "f them at prevailing market 
prices, hut with increased offerings com 
ing in. a weak market inav he expected. 
Du June 19 express broilers, colored, 
ranged from 15c to I T< per lb., the Boston 
broilers bringing the highest prices. 
White Leghorns sold at from 30c to 3.8c 
per lb . as to size. Fresh-killed broilers 
from near by sources were in free supply, 
but offerings generally worked out well 
at from 35c to 55c per lb. Fvesli-killed 
fowl were also more plentiful, and prices 
averaged a little lower, excepting for the 
light offerings of near-by, which ruled 
about steady at 27c to 32c per lh. for 
dry-picked fowl weighing 4 lbs. and 
under.
