Apple trade has been fair, but no improve¬ 
ment in price is noted and there is no reason 
to expect any at present. Now and then a 
lot of nice fruit from Vermont has brought 
a premium. Nothing finer comes here than 
some of the Vermont Spies. This is an apple 
that there is no use bothering with except in 
localities that just suit it. 1 have noticed 
quite a movement in apples among some of 
the larger grocers and other provision trades¬ 
men. Their wagons are seen loading up here 
and there at commission houses. By stock¬ 
ing up now they can get just the varieties 
that their trade requires, and at a dollar per 
barrel less than later. One apple dealer who 
has made a specialty of handling boxed stock 
for several years is doing some advertising in 
papers that reach the well-to-do class in New 
York and vicinity. He has cold storage fa¬ 
cilities of his own and can put up on order 
boxes of almost any kind wanted. He 
uses three sizes of boxes, 50, 40 and 
25-pound. The last is the same length and 
width as the larger ones, but half as deep. 
At the retail prices asked for this fruit apples 
of medium size cost the consumer two cents 
apiece or a little more: larger ones three to 
five. While trade may bo extended somewhat 
on this basis the prices are too high to ap¬ 
peal to those of moderate means. I have 
seen some cases where the charge for a half- 
bushel box was the same sum as that received 
by the grower for a barrel of the same varie¬ 
ty, fairly well sorted, though not all so large 
and fair as those in the box. But it must 
not be supposed that anywhere near all of 
an average crop for this country could be re¬ 
tailed at such prices. There are not enough 
buyers of this class to take them, and it is 
more than they ought to be charged in a 
year of fair crop. If apple consumption is 
to be much extended sales must be made on 
a small margin.
