Country-wide Produce Situation 
PRICES NO WORSE 
The price situation has grown but 
little worse since the beginning of the 
year. Prices in such lines as potatoes, 
root crops and cabbage had reached the 
point where many farmers would feed 
rather than ship to market. Accordingly 
the supplies fell off and prices became 
more steady. Potatoes failed to go below 
the dollar mark in Chicago, and the gen- 
eial range for large lots in leading city 
markets is $1 to $1.50 per 100 lbs The 
country range is 50c to $1; lowest in the 
Kick towns of the Great Lakes region 
highest in Western New York, and about 
medium in Northern New England. 
Maine and the Great Lakes region are 
the heaviest shipping sections now. 
I here is some talk of higher prices on 
account of shrinkage of stocks since har¬ 
vest, owing to decay and to throwing out 
ot low-grade stock, which is not worth 
snipping this season from most sections. 
< a "lot shipments are not heavy, consid¬ 
ering the mild weather and the supplies 
supposed to be held. 
APPLES MOVE FAIRLY WELL 
* old storage holdings of apples are de¬ 
creasing fast. The barreled .stock is still 
about 50 per cent, or about a million 
barrels, larger than it was a year ago, 
but \\ estern boxed apples are less than 
last season. The combined excess over 
last year of boxed and barreled stock is 
equivalent to half a million barrels. 
These should sell easily, with prices so 
much lower than last season. Likewise 
whatever common storage stock has held 
up through the mild weather of the 
present season. Most stock is already 
too soft for export, and manv recent 
shipments to Europe have been unprofit- 
«ib!e. Kates of freight and exchange are 
more favorable, but average prices 
apples are lower in British markets. 
Onions average about $1 per 100 
for large lots in the cities and about 
in producing sections. The markets 
draggy, even at the low prices. Cabbage 
prices have -receded again since new 
Texas stock began to appear liberaOv. 
Old cabbage rose to $15 per ton in large 
lots and new for $40 
TWO STATES SUPPLYING CABBAGE 
Most of the commercial carlot supp’v 
of cabbage in late Winter comes from 
New 101 k State and Wisconsin, where 
the long-keeping varieties can be held in 
well-constructed storage houses until late 
8pnng. Demand seems sufficient to take 
care of the comparatively moderate sup¬ 
ply now remaining in condition for long 
distance shipments. _ Prices are holding at 
to .818 per ton in the larger cities, as 
for several weeks past. New Southern 
cabbage shipments fill over 100 cars per 
w eek, and no doubt would be considerably 
larger if prices encouraged extensive lone 
distance shipments. q. b. f.
