Country Wide Produce Situation 
NO-PROFIT STUFF—WHY IT IS SHIPPED. 
THE WESTERN APPLE OUTLOOK. NORTH¬ 
ERN TRUCK GROWERS WATCH SOUTHERN 
CROP. 
How much better for producers if the 
poor stuff could be kept out of the markets 
in years when there is all the good produce 
that can possibly be sold at a profit. The 
producers, unless organized closely to keep 
back shipments, will keep on sending 
whatever they have to get rid of. They 
know they are taking chances when they 
do it. They know also that the other chap 
will ship anyhow. 
The New York State marketing inves¬ 
tigators have shown that nearly half the 
fruits and vegetables sold on commission 
in New York City in 18-qt. baskets 
brought less than 50c per basket, and 
one-fifth of it sold at 25c or less. Since 
it apparently costs about 20c average to 
pack and market the produce, some of the 
sales left no net for the producer, and the 
rest of the half show hardly enough net 
to pay cost of production. 
LOW RETURN FOR APPLES 
At the other end of the country there 
is something of the same kind in the 
boxed apple shipping region even though 
state law and local co-operation have kept 
at home the very poorest apples. But 
the lowest legal shipping grade, the “C.” 
is selling at the stations in the Northwest 
at 40-75c per box. Even the 45c boxes 
are sold because they have already been 
assorted, packed, boxed, stored and hauled 
at an average cost of 40c per box, and 
the owner must sell even if he gets back 
only the 40e. If the growers’ associations 
had possessed boldness to act as soon as 
they knew the great size of the crop and 
had decided to pack none of the “C” grade 
this season, the whole apple industry 
might be better off at present. 
BOOM IS OVER 
As it is, many Western orchardists 
are in a bad way after two years of low 
prices, and the selling price of North¬ 
western orchards has dropped to from 
$300 to $000 per acre according to recent 
reports. Prices of orchards used to he 
three or four times those figures. 
THE Wishbone is unquestionably the'best way 
1 to raise chicks. Put every one of your chicks 
under a Wishbone. You’ll get better, stronger, 
healthier chickens. You’ll eliminate losses—the 
Wishbone gives every chick plenty of heat and 
fresh air in any weather. The heat is just where 
the chicks want it. They are bound to thrive 1 
The \\ ishbone is the best brooder money can buy. 
It is simple, economical, and absolutely trouble- 
proof. It has the most powerful burner ever put in 
abrooder. It has novalves.no strainers.no thermo¬ 
stats—nothing to get out of order. NO PRIMING. 
A hot blue flame at the touch of a match. Thou¬ 
sands are in use all over the country—every one 
giving 100# satisfaction, even in coldest Canada.

Still it seems likely the Western orch¬ 
ardists will survive in the long run. Their 
regular crops with yields per acre about 
double the average in the East, their 
highly colored fruit and their very intel¬ 
ligent methods of growing, packing and 
selling are advantages, some of them re¬ 
sulting from climate and irrigation, which 
cannot be cpiite equalled elsewhere. It 
looks as if the boom is very much over 
for the present. For profit, one might 
well prefer a good, well-managed orchard 
within trucking distance of New York 
or Boston. There is seldom a year when 
the apples of such orchards will not pay 
cost and the culls sold for manufacture 
will pay a lot of small bills instead of 
being nearly a total loss, as in the far 
West. 
SOUTHERN TRUCK COMING 
The South is going into early crops 
liberally, but with greater moderation 
than two years ago, when Northern mar¬ 
kets were glutted with shipments from the 
South. The Southern cabbage is already 
about one-third of the market supply, re¬ 
sulting in dullness and weakness in 
Northern cabbage, but the best Northern 
stock still brings $25 or more per ton at 
New York and Wisconsin shipping points, 
which 4s. about the same ^s the price 
quoted in Texas producing sections. 
Southern cabbage brings $15 more per 
ton than Northern in Northern city mar¬ 
kets, but freight charges are heavy. 
Bermuda potatoes began coming some 
time ago and opened the season at about 
$15 per barrel in New York. Florida is 
beginning to ship potatoes but the supply 
will not amount to much until the middle 
of April. I* lorida has 22,000 acres and 
might ship 10,000 carloads from that 
acreage. Such an output would compete 
somewhat with old potatoes, being equal 
to two or three week’s supply of the city 
population of the United States, but 
Southern . supplies are not heavy until 
the ( arolinas and Southern Virginia be¬ 
come active in May. 
ONIONS CLEARING OUT 
Southern onions begin about May. The 
plantings are moderate this season. Prob¬ 
ably the old crop will be mostly cleaned 
up by the time many Southern onions are 
on the market. It seems not more than 
2,000 or 3.000 carloads were left Feb¬ 
ruary 1, and the country uses 400 to 500 
cars a week when prices are moderate, 
as at the present time. Prices in city 
markets range $2.50-$3.00 per 100 lbs., 
aveiaging about the same as a year ago. 
Bed onions are rather scarce. The South¬ 
west likes them and will pay more than 
for yellow stock rather than go without. 
Sweet potatoes are high—$2 or more 
per bushel. The crop was short and not 
so many were stored this season because 
last season was unprofitable. Growers 
of sweet potatoes are not the only pro¬ 
ducers who get out when they ‘ ought 
to get in and stay in when they ought 
to be out. n n e
