Review  of  Philadelphia  Produce  Market 
(Supplied  by  New  Jerssy  State  Department  of 
Agriculture,  Bureau  of  Markets) 
Produce  receipts  from  nearby  sources 
have  been  liberal,  consequently  carlo t  of¬ 
ferings  have  been  light.  The  general 
tone  of  the  market  has  been  dull,  with 
slow  movement.  The  peak  of  the  Elberta 
peach  crop  for  Southern  New  Jersey  was 
reached  about  Labor  Day.  The  demand 
has  been  exceedingly  slow  on  anything 
but  the  fancy  peaches,  very  good  El- 
bertas  moving  at  50  to  60c  per  %-bu. 
basket  when  sold  in  large  lots,  and  Belles 
around  35c  a  basket,  small  lots  of  El- 
bertas  sometimes  bringing  as  much  as  .$1 
i'f  really  fancy,  and  Belles  50c.  Hales 
have  been  topping  the  market  at  50c  to 
$1,  occasionally  $1.50  per  %-bu.  basket 
being  received  for  the  best.  Due  to  the 
many  peaches  on  the  market,  apples  were 
not  quite  as  freely  offered  as  formerly, 
but  there  were  more  than  enough  to  sup¬ 
ply  the  demand.  Wealthy,  Ohio  Beauty, 
Nonpareil  and  Gravenstein  ranged  gen¬ 
erally  25  to  75c,  some  reaching  $1  the 
last  of  the  week  per  %-  bu.  basket,  as  to 
quality,  but  only  well-colored  smooth 
fruit  reaching  top  quotations.  Crabapples 
moved  out  at  40c  to  $1  per  %-bu.  basket, 
while  good  Barlett  pears  sold  fairly  well 
at  K1  to  $1.75  a  basket,  Seckles  at  $1  to 
$1.50,  and  small  cooking  pears  brought 
anout  30c  per  %-bu.  basket  in  the  whole¬ 
sale  district.  The  sacked  potato  market 
has  been  dull  and  weak,  but  the  market 
on  basket  stock  seemed  to  be  a  little 
more  steady,  good  Cobblers  ranging 
chiefly  $1  to  $1.15  a  basket.  Carlot 
shipping  of  Cobblers  in  Southern  New 
Jersey  is  practically  over,  while  in  the 
Monmouth  County  the  marketing  of 
Giants  is  well  under  way.  Prices  in 
Philadelphia  have  declined  about  75c  a 
sack  on  Cobblers  the  past  week,  and  at 
shipping  points  prices  have  dropped  fully 
as  much.  Carlot  shipments  this  season 
have  been  much  lighter  than  for  the  past 
several  years,  only  4,000  cars  being  mar¬ 
keted  to  September  1,  compared  with  10,- 
500  last  year,  6,000  in  1920,  and  7,500 
in  1921.  Sweet  potatoes  have  weakened 
a  little  -with  increased  receipts,  Virginia’s 
and  __  North  Carolina’s  selling  around 
$4.25  a  barrel.  Onions  were  plentiful 
and  the  market  was  slow  and  dull,  No. 
1  yellows  wholesaling  at  $1.25  to  $1.75  a 
bushel,  and  $3.50  to  $3.65  per  100-lb. 
sack  for  New  York  State  stock.  The 
commercial  late  onion  crop  is  forecasted 
at  over  12,643,000  bu.  for  the  country  as 
a  whole,  which  is  a  little  less  than  the 
1922  production,  and  about  one-third 
larger  than  the  1921  yield.  New  York 
State  still  supplies  most  of  the  lettucce, 
although  some  Iceberg  lettuce  is  coming 
from  California  and  Colorado.  The  late 
lettuce  crop  will  be  a  large  one  if  weather 
conditions  permit,  the  government  esti¬ 
mates  for  New  York  State  alone  showing 
an  increase  of  nearly  1,000  acres,  while 
Colorado  will  likely  more  than  double  the 
997,000  crates  produced  in  1922.  Pep¬ 
pers  have  been  very  slow  and  Lima  beans 
showed  a  wide  range  in  prices,  best  sell¬ 
ing  up  to  75c  per  %-bu.  basket,  and  some 
poor  spotty  -stock  going  as  low  as  25c  a 
basket.  Some  canning  factories  in  South¬ 
ern  New  Jersey  have  been  paying  around 
$130  a  ton  for  Lima  beans  delivered  at 
the  factory.  There  is  beginning  to  be 
just  a  touch  of  Fall  in  the  products  of¬ 
fered.  Pumpkins  have  made  their  initial 
appearance,  and  a  few  cranberries  have 
already  been  seen  on  the  market,  and 
grapes  are  more  plentiful. 
EGGS  AND  POULTRY 
While  Boston  is  known  as  a  brown 
egg  market,  and  New  York  as  a  white 
egg  market,  the  average  Philadelphia  con¬ 
sumer  seems  to  care  little  whether  the 
eggs  are  white  or  brown,  provided  they 
are  fresh.  There  is  a  demand  for  the 
large  chalk-white,  light-yolk  eggs,  but 
this  is  limited  mostly  to  special  trade. 
Consequently  the  henneries  producing 
white  eggs,  as  many  of  them  .do  in  Penn¬ 
sylvania  and  New  Jersey,  ship  to  the 
New  York  market.  During  the  past  few 
weeks  there  has  developed  a  shortage  of 
the  finer  qualities  of  new-laid  eggs,  and 
the  market  has  advanced  to  35c  for  near¬ 
by  and  Western  extra  firsts.  Lower 
grades  have  been  plentiful  and  of  irregu¬ 
lar  value,  seconds  selling  as  low  as  25c 
a  dozen. 
The  Hebrew  New  Year  is  observed  on 
September  11  and  12,  and  just  before 
these  holidays  there  is  a  good  demand  for 
large  fat  fowl.  The  supply  has  hardly 
be»n  equal  t0  the  demand,  and  prices  ad¬ 
vanced  a  little,  fancy  Plymouth  Rocks 
bringing  31  to  32c  per  lb.,  and  mixed 
breeds,  excluding  White  Leghorns, 
brought  22  to  28c,  according  to  quality. 
Spring  chickens  were  dull  and  the  market 
weak,  declining  3c  per  lb.  during  the 
week,  but  recovering  slightly  under  a 
more  active  demand  just  after  Labor 
Dn  v  Plymouth  Rocks  wholesaled  at  31 
to  33c  for  the  best,  and  White  Leghorns 
24  to  28c.  White  Pekin  ducks  were 
steady  at  20  to  25c  per  lb.  The  receipts 
of  desirable  fresh-killed  fowl  have  been 
limited,  and  there  was  no  difficulty  in 
maintaining  values  all  during  the  week. 
Fresh-killed,  barreled-pac-ked  fowl  were 
steadily  held  at  30c  for  4%  to  5-lb.  size, 
but  small  light  fowl  sold  as  low  as  ISc 
per  lb.  Prices  on  broiling  chickens 
showed  very  little  change!  Choice  slock 
sold  fairly  well  with  nearby  going  mostly 
at  33  to  38c  per  lb.,  occasionally  some- 
tning  hue  selling  at  better  prices  than 
quotations. 
IIAY  AND  STRAW 
Hay  and  straw  prices  have  held  steady 
for  some  time.  The  market  has  been  firm 
on  the  better  grades,  No.  1  Timothy 
wholesaling  at  $28  a  ton,  and  No.  2  Tim¬ 
othy  and  light  clover  mixed  at  $26  to 
$27.  Straw  was  unchanged  at  $23  for 
straight  rye,  and  wheat  straw  at  $14  to 
$14.50.  Very  little  No.  1  bay  is  being 
offered,  and  receipts  of  new  hay  were 
light.  b.  w.  s.
