The  RURAL  NEW. YORKER 
September  22,  1923 
Market  News  and 
e  s 
Review  of  the  New  York  Produce  Market 
(Supplied  by  New  Jersey  State  Department  of 
Agriculture,  Bureau  of  Markets) 
The  season  is  progressing  rapidly  and 
Fall  products  are  beginning  to  arrive. 
Barreled  apples,  mostly  from  New  York 
State,  are  coming  in,  mostly  in  small 
lots,  Wealthy,  Wolf  River,  Alexander, 
Gravenstein  and  McIntosh  being  some  of 
the  principal  varieties.  The  demand  for 
barreled  apples  was  generally  light,  and 
the  market  on  basket  stock  was  dull,  al¬ 
though  just  before  the  Jewish  holidays 
there  was  a  good  demand  for  fancy  red 
apples.  Peaches  were  steady  to  firm  on 
good  stock,  large,  well-colored  peaches 
selling  well,  but  considerable  quantities 
of  over-ripe  stock  found  a  slow  market. 
The  middle  of  September  will  see  the 
New  Jersey  Elbertas  about  cleaned  up 
and  Michigan  growers  shipping  quite 
heavily.  New  York  growers  have  but  just 
begun  picking  peaches  and  are  still  ship¬ 
ping  mostly  white  varieties.  The  sup¬ 
plies  of  Eastern  pears  were  limited  and 
movement  generally  light,  with  bushel 
stock  holding  about  steady,  No.  1  Seckles 
selling  at  $2.25  to  $2.50  per  bu.,  and 
Ilartletts  brought  about  $1  more.  East¬ 
ern  grape  offerings  were  rather  light,  but 
receipts  were  quite  liberal  from  Califor¬ 
nia.  The  season  is  still  a  little  too  early 
for  buyers  to  show  much  interest  in  them 
and  the  market  has  barely  held  its  own, 
eight-basket  crates  of  Delawares  and  Con¬ 
cords  selling  mostly  from  $1  to  $1.25  a 
crate.  The  potato  market  has  been  un¬ 
satisfactory.  Supplies  were  mostly  from 
New  Jersey  and  Cong  Island,  about  two- 
thirds  of  the  c-arlot  receipts  coming  from 
the  latter  place,  as  well  as  considerable 
quantities  which  were  received  by  truck. 
Very  few  potatoes  have  been  received 
from  Maine,  and  it  is  a  little  too  early 
for  much  competition  from  New  York 
State.  The  movement  has  been  draggy 
and  prices  declined.  Long  Island  growers 
have  been  getting  about  $1.25  per  bu.  for 
Green  Mountains  at  shipping  points,  and 
best  Cobblers  brought  around  $3  per  150- 
lb.  sack  at  shipping  stations  in  New  Jer¬ 
sey.  New  Jersey  is  practically  through 
shipping  Cobblers  and  it  is  likely  that 
over  75  per  cent  of  the  potato  shipments 
have  already  left  Monmonth  County  and 
vicinity.  Sweet  potatoes  have  been  weak, 
due  to  the  liberal  offerings  from  Virginia 
and  Maryland.  Too  many  coarse  string 
beans  were  in  evidence,  and  only  tender 
beans  had  any  call.  Several  carloads  of 
Danish  cabbage  were  received  from  New 
York  State,  as  well  as  domestic,  but  there 
was  a  downward  tendency  to  the  market 
all  the  week,  cabbage  dropping  at  least 
$10  a  ton.  Sweet  corn  was  very  quiet. 
(  'a r rot  s  were  slow  and  weak,  also  cucum¬ 
bers.  Lettuce  has  been  slow  and  selling 
at  low  prices.  Tomato  receipts  were 
heavy  and  the  market  generally  in  poor 
condition.  Onions  showed  a  little  activity 
for  a  day  or  two,  but  soon  steadied  down¬ 
ward. 
EGGS  AND  POULTRY 
Egg  supplies  have  been  decreasing 
steadily  for  several  weeks,  government  re¬ 
ports  for  the  month  of  August  showing 
that  there  was  a  decrease  of  nearly  70,000 
cases,  compared  Avith  the  July  receipts. 
This  is  nor  unusual,  comparison  for  the 
same  months  for  previous  years  showing 
a  decrease  of  about  04,000  eases  in  1921, 
only  abour  8,000  in  1922,  and  nearly  100,- 
000  in  1920.  During  the  past  week  there 
has  been  a  sharp  advauce  in  prices,  espe¬ 
cially  on  the  finer  qualities  of  fresh  eggs. 
Receipts  have  shown  further  decrease  and 
the  demands  of  the  trade  have  been  ur¬ 
gent  enough  to  maintain  the  advances 
made  early  in  the  Aveek.  There  is  al¬ 
ways  a  greater  demand  for  fresh  eggs  in 
Noav  York  after  Labor  Day.  The  medium 
and  poor  grades  were  rather  quiet,  as 
they  came  in  competition  Avith  refriger¬ 
ator  stock.  Considerable  quantities  of  re¬ 
frigerator  eggs  have  been  used,  but  mostly 
from  dealers’  own  stocks,  and  very  little 
trading  Avas  done  in  the  open  market. 
The  preliminary  report  of  cold  storage 
holdings  for  the  United  States  as  issued 
by  the  United  .States  Bureau  of  Agri¬ 
cultural  Economics  for  September  1, 
1925,  show  9,800,000  cases  on  hand,  com¬ 
pared  Avith  9,008,000  cases  a  year  ago. 
This  shoAving  Avas  someAvhat  better  than 
generally  expected,  and  it  had  a  tendency 
to  strengthen  the  market.  The  five-year 
average  is  7.428,000  cases. 
The  demand  for  live  poultry  for  the  Ile- 
br<  v  holidays,  September  11  and  12,  cre¬ 
ated  a  good  market  for  live  fowl  and 
heavy  chickens.  Receipts  have  been 
heavy,  but  thpy  Avere  well  taken  care  of, 
with  values  showing  some  improvement 
over  the  previous  Aveek.  Light  Aveight 
fowl  were  draggy,  also  small  chickens,  as 
only  fat  poultry  is  wanted  for  the  holiday 
trade,  as  the  fat  is  used  in  cooking.  Long 
Island  ducks  sold  on  a  firm  market.  On 
September  20  another  IlebreAV  holiday  is 
observed.  Avhen  live  chickens  and  roosters 
are  especially  in  demand.  The  best  mar- 
let  days  should  be  September  17  and  18. 
Plenty  of  fresh-killed  poultry  Avas  re¬ 
ceived,  but  receipts  from  nearby  were 
light.  Choice  stock  has  been  selling  fair¬ 
ly,  but  the  market  in  general  has  been 
sloAv  and  weak  on  practically  all  lines. 
HAY  AND  STRAW 
Hay  receipts  shoAved  some  increase  last 
week,  but  the  heavier  supplies  were  pretty 
well  taken  care  of  until  toward  the  close, 
when  a  slow  and  easy  market  developed.
