The  RURAL  NEW-YORKER 
October  27,  1923 
Market  News  and 
Review  of  Philadelphia  Produce  Market 
The  local  large  market  gardens  and  or¬ 
chards  are  no  longer  supplying  the 
volume  of  fruit  and  vegetables  that  they 
were  a  few  weeks  ago  and  the  carlot  ,-e- 
ceipts  are  increasing  in  importance.  Due 
to  the  cooler  weather  and  frosts,  the 
market  in  general  has  been  in  better 
shape  than  for  sometime  past.  Nearby 
fruits  are  practically  limited  to  apples 
and  a  few  peal's.  and  the  local  growers 
have  no  monopoly  on  them  as  consider¬ 
able  quantities  have  been  coming  in  from 
New  York  State  and  other  fruit  produc¬ 
ing  States.  As  to  apples,  Pennsylvania 
Jonathans,  A2%,  sold  for  about  $4.50  a 
barrel;  A 2 14  Staymans,  $3.50;  and  New 
York  State  2%  Greenings  at  $1  a  bushel. 
New  Jersey  Rome  Beauty,  Staymans 
and  Grimes  Golden  came  within  the 
range  of  50c  to  $1  per  %  bushel  basket, 
according  to  quality,  and  some  Delicious 
brought  as  high  as  $1.25.  The  pear  mar¬ 
ket  has  shown  a  little  weakness,  the  best 
York  State  Bartletts  selling  generally 
$2.50  to  $3  a  bushel,  some  of  the  best 
Seekels  doing  a  little  better,  but  there 
was  a  wide  range  in  the  quality  and  $2 
a  bushel  was  not  uncommon  for  inferior 
stock.  The  grape  market  fluctuated  a 
little,  but  sales  in  earlots  were  generally 
from  67  to  70c  per  12-quart  climax  bas¬ 
ket.  Cranberries  held  fairly  steady  at 
$2  to  $3  a  bushel  box.  There  has  been  a 
good  market  for  potatoes  and  prices 
showed  some  improvement.  Maine,  New 
York,  New  Jersey,  Pennsylvania  and 
Long  Island  contributed,  Green  Mount¬ 
ains  from  the  latter  section  selling  around 
$4  per  150-lb.  sack  and  best  Maine  cob¬ 
blers  and  Green  Mountains  falling  within 
the  range  of  $3  to  $3.25  per  150  lbs.  The 
government  potato  crop  estimate  for  Oct. 
1  show  an  increase  of  nearly  12,000,000 
bushels  since  the  Sept.  1  report,  Maine, 
New  York,  Pennsylvania  and  Michigan 
showing  the  largest  gains.  This  brings 
the  total  for  the  United  States  to  about 
11.000,000  bushels  above  the  5-year  aver¬ 
age  according  to  the  actual  figures  on  es¬ 
timates.  but  some  students  of  economics 
claim  that  when  the  natural  increase  in 
consumption,  due  to  increase  in  popula¬ 
tion,  is  taken  into  consideration,  the  401,- 
000.000  bushels  is  hardly  an  average 
crop.  Cabbage  held  steady  under  mod¬ 
erate  offerings.  York  State  Domestic 
ranging  $20  to  $25  a  ton,  with  Danish 
going  as  high  as  $30  a  ton.  Onions  were 
slow  and  a  little  weak,  best  York  State 
bringing  $3  to  $3.25  per  100-lb.  sack,  and 
Massachusetts  stock  $2.75.  Green  and 
wax  beans  were  in  good  demand,  also 
good  corn  as  most  of  the  stock  offered 
was  medium  to  poor  in  quality.  Mush¬ 
rooms  dropped  about  a  dollar  per  3-lb. 
basket  during  the  week  due  to  too  heavy 
receipts.  Pumpkins  and  turnips  are  be¬ 
ginning  to  sell  fairly  well. 
EGGS  AND  POULTRY 
Egg  receipts  have  fallen  off  rapidly 
and  although  the  decrease  during  the 
past  week  has  been  considerable,  they 
have  exceeded  those  of  a  year  ago  and 
it  seems  to  be  the  general  opinion  of 
commercial  agencies  that  have  checked 
up  on  production  that  the  lay  for  the 
country  as  a  whole  will  be  much  larger 
than  a  year  ago  provided  weather  condi¬ 
tions  are  at  all  favorable.  The  cold 
storage  holdings  are  considerably  heavier 
than  last  year  at  this  time  according 
recent  government  estimates  and  with 
prospects  of  a  larger  production  the  out¬ 
look  does  not  look  any  too  bright  for 
those  holding  storage  eggs.  During  the 
past  week  there  has  been  a  good  demand 
with  a  little  improvement  in  prices  in 
the  Philadelphia  market  on  nearby  and 
Western  extra  firsts,  the  former  selling 
43  to  45c,  and  the  latter  40  to  44c  a 
dozen.  There  has  been  plenty  of  medium 
and  lower  grades  of  eggs  and  these  sold 
slowly,  seconds  ranging  29  to  33c  a  dozen. 
The  demand  for  live  poultry  has  been 
confined  mostly  to  fancy  stock  and  such 
has  been  kept  pretty  well  up  at  firm 
prices,  Plymouth  Rock  fowl  selling  32  to 
33c  a  pound,  and  mixed  breeds,  not  in¬ 
cluding  Leghorns,  29  to  30c  a  pound  for 
the  best,  poor  and  thin  fowl  selling  as 
low  as  20c.  White  Pekin  ducks  _  ad¬ 
vanced  a  little,  fancy  fat  ranging  25  to 
27c  a  pound.  Fresh  killed  fowl  were 
scarce  and  the  market  was  firm,  heavy 
fowl,  barrel  packed,  dry  picked,  whole¬ 
saling  at  32c  after  a  slight  advance  dur¬ 
ing  the  week.  4-lb.  sizes  selling  at  29c 
with  prices  graduating  down  to  22c  for 
small  stock.  Chickens  have  had  quiet 
sale  and  the  market  held  about  steady 
at  33  to  37c  a  pound  for  1%  to  2-lb. 
sizes,  the  heavy  nearby  chickens  bringing 
33  to  34c.  The  cold  storage  holdings  of 
poultry  are  exceptionally  heavy,  esneci- 
allv  on  turkeys,  which  is  likely  to  have 
some  effect  on  prices  later  in  the  season. 
HAY  AND  STRAWS 
The  hay  market  continues  firm  on  de¬ 
sirable  grades.  No.  1  Timothy  selling  $23 
pn»  ton.  and  No.  2  Timothy  and  No.  1 
light  clover  mixed  $26.50.  There  has 
been  practically  no  change  in  straight 
rve  straw  which  brought  $22.50  a  ton  for 
the  best,  while  No.  1  wheat  and  oat  straw 
brought  $16.50.  b.  w.  s.
