Market Tips
Source Of Produce Shifts
To South During Winter;
Local Cauliflower Stays
By LEROY B. INMAN
Business News Dipt. Editor
Product sources are shifting
; further south in California and to
' Mexico with the winter season.
' Caulitlower, turnips, rutabagas
! and squash are the only Roseburg
1 area crops still on the market.
Local carrots are all cleaned up.
. While some are available from
Portland, the better ones are out
', of California, with the market get-
ting stronger. The quality is good.
' Local cauliflower is very good
lint the weather has prevented
' much of it from maturing and the
' supply is inadequate to meet local
' needs. Some has to be shipped in
I from California.
Tha potato market continues
'. steady with little activity nuted at
this time. The same holds true for
' dry onions. Yams and sweet po-
tatocs have come up somewhat, as
; they aro now all out of storage and
. storage costs must be added to
the selling price.
Tha lottuce market is gaining
slrenath. Demand for the heavier
; heads far exceeds supply. The
smaller heads are so immature
, there is very little weight. This
will continue until new licius oe
vcloo in California.
Romaine and endive are very
good and plentiful, but Red let
tuce is tightening up witn a slow
down in supplies. Radishes and
green onions are very good. All
are out of the San Francisco Bay
; area.
Avocados continue reasonably
; high, indicating the crop is light
. and growers are trying to stretch
them over the season. Local call
! hage is finished. A small amount
is available from Portland and
' the California market is strong.
, A price rise is expected within the
next week or so. Imperial Valley
is the supplier.
Demand is up on celery and
. celery hearts, and the price has
advanced SO cents a crate f.o.b.

"The film version will follow
