Douglas County Produce
Offerings More Plentiful
By LEROY B. INMAN
Business News Dept. Editor
Douglas County probably is con
tributing more to the produce econ
omy at this time of year than at
any other period.
Local sweet corn, cabbage, snap
beans and cucumbers are in full
swing now. Tomatoes are starting
to show and so are cantaloupes
and peppers. Summer squash va
rieties are on the wane and cane
berries are all but through.
In the fruit lines, plums are plen
tiful, along with a few pears and
apples. Watermelons are another
two weeks away.
The new potato market eased
somewhat on No. Is, but is strong
on No. 2s, mostly out of Washing
ton. A few red potatoes are com
ing from Idaho, but Netted Gems
have not started to show from that
state.
Very good yams and sweet po
tatoes have started coming in from
the Turlock, Calif., area, the mar
ket holding steady. Portland is pro
ducing excellent carrots, along with
good supplies from California. Port
land also is shipping a few turnips,
rutabagas and parsnips, but the
demand is slow. The onion market
is easier on yellows out of Idaho,
but is strong on California imports.
The lettuce market strengthened
slightly, the quality good out of the
San Francisco Bay area. Leaf let
tuces, romaine and endive are good
out of Portland. Radishes and
green onions out of Portland and
California are only fair.
Avocados remain in a strong po
sition. A few hard shells and Black
Hass are available.
Cauliflower is steady out of
California. Portland should start
showing soon. Good quality broc
coli is also being produced in the
south. The celery market should
pick up after a weak period. The
quality is very good out of Cali
fornia, and some from Portland.
Some banana squash is now ar
riving from California. Zucchini is
through and yellow squash will
soon be finished. The California
market is strong on watermelons,
but steady out of Hermiston. Cant
aloupes are hitting a dry spell until
locals come on in larger numbers.
Hermiston, Wapata, Wash., and
California points are through. Egg
plant is coming from Portland.
New California Delicious apples
will be on in another week. Sum
mer varieties of apples are about
finished. Hood River also should
start shipping soon.
' A lull is noticed in the peach
offerings. Early Elbertas and Hales
will be coming in next week from
some Oregon points and Washing
ton. Plums are plentiful, with a
few Santa Rosas still coming in
from California, and Italian prunes
due from Yakima.
Grapes of the seedless varieties
and reds remain good and steady.
Ribiers are easier.
Little change is noted for tropi
cal fruits. Oranges remaining
steady with demand slow. Lemons
are stronger, and California white
grapefruit finding slow demand.
Bananas also are reported as
steady, with some fluctuation hint
ed but not certain. Other tropical
fruits are available on order.
