Portland, Oct. 23.( Special) Since the last report of thta exchange, Octo ber 6th, the market has undergone some rapid and radical changes, ana the whole situation has taken on a more settled and a vtery different com plexion. Perhaps the season of 1911 will stand out in the history of the northwestern apple deal as being with out precedent, In many of Its phases. The, feature of the market, at the time It opened, was a very bearish sen tlmenO on the part of thla eastern dealers and operators, practically all of whom "laid down'" completely, be ing scared by the large eastern crops, and disbelieving tho roports of a very short crop In the northwest. However, It began to be borne In upon their minds that the crop In the Pacific northwest waa really abort, and that certain of this Important district not only had a small crop, but of small sizes.: The supply of strictly fancy fruit of large sizes has turned "out to be tremendously short, and the, de mand for such fruit has developed very strongly, at prlctae quite a little better than last year. " The situation in a nutshell Is this: for extra fancy fruit of large sizes four-tier and larger the supply Is In sufficient to cover the demand, and prices, herefore, are very Btrong. On the! other hand, there Is no demand for .off, grades,, and especially for small sizes 4 tier and 5 tier, - Unfortu nately, certain districts, notably Ida ho, are producing a preponderance of small sizes from one third to one half of, the total being 5 tter. The exchange finds no trouble In making sales of Cashmere district frul making sales of Cashmere district fruit, which runs ..largely to fancy grades and large slzee, on the follow ing basis: these prices being taken from a large number of actual sales, which are on sale with the Cashmere Fruit Growiere union: ' " Spltzenbergs, Extra fancy $2.25 to $2.00, fancy $1.75. , ; Wlnesaps Extra fancy $2.00, fancy, $1.75. Staymen Wlnesaps -Extra Fancy $1.60 to $1.50; fancy $1.40. . Rome Beauty Extra fancy, $1.60 to $1.50; fancy $L40. - . Black Twtga Extra fancy $1.60 to fancy $1.25. r Many other varieties have been sold at proportionate prices. Authorities estimate -that the deal will clean up at a very fcarly date this yenr earlier than ever before la re cent years; For Instance It looks as though shipping in th Cashmere-We-natchee district will be pretty well ov er lu the first week la November out side of what the grower may carry In their cellars. . The indications are that the market vrlll close strong on flae and fancy fruit of large sizes. For fruit of any other description the demand is weak and prices nominal.
