I'nable to Interest the Eastern or foreign trade In coast punes at this time, leave the market in a stagnant position, from which local interests have bean unable to move it. There is no demand at all for dried prunes from the east just now, al though several weeks ago fair stocks could be moved at low prices. The de mand , was much more limited than the trade had anticipated, and after the first orders werei filled, dryers were unable to Interest other buyers or get former purchasers to take ad ditional supplies. The big crop of prunes In Califor nia this season, together with the bumping the trade received last sea son, have not ben features to encour age extensive buying this year. Prunes reached such an enormous height In 1911 that the general public was com pelled to do without them and has for gotten them since. As a rule, the trade here is able to swing quite liberal foreign business each season but this year the prune crop was very good abroad, therefore making very little demand for the American product.
