Telegram : Oregon peaches have been in the market in a very limited way for several days, a few small shipments having . come in from the Ashland district. The first impor tant offerings of the season from the southern part of the state are ex pected the latter part of this week. Alexanders and other early sorts, and after this week there will prob ably be plenty of homegrown peaches for the local trade. The peach crop of southern Oregon this year prom ises to be about normal and of good quality. In the market today there were fair supplies of California peaches, among the offerings being some KI bertas, and the prices quoted ranged from 90 cents to $1.25 a box. Ship ments from The Dalles district are not expected for two weeks.', .The cherry market appears to have gone more or less to -the bad, largely on account of the damage done by the rains last week. The Royal Anns suffered most severely, but Bings in many quarters are reported to have been badly cracked. The extent to which the Lamberts suffered has not yet been ascertained, but that they escaped harm is doubtful. Dealers today quoted a range of 3 to 7 cents on all grades and conditions of the fruit, and while stocks on the street were not large, the movement was none too active.
