RED APPLESHELD BEST wr York Kxporter Declares Jona thans, AVlnesaps and Spitz first. WHITE SALMON. Wash.. April (Special.) -I am still preaching the red apple as tha one to grow for tha New Tork market, and the beat slses ss from K i to lM's." said Kenneth IL Day rep resentative of Bcobel A Day. apple ex porters: of New Tork. who waa In tha White Salmon yesterday Interviewing orchardlsts. The Jonathan. Wlnesap snd Spits are the three best selling red apples and should be marketed In the order I have nomed them. The value of the red apple Is that It Is very striking on the fruit stands and In the atorea and appears riper than tha greenish yellow New town alongside of It. The Spits should fnve been sold out by the fore part of January, leaving tha way clear for the Newtown, a particularly great seller In tha Kuropean market. Newtowna, by the way. are selling pretty well now and would net tha grower here about fl.TS per box. Apples, many of which are Newtowna. are now being shipped to England and thla country. 60.000 boxes coming to New Tork City Just two days ago. "One of the chief reasons why prices were not realised for certain districts this Winter os that huge quanltles were dumped Into Chicago and New Tork at the earns time and the weather was un usually warm, many going to soft fruits as a consequence. It waa ona of tha warmest Winters wa ever had. There Is absolutely no danger of over-production of Siich quality apples as you grow In tha Hood River. Whlta Salmon. Cnderwood and Moaler sections, applea that are known to be tha very beat. The Central Selling Agency, such as yon contemplate, will prove a good thing. Aa to pears, there la a very prom ising future, the marketing Is broad ening, for them, and tha growers of Bartletta. An Jon, Cornice, have nothing to lose."
