Withycombe has issued a proclama
tion sotting aside tho week Septem

ernor of Washington has dono tho
same and tho commercial bodies of
tho Northwest aro Joining In a con
certed movement to arouso public in
tercst In observance of tho week.
"Buy them by tho box! Eat them!
can them; pickle them; prcservq
them; find out Just how valuable a
fruit tho pench Is," is tho advice that
is going to go out broadcast to tho
pcoplo of the Northwest in connec
tion with tho movement.
Tho movement Is launched to ov
ercome tho most critical situation
that tho poach growers In tho North
west havo ovor mot. Tho general
peach crop of tho United States has
been tho largest In years, and tho
Eastern markets all through the
country nro demoralized.
Many Priccw Knll Below Cost
Tho most of tho growers nro able
to get for their product has not ex
ceeded the cost of production at any
tlmo, nnd in a groat many cases far
bolow that cost. In tho lnrgo peach
sections of Washington tho growers
face tho nltornntlvo of either getting
tho cost of production or losing their
entire exponso and labor in raising
tho fruit. Sovoral hundred cars
may not bo picked ns a result, unless
tho pcoplo cat them.
Thoro has novor boon a time In tho
Northwest when tho peach crop was
of n bettor quality than this season.
In splto of tho lowest prevailing
prices for a long tlmo, tho nmount of
peaches consumed has boon relative
ly less this year than In past seasons.
No great movomont has taken placo
to can tho peaches thoro has been
Ilttlo buying by tho box.

PORTLAND, Ore., Sept. 2. Low
er prices Is the tendency of nearly
every commodity for domestic con
sumption, nnd whllo this condition
prevails It will be difficult for pro
ducers and Jobbers to advance prices,
This is tho view of several represen
tative dealers in foodstuffs.
"Consumers among the mnss of
tho common people decllno to pay
ililghcr prices," snld ono of tho fore
most dealers. "Meats, fish, sugar,
flour and other staples havo come
down from former high prices, nnd
aro uuo for iiirtiior declines. Vege
tables and fruit havo been nnd aro
selling nt uncommonly low prices.
Consumers scorn to gauge tho price
of all other commodities by tho
downward movement of so many Btn
ples, and aro clamoring for oppor
tunity to mako tholr monoy go far
ther In purchasing articles of food
necessities that havo not yot de
clined appreciably. It Is for this
reason that they aro Insisting on
lower prices for dairy and poultry
products nnd other supplies, which
remain steady In prlco.
"It Is no tlmo to talk advancing
tho prlco of any commodity that tho
mans of consumers can find substi
tutes for or enn limit themselves In
consumption. Consumors havo shown
their ability to curtail tho demand
for various food products. Stiffen
ing of prices always results In less
oned demand, nnd with this nxiom
.boforo them the wlso producers and
Jobbers know that It Is well not to
attempt to cither advance prices or
mnlntaln high prices when tho ten
dency Is for lowor prices.
