11 THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, FRIDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER M, 1909 I The Market Basket Not many people living north of the Mason "! Dixon lino know how or when to ant bananss. Tbt la the as aartlon of a prominent authority on th fruit. According to thla expert the ba nana never should be eaten until the outside akin haa begun to turn black. In the north few people car for ba nanas unless the skin has the rich mel low appearance. That la the time, aays this expert, whan the fruit should be laft alone. It'a not good then. Walt until It has fully ripened. Unless you have tasted bananaa In the latter condl- j tion you don't know what the real taste la. When fully ripe and turning blank the banatta la very sweet, while In Its mellow state la haa only a resemblance of sweetness, where the bananas grow they uae them for many purposes. They are made Into flour for the dally bread I and cake and baked and fried much like ordinary potato. Where they grow, the banana la the cheapest article of diet. It la therefore usea extensively un sat wcuiudi. in t'entral America, where the banana thrives, they sell to the dealers at about i cents a bunch of large else. Small also bunchea frequently aell aa low aa 16 or IS cents Very amall onea can ' hardly be given away. When ahlpped from their native heath the banana la aa green aa possible. The fruit la so green and hard that the bunchea could be laid out In the street and the passing Of a vehicle over them would hardly mar the fruit. ney must be ahlpped In thla condition to arrive in good shape In faroff countries. New Orleans and Mobile are the principal banana ports i of the United States and from these two places regular trains loaded with noth ing but bananas, make their way dally to all parts of the United States and Canada. Measengera are sent out on each train by the shippers; one messenger being assigned to take care of the shipment to a single city. This Is the very last chance you'll have to get peaches thla season, for there will be no more coming thla year I from California and local supplies are ' about exhausted. The price Is going higher. Apples are now coming In very good shape and the demand Is beginning to increase quite materially. There la now a much better demand for grapes on account of the scarcity of other fruits, but quality la not quite ao good as a week ago. Plums are fast disappearing on ac- count of the unfavorable weather. Pot the paat week or ao there has ; been a combine on In the potato market. Only a few dealer had supplies and they increased, the price at least a third. With the larger receipts, however, the public wlU soon secure more favorable prlcea. Onions are showing a very good crop, but thus far the growers have not brought them to market In any great quantities. Thla caused the high price. Strawberries are again quite plentiful from local points and the larger mark eta are finding a good sale for them at 25 canta for a one-pound box. Eggs are again higher on account of the smaller supplies of local ranch atock. In the wholeaale market some sale are reported almost at SOc a d ox en, while at retail the price ranges from 36 to 49 cants. Eastern eggs are now coming here at the rate of a oar a day. These are of quite fair quality and are sold at about S centa a dosen less than the local.

Corvnllls. Sept. 28. The recent rains have done much damage In thla vicin ity tn the prune orchards, aa the fruit Is ripening rapidly and falUng. Much difficulty Is experienced In securing help enough to care for the crop. At the Benton county Prune company's or chard, north of thla city. 86 or SO pick ers aro engaged In gathering the fruit, but there wUl be heavy lose on account of the facts mentioned. This crop has been purchased by Laaalle Bros, of Albany, one of the firm being tn charge of the big drier, while Robert Johnson of this city Is overseer of tne picking crew. At the A. Jr Johnson orchard of 80 . acre, pickers cannot be had In aufft clent number to care for the crop, and thero will be a correspondingly heavy lose aa the prunes are falling and spoil ing on the ground. The price paid for picking Is seven cents per box. and there Is an unusually heavy crop, but It seems aa though It Is Impossible to have a good crop and then get It cured, at least some mishap has befallen moat of the good crops that have been promised In this section for several years paat. can goeaa .. 8 pact atagsoha entases currents ateyai net log aswser ., 0c Sbaekwell's efive eO, ot settles. 09c I Arm A HasMBer soda C.T..
