Consumers appear to have forgotten
that apple continue In abundance in the
markets and are being sold at relatively
low i prices compared with other fruits.
Wlille the extra fancy applea are high,
but still somewhat lower than a few
months ago. there ia an abundance of
ordinary quality stock that- is good
enough for anyone, that sells at prices
from $2 a box down to 81.75 in the re
tail markets.
There are too many applea now on
the i market, and unless there is a far
greater consumption within the next
month or so much stock will be wasted
in the warehouses of the country.
Many dealers who purchased apples
at the higher prices some months ago
are j now quite willing to take heavy
losses and get the stock into consump
tion, but it appeara aa if most of the
shipping organizations are still insisting
upon securing the full former price.
This is not and is not likely to be avail
able; this season.
