The price of 7 cents quoted recently will mean, if it does not go higher as has been rumored in the last few days, that most grow ers will , receire an arerage of about S cents, because the heavy crop means smaller prunes, and the 1k cent quotation is based on the S0-3S size. . But, says Max Gehlar, who is authority for the abore estimate, the outlook in general is that prune men will "cash in" this year.

But the crop will Je far heavier than that of 1927 or that of 1928; "not quite up to the 1926 crop in volume. Prices received by the growers for prunes have fluctuated widely. Before the war they occasionally reached seven cents. During the war, the government commandeer ed the crop at a ten cent price, and in 1919 they reached the peak, 20 cents. Then came the "calamity year" 1920, In which 13 cent contracts were signed but the quality was poor and large quantities were sold for as low as 1 and two cents.
