Tel. 611 price my California Growers Holding Out For Same Rate, Report Says Prospects for an eight cent price for Royal Anne cherries tor Oregon growers looked good Mon day with receipt of word here from the California. Cherry Grow ers' association that buyers were talking eight cents there although the association has determined not to name any price until Thurs day of this week. The California crop Is supposed to be about the same as in 1929, although some reports say it will run 'from 7000 to 8000 tons In contrast to 8000 to 9000 tona last year. No sales of cherries have vet been made, a wire from the California association to Max Gehl- har shows. The Salem association of cher ry growers recently put a price of eight cents on the Royal Anne crop here this year. To this four tenths of one cent is to be added for the association's handling charge. While the price Is not extreme ly high it is considered fairly good in comparison with the outlook for peach and pear prices. A heavy peach and pear crop looms California which means mat prices of $85 a ton received for pears in 1-929 will proDaDiy De cut to $30 to $40 a ton tnis year. Gehlhar said Monday that the peach prices would probably . be only 50 per cent of 1929. Last year the peach crop was light and the nrice high. This year's peacn crop in California will apparently be a bumper one. Hare You Been Enumerated? If not, or if you have any doubt, fill out this coupon and mail to ROBERT J.
