Prospects For Advance In Cherry Market Held Good Cherries from the districts east of the mountains which have re cently flooded the eastern marKets have been cleared away and me market will be bare within ten days to provide an excellent mar ket for the crops of this district, is the statement of Roy It. Hirsch, western division manager for tne Denney firm, who arrived in Sa lem Monday to direct handling of the Denney deal here. Headquar ters for the Denney packing was established this morning In the old King's Products plant on North Front street. Telephone number at the plant Is 291. The Dennej people are reatiy to receive all available black cherries and will take any amount of satis factory oualltv that Is offered in addition to what they have already signed, according to Hirsch. Sa lem is to be the only shipping cen ter for the firm in western Ore gon for the black cherries and will receive the Denney consignments from Albany, McMinnville, Forest Grove, Sheridan, Portland, and other outlying points where con tracts aro held or iruit avanaoie. The first lot of cherries will be received at the Kings plant today and If the receipts within the next few days are large enough, the first cars will go out this week. Other wise shipments for the market by carload lots will go Monday and . Tuesday. The Denney people will handle all of their deal on a consignment basis. "The present cash price Is too low and I think we can get more money." Hirsch declared yester day. "It Is too early to predict the price, but whatever advantage we get will be proportioned to the grower. In the deal we Just clos ed at The Dalles the farmers net ted 14 cents, but whether the price for the deal hero will be more or less it Is too early to say. It is safe to say, thougn, that with the con dition of the market, there is every Indication that we will get a very good price." The King plant will be used ex clusively for the handling of the Denney deal, complete equipment has been Installed and every faclli ty possible to expedite the hand ling and service to the growers hun- been provided. "We would like to correal false impression that seems to be current," Hirsch declared. "There is no question of whether the Den ney firm is coming next year or any other year. We are here to stay and we will como here every year as long as there Is business In the valley. This year wo would have handled a hundred cars If the fruit had been here to get and we will be back again next year to take whatever is on the market for us. CASH PRICE FO CHERRIES LIKELY Toung and Wells this morning opened packing headquarters in the old Salem Fruit Union build ing and ' announced readiness to receive black cherries. Packing will start as soon as the fruit be gins coming in and the first of the young and wells cars win roil for eastern markets the last of this week or Monday of next. 'We will pay eight and a half centa cash for our fruit now, but there is good reason to believe that this price will be advanced before the end of the season," Wells de clared this morning. Ills predic tion Is based upon information se cured by long distance telephone trom nts Chicago agents yesterday. He declared, however, that it was too early to predict how far the movement in the eastern market would boost the price here. "We believe that a cosh price is the bchl way to handle the deal this yeni because of the perishable quality of the fruit," Wells declar ed. "This year the fruit must move fast If It Is to reach the market In saleable condition. We are paying a cash price and ourselves assum- ng the risk of transportation. Wells will go to Vancouver today where his firm is opening their deal there and where they will handle a minimum of seven cars.
