June 21 (LP) There re mains a generally steady tone In the local butter trade and without quo tation change for either cubes or prints. Production la still decreasing but general wants are for either cubes or prints. , The late advance of lc In the sell ing price on eggs Is being generally maintained here with receipts still showing an almost general decrease. Expressing full sympathy with the late advance In the price of live hogs, market for country killed stock is firmer and higher. It has been rather active for some time past. Somewhat better feeling Is also ex pressed in the market for country killed veal and lambs. It Is the first Improvement in the latter for some time past but extreme quotations In both lines are on a nominal basis. Owing to the forced maturity as a result of a shortage of water, the Pasco section is rushing potatoes to market. Several carloads are on the tracks here. Pricps are ranging mostly around $1.15 per 50-lb. bag. Surprising increase In local de mand for celery continues with most excellent quality offered from Mil waukle and the Labish sections. Prices are held firm at the late ad vances. PAULUS BUYING ROYAL ANNES Royal Anne cherries are still be ing bought by Paul us brothers cannery which already has taken on a considerable block of the cher ries and George Paulus stated Tues day they expected to be in the mar ket for some little time yet. The cherries will all be barreled. He also stated that the cannery expected to take on all of Its old growers for loganberries but would not step outside of those ranks and expected to do no outside buy ing at all of logans. However, the company has put on a good sized pack of logans and apparently con templates doing the same again this year. He expects the loganberry crop will be ready to start on about ! July . The cannery Is still running on Etterbergs and is putting up a very sizeable pack. In addition It Is also both barel tng and canning Marshalls. Some Marshalls have been canned In the past but more of It Is being done this year with the cheap berry available and a wonderful quality as well. PEAR SHIPMENTS TO SHOW DECREASE Fresh pear shipments from the Santa Clara valley are expected to show a decrease of 15 per cent, ac cording to some present estimates, below the 1931 figures, says the Cal ifornia Fruit News. This decrease has been brought about by a heavy drop of pears in the last few weeks and by the shipping curtailment plan which Is being worked out there to hold off the markets small and Inferior fruit. Shippers have agreed to put on the markets only the fin est pear and not to deal in off grades.

PICKETING IS HELD ILLEGAL BY COURT 'Continued from page 1) Rand H was held that 'in con ducting their theaters these plain tiffs were transacting a lawful busniess. The riRht to transact such business Is a property right, the exercise of which without un lawful Injury of Interference by others Is protected both by the federal constitution and by the constitution of this states" "We think,' the opinion stated, 'that under the great weight of authority picketing Is regarded as 4 legitimate means of economic coercion If it Is confined to per suasion and Is free of molestation or threat of physical injury or an noyance. But it it a privilege which may be Invoked only when some lawful justification for Its ex ercise exists. The primary object and purpose of this picketing was not to benefit the union, but to In jure the business of the plaintiffs." justices George Rossman con curred In the opinion by Justice Rand while Justice Belt dissented In his dlssentitng opinion Belt held that a dispute did exist between ! the labor unions and the theaters Involved, and that the unions did j have a right to picket.

E The continued demand for small dried prunes In central Europe has tlrawn from the needy Yugoslavian peasants considerable quantities of prunes that normally would have been consumed at home, says the California Fruit News. Recent semi official reports Indicate that up to March 31 Yugoslavia has exported a total of 9,318 short tons of dried prunes from the 1931 crop. During the first three months of 1932 little interest was shown for the large sizes of prunes, although merchants were willing to sell at reduced prices and prices of larger sizes have shown a downward trend. It is also possible that Importers in central Europe can finance pur chases In Yugoslavia more easily than in America and that American prunes are being replaced by the cheaper and more readily obtainable Yugoslav product. The dried prune industry In Ru mania centers about the town of Calarcl in the central western part of Bessarabia. On March 21 the trade reported 180 to 200 carloads (1.980 to 2.200 short tons) of dried prunes still unsold In and about that district. During February and March the Calaraci district shipped to Poland 20 carloads (220 short tons) of dried prunes ranging from 110 to 130 per one-half kilogram size. The prunes are shipped In sacks of 220 pounds. Spring has been late In the Bal kans and plum trees began to bloom the latter part of April. The danger of frosts Is over and the outlook at this time indicates a normal yield and production lrger than last year.
