Tacoma In a few days there will be
ah unusual scarcity of watermelons on
the local market, according to some
commission men. The growers' are
said to have miscalculated . the melons
in the fields and made big orders they
could not fill. As a result dealers have
canceled all orders for Southern melons
and will await the arrival of melons
from Fresno andv Turlock. Reports
from the northern sections say the
melon crops are large and when once
the commodity begins rolling in there
will be plenty on hand.
fancy green corn is moving out as
never before on the local boards. The
commodity is coming from Eastern
Washington and is just the same as if
it was grown in local fields, arriving
Here less than 24 hours after it has
been picked. The corn is now moving
at 25 cents a dozen, said to be a rea
sonable price at this time of tee sea
son.
Cherries are just about through.
Lamberts and Bings are no longer on
the market. What few cherries are
to be had are of the Royal Ann and
Late Duke varieties, going at 8 and 6
cents a pound, respectively.
It will not be long now before Mala
ga grapes begin arriving from the
South. Already there are some Sweet
water grapes to be had at $2 a crate.
They are small and good and the trade
has taken to them instantly. '' Reports
from the South say the crop of grapes
this season is about the same as last
year.
- Eggs are firm and another rise would
not be surprising. .
Butter is the same, but if the hot
weather continues a rise may be expected.

,' Yakima Schedule Is Adopted.
North Yakima, Wash. The Yakima

the amounts to be paid the Council.
Chehalis Cannery Begins Run.
Chehalis, Wash. The Lewis County
Canning association plant in Chehalis
received its first consignment of fruit
Thursday. It was a shipment of logan
berries and raspberries from Matthew
Smith, of Winlock. Other .growers
turned in enough fruit to make a good
run to start. The association has just
completed a fine new plant here, and it
is intended to turn out fruit and vege
tables from the Chehalis cannery which
will rank with the best.
Big Salmon Shipments.
Astoria, Or. Two thousand tons of
canned salmon will be shipped from
Astoria to New York by way of the
