mV.NES MAY BE 10 CENTS
In the absence of any buyers in
Salem and vicinity local prune grow
ers estimated today that they would
receive a minimum of 10 cents a
pound. Based on the anticipated
crop of 16,000 000 pounds in Marion
county, this figure would bring the
growers ?1, 600, 000. At 16 cents a
pound, the price paid by buyers last
season, the growers would benefit to
the extend of $2,560,000.
Salem growers declare that this
year's crop of prunes is far superior
in quality 'to those produced last
season.
