(AP)-j-Plght for control of the local chlckeji market continues unabated here. In fact a greater demand for offering! In tho California trade started an other rumpus in the buying price ftere. Borne of the packers were In clined to grab the big profits offered by the lncreaaed California price of holding down the local price but others appeared with a higher price ' for buying here and (lipped the beans. Demand for chickens Includes all ' lines. There la at the moment a very keen call for all sorts and especially so for. the young stuff. All broilers are In call and at full prices. Best demand Is for light weights, whirft are, scarce and find southern favor at an advancing price. , Generally steady trading tone Is reflected In the market for butter with no change In current values on . the open market. Oenerally maintained values are shown In the local egg market with the co-ops quoting unchanged values. Receipts of eggs continue to dwindle and there Is much trouble regarding quality. Demand t for top quality light : weight country killed, calves Is very gooa... nogs ,sre a, trine, easy ajiue demand for lambs Is fair. Market for cantaloupes Is In bad shape with much odd and end stuff . arriving. .Prices are weak to extreme ly . low ,, w!ta ... distributors meeting . competition, .' Quality In general is below average years. j Tomatoes show a slightly softer tone here, pcnaral top la, around oq'c . box. There la an acute shortage of good ' head lettuce at this time. ,Pear. trade Is. a trifle easy with, more cunning stock offering. , No change in packed stock, Rogue I River far in tho lead.
