MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON. THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 11. 1941 PAGE FTVI HOUSEWIVES RAID SHELVES CP0TfiY FOR TINNED Northwest Stocks Nearly Out Despite Heaviest Cannery Output In Years. Portland, Ore., Sept. 11. (.41 Despite the largest cannery output In years. Pacific north west stocks of tinned fruit, vege j tables and fish are nearly! cleaned out, canners said today. The country over, the public , is emptying grocery store shelves as fast as merchants fill them, j Wholesalers estimated Pacific! northwest canned goods prices are 10 per cent higher than last year. Other sections have fared even worse, they said. Fish Shortage I Some brokers predict a fish: shortage. The war has cut off j Norwegian and Mediterranean' supplies. Tuna and crab ship mpnt from JaDan are uncertain.! ! Prices paid fishermen have soared, and a consequent lift in retail prices is expected. The Alaskan salmon pack is running 1,500.000 cases more than the 5,000,000 put up last year, but British and U. S. armed forces are taking a large por tion. The Columbia river salmon In dustry has promised 20 per crnt of the total pack to the U. S. Alaska packers have pledged; most of their top grades and 10 to 15 per cent of the lesser grades; to the government. i The price of the most popular! grade of salmon is up from $1.65 a dozen cans to $1.75. Once at $2, it dropped only because of the heavier-than-expected catch. Reserves Lacking Fruit and vegetable proces sors, who usually fill their ware houses at this time of year, are unable to store up reserves. Carryover from the 1940 pack was one of the smallest in his tory. The pea industry put of 3.000.000 cases, but only 20.000 remained this year. A million: cases of canned apples dwindled to 2,000. j Then came harvesting diffi-j culties. The bean crop was pro-j mising, but lack of pickers cut heavily into the pack. A hot spell damaged berries. An anti cipated prune pack of 3,000.000 pounds has shrunk to 2.000,000 because of weather damage and lack of harvesters. Pear Crop Helps The pear crop, however, prom ises to be the largest in Pacific northwest history, and apple growers, almost wiped out by the loss of foreign markets two years ago, are optimistic. Can ners normally use secondary grades of apples, but because of a scarcity of secondaries are buy. ing top grades. Transportation difficulties pro vided a final complication. Withdrawal of ships from coastal and inter-coastal trade threw the burden of distribution onto railroads, already hard pressed. Air-Mindtd Indianapolis (.-11 Lawyer Richard Smith's dog.

Ostrander, returned traveler.
