Show APPLES ARE NOT GDI TO MARKET The marketing of apples from this territory still is restricted to a few cars a week. Whether the shortago of cars or a general disinclination of commission houses to purchase apples is affecting the situation so unfavorably unfavor-ably Is the question. It is said by many apple raisers that the commission commis-sion houses have refused to purchase apples, waiting until tho fruit is in danger of being lost, and that they will then come forth with an offer way below tho market price which the farmer will be forced to accept to keep his crop from total loss. At soveral points of the county apples ap-ples are ready for marketing but car.s cannot be secured. The government report shows that prices in different places are very good and that the demand de-mand Is fair but this does not benefit local producers, if they cannot get their fruit shipped. |
