The Prune Crop.

Washington's prune crop is attracting
considerable attention just now from
dealers in dried fruit. As near as can be
estimated, the state will not supply the
home demand, and Il large quantity OF
pruncs will have to be imported into the
state, as in previous years. 1t was thought
since the acreage set to prunes has been
increased so largely, that the yield would
supply the local demand, but it turns out
that Il large portion OF the crop has been
shipped out of the state as green fruit.
Yesterday Il Seattle fruit broker called
at the office OF the state horticultural
to get list OF all growers who intended
to dry prunes, the firm having the pur-
chase Oh the entire crop in view. He said
that Tacoma and Seattle are using about
twenty car loads OF prunes Il year; that
the wholesale price is now about s cents
pound. He said further that experience
has shown that twice as many prunes are
consumed when the price averages s cents
per pound as at - cents.
The indications now are that the price
will rise considerably before the winter
ends.
"Clark county had a fair prune crop
this year, and will dry about 600, 900
pounds, or approximately twenty car
loads" said Secretary Tonneson OF the
state board OF horticulture yesterday.
"They will dry few prunes on the Snake
river, but not many. There was good
crop in the Walla Wala country. but
most OF the prunes there have been
shipped away as green fruit, is the Walla
Walla growers have market extending
into Montana.
=" Ii the price keeps up to S cents a
pound as it seems likely to, | am con-
WINGED that it would pay growers better
to keep their pruncs and dry them, in
preference to shipping them green. For
instance: our prunes sold in hicago last
summer at price that could not have
netted the growers more than > cents Il
pound. As rule IT,, cents Il pound
would he good price for green prunos.
Now it takes three pounds OF green fruit,
worth IL to + cents, 10 make one dried,
worth cents, and possibly more As the
driving can be done for 4 cent 4 ponrd
there would he left Il margin OF at least a
