cause for a higher range in values, although
perhaps not enough, all things considered, to
account for the wide difference now existing
Today the prices Of lemons show a range
of from $3.50 10 $500 per box higher than
the highest figures recorded for the corre-
spending date last year This means that
buyers are paying at least one-third more
for the fruit than was the case last yeLr,
and notwithstanding this fact all the iluit
available Is being taken up as fast as IL can
be moved.
the season Is a vast Improvement over last
year, but the broker and handler Of repecked
stock is losing money, for the reason that
tn waste in repscking Is more costly and
the risk of shipment greater Since The IL
markable advance of nearly S1C0 fer box
early in the week the higher prices wired
out to country buyers have caused them To
reduce the size Of orders fully ore alf, and
this in itself has cut down the business 10
a basis where profits are exceedingly smell,
particularly when II Is considered that STOCK
! from the auction room shows nearly double
the waste of an earlier season. The total
quantity of lemons in sight now numl ers
| II 600 boxes Of Messna. $500 boxes Of Pa
IIermo and 700 boxes Of Naples l,nons,
What proportion Of this fruit VIII aliVe
during the coming week is hard 20 say, but
! IL is doubtful whether more than a third
will be available for the sucu)n, In Which
case we may look for a continuance Of the
| prevailing high prices, as there are less thon

and without change IN any line ~ re is
