Advices from Baltimore state that the
NV PACK OF early June peas mas practically
closed, and that a commencement has been
made on the pack of marrowfats A rep.
resentative of one Of the leading Baltimore
packers says; 1.-The early June pack has
closed after the shortest run Of which
have any knowledge, The packing season
lasted about twelve DAYS against the usual
packing period Of twenty days The total
puck Is figured. on n rough estimate at
80 per cent of that put up last year This
season the proportion Of fine sifted and
petit pois grades was, according to my ad.
Vices today less than 80 per cent of thu
normal This shortage WAS due to the fac,
that the weather conditions brought the
peas to n state Of maturity earlier than
usual. and instead of the peas in tho nod,
running irregular In size they were filled
out better than usual. This condition nat.
urally caused proportionate increase ia
the pack IT standard and sfted grades
which accounts for the greater difference
In prices. The demand since the season
opened has run largely to the sifted anl
petit pois grades
private letter from Baltimore stated
that seconds cost to pack there T4c The
advices stated that some large inquiries
are In hand for cheap peas. II is stated
also that some brokers there are trying IL
buy stock a prices ruling week ago, pre-
sumably to Gil contracts made week age
on the 60c basis. Brokers, It is stated.
have sold short on this grade for the rca.
son that they made the price an induce.
ment for buyers to get In.
