SPOKANE COUNTRY
Promise of Best Crops of Fruits and
Berries in Its History.

Eastern fruit buyers returning from
trips through the Yakima, Wenatchee,
Prosser, Spokane and Columbia river
and Snake river valleys declare that
unless the unusual happens the Spo-
kane country should produce the best
crop of diversified fruit from orchards
to berries in it's history. The apple,
peach pear and cherry orchards are in
fourishing condition and there is no
danger of frost. Many of the trees
have started such large bearing that
they will have to be pruned to support
the weight of fruit. The strawberry
crop on the Snake and lower Columbia
rivers has so far advanced that ship
ping will begin in a few days. The
apple crop gives promise OF being a
bumper and this is true of other tree
fruits. One hundred and seventeen
thousand acres of hand in Washington
is devoted to apples. plums. peaches
and cherries and full crop is worth
millions of dollars.

There was covering on the decline, how
ever, and toward midday the market
turned firmer on reports that a cyclonic
storm was moving westward toward the
lesser Antilles and might head toward the
gulf. The weather forecast suggested
showers or rains in sections of the belt,
also, and during the afternoon the mar
ket advanced to a net gain of to 10

weather over the week end. The latter
months were relatively firm on the ad-
vance and it was reported that there
was some selling of December against

purpose of undoing straddles. Last prices
were little off from the best under real
