DEALERS SAY
PEACH PRICES
WILL SOAR
PREDICT THAT 81 A BUSHEL
WILL BE FIGURE SHIP
MENTS LIGHT
uBy Associated PressD

St Louis, Mo, Aug. 9.-With the
exhaustion of the mammoth crop OF
Texas peaches the large shipments
which have been received on Pro
duce Row promise to decrease ma
crops yet remain. II is predicted
that prices, already high, will soar
before the season Is ended.
Some merchants yesterday said
that peaches would bring s2 a bushel
before the week is over.
An intimation heard along the
street that peaches are being
dumped into the river by the mer-
chants in order TO counteract the
big shipments and thus create an
artificial shortage and high prices
was rdiculed by fruit commission
men.
That report is untrue said Rob
ert Friend of the Southwestern Pro
duce Distributors company. Many
peaches have been spoiled in ship
ment from Texas by the ice running
out in the cars and these have been
thrown into the river
Beginning on Arkansas Crop.
Peaches are now bringing from
s1.25 to $15J a bushel and will go
higher every day Texas has had a
big crop. which is now over. and we
are beginning on Arkansas, and af-
ter that Oklahoma. Both states
have good crops.
The immense yield of peaches IN
Arkansas has been too large to
handle successfully it was said at
the office of Pillman Bros, large
wholesalers of peaches.
"A letter from Horatio, in Sewer
county. Arkansas. informs us that
300 car loads of peaches were allow
ed to rot on the trees said one of
the proprletors. The Letter reports
that the market does not pay for
shipping them north.
Il expect peaches to reach 81 a
bushel before the week Is out Ar
kansas crop will about last this
week and Oklahoma's little longer
The report that merchants are dump
ing peaches into the river is un-
founded as far as know.
The severe freezes in the early
part of the winter ruined Missouri's
big crop Big rains and the general
wet condition of the season added to
the destruction"
II. w. Brockman of the F. w.
Brockman Commission company
said that peaches Will continue to
rise in price.
Those people who have held off
from buying in the hope of slump
in prices have been fooled" he said.
"A big rain ruined Georgias crop
and we have had to depend upon
Texas. Arkansas. Oklahoma and
perhaps Michigan, The first three
named states have had big crops.
| have heard nothing of peaches be
ing dumped into the river here in
order to keep prices up. Many
peaches have been ruined in ship
ment and have been disposed of in
that way.
Louis Cicardi of Cicardi Bros
Commission company predicted
peaches will rise to s1.,5.
There will be steady increase
in prices from now on" he said Il
have heard nothing of peaches be
ing thrown into the river to keep
prices up. That is probably what
gave rise to il"
He pointed to wagon which was
being loaded with spoiled peaches
culled from southern shipments.
They were 10 be unIoaded into the
river.
