MARKET REPORTS
Los ANGELES PRODUCE MARKET

LOS ANGELES, June IA few
stray baskets of grapes came on the
market yesterday from Imperial val
ley. The shipment was very small
one and there were not enough to
put among the regular quotations, as
there will be no regular receipts of this
fruit for about a week. Those were
put up for sale at $3.50 for a four
basket crate. A car of watermelons
came in from Mexico, sending the price
up to 412c to SC pound. This in
crease was due to the fact that there
was fresh stock. The quotation of 8 ~
which has prevailed for the past two
days was on the melons which had
been on the market for several days.
Increased shipments of currants sent
the price down to $1.50 on part of them.
A few peaches sold for as low as SIPS
box, but these were poor stock.
None of the peaches now on the mark ct
are extra good.
been a peculiar one. Like nearly ali
other produce the crop was late and
when it began to ripen. several Sec
tions began to ship at the same time.
This has meana that the market has
been flooded with them and will pros.
ably mean short season. Usually the
Santa Cruz mountain region IS the last
to ship here, but this year cherries
from that locality are coming in at the
same time that the Santa Clara valley
and local shippers are sending to mar
ket. The late rains damaged a part
of the crop and this has sent many
otherwise good cherries to Los Ange-
les in soft condition. Because Of
these facts the range of from sc to
Zoe a pound is justified.
There were several sales of butter
and eggs, although there We're no
changes in their previous quotations.
Both were easier, as they sold at the
first offering at the prevailing rates. A

Now. it makes very little diff
ference how you spell it just so
you remember the name of the
