Weekly Market Report

(By Hood River Produce Exchange.)
The strawberry season is in full
swing now. There will be over five

berries so the bulk of the Hood River
crop will have little competition. The
quality of the berries is very good this
year. The price has been around the
So mark.

table market this week over last. New
spuds are cheaper at Sl.75. Cabbage
is the same price. Cucumbers, 81 to
81 80 per dozen. Tomatoes, s5 per
