MOSIER CHERRY CROP
SELLS AT $50 Per TON
From the Mosier Bulletin

The price at which Mosier cherries
have been contracted for has been re-
Gently given out and is now made pub
lie. The entire cherry crop was con-
tracted for at $50 per ton, 4. o. b.
Mosier. According TO X. ID. Fontana,
manager of the Oregon Packing Com
pany. who made the contract with the
MOsier Fruit Growers Association, this
price is more than has been offered to
any other district. At the time the
contracts were signed propsects were
excellent for a bumper crop, and 100
tons were expected; but present indi-
cations point to only One-third of a
crop, or the same amount as last year,
SO tons.
The average price received by the
local association for the past four
years, since the Oregon Packing Com
pany has handled the entire crop, is
SS6.25 per ton. The record is, 1912, SS5
per ton; 1913, 80 per ton; 1914, $50 per
ton, and 1915, $50 per ton. Big returns
would have come to the growers this
year had there been full crop. How
ever, there is a shortage in other dis
triets, so local growers will fare well,
considering conditions.
Some of the growers report that
their cherry crops will be one-third
yield, while others report one-half.
The black cherry trees, Bings, Lam
berts and Black Republicans, have full
crops, but it is the Royal Annes, or
canning cherries, that seem to have
short yield. Growers differ as to the
cause, but the majority are inclined to
believe that the cause of the blossoms
not setting was due to the heavy rains
at the time of bloom. There has been
no frost to hinder, and the rains are
looked upon as interfering with the
pollenization and the setting of the
fruit.
Shipments will commence about June
], and Manager Chatfield expects to
have large pair of scales installed to
aid in handling them. The black cher
ries will be shipped in boxes by express
to points in the middle west. These
eonsignments will go to seven different
states this side of the Mississippi river,
and have always brought good prices.
The manager is not yet ready to give
out the quotations for this year on the
black cherries, but states that he ex-
pected to do as we'll as in preceding
years; and that prospects are good, as
most of the red cherries are being con-
tracted for canning purposes.

Reports by leading dealers, based
upon a fairly thorough investigation
indicate that the apple holdings in the
United States on the first of the pres
ent month, we're in the neighborhood
of 660, 900 barrels, compared with about
/, ,730, O00lbarrels on April /, 1915. This
would indicate that the consumptive
movement in April was about l,070, 600
barrels, and that the total holdings
were about 26, 900 barrels more than on
May l, 1914. The consumption of ap-
piles during April undoubtedly was the
heaviest during that month known for
some time, or about 60 per cent, as
against 46 per cent during April one
year ago. 1t is pointed out that during
April, 1918, the decrease in apple
stocks during April approximately was
the same as this year, when the decrease
amounted to 63 per cent.
