STOCK AND CROP NOTES.

The Yakima valley potato crop is es-
timated at SIS per cent of normal by
County Agriculturist Price. Twelve
thousand acres are in potatoes.
Field Manager B. F. Brown Of the
Associated Fruit and Vegetable Grow
ers' estimates Walla Walla's 1917 ap-
pie crop at $50 cars. This will make
1917 the heaviest year for apple pro-
duction that the valley has seen, be-
ing SO per cent larger than last season.
About 100 carloads have already been
shipped.
Yakima valley crops for 1917 are
expected to come close to $4,000, 900.
AS a basis for comparison and for
estimating the crops the commercial
club has just completed revision Of
the 1916 crop returns checking actual
shipments and prices. The check
shows total returns to growers of $751;
45S,145 for produce last year. 1t Is
estimated that the present fruit crop
will bring 100000 more than last
year, that fruit products will add
100000, hops $4,000, hay 100000,
sugar beets 100000 and wool $780,
900.
The Spokane Canning Co. has start
ed its apple season at the Yardley
plant and will can 500 to 600 tons Of
apples before the season ends, accord
ing to S. B. Coon, manager. The com.
pany is paying 50 ton at the plant
for culls, fruit that measures not less
than 2 IA inches in diameter and Is
reasonably clean and free from worms.
Bruised apples can not be used, but
color is not factor. All varieties are
canned, but must be kept separate,
because different varieties require diff
ferent lengths of time in processing.
Enormous increases in production
of fall onions, cabbages and beans
over last year are shown in estimates
announced by the department Of agri-
culture. Fall onions production is
forecasted at 1854 $50 bushels, COM
pared with 7,832,7OO last year. The
acreage this year is 41.300, against 2S,-
400 last year. California leads with
3,348,000 bushels; New York is Sec
ond, with 2,881,2OO bushels, and Ohio
third with 100000 bushels. Produc-
ton of cabbage is forecast at 691, 1920
loHS, compared Will loA,olU toHS last
year. The acreage is 1920, against
40,800 last year. New York leads in
production with 349,680 tons, almost
four times as much as last year, and
Wisconsin is second with 900 tons.
Almost double the quantity of beans
is forecast, with a total of 1884, 900
bushels in the five principal growing
states, New York, Michigan, Colorado,
New Mexico and California. Califor-
mia leads with 9,47S,O0O bushels; Mich
igan Is second with 4,006,00O bushels.

MARKET At SPOKANE,

The general business outlook con-
tinues favorable, with scarcely any ap-
preciable diminution in volume of
trade. The fall of the year is natur-
ally the season of greatest trade ac
tivity. The crops go on the market
at this time and cause wide distribu-
ton Of funds, the preparations for
winter mean heavy retail trade, the
transportation lines are usually at
their maximum traffic and nearly all
industries are normally busy.
Provisions.
Butter-Market is without change
as to prices with steady tone to the
situation.
Eggs-Fresh ranch stocks are get
ting still harder to get and with cur
tailment Of receipts quotations have
gone to new high levels. Storage
stocks hold at the same level as last
week.
Fresh Meats-No change on quota
lions are noted this week in this de-
partment and the market is inclined
to be easier, due to declines in live
stock.
Lard and Cured Meats-Hams and
the market is very firm, with further
advances indicated.
Fruits and Vegetables.
Good eating apples have begun to
arrive on the market and the range
in quotations for fancy stocks is SLIPS
@2.5O per box, while cookers are Of
fered at $1@1.25.

week. Fancy lemons are quoted at
$707.75 and choice $6.50@7. Oranges

In grapes Cornishons are offered at
Sits, as is also Tokays. Malagas are

ground cherries are 1910 per pound
and cranberries $13 per barrel and

Potatoes have declined another csc
and are now quoted at $i.75 per cwt.
with indications Of still further de-
clines. Sweets still hold at $3.50.

Grain, Flour and Feed.
Wheat-There yet remains some
confusion between grain buyers and
growers regarding the price of wheat,
but with the announcement of the last
few days by the grain corporation OF
the discounts on light weight wheat,
1t looks as II the trade will now be
able to get down to a working basis.
Another cause of dissension from
growers was that they expected $2.05
for their wheat on the farms and did
not take the matter seriously that the
price named meant Portland, Seattle
or Tacoma, seaboard points. This also
has been cleared up and we think from
now on that growers will begin to sell
freely: many of them are still engaged
in farm work and prefer to finish this
before offering their crops for sale.
All purchases of wheat over which the
United States Food Administration
Grain Corporation has control. 1t is
officially stated, will be made accord
ing to the grades of the official grain
