Apple markets this year are slow,
it was said by one of the dealers this
morning, the evident intention of
the buyers being to await actual

making purchases. Some offers have
been received but local growers are
inclined, it was said, to disregard
them as being unreasonably low.
Grimes Golden, now moving, are be-
