OUTPUT
Up z POINTS

The American Metal Marke'
says:
"Steel demand may be said
to be stasnating upward, since
the respective consuming lines
show no marked increases on
their requirements, yet actual
steel production does increase
slightly from week to week.
"This weeks ingOt produc-
ton may be forecast at 27 per
cent, representing 2 pOipts rise
over last week, and points
increase in three weeks. The
Pittsburgh district shows no
material change. Chicago is up
a couple of points and some of
the smaller districts are up."

FUTURE COTTON
UNSETTLED
AND LOWER

NEW YORK, Jan. 30 QNSO,
The cotton market reflected the
unsettled tone of securities to-
day, and after a fairly steady
start, futures began to drift
downward
Considerable selling came from
Liverpool. This was ascrlbcd as
being due to differences shown
between that market and New
York. This selling was absorbed
mainly by price fixing through
spot firms. Brokers who usually
transact business for the far
East were buying March and
July. Professionals made cover
ing purchases in May, while Wall
Street did some buying in the
distant months. New Orleans
and the South sold, but hedge
sales continued to be light.
Indian Crop Smaller
A cable to a leading cotton
house estimated that the Indian
crop had been reduced to 4,030,-
900 bales of 400 pounds as
against the previous estimate
from the same source putting
the crop at 100000 bales. The
New York Cotton Exchange Ser
vice earlier in the week had put
the estimated crop in India at
100000 to 100000 bales of 400
pounds, against 5,73l 900 last sea-
son.
Reports as to acreage prospects
varied widely in trading circles,
with those forwarded being pre-
ponderantly bearish in character.
Exports Increase
Exports continue to run we'll
ahead of those at the like period
of a year ago. Yesterdays eX.
ports were 24,835 bales, against
7,449 year ago, making the
total so far this season 4794,588
bales, against 4.456,268 for the
corresponding period of a year
ago.
Around the noon hour March
was quoted at 6.61 off 3, May
was off at 678, July off 2 at
sos, october off 4 at IT'S, and
December off at 732.

Produce Market Notes

kets and prices have maintained the
slightly higher level reached earlier
i'm the month. Delaware and Mary
land stock of the Jersey type sells at
40 to IS cents per bushel in eastern
markets. Virginia sweets range IS
to 60 cents, and white yams sell
around so cents in Philadelphia and
Baltimore. New Jersey sweets of the
Jersey type followed a wide jObbing
range of rs cents to $1.15 in eastern
markets. North Carolina Porto
Ricans were steady in New York at
$$2.25 to $3.50 per barrel and were
quoted in Washington at rs to S5
cents per bushel.
Onion Prices Hold
Shipments of onions from all
sources have been at the rate of
only about 20 to 80 cars daily for
some time past, and prices have been
strongly maintained in most markets.
Some jObbing sales i'm eastern cities
ranged as high as $4.25 per fifty
pounds for best lots of standard vel
low stock, and many sales around 81
are reported from eastern and mid
western country shipping points. Ac-
cording to local estimates in the
Rochester district, there were still
from 100 to 200 carloads to be ship
ped and most of these were out of
of the growers.
Most of the old onions reaching
eastern markets are from New York
and Michigan. Texas onions are in
light supply as yet and the progress
of the southern market season has
become uncertain since the severe
weather in Texas. Prices
are firm at Texas shipping points at
1926 to $4 per crate and nothern
markets quote this stock at $4 to
1925.

Apple Market Firm

Recent fairly general gains in the
apple market have been holding quite
well. Damage to the strawberry
crop nthe south and some injury
to Florida grapefruit was expected
to help the domestic and foreign
trade in apples. Receitps are mod
crate in eastern markets and demand
fairly good at irregular but general
ly firm prices. New York Baldwins
followed jobbing range of ISL to
$1.25 per bushel and Greetings
$1.25 to $1.55. New York Mcintosh
reached new top at 81 per barrel in
New York. Eastern Kings ruled 81
in Pittsburgh. ROmes brought 81 to
$1.10 in eastern markets. Eastern
Staymans reached tops of $1.15 in
Philadelphia and Boston but ordi-
nary lots brought $1.25. Eastern
YOrks followed a wide iobbing range
of S5 cents to SIPS. Black Twigs
sold around 81. Winesaps brought
S1.25 in Philadelphia. Delicious sold
at $1.25 to $1.5O in Washington and
Baltimore. Barreled stock of vari-
Gus kinds has been selling at So to
1915 in eastern markets. Baldwins
were firm in western New York pro-
ducing sections and some specula-
tive buying by large operators was
reported in the Rochester district,
including one sale of 10000 barrels.
The ruling price range of No. l
Baldwins was So to 1925.
Milford chronicle., 1932-04-01
Cabbage and Carrots

Prices of old cabbage continue to
hold fairly close to the recent high
price levels because of small sup
plies remaining in northern storage.
Nearly all northern cabbage is now
from western New York where the
excellent storage facilities have often
allowed holders to benefit greatly
from sudden advances in market
price late in the season. AT the re-
cent rise some cabbage sold as high
as $50 per ton, compared with low
points around $40 a few weeks ago.
Recent quotations have receded to
around $40. JObbing prices in east
ern markets ranged from $40 to $50
per ton, and 50 to So per 100 pounds.
Southern cabbage has been meeting
a favorable market lately and de-
mand is reported to exceed supply at
Texas shipping points where the
price ranges nearly SO per crate.
CARROTS were in demand in eastern
producing sections at advancing
prices in late March. A few dealers
in the Rochester district were ask
ingas high as IS per 100-pounds and
sales were made around $3.50. New
York and other large markets report
ed continued upward tendency to
after the middle of March. Boston
quoted bushel pack at $2.75.

Milford chronicle., 1932-04-01

The general produce market still
shows, in late March, many effects
from the cold weather that prevailed
in producing sections earlier in the
month. Volume of carlOt shipments
has recovered fast and the daily total
is not far from the usual movement
at the time of year. Supplies in the
large markets are less scanty and
prices of some lines of produce have
been losing part of the sudden rise,
but the price range, even now, is
higher than it was before the freeze
and some products which are scarce
have made further gains in market
value.
The extent of damage to southern
truck crops is somewhat uncertain
as yet because extent of recovery de-
pends on weather developments fol-
lowing the cold snap, but the effect
is likely to be seen for long time
in the shape of delayed shipping sea-
sons and reduced output as COM
pared with early expectations.
Milford chronicle., 1932-04-01
Potato Markets Hesitate

After sharp advance OF 10 to 25
cents per 100 pounds following the
freezing weather earlier in the
month, the potato market showed a
less confident tone during the last
full week of March. Some of the
large city markets sagged back 5 to
10 cents as the result of resumption
of fairly heavy shipments and the
tendency of truck holdings to i'll
crease. The price upswing had re-
suited in the first place mainly from
temporary conditions affecting haul
ing and shipments in northern pro-
ducing sections, but such handicaps
are likely to be soon overcome. SO
far the strength of the market came
from reports of damage to the south
ern crop, the effect would be more
lasting. 1t is plain that many south
ern sections will be delayed in ship
ments, yields will be reduced because
of damage to the vines, and in some
districts considerable replanting will
be needed. Even if a large part of
the early production should be lost
because of freezing, the supplies in
hOA bhNA II ohOAooNS etAAACOhAAht9 W AACoA
ly One-third of the crop according to
recent reports, would still be ample
although a price somewhat higher
than recent low levels would be
needed to bring out the full surplus
available.
Maine and the Great Lakes region
responded promptly to recent price
advances. Daily shipments from all
sources frequently have far exceeded
1000 carloads. Prices in northern
Maine went to 60 cents and then re-
ceded little. Central western pro-
ducing sections report weaker mar
ket conditions. Markets in western
New York and in the Far West are
dull and steady. Prices at ROches-
ter have lost about Is cents per 100 |
pounds from recent extreme top. A |
price of so to IS cents per 100 |
pounds, sacked, covers most sales at |
country shipping points from Maine !
to the western mountain region. !
Eastern city markets report mOder-
ate supplies and fairly good demand.
New potatoes are i'm light supply. |
Maine Green Mountains still average |
about 10 cents above the iObbing
range prevailing before the freeze
and sell at 81 to $1.25 per 1OO-pounds
in eastern markets. Washington,
and various markets re-
port tops from $1.35 to $1.65. New
York and Pennsylvania stock ranged
around 81 in eastern cities. The
market is holding recent
gains fairly well.
Sweet Potatoes

Milford chronicle., 1932-04-01
Prices React

Although part of the sharp gen
eral advance that took place near the
middle of the month has been lost
since that time, the price of onions
is fully maintained near recent high
levels. Cabbage has not declined
much, and potatoes still sell at 10 to
20 cents per 100 pounds above the
early March price level. Sweet po-
tatOes held most of the small gains
recorded. Apple markets hold the
stronger tone of the past month.
Most lines of early southern produce
sold higher after the cold snap and
the advance has been holding fairly
well. Supplies of the tender vege-
table crops in northern markets will
be affected for some time to come.
