NORTHAMPTON BERRY
CROP is TERMINATED

The movement of Northampton
1884 strawberry crop drew to a close
the end of last week. Prices declined
sharply and some shipments which
were taken to the block did not bring
cost of production. This was due IN
large measure, so it is said, to the
heavy picking not only here but thru
other sections of the country as well.
The block was operated at Bayview
Wednesday but few shipments of any
size were sold. 1t is reported that a
number of the growers have stopped
picking and are allowing the fruit
to rot in the fields.
The cabbage movement is under
way but shipments are small, cutting
started this week and the basket price
is around Soc to 90c. This does not
mean much profit, though it will car
ry production costs and leave little
over for the farmer. The quality is
exceptionally good but the yield is
short. The size being shipped this
week runs about 25 heads to the bas-
ket and dealers say that heads this
size have the best market value. The
market is firm this week and if other
cabbage growing sections have as
short crops as the Shore glut should
not result, however, nothing definite
can be reported on this condition at
this stage of the season.
The potato crop is apparently de-
veloping splendidly; according to re-
ports from dealers who have made SUI
veys it is thought that the harvesting
date will not be more than week
later than usual if that. The foliage
is almost touching across the rows
now and digging is not expected tC
start prior to June 18th. The grow
ing season since planting has been al
most perfect and one dealer stated
yesterday that he believed good
crop would make" even if there were
no rainfall between now and June
This is about the condition as it pre-
