of that attitude, they don't enjoy themselves. They can't get rid of a certain resentment at wha they feel is an imposition on their time. And 50, as far as possible, it is the commentators atsk to dispel that gloomy atmosphere which us- ually is brought to the listening of serious music in this country. It is his job to make them less self conscious and get them into the spirit of finding out that music really is fun to listen to.

T important country shipping points.
The cabbage markets developed a
slightly stronger trend as nearby
receipts decreased. Bulk stock still
/ brought $40 per ton in western New
/ York. and was quoted around $18 in
most city markets. Jobbing sales of
! Danish varieties range 45c to 55c per
! so pounds.
! Bunched carrots sell at nearly
steady prices, ranging 60c to 75c per
! bushel at New York and several other
/ markets and firm in the Rochester,
New York district at zoe per 100 lbs.
| A few cars OF bulk carrots sold there
at $l2 to $3.50 per ton. The cauli-
I flower market was weak and gener-
ally lower. Long Island stock
brought 81 to $1.10 per crate in sew
eral eastern markets.
Tone of the celery market contin-
ued rather weak but further price
changes were small. Eastern mark
cts followed a price range of $3.50
to $225 per crate. Much of the cell
cry remaining in storage in western
New York is of ordinary quality. A
few carloads were sold at $1.75 to
$3.50 per crate for washed stock. In
creasing supplies of California celery
have slowed down the demand.
String beans show many declines
of 25c to SOC a bushel, and South Car
olina stock ranges $3.50 to $3.50 in
northern city markets. Florida Gu
cumbers are slightly lower at SO to
$3.50 bushel. Price trend of Vir-
ginia spinach is fairly steady, al
though markets are irregular and
prices range SOC to Csc per bushel.
Apples Nearly Steady
Apples are reported in moderate
supply and SLOW demand IN most OF
the eastern markets. Wholesale pric-~
es have been nearly unchanged but
retail prices have been lowered at
some points, tending to weaken the
general position. Featuring of ap-
pie sales by chain stores, no doubt,
increased the consuming demand at
the expense of some cuts in prices.
Greetings sell about steady at 81
to S1.10 per bushel in eastern cities
and 9Oc to 81 in Chicago. Mcintosh
follows wide range of 75c to s1,35
in eastern cities. Staymans range
S5c to 81. The extra fancy box pack
of Northwestern Delicious is quoted
S1.75 to 81 in several markets.
In Western New York a few sales
of Greetings were reported at S5c
but most lots were held for 90c to 81
Export demand has been light. Over
half the carlot movement of apples

Cranberries are in liberal supply
from the larger crop produced this
year and prices have been declining.
price level is at least 81 low
er per box, compared with year
ago. Eastern early varieties sell In
various city markets at So to $2.25
per box.
Over-supply of western grapes was
4 source of trouble in several mar
kets and prices declined to still lower
levels on account of lack of brisk
demand for juice stock. The last
part of the western juice grape mar
xet season has been unsatisfactory
Ior all concerned. Receipts of cas-
.ern grapes are gradually decreas-
ing but prices are from one-half to
.wo thirds those of year ago, partly
because of irregular quantity.

PRODUCE MARKET NOTES

Since the height of the produce
shipping season last month, the car
lot movement of fruits and vegetables
has dropped off nearly one-third and
the current output is at the rate OF
about 1000 ears per day. Decreases
are partly according to season and
partly because low prices had dis
cOuraged shippers. Carlot shrinkage
the first week of November was
I close 10 5000 cars. Grapes and east
4 ern apples. decreased nearly one
( third. grapefruit and onions nearly
7 One-half. potatoes, sweet potatoes,
( and cabbage about One-siXth. Ship
ment gains include beans. cauliflower
lettuce, spinach. peas. peppers.
oranges. and cranberries.
Complaints of slow. draggy trad
ing conditions continued the rule in
most large city markets. but business
was improving a little toward the
middle of the month with the begin
ming of wholesale buying for the
Thanksgiving season. Prices were
holding fairly steady for most pro-
ducts and there were some gains for
onions, cabbage. and celery. Over
supply of western grapes was a
source of trouble in several markets.
Prices of oranges and grapefruit
were declining with larger supplies.
Potato Market Steady
Prices of potatoes have shown lit
tie change the second week of Nov
ember. The only feature was
slightly firmer tone in midwestern
shipping sections. Prices held near
ly unchanged in northern Maine,
around CSC per 100 ponds for Green
Mountains. This stock still sold at
S1.O5 to SIPS in eastern markets, and
other round white potatoes brought
81 to S1.10. Supplies Of potatoes in
wholesale markets were moderate
and demand slow. Producing sec
tions also reported markets and mod
crate carlot movement.
Potato shipments are steadily de-
creasing and are now about 500 cars
per week day, compared with 600 to
700 cars daily a year ago. Many
dealers were still uncertain regard
ing the future trend of the potato
market. The November crop report
shows a decrease of over z million
bushels in production prospects COM
pared with the October figures. There
was some frost damage to potatoes in
the fields, also from dry weather in
a few sections and rot in several other
producing sections. Potato trade is
usually rather dull during the holi-
day period when dealers and retail
ers are featuring fruits and other
holiday food commodities.
Sweet potatoes are in fair demand
at nearly unchanged prices. Most |
Virginia. Maryland and New Jersey |
stock sells at jobbing range of 40c !
to 75c bushel. Midwestern markets !
are steady.
Onion Prices Firm
The onion market is holding prices |
well with a slightly upward tendency
in eastern producing sections for |
good yellow stock. Producers are in
clined to hold best lots for higher
prices and only occasional sales are
reported in western New York. Car
lot movement continues light from
the Rochester district. and the mar
ket there is firm around S1.15 per so
pounds. Eastern city markets quote
a jobbing range of soc TO $l.35. but
some poorer lots sell lower Some
OF the dealers were predicting bet-
ter demand and slightly higher prices
in line with tire recent advances at
