Apple Prices May
Be Highest Now
BY GILBERT GUSLER

A GOOD CROP and mostly good
prices appear to be on the apple
growers ticket this year. Prices APP
pear certain to average higher than
last season, although substantially
higher opening prices may mean
considerably smaller rise from fall
to spring.
The commercial crop is estimated
at 119, 100000 bushels against 1885,
100000 last year, 88,4OO,O0O in 1948
and a 1939-48 average of 100, 1000
bushels. Although below last year,
it is relatively big crop, especially
in the winter varieties. Production
of all leading varie ties except
Gravensteins and Jonathans is above
average.
Good prices at harvest time prob
ably will lead to picking nearly all
of the crop. Last year 10,500,000
bushels remained on the trees.
Hence, the crop to be merchandised
may be only slightly smaller than in
1949.
Current prices reflect the stronger
situation than last year. They are 81
to $3.50 bushel or box higher than
a year ago. Last season the average
auction price of leading varieties of
western apples at New York de-
clined from $3.50 per box in October
to $3.G1 in December, then advanced
to SAB in May.
To this observer, conditions this
year do not seem strong enough to
hold prices as much as 81 higher
than last season. An increase of one
third to one-half that amount seems
to be more in line with reasonable
expectancy. Even in the short crop
season of 1913, prices averaged only
little more than 81 higher than
last season.
1t follows that if prices hold near
recent strong levels, it will be well
to sell quite heavily at harvest time.
Any advance from that level during
late fall and winter is likely to be
disappointing.

DR.. Pepper Clarifies Montana
Hopper Control Situation

is wrong in gambling tina
It can stop a grasshopper infesta
ton by artificial means.
That Montana poisoned l.000.-
600 acres in the dozen eastern
Montana counties" is sufficient
answer. DR.. Pepper says.
DR.. Pepper adds that Montana
has been working closely with
Wyoming because Wyoming is
as interested as Montana in ex-
changing all materials and find
ings TO make control even more
effective.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1950-10-01

BECAUSE A RECENT article in
a national magazine presented a
somewhat misleading impression of
the situation, DR.. J. H. Pepper, state
entomologist at Montana State col
1ege, takes some of the confusion out
of the article by the following state
ments of the proper facts.
The article points out that Wyo-
ming "baited 100000 acres by
plane this summer in an effort to
kill off a grasshopper plague at its
peak" Then the author adds, 'sCuri-
ously enough, however, Montana
grasshopper experts disagreed with
their method, and the state therefore
is not participating in the program
although it has more hoppers than
Wyoming"
DR.. Pepper points out. and
Montana farmers and ranchers
know this. that Montana did
participate in the program and
baited about 100000 acres.
Montana had exactly the same
agreement with the federal gov
eminent as Wyoming. The only
difference is that the state funds
in Wyoming were appropriated
by the legislature. In Montana.
the counties and ranchers sup
piled the state portion of the
funds.
From the article again:
'"The Montana theory is that
grasshoppers control themselves
through a natural law of reproduc-
ton which limits their provocative
powers when the population reaches
explosive numbers. If this is SO,
they (the Montana experts) argue,
batting at the peak of an epidemic
may only stop operation of this law
and prolong the period in which the
| grasshopper population is above
normal"
DR.. Pepper says that every
theory of grasshopper control is
being investigated. Entomolo-
gists here are trying TO find out
where in the cycle grasshoppers
can be controlled. However.
measures are being carried on as
they have in the past until re-
search has proved where in the
cycle control will be most effec-
tive. The 100000 acres baifed
this year in Montana is proof
that control measures were car
ried on.
In regard to the statement thai
Montana has more grasshoppers
than Wyoming, DR.. Pepper answer:
that all the data show the opposite
to be true.
The article then says Montana i
betting the 1851 crops of "dozer
eastern Montana counties tina
