_Cantaloupes._—Sales of cantaloupes were made at advances over the
previous week in most consuming centers, far western Salmon Tints
ranging $2.50‒$3 per standard crate except in Cincinnati, where low mark
of $2 was reached. Arizona shipped only 60 cars and Imperial Valley 25,
compared with their combined total of 300 cars the week before. The
Turlock section, however, showed an increase of 100% in movement,
supplying more cantaloupes than any other producing district.
Cantaloupes moved more freely from Indiana, Illinois, and Missouri.
Arkansas shipments fell below 100 cars and supplies from the Carolinas
are about cleaned up. In the West, the Las Cruces section of New Mexico
has become active. Pink Meats from that territory, flats 12’s and 15’s,
brought $1.15 in Chicago. On the Atlantic coast, Delaware started with a
weekly movement of 60 cars. Maryland furnished almost 400 cars of
cantaloupes, and standard crates of Green Meats from that State jobbed
in Baltimore at $1.25‒$1.50. New York reported sales at a like figure.
Indiana Salmon Tints closed at $1.50‒$2 in Middle Western cities.
