These ap- ples were not held for a "high price" but were being held for a. "market" or in other words, there did not seem to be any demand. The real reason for the sluggish market was not be- cause the consumers did not want the apples, but be- cause the retailer did not care whether he handled them. His store was so plugged up with foreign fruits all the time that he didn't care whether he handled any ap- ples or not. Another thing is that the brilliant display of eign, fruits in the stores takes the eye of the house and she neglects the more unassuming Canadian ple. q T GEO. S. LAING 64 Ellsworth Ave., Toronto, May 10, 1924. The letter would indicate that if the N. PrG. were to advertise durhig the fall and winter that apples could be bought by the barrel or box at a reasonable price, their stock might be disposed much more satisfactor- ily than by selling them through the 'ordinary chan- nels. The inferior apples mentioned by my dent, Mr. Laing, has likely been what is dfing apples, bought through the country 1 Italians at 35c to 60c per hundred pounds. the culls out of which the No. ones, No. ti mestic grades have been packed. The average householder can keep apples in his cellar for six months and run no danger. Just re- cently I had to handle six boxes of B. C. apples for an evening party, and the fruit' was positively damaged through cold storage. Instead of good hard) juicy food, it reminded one of turnip pulp. K Give us a chance to buy before Christmas by the box or barrel and your money will be surer and your market safer. Perhaps you can find time to drop me a line. of apples appear in "The Evening Telegram", and as an ordinary citizen, I am prompted to write yodyyod air the 'eonsumetig'tt vieWpdint. _ , {2' 'xr-i'; Mei-34*? Since about (Christmas wehave been paying ridicu-. lously prices for bad apples in Toronto, arid yet you say that the cold storage is bulging with the last crop! Why in common sense don't you advertise these apples by the barrell or box and let us send you, orders and have the express company deliver them.at our doors in the city? _ Thousands of Toronto people cannot understand why they have to go to the Old Country to get a good Canadian apple. I have fed hogs in Ontario with bet- ter apples than I can purchase in Toronto. Is it not a case of holding for the high prices? But surely a fair price in the fall and no storage charges to the producer is preferable to your present predicament. _ Thus, peaches sql-d in Grimsby at 60 cents would cost the retailer, laid down in his home town, 80c per basket leaving him a profit of 45c on a sale at $1.25 per basket and 70c on a sale at $1.50 per basket. But the worst feature about the that when peaches fall in price to 50c 35 cents per basket, that the consume still has to pay the same old $1.25 D Even if peaches were sold here at 50c or 10c per bas- ket here; the spread is too great between the price here and at points where they are sold at $1.25 or $1.50 per basket. . The only cost between the selling price here and the selling price to the consumer in Renfrew, Pembroke or Lindsay is the express rate, and the express rate to any of those is 20c per basket so that the rest of the spread milst be the profit of the retailer. XI I informed them that in 1920 and 1922 peaches were sold here as low as 30c to 40c a basket, and in some orchards they were sold at 10c and 15c per basket on the trees. The Toronto Globe copies part of my remarks foreign fruits" and then comments on it as follows When the Government Investigating Committee was here last week, I pointed out that the fruittrowers were selling fruit at ridiculously low prices. Two of the members of the committee stated that in their home towns they could not buy peaches for less than $1.25 to $1.50 per basket, any year. The Price of Fruit-- There/s an increasing interest being taken all over the country in the question of "the price of fruit".

Simply this: that there are now ten thousand fruit stofes in Canada, which are being run entirely for the benefit of fruit growers in floreign countries, while the fruit growing business in Canada is languishing. If foreign fruits were prohibited from entry into Canada, what would be the result? The result would le that the fruit stores would make a big display of Canadian apples and Canadian peaches, plums, pears, cherries and berries in glass and cans greatly to the beiiifit of Canadian growers and nume symn but e A country where there at backbones often has more the house. consumers clinician ' iiiruris titr"tr7t, 1tglil I first, nearly 'all n'rrdiii'tr'1"/i_8llll, fore less chance of lossjé‘lm made with foreign fruitS‘rja‘ The consumer also takes the line of least resis- tance and buys the fruit that is planted before her eyes on every street she passes along-a steady drop wears a stone and the time /ciomes when the constant dis- play of foreign fruit has its effect and the result is that thousands of housewives WhOlfOrmerly used Canadian fruits almost exclusively, nor! use seventy-five per cent. of foreign fruits.
