Every eye was turned to the extreme Southern markets this season, .. ‘ as in common with others, with the result that they were tilled up very early. Not only this, but the weather has been so extremely warm that the condition of shipments on arrival has In trying not only common-quality stock but out- ot—condition stock, it"‘has been impos- sible to put on the market as many cars ~of onions as would'be possible had everything been in its proper shape. We haVe received letters from grow- ers of onions in. the Indiana fields, stating thatin their given localityo‘ne hundred thousand bushels ot onions were grown for disposition and up to that time, only one week ago, only six or seven ,ca’rs have been shipped out. That would leave in the neighborhood of ninety thousand bushels of onions from one given section to be placed on the market later. The storage facili- ties from a local standpoint and from a. terminal standpoint, for that matter, is entirely inadequate to take care of this seasons crop. Themeers over the State of Indiana in most places have actually quit Most of them, we , suppose and understand? have filled their storages and in slew of the situ- 9 ation which at the moment exists have 9 , ' stopped {operations The movement (1 onions at the pi esent time: . extremely heavy; the situa- n the same has been more 98- , any other.

What the grower wants is a plan whereby he may market his product at a. profit In this same City of Detroit where the exhibit is to be held, not one person in five is getting anywhere near the fruit he wants, due to . exorbitant prices asked by dealers.
