Returns
Trading in North Carolina fruits
«nd vegetables, while fairly active
this week, was handicapped early in
the period by daily heavy rains and
later by high temperatures. Wide
Tanges in quality of most green vege
tables brought corresponding spreads
in prices at relatively low levels,
whereas, fresh fruits, principally
peaches, following normal receipts,
moved out satisfactorily at slightly
higher levels, the weekly summary
of the U. S. and State Departments
•of Agriculture revealed.
At Chicago the two-way trend in
hog trading of last week carried over
into this week but the trend was re
versed as medium weights were 10 to
15 cents lower and heavies were 10 to
15 cents higher. Highly finished,
good and choice steers sold off early
in the period but closed the week at
most all markets with the advance re
gained. Compared with last Friday,
spring lambs and yearlings fluctuated
midly during the week and closed the
period at Jersey City at 9.75 for good
and choice Virginia springers. '
Commodities affecting North Caro
lina sold as follows Friday:
Peaches—Bushel baskets, U. S. No.
I, Elbertas, 2 in. min., at Philadelphia,
$2.10 to $2.35, as compared with
$1.60 to $2 last Friday; at Baltimore,

pound averages, $30.00 to $35.00; 35

W. M. Wilkins was among the large
number of furniture dealers of the
State to attend the mid-summer fur

High Point.
This great event, which is staged
twice a year in the Tomlinson Exhibi

buyers of home-furnishings from a
great area.
Within the confines of the two
buildings were shown the products of i
America’s finest manufacturers, ar

task of selecting the best furniture
that the industry affords.
In addition to making selections for
his Fall displays, Mr. Wilkins renew

! developed to benefit the public.
“Only dealers of unquestioned in-
J tegrity, taste and experience can en
j joy the benefits of membership,” he
points out. These benefits include
not only sharing of Guild prestige, but
the advantages of the strongest and
most complete selection of fine furni
ture ever assembled by Tomlinson of
