BETTER PROSPECTS
APPLE EXPORT MARKET HIGHER PRICES PROBABLE LONDON, Feb. 17. Tho prospects of the coming Australian aud New Zealand apple season appear tn he fairly good. There are still plenty of Americans here, selling freely at. about 12s 6d for Newtons and 9s 6d for Winesaps, but it is expected that there will not be a great quantity left when the first Australians arrive towards the end of March. The Americans may overlap for a week or two, but if the Australians are of good quality their freshness should cause buyers to give them preference. As the total exports from Australia and New Zealand seem unlikely to exceed 5,000,000 boxes, compared with 6,333.000 last year, importers are hopeful that prices will be better than in 1934.
