The Dominion Fruit Commissioner states that price is.a controlling fac- tor in this market, which at the pres- ent time will take care of some 2,000 boxes of good quality fruit this sea- son. The Canadian Trade Commissioner at Hong Kong states that market ,supplies of apples are negligible and those coming from the north,of China are almost inedible. The United • States heretofore has largely control- led the apple trade, with Australia placing some fruit during her ship- ping season. Until last year the Can- adian apple was practically unknown in the Chinese market, but shipments. made late in the season were well re- ceived. With several British and Chinese importers interested in developing the sale of Canadian apples the Can- adian Trade 'Gomtnvissionerurges ex- porters to get in touch with the Chinese trade through !his office at Hong Kong. Ile states that it should be possible to dispose of several thousand boxes of apples this year.
