BUYING BOOM IN FALL IS PREDICTION NEW YORK, July 21.—The buying boom is on. Retailers throughout the country stalking thousands that business will take a jump in the fall, are laying in big stocks for the first time in years. "Business is bound to take a leap upwards," Alfred Santle, buyer for large department stores from San Francisco to Boston, told the United Press today. "Garment retailers I represent are placing huge orders. The demand has taken such a sudden upward trend in the last few weeks that we have been forced to double our staff." "It is a different kind of buying from the pre-war days. The demand is for staple goods, not frills. People are going to buy socks, underwear and shirts—not earrings and fancy vests. All they want is utilities and necessities. “There is no doubt that the public will make a big demand for necessities in September and October. For the last few years many merchants have feared to lay in new stocks in huge quantities and have been selling what they had on hand. But now they are convinced that we have traversed a few more miles on that road back to normalcy and are preparing for the rush. -If it's from Witman's it’s good!

Mr. Clarke is noticing in Oregon and what he has to say about the price of oranges will be of interest. "I priced some California Valencias in Salem today—65 cents a dozen for 150 size. That is $8.12 a box; and the Riverside grower can figure out himself the difference between what the grower receives and the consumer pays tight here in a state next to Oregon. Here in Oregon the growers are only being offered four cents a pound for beautiful Bing cherries and some of the growers are letting them go to waste.
