Bricks Sell For $2 Kick In 'Em I A Sept 9 (IP) Bricks weighing a pound and a half apiece and selling at a price of 2 throughout the country aroused the curiosity of federal authorities and resulted In an investigation which has culminated in indictments against officials of the Vino Sano Grape Brick company charging conspiracy to violate the prohibition law Investigation revealed that the grapes were made of com pressed grapes On each brick was a printed caution that if water should be added to the contents of the brick the sub stance would ferment after three days and become alco holic While the label was in the form of a caution it also contained recipes for the trans formation of the brick into va rlous wines through the addition of flavors Amusement Directory Flow Hills Bros take the

in this section started to ripen Diversion Plan Had a normal condition existed iu the dried fig market the minimum could have been maintained throughout the season Collins believes The other part of the as marketing plan calling for diversion to other markets of all figs not sold in San Fran cisco by 11 each morning has been carried out nnd has resulted iu the ante of figs which otherwise could not have been disposed of at any price 4000 Boxes Shipped During the peak season just passed 4000 boxes or ten tons were sent to San Francisco dally About half of thc! or the amount estimates as sufficient for the bay market were sent from Modesto Ceres and other Stanislaus county points The remain der came from the south Because of weather conditions southern figs are usually of poorer

Francisco is one of the best fig markets in the United States overcrowded markets forced the price down tr 3 and 4 cents per pound and frequently mauy boxes of southern fruit were dumped because sale was Imposslole Ail association fittlt unsold hy 11 each morning was withdrawn and sent to coast or Eastern points Occasional losses were sustained Collins reports but in most case growers received
