   Vegetable Information Bureau Dec 15  
                                        
                                        
 Plentiful supplies of dessert and      
 cooking apples, much cheaper than last 
 year.  Avocados are very cheap, and    
 cranberries are in good supply.        
 There are plenty of citrus fruits in   
 the shops now.  Clementines are        
 slightly dearer, but satsumas are still
 very cheap.                            
                                        
 Conference pears are still good value  
 and look out for speciality fruit for  
 Christmas - lychjes, mangoes,          
 kiwifruit, paw paws, Cape peaches and  
 apricots and small pineapples.
