title: Kendo UI Grid local data source column sort by default
body: <p>Trying to set a default sort column on my kendo UI grid from a local datasource. I've read all over that I should be putting:</p>
  
  <pre><code>sort: { field: "price", dir: "desc" }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>onto the data source. I've tried this and it still isn't working (see bottom of following example).</p>
  
  <p>Here's my code in full, where am I going wrong?</p>
  
  <pre><code>$('#grid').kendoGrid({
                  dataSource: [
                      {
                          date: "Feb 13 2014",
                          price: 5,
                      },
                      {
                          date: "Feb 15 2014",
                          price: 7,
                      },
                      {
                          date: "Feb 12 2014",
                          price: 6,
                      }
                  ],
                  height:500,
                  sortable: true,
                  pageable: false,
                  columns: [
                      {
                          field: "date",
                          title: "Date"
                      },
                      {
                          field: "price",
                          title: "Price",
                      }
                  ],
                  sort: {field: "price", dir: "desc"}
              });
  </code></pre>
