THE FRUIT AND VEGETABLE CROP.

The vegetable crop has been severe
ly damaged by heavy and cold rains,
and peas, which were selling week
ago for $3.50 and So per bushel, are
now selling at from 81 to So, which
pays very little. Strawberries, which
went down in price few weeks ago,
have gone up again, and fluctuate ac-
cording to the weather.
Peas are being shipped at the rate OF
$50 to 800 bushel boxes per day, and
strawberries from IS to 100 crates per
day.
The peach crop is still very back
ward, many of the blooms not yet be-
ing out; it is difficult matter to tell
much about the crop.
The late frosts damaged the straw
berry crop some, which will be short.
Peaches still uninjured.
