LARGE STRAWBERRY SUPPLIES
The Ledger, Philadelphia, of Monday
speaking of the berry market says: The
past week was prolific in strawberries.
In addition to large receipts from Vir-
ginia, Delaware and Maryland, Jersey
poured in the first instalmcnts of her
production, but, although dealers say
the suppls for time was large, there
was at no time glut, except perhaps
for some quite small varieties, kind
usually taken out by hucksters. On
Friday and Saturday the supply was
somewhat diminished, owing, it is said,
to continued dry weather and the fact
that the crop Of southern berries is on
the wane. The present week will
bring the Jersey berry season to its
height, and some very fine fruit is ex-
pected from that section. They were
selling, wholesale, on Saturday all the
way from to Is cents per quart
DeWberries, from Delaware and Mary
land, have made their appearance in
market, but they are rather immature
and sell for from 5 to cents per quart
wholesale.

Cholera is spreading in Spain and
cucumbers are getting cheap in Phila-
delphia. Thepopular prejudice against
the cucumber is, however, cruel and
unjust. A stale cucumber is unwhole-
some as any other stale vegetable, and
it is time this long, green dream of de-
light had rights in this country which
people will be bound to respect.
