plentiful but there is more poor stock than can
be readily sold at the lower figure. Egg Plant
is well represented, with but moderate demand.

wants. Tomatoes continue to drag, and Gu
cuinbers are not much better. Tomatoes, l5@

Fku4I-The supply and demand have about
balanced Tor the past week. so that there has
been uniformity in values. The-warm weather
helps IN the disposal OF stock. Heavy shipments
OF Apples were made to the Australian colonies
lew days ago, aggregating Il, coo boxes, but the
market is still abundantly stocked, and prices
keep about the same as before this relief was af-
foTded. Lines are in demand and steady in
price. Choice Peaches command high figures.
Most of the offerings OF this variety. however.
are OF poor quality. Prunes and Plums make so
poor showing as to be considered out OF season.
