ABLES-Asparagus sells remarkably
WELL considering the liberal receipts. which this

are OF the opinion that the presence of large
numberof Strangers in the city accounts to some
extent for the good inquiry. There was deluge

sacks. Commission men who have been identi-
fed with this line of trade for over two de-

Interfered with picking. Prices are higher.

figures The market is still furnished with ber-
ries that are inferior and not worth quoting.
