PLENTY OF WATERMELoNs SooN.-The
watermelon season has not fairly opened
yet, although the shipments from the South
continue as large as at first. The time set
for the influx OF the Maryland and Virginia
melon Is about the last of this month, and
they are not expected before that time.
Good Georgia primes are on the market ,and
bring from eighteen to twenty five cents
apiece. They cut well, and the flavor is
fine, but nothing like our own good stock.
The farmers say the crop this year will be
large, and good melons may be secured for
fair prices. Light street and Pratt street
wharves are looking blue just at this time.
While there is plenty of fruit going out,
fruit does not seom to pile up as it might.

women was too much house
