TUESDAY, June 18, 1888.
Country Produce-Jobbing Prices.
Home-raised strawberries are in bountiful
supply. Continuous rains have resulted in
large quantities of berries coming to markets
in poor condition. Raspberries begin to come
in freely, and will supplant the strawberry in a
few days, to be in its turn supplanted by black
berries. Every dog and every berry has its
day. The strawberry's day for this season will
soon come to an end. and the housewife who
has not yet done her preserving in this line is
advised to attend to it this week. The firmness
of old potatoes last week has brought forward
bountiful supplies, and the upward drift has
practically unchanged.
