COUNTRY PRODUCE (Jobbing Prices)-
Receipts of grapes and peaches are light,
and markets are tending upward. House.
holders who failed to lay in supplies of
peaches last month will pay higher prices
now. As home-raised fruits wane, those
from the tropics are growing firmer. Lemons
are very scarce, and choice stock sells read
lily at outside quotations. Vegetables of all
kinds are slow, with situation in favor of
buyers. Sweet potatoes are heavy stock at
prices quoted. Choice dairy products are
fairly steady at old prices. Strictly fresh
eggs are scarce and firm ut prices quoted.
Produce men are CARRYING light stocks in
both fruit and vegetable lines, and, with the
advent of cooler weather, prospects are
good for better prices
