=. CoUNTRY PRoDUCE-(Job prices)-
: Peaches and grapes have the precedence in
,fruit. lines Receipts of peaches to-day were
the largest for the week. There were about
eight carloads ons sale. Fancy stock is in
good demand at outside quotations. Grapes
are in supply beyond demand and prices are
ashade lower. Intropical fruit lines lemons
and oranges are scarce and firm, and bananas
steady Vegetables of all kinds are dull
and slow. The top price of potatoes is SOC
persbushel, and only the very choicest stock
commands this price. Supply of creamery
butter has caught up to demand, and mar
kets In this line are quiet. The advance of
last week appears tohave been premature.
and prospects now are that the advance will
be- lost. Prices have reached such height
that butterfne Is coming to the front, and
materially lessened of late. Strictly fresh
eggs are very firm at quotations.
