Choice Fruits and Vegetables Very
Scarce.
SACRAMENTO, July GOTH
The market to-day shows the effect of the
outside demand for fruits, local dealers COM
planning that nothing choice could be had. In
fact. it was useless 10 try TO meet demands, SO
buyers had to take an inferior grade or do
without.
shippers and Gamers are demanding full
hllment of all contracts, which will take
about all the drst-quality fruit the balance of
the season. OF course there is and will con-
tinue to be small receipts OF good fruit, but
nothing near the demand.
Dealers are not in quite so bad fix in the
vegetable line, but much larger quantity of
choice varieties would lind ready sale at good
prices
Receipts of Watermelons and Cantaloupes
increase as the season advances, and prices
continue TO drop.
