FRUIT.
In its review of the market the Rural Press
of the current week says that the local market
for green Fruit has shown continued activity
with better prices ruling for desirable canning
varieties. Apricots now coming in are meet
Ing with quick demand from Gamers, dry
ers and shippers. Peach Apricots and Moor
park AprIcOts have sold al from 2@21ac p 70.
according to size and locality grown. Royals
sold lower. Tragedy and also German Prunes
are coming in more freely. They meet with
quick market. Bartlett and Dearborn's
Seeding Pears are in good request for ship
ping and canning. Choice and good keeping
Apples are meeting with quick market at
good figures. The Peaches coming in are
cltngs. The quality is good. Some poor Craw-
fOrdS came to hand. They will soon be fol-
lowed by the best grades. Cherries and Cur
rants are going out. The former, unless very
choice, are poor sellers. We withdraw quota
tions. The Grapes that are coming to hand
are poor and hard TO sell; it would be mislead-
ing TO quote them. Melons are coming in
more freely. The market is declining Figs
hold up well; the consumption of the green
shows an increase each season. Nectarines
are scarce and high; with freer receipts, prices
viii shade of. More viii be canned and
dried this year, In Berries the market has
held hrm under good demand at last week S
prices. Gamers are paying as follows:
Peaches, Clings, 1$4@2c q ID, f. o. b.; Free

some few, it is said, paid slightly higher for
small parcels of selected to put up fancy
article for "a special or particular trade.
New York mail adviceS report a strong
market for all kinds of California new crop
dried fruits, with the views of sellers on the
market we were informed to-day that dried
Apricots are now held at from 1 1OG1215c.
For Raisins the market is shaping into good
position for the more choice grades. Buyers
will discriminate closely, and stuff only fit
for hogs VIII have poor show of being mar
keted, except at q loss. Growers should fight
against each and all who are trying to kill the
reputation OF California Raisins by market
ing poor grades. 1t will pay them well to do
so.
