Demand.
SACRAMENTO, August 9Th.

SACRAMENTO, August 9th.
The week ended with surplus of all kinds of
Fruits in the local market, the receipts at pres
ent being far in excess of the demand The
canneries are running in full blast and put
ting up fruit as fast as their capacities will
permit, but even they seem unable to handle
the offers from growers.
Watermelons of home growth are very
poor in quality, most OF the choice displayed
in market coming from Fresno.
Vegetables keep In supply about equal to
the demand, there being very little variation
in prices during the week.
Quotations In all lines remain the same as
in last reports.
