sACRAMENro MARKET.
Strawberries and Cherries of Good
Quality in Demand.

SACRAMENTO, May 16, 1892.
The effects of Saturday nights storm is al
ready shown on the local market, early Cher
ries being much damaged, ana causing
marked decrease in supplies. Especially is
this the case with Black Tartarians. In fact
the latter are as scarce as though we depended
on the New England States for supplies and
mule teams were the only means of trans
portation. White Cherries are displayed, but
the quality is very inferior. Strawberries also
suffered and the limited supply is eagerly
seized at advanced rates. Gooseberries are
arriving very slowly With continuance of
to-day's good weather we may look for Rasp-
berries making their appearance within few
days, though TO Il limited extent only and at
fancy prices. Lines are plentiful, and Ie.ati
at from Toe to 15c = dozen. The market is
plentituuy supplied with Oft grades of
Oranges while choice varieties are scarce and
in demand. A carload OF Bananas arrived to-
day, and the market is well represented, re-
tail prices ranging from 25c to soc q dozen,
according to quality.
Many Varieties of vegetables are also scarce,
notably new Cabbage, the demand far exceed
ing the supply. String Beans are in limited
supply and find ready sale. This is not alone
due to there being scarcity Of the edible
vegetables, for quite a quantity is being
shipped to Eastern points. Peas are plentl-
ful and Potatoes are coming in more freely.
The season for Asparagus is rapidly drawing
TO a close, and ere long will be no longer
quoted. Onions arein fair supply and slight
decline in prices is noted. Taken n whole,
the market is not OYeTburdened with vege-
tables at present.
Butter and Cheese are in moderate supply,
and are quoted a fraction lower.
Poultry in most lines is limited Broilers be-
ing the only one well represented. Grown
Chickens are very scarce, and bring fancy
figure. Turkeys also show slight advance.
The outlook for Hay and Grain is that an
average crop may be expected. The late rains
did some damage TO early-SoWn Grain in the
lowlands, but benefited The late sown. In the
foothills it was greatly, appreciated, and
also slightly damaged, but to no great ex-
! tent.
