Review of the Sacramento Markets
For the Past Week.
Taken as a Whole It Has Been q
Prosperous One to Dealers
in Produce.

DuSy one III local ana at the Closing
hours last evening stocks were about closed
out While small quantity OF commoner
grades were left on hand, little or nothing OF a
choice grade remained.
All the carly varieties OF Vegetables are now
showing up well, and the quality is good in
deed in most lines. Green Peas drug on
the market and dealers are ready TO dispose OF
them at almost any price, 4G6c being the top
figures asked. OF course an exception is made
In the case of Sugar Peas, which have made
their appearance. They are Of good quality,
and retail at Sc Asparagus Is now coming in
An prime quality, and prices are within the
reach OF all, selling at &C q ~ CGcumbers,
which are hot-house raising, are short, choice
retailing at 81 so ? dozen, while culls bring
all the way from soc TO 75c 3 dozen. Rhu-
barb is going up. A large quantity, the quality
of which was tirst-class, made its appearance
Saturday, Tue product OF Sacramento County.
1t was larger and OF better flavor than that
which has heretofore come 10 market, nom
the bay and southern counties, and conclu-
slvely shows, If this industry was properly
nurtured, that instead ofimportipg this coun-
" would soon do u lucrative business export
ing. String Beans are not yet very plentiful,
and prices rule high. Early Cabbage is in
market. 1t was raised at Costumes and so
lar as is known is the first which has reached
market from any portion of the State.
Fruit of all descriptions is scarce except
Oranges, which are plentiful and cheap.
There are no choice Apples to be had though
at present they would command fancy
price. In TACT there have been but few OF good
quality in market the past winter. Srawbtr-
RES rom this section are expected TO make
their appearance IN market the latter part of
ms or the early part OF next week unless the
weather should turn of stormy and cold. In
dicationS at present point 10 an average crop.
Potatoes are booming at present, with
strong Indications OF going to Sc before the
end OF the month.
Turkeys at present are extremely scarce
with very fair demand. Chickens are
easier. Ducks are scarce and high. Geese are
also in good demand prices being firm. Eggs
are pretty well cleaned up, and prices are
likely to soon advance.
There las been little or no game TO be had
the past week, although the demand had been
good.
The Butter market is easier, receipts being
ample to meet all inquiry.
In all other lines the markets are easy, no
changes being noted since last reports.
