Plentiful and Weak.
SACRAMENTO. Feb. gath.
Business was only tolerably fair in the loca.
markets to-day. Receipts of the various ar
tlces of Produce were fully up to the average
with only limited demand.
Game was plentiful to-day. More Ducks
Quail and Rabbits having arrived than the
demand called for. Ducks, however, were
confined to the common varieties, tor which
at present there is little call. Mallards and
Canvasbasks in large quantities would find
ready sale, even at the fancy prices ruling.
Vegetables OF all kinds are doing well, and
move off rapidly. Asparagus and Peas are
coming in more freely, and drop in prices is
likely soon to occur
Eggs are more than plentiful, and top rates
now asked by retailers do no: go above 2215c
per dozen. Butter is also in over-supply and
weak.
Poultry is in good supply, prices having a
downward tendency.
& In other lines there is no change in the stu.
alton since last reports.
