The Week Closes ON an Active Local
Market.
SACRAMENTO, May 2sth.
The past week was a fairly good one In local
market circles. there being little of a choice
quality on hand at the closing hours last
evening. Poultry was a scarce article yester-
day, and it is safe to say many who had
counted on chicken dinner We're disap-
pointed.
The north wind the early part of last week
caused Strawberries to ripen very rapidly, and
the bulk of the crop was thrown on the
market within few days, causing prices 10
weaken. The prospects ahead are certainly
more encouraging, so far as prices are con
eefAed; 10 growers. II looks as though there
! would be marked decrease in receipts and a
corresponding Increase in rates. kaspberries
