LOS ANGELES LOCAL MARKETS.

. During the week just closed a fair volume of
business was transacted by the local wholesale
and retail merchants, though no extraordinary
activity was manifested in any particular line.
Dealers in building materials are still enjoying
the best trade, all things considered. There Is
no letup in the So called building boom, and
the demand for lumber and other builders
supplies continues uniform and steady.
There have been few changes in the produce
quotations during the week. Grain, hay ana
milistuffs were steady. Provisions, poultry,
eggs and dairy products showed little variation.
Green fruits and vegetables showed little
change. Potatoes have stifened q little for the
better varieties. The market is deluged with a
poor quality OF onions, but prices are firm for
The most unsatisfactory branch OF trade is
dried fruits The product is larger and better
ducers who can afford it are holding their prod
uct for a rise IN the market, which they claim
is sure TO come after the green fruit crop s
used up in the east. Others who are pressed
for money are accepting sdvancesf rom COM
mission men at very low figures. Certain 1t is
that more California dried fruits will be con-
Sumed in the. east this year than ever before.
The one South rn California staple that is
brineing unusually nigh prices Is beans. The
yield In Ventura county this year. IS only
are accordingly high. Los Angeles beans are
not doing SO we'll, the quality being inferior
and the quantity sufficient to supply the de-
mand.
