Wheat Market Stronger, Choice Lots
Selling More Readily.
stocks in the Produce Market Ac'
cumulating, Shading of Figures
Being the Rule.


Yesterday was a quiet day in the local Prod
uce markets, and there was considerable COM
plaint on the part of dealers that supplies
were accommodating, and even shading the low
asking figures now prevailing did not appear
TO clean up stocks. Receipts of the day were
rather heavy, and there was quite quantity
which came to hand in poor condition. Fresh
Fruits are dull and the inquiry Is only mod
crate. Oranges keep on coming to hanu IN
liberal quantities and a goodly proportion Is
ofmedium or common grade. This, of course,
has to be sold for lower figures, but as it
makes a fair appearance it sells freely and
thus interferes with the sale of strictly first
class stock. Seedlings are plentiful and sales
are quite extensive, with prices steady at
quotations. Choice Apples are in light supply
and held firmly. Vegetables are in demand
and receipts are rather light. tropical Fruits
remain steady at prices, and supplies are we'll
proportioned TO the inquiry. Nuts meet with
glow sale and stocks are in excess of req uire-
ments. Dried Fruits are not materially
changed. Peaches and Raisins appear to be q
shade weaker, although trading continues in
both varieties at about the same prices as
have ruled tor several weeks past. Aprlcots
meet with better demand at the recently re-
d0ced price. EVapOrated Apples are also
nrmer 1here Is some inquiry ior account OF
Eastern trade. Dairy products remain very
low priced, although the volume OF transac-
tions continues large. Eggs are shade
nrmer but Butter is easy. Poultry remains
steady. The Wheat market is somewhat
stronger and choice lots sell more readily at
quoted rates. Export trade is moderate.
