EPIT0ME OF LOCAL MARKETS.
LINsEED OIL NOW COMMANDS A
BETTER PRICE.

The Local Demand Good at the Ad-
vance Prospective Shortage in
New Crop of Seed May Affect the
Price Later-LemOns in Demand,
with Receipts 80 Per Cent. Less
Than Last Year-Bananns Scarce,
Though the Trade Is Being Fairly
Wei Supplied.
The demand for hnseed Oil has carried
the price up about cents, raw being CSC
and boiled zoe. The consumption has in
creased largely during May, and partic-
ularly is this the case in the South. Sa-
Vannah jobbers report a good business,
Notwithstanding the recent labor troubles
which have possibly tended to check the
progress of building 10 some extent The
fact that much larger quantities of lead
are used In this section than ready mixed
paints, accounts for the extensive han
ding of oil. The trade are considerably
interested at present in the approaching
crop of seed, which it is said, win prob
ably be high-priced owing to the prospec-
tive light yield.
Fruit dealers find continued spirited
demand for lemons which are selling now
at $500 per box. Receipts this season are
estimated to be 80 per cent. short of last
year. with the prevalence OF hot wealth
er throughout the section which is sup
piled by Savannah dealers, comes an in
creased demand for the fruit which keeps
the market fairly well cleaned OF the Of
ferings. As one dealer puts 1t, IF the
demand doesn't clean up the market the
weather Will" The medicinal qualities
which lemons possess largely. increases
the demand for them. They are used
largely at this season as tonic. Sa-
vannah's receipts come by steamer from
New York, where the fruit is received in
immense quantities from Italy, for dis
tribution in this country The new crop
generally reaches the American markets
in November.
Bananas are scarce, and consequently
command good PRICES, the range at pres
ent being from $l25 to s. q per bunch
The fruit comes from Central America
and the West Indies, through the ports
OF New Orleans and Mobile respectively
Both the local and outside trade is being
fairly wen supplied, but dealers are not
