Fruits aud Produce.

Fresh fruits and vegetables are now com
Ing on the market quite freely and as a re-
suit local jobbers report a good increase in
the volume of business. All such lines as
radtshes, asparagus, rhubarb, wax beans
and green peas are now being shipped 10
khc country. Strawberries are coming from
Texas and Louisiana and are good enough
10 ship TO the country. In view OF the in
creasing supply prices are, of course, going
down, as win be seen from the Quotations
given In another column. Prices on the
old staple lines have not changed much
during the week under review.
ghe egg market has attracted consider
able attention OF late owing TO the excep-
tionally high prices ruling. Commission
men state that the production does not
seem TO be as large as usual, while the con-
sumption is fully as heavy as Il was a
year ago In spite OF the high prices. Stor-
age houses. however, are not Killing up as
rapidly as they did a year ago.
The poultry market was very firm the
nrst OF the week. but toward the close a
eased on a little in view Of more liberal re-
ceipts.
The butter market also held firm the
prst part Of the week, but the feeling nov
ls that there will be a big drop within a
very short time. Some dealers look for II
the latter part OF this week and say tina Il
may amount 20 as much as Sc per pound.
