HOLIDAY FRUIT
IN GREAT VARIETY.

The holiday season this year is
accompanied by better crops of green
and dried fruits than for years past.
Although trade III these lines dur
ing the past two weeks has been
rather back ward, the outlook, par
tlcuIarly for oranges and lem )ns,
has grown brighter. and the pros.
pect for a plentiful Thanksgivi pg
supply Of fruit is very enCoura ging.
Increased demand for lemons has
caused the arrival Of larger quanti-
ties in the local market, and prices
are gradually declining. Although
the receipts Of Jamaica oranges are
smaller than at this time last year,
their deficiency has been fully made
up by the other receipts, CALIFORNIA;
being 1000 boxes and Floridas 1000
boxes in excess of last year.
Shipments Of Almeria grapes are
practically over, but the market is
in fairly good supply Of choice stocks.
The arrivals amount to about 1885,
600 barrels.
Bananas and pineapples are ar
irving in large quantities.
