and Nice Appearing
Strawberries Delayed by Cold and
Rain in the South.

From Fridays Daily.
The first new potatoes arrived IN the
city today, coming from Texas or one
of the other extreme southern states.
The local dealers will be handling them
tomorrow. They are large and nice.look-
ing.
Strawberries have been coming IN Tor
some time. but not in the way that
they ought to on account Of ram and
cold in the southern states, which made
the season backward there as well as
here. Under the circumstances the COM
mission house that gets good berries is
fortunate. Those that have been receiv-
ed thus far have come from Mississippi,
but in few days red fruit will be com
mo from further north, from Arkansas
and Tennessee. a nice invoice came in
TODAY. and are larger and more luscious
than any vet shown. Berries have been
retailing at Is cents a box, and are
cheaper and more plentiful than general
" at this time of the year in spite OF I'M
favorable weather conditions.
Rubarb and asparagus have been COM
inc in for some time, and are OF good
quality Peas, string beans and wax
beans are beginning to come III and VIII
soon be plentiful.
A sharp advance in oranges is look
ed for soon as a result of a trust getting
hold of the entire California crop. The
oranges received in the local market all
come from that state, and this year they
are of unusually good quality;
The California lemons that have been
received this year are ahead of the out
put of that state in the past, because the
growers and packers are adopting better
methods The keeping quality OF these
lemons is better than heretofore. In
another month Messina lemons viii be
on the market.
There never was finer lot of pine
apples received than this spring. They
are coming from Cuba, and the Red
Spanish is particularly inviting variety
Cocoanuts are being received from
South America, and are large and fine.
