Decidnons and Citrus Fruits.

Receipts of Strawberries from nearby dis
tricts light. the rain of the preceding
day interfered with picking. Six chests of the
Longworth variety came In from Palo Alto and
cleaned up at previous prices There were no
fresh arrivals from Watsonville, but there were
several chests Of carried-over stock Offering
which were easily disposed of at the previously
quoted rates. Thirty crates OF large variety
came in from Los Angeles and sold at S6I10c
per basket. A crate of Raspberries came in
from the same section and met with prompt
sale al SOC per small basket.
Abundant supplies of poor Navel Oranges
caused an easier feeling in that department
of the market and prices of all grades were
quoted lower Trade quiet both for local
and shipping account and the market closed
weak with large lines still unsold. Business
in the auction quiet, there
very little good fruit offered. Twelve carloads
were sold as follows: Extra fancy Redlands,
81 T5a1 95; ordinary fancy. 81 25G1 go; choice,
75cdsI 45; standard 100000. The bulk OF the
standard and choice grades were in very bad
condition showing evidences of decay. Tan
gerines were more plentiful than previously
and sold at a wide range as to quality The
other Citrus fruits were in good request and
steady under light supplies. There were no
ripe Bananas on the market.

Shipments of Hay show some dimnution

ing in shipments has not helped the situation

that outside shippers received rather dtsap-
pointing figures for much of their Hay, which
has resulted In their disseminating shipping TO

present the market is very much depressed.
with most elements at work to lower prices
still further. We are inclined to believe, how
ever, that the worst is over and that the
situation will continue along fairly strong until
the new crop begins to arrive in quantities IL
was reported several days ago that volunteer
Hay YVES being cut in Contra Costa county:
The recent showers will probably spoil most OF
this, or at least keep 1t from the market for
some time to come. The Goth of May Is about
the average date for the first appearance OF

much earlier. In many districts the growth
is yet rather short, but now that we nave
had further showers there will probably be
great improvement in this direction and the
