The most notable weakness In the
local fruit and vegetable market is in
apples. The movement Is slow and, as
receipts have been larger, peaches are
distinctly easier. Local prices are low
er than those at the primary points. Po-
tatoes and cucumbers are considerably
higher than they were.
There is little call for blueberrles.
and but few coming forward. Cram
berries have n moderately active sale.
A small crop of this fruit Is looked for
this year and high prices are expected
all through the season. Cantaloupes
are in light supply and higher. Plums
and pears are steady.
