There has been striking advance III
the price of cheese, largely in sympa-
thy with other markets and on account

Business has been brisk in the fruit
and vegetable market and as receiptS
of the various products have been run
ming lighter generally frmer feeling
ia evident. The movement Of fruits
has been especially lively and in this
section of the market the greatest
changes in prices have occurred. Car
den truck has not been so active,
chiefly because supplies have been
rather large.
Fancy apples still meet with ready
sale and bring good prices. Ordinary
stock is In somewhat better request
and the accumulations noted a week
ago have been so we'll reduced that
dealers say another week will see the
market pretty bare. Receipts OF fall
varieties are lessening all the time and
before a great while will give way to
winter stock.
Cranberries have advanced rather
sharply under a better demand and
smaller arrivals. Plums are no longer
quoted and the season for ounces is
drawing to a close. But little Of either
fruit is to be had. All the fancy pears
arriving are quickly placed in cold
storage for future wants, and most OF
the offerings in the open market are OF
DOOR quality. Grapes have continued In
good demand and have moved upward
In response to smaller receipts.
