good average business for this
time Of the year was done in the local
fruit and vegetable market. Supplies
were somewhat smaller than they have
been recently and prices generally have
been firm Shipments are increasing
and larger supplies and lower prices
are looked for
Potatoes stiffened sharply. but de-
clined when there were large receipts
Onions are not so plenty as they were
and are firmer. though not materially
higher. Cabbages are in light supply
and high. Cucumbers are very plenty
and much cheaper. String beans are
slightly firmer but green corn, peas
and turnips have not changed much
since a week ago. Jersey tomatoes are
in large supply and cheap, but native
offerings bring good prices. Peppers
are easier and squashes have dropped
a little.
