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. Pc.

higher than they were
There is little call for blueberries,
and but few coming forward. Gran
berries have a moderately active sale.
A small crop of this fruit is looked for
this year and high prices are expected
all through the season. Catalogues
are in light supply and higher. Plums
and pears are steady.
