Dealings have continued on an active
scale In the local wholesale fruit and
vegetable market. The buying has not
only been large, but it has been so gen
eral that it is not easy to pick out one
product more freely than another. Of
ferings have been large and of good va
riety, prices generally have been fairly
! reasonable. and dealers have not found
it hard to keep the market well cleaned
up.
Arrivals Of peaches in many instances
have been in poor order; there is a good
| market for choice sound lots. The
weather has been just right for a good
/ movement of watermelOns.
! Offerings of new potatoes are heavy
and the feeling is weak. Old stock is
1 practically exhausted and the few lots
| that remain are held at rather high fig
! ures. The market is stronger on on
ions. especially Egyptians, stocks of
which have been much reduced since a
week ago. The market is well supplied
| with cabbages from nearby points and
those from the south are having only a
fair sale.
Native string beans are now in stock,
but they are dear, and southern lots
so well, especially when fancy. Gu
cumbers have become very plenty and
are much cheaper than they were. Let
tuce has dropped little. Squashes are
plenty and cheap. Fancy tomatoes are
in light supply and are very firm.
Turnips are plenty, dull and lower.
Peas are fairly plenty, but in good de-
! mand and tirmer: Asparagus is in s1naIl
supply, but the demand is correspond
iugly light. CduIihOwers are lower.
