A.few Of the products in the whole
sale fruit ard vegetable market have
not been cleaned up as dealers would
have liked, but the market as. "a whole
has been satisfactory. Cantaloupes.
Georgia peaches and pineapples were
the exceptions to the rule; the receipts
! of all these have been large, and they
were affected by the muggy weather.
| Good. sound fruit has sold we'll The
| general trend of prices has been toward
lower level. but in a few cases they
have advanced.
Trading in apples has not yet
| amounted to much. Arrivals so far
have been almost entirely in baskets
| Choice large sound lots have sold well
and at good prices, but poor stock goes
cheap. All kinds of berries, except
strawberries. have been in good supply

ply and firmer.
The market is we'll supplied with new
potatoes and. since the demand is not
very brisk, the tendency of prices Is
downward. String beans are very
plenty and the outside quotation is hard
to secure. The market is overstocket
with cabbages and some lots have <
be forced off at very low figures. Ma
tive celery has appeared and is quoted
at 81 q dozen punches. Green corn il
