The past week has been another busy
one for the local wholesale fruit and
nroduce dealers. The demand is con-
stantlv broadening and the transac-
tions are little larger than they usu-
ally are at this season of the year. The
market appears to be well stocked and
but few products are dear.
The abundance of strawberries takes
all the life out of the demand for APP
pIes. and. if it were not for the bakers.
apple dealers would do very little. Re
cefpts recently have been very light,
and ii is believed that the country is
well cleaned up. Prices do not change
much Russets are slow, and there is
some disposition to shade prices on
them. There are still about 210O bar
rels Of apples in cold storage, but in
another month many of these will have
been sold.
Native asparagus is coming along
freely and selling steadily at S3J0@
40 a box for average lots, and as high
as $3.50 for fancy large grass. Jersey
( stock is in large supply, in light de-
mand and cheap. CabbageS are plenty
and in steady request, but prices take Il
! wide range Cucumbers are taken well
and are steady. Offerings of onions are
very heavy and since the demand is not
| large they are cheap. Peas are not
| wanted unless they are choice and well
/ filed. String beans are in good demand,
! but full quotations are obtained only
! on the best lots. Choice ripe tomatoes
! have a good sale Old potatoes are in
| light supply and firm. Only the best
lots Of new stock sell well. The mar
ket is heavily overstocked with North
Carolina sweets and they drag at low
and easy prices. Native spinach, kale
and dandelions are plenty and cheap
Turnips are higher and firm. Squashes
are out of the market
