1t has been dull ard featureless in
the local fruit and vegetable market
The demand ia always light just after
thanksgiving, but this year the dull
ness has been rather more pronounced
than usual. Supplies, particularly Of
garden truck, are sufficient for the de-
mand, but prices as a whole are firm.
The apple market is improving. Re
ceipts have not only been smaller, but
also of better quality The recent I'M
| satisfactory conditions were due In
large measure to an over-supply of COM
mon fruit, but that surplus has been
used up and the market is in better
shape than it has been before in sew
eral weeks. An active demand and
higher prices are looked for during the
neXt few weeks. Cranberries have
moved slowly, but receipts have hot
been large and they hold up well.
Grapes have not gone very well. The
domestic stock will not last much
longer. The usual call for pears from
other markets is lacking this year.
Potatoes were dull and easy, but tae
demand improved little, and though
prices did not advance, a steadier feel
ing is apparent. Receipts of string
beans are light and fancy lots brils s,
high prices. Cabbages are mue h
scarcer and a slight advance has been
established. Choice sound onions are
i'll steady demand and firm. Squasht S
