The past week has been quiet and un-
interesting in the local fruit and vege-
table market Buying has been light.
grapes have cleaned up well, but light
receipts rather than an active demand
have been the cause. The changes in
prices have been few and small.
receipts of apples have not been par
tcularly large, but the demand has
been so light that they have accumu-
lated somewhat and prices for ordinary
truit have been shaded. There Is al
ways a good market for really fancy
apples. The season for peaches Is
practically over. Pears are dull
ounces have a fairly good sale. Chest
nuts are coming along fairly fast now
and they sell at SIS a bushei, but are
likely to be lower before long.
