The local fruit and vegetable market
does not change much. Business has
been quiet. but no more so than II usu-
ally is at this season OF the year.
Changes in prices have been Few ana
small. but the tone of the market in
general is firm. Only few products
are scarce ana almost nothing is too
plenty.
Apples continue dull, but hold up re-
markably well in spite of the large sup
plv. Cranberries usually sell we'll in
cold weather. but the recent spell does
not seem to have hoped the demand
very much; they are not very plenty.

! prices. Pears are still draggy and there
| is little or no call for pineapples.
! Strawberries are scarce and most of the
arrivals went at soc quart.
Arrivals of potatoes have been very

of 365c a bushel. The demand FOR
sweet potatoes has been very small
and sales are possible only at very low
prices. Cabbages are only moderately
plenty and are firm. Receipts of string
beans do not increase and they are
still very high. Cucumbers have

ard prices are firm. Squashes hold up
well. and onions and turnips, though
in good supply. are steady. Spinach
and kale are fairly plenty and reason
able. Tomatoes are scarce and high.
