A good demand and smaller receipts
nave made the local fruit and vegetable
market somewhat firmer. Lettuce is
very plenty and much lower, but GU
cumbers are not nearly as plentiful as
they have been and asparagus is really
scarce, The receipts from the sOutL
also have fallen off. String beans and
peas bring fancy prices and southern
tomatoes are by no means cheap. Cab
bages are fairly reasonable; prices diff
fer to correspond with the quality and
the condition. Receipts of seasonable
fruits also have diminished, and, al
though the average of prices is not
much changed, the market is more in
favor of the seller than it has been.
The season for old potatoes is pretty
nearly over and supplies are small new
stock is fairly plentiful and of good
quality. Onions are firmer under
smaller receipts. Rhubarb and dande-
lions are in fair supply only. Radishes
are cheaper.
