Potatoes, Onions and Vegetables

Receipts of potatoes were heavy during the
week just ended. but with business local ac-
count and in shipping channels active the mar
ket maintained strong position throughout and
closed firm, with both river goods and Salinas
Burbanks higher. In the onion market the situ-
alton was just the reverse, the daily arrivals
being far in excess of requirements, and at the
close there was a heavy accumuia tion of sup
plies on the wharves and at the stores, which
receivers were trying to sell by cutting prices.
Sweet potatoes were also a weak feature the
demand being light and supplies excessive. les
bay came to hand late, and the stock had TO
be sold hurriedly or held over prices were weak
and lower. Tomatoes were very weak. with
both bay and river goods selling at the same
range, and while a few brands sold up to 81 in
small way there was not enough business at
that figure to justify such quotation. All the
other vegetables were weak, with supplies more
or less in excess of market needs.

Hay and Feedstutfs

There is nothing new in the situation. The
circular of Scott & Magner says:
Receipts of hay for the week just past have
been $500 TONS The larger proportion OF this
came to market over the railroads, cars
for the shipment of hay have become available
all over the lines, and the large lots that have
been awaiting shipment for some weeks have
been able to move in rapidly. This active
movement has caused quite little overcrowd-
ing for the moment, and little difficulty has
been experienced this week in handling and tax
ing care of these heavy arrivals. Receipts by
exception of the alfalfa, which will come in
from the river districts, there is very little
hay tributary to the bay landings that is un-
stored. and therefore there will be comparative
ly little grain hay to come by boats for the
AS soon as this little rush is over, which viii
take all of the hay out of the fields, better
feeling is expected to develop and better prices
no doubt viii follow.
quiries in this market from along the coast and
from the interior points present better

be distributed through these lines.
Alfalfa hay is now coming to market more
freely and will continue to do for some time
to come. Many of the large consumers are pre-

lar buyers had left the market, and a re-
suit the unsold surplus at the close of business

the week, despite a good Saturday demand
Everything that had previously been weak as to
stil overloaded with unsalable stock, such
ripe Bartlett pears. clingstone peaches and or
dinary pllims. Peaches in carriers and In small
boxes from the mountain districts sold fairly
at satisfactory prices, and there was good
market for choice black figs, fancy apples and
Grated lots of plums and prunes, the latter be-
ing wanted chiefly for shipping purposes. Early
arrivals of good nutmeg melons sold readily at
60@I0c q box in the early trade, but in the
afternoon the best of. the belated arrivals could
be had at 50c and less, while soft and carried
over lots were at all times weak and could not
command anything like satisfactory prices. Can
taloupes and watermelOns both in over
supply and cheap, although there was good In
quiry for them. Common offerings Of apples

Gravensteins and bellhower were merely steady,

supplies. Berries were. easy, and surplus lots of
