1t has been a rather uninteresting
week in the local fruit and vegetable
market. Trading has not had the
snap that it would have had if the
weather had been really cold, and
stuff is coming to market rather more
/ freely than usual at this season of the
year.
Fancy apples are still but small
proportion of the receipts and are
still high, but plenty of good cooking
apples are to be had at low prices
Choice sound potatoes are not
plenty, but poor ones are abundant
and prices have low range. Maine
has much smaller crop of potatoes
than last year, but a good crop was
raised in the rest of the country. AS
the Maine potatoes are rather poor,
they will probably rule low, especial
ly as there promises to be only light
demand for them from other sections
of the country.
