Smaller receipts and a better de
mand have made the local fruit anC
vegetable market firmer and more
satisfactory from the standpoint o
| the wholesale dealers. The colo
weather has practically ended outdoor
| production in this vicinity, and from
now on the greenhouses and the south
will supply the market with truck
Supplies from both these sources are
small and the last of the products
grown out of doors are rapidly becom
ing exhausted.
Potatoes are not arriving as freely
as they were, and as those which
have been shipped lately are better
than those sent few weeks ago,
prices are higher. But they are still
reasonable and there is not much dan
ger that they will go very high this
season, as the crop of the country is
moro than 20, 900, 900 bushels larger
this year than last year.
Cabbages and onions are in good
supply and low, and the crop reports
seem to indicate that they will re-
main so during the winter. Celery is
less plenty and somewhat higher.
