Produce and Prices.

The early tomato season is now OH and
growers are kept busy day and night
gathering, and packing them while other
work also PUSHES them. Never were so
many tomatoes picked and shipped from
this region before July 4th as there has
been this year. Since the plants were
set in the fields the last week in April
and the first week in May there was no
wind nor heavy rain to damage them.
Never was there such a heavy crown set.
Some vines are small but have a heavy
crown set. Blight has appeared in some
patches and the vines have begun to die.
Last Saturday Wilmington market op-
ened at So. so a basket and closed at 81. sc.
Gu Monday the price opened at ST.. so and
went down to $l.25, Tuesday, Wednes-
day and Thursday 80 cents to 81 a bas-
ket.
Denny Bros. started their boat to Phil
adelphia last Monday and have been TAX
ing from 500 to 800 baskets daily. The
prices in Philadelphia have been about
the same as in Wilmington with a great
Ell de mand.
Last Saturday Grated tomatoes at Penns
Grove were from 1925 to S {. so. On Mon
day and Tuesday, $3.50 to $3.50, Wednes-
day 81 to SLIPS; Thursday 5000 cents.
The crates cost from 10 to IL cents which
are included in the prices above. This
Friday morning prices were 1886 a crate.
The price OF Jersey tomatoes never fell
SO rapidly in recent years. The large
cities were glutted this week with fruit
from Mississippi which is from ten DAYS to
two weeks late. The rapid fall in price
will not warrant shipping many from the
South after this week. While the prices
may not advance much, yet a frmer mar
ket is looked for.
The cooler weather the past few days
and the fine rain Wednesday night were
very favorable for the fruit. The fruit
was never of finer quality.
Other produce has been sold in Will
mington at the following prices; white
potatoes, 65-75 cents a basket, beans 80,
onions 81 .4O-$l.5 so, apples 1880, cabbage
