MIDSUMMER BUSINESS ON
CARY-THIRTEENTH STREET
Confined Largely to Fowls, Fruits,
Calrcs md Lnmbs--PriccS for
Chickens Somewhat Lower.

lntckcuS somewhat Lower.
The wholesale produce dealers and
commission merchants who furnish
the life to certain blocks of East
Cary and Thirteenth Streets confined
their activities last week largely to
selling poultry, eggs, vcals and fruits.
Receipts OF chickens were large and
varied, and the business in them was
quite active at the reduced prices.
small chicks were down TO IS TO AZ
cents per pound. while the large
sized brought 40 to -. An over sup
ply OF white lcChornS brought the
figures for that particular bird down
considerably. After the white ley
horn passes the one and Il half or
two pound weight II is not popular as
a broilcr. Fresh eggs We're active at
~ TO - per dozen
Neals were in fairly good receipt
and u little more active at s TO l6
cents per pound. Lambs brought Ii
TO l6.
The market was glut,ed with in
fcrior apples grown in nearby
windfalls and over-ripc fruit. The
scarcity and high price OF sugar
makes 1t impracticablc for the pre-
servers and sauce makers to use such
apples TO any extent. hence the de-
mand was light and prices saGged
while good eating apples readily
brought 81 to So. Watcrmelons were
in lighter receipt and prices still
have downward tendency. Virginia
potatoes were in large receipt and in
active demand. going at sc TO $3.50
rcr barrel.
Little change in prices is expected
for this week. except heavy re-
cciptS of chickens may force the
prices down still lower and the cx-
Weakening in eggs and some OF the
fruits.
