At this season there is also marked ten dency toward reduction in fresh p-o- duce.
 The Phelps Dodge company is re- ceiving two carloads, by express, of fresh fruits and vegetables each week from California. These ship ments include peaches, plums, grapes cantaloupes, apricots and all other fruits that are in the California mar kets. Fine apples are now coming in from California. Peaches and plums are now at the height of the harvest. Grape shipments have just started Carload lots of the luscious California muscat grape should be received the latter part of this month Earlier varieties of grapes are now becoming plentiful.
