anxious inquiries as to the outlook Tor
winter supplies of white potatoes.

early one, but few reports received
as to the prospects for the winter sup
plies of the white stock are not eSpe-
clally encouraging.
There is a decided increase in sup
plies of tomatoes and the Vegetable is
Of splendid quality. Liberal supplies
of practically all other vegetables are
sufficient to meet demands.
