 Potatoes were not quite as firm as at mid-week, either locally or at Maine shIpping points. Local whol J. salers were selling Maine stock as low as S2 zoo per 100 pounds com- pared with prices ranging from $2.i to $2.25 before. VI ost sales were from $2.9 to $e.l0 today. Reports from Maine quoted trading there at prices 5c per 100 pounds lower than the first of the week. Offerings ot native here were limited and wee selling mostly at unchanged prices from $1.25 to $1.35 per bushel.
 Oranges were showing little firmer tone with some grades anf sizes a little higher. This was sait to be due to increased demand fol lowing advertising stimulating then poses, being recommended for curing and preventing colds and allied ai1- ments.
 Although trading in native eggs was reported to be at prices which averaged lower, most reports indi- cated that the majority of sellers were not finding it difficult to sell out through regular channels at prices within ranges quoted for the several grades. It appeared from reports of a number of traders that present low prices were resulting in sufficient consumption to take care of toe current supply of native eggs. Reports of sales or surplus eggs at sharply reduced prices were not common.
