Asparagus was in light receipt and cleaned up readily to the trade at higher prices. The canners were not buving, prices being beyond their limits. The canners were the principal purchasers of Peas and bought the bulk of the receipts of common stock at the minimum rate. Tomatoes from Los Angeles and Mexico continued to bring good prices and crates from Florida were in fair request at $6@6 50 per crate.

Quotations for butter are getting unsettled ain. There are now two interests on the atreet. One is a bear element, trying to get the market down to about 22%¢, so that storage can be resumed and the surpius be worked off in this way. They do not venture to store at present prices. They are making an aggressive fight, and will sell the pick of their floors at 24c. The other element is composed of dealers who are not particularly desirous of storing and are willing to get all the goods will stand. Be- {wecn these two forces there is a range of about 2c in quotations. The prices quoted be- low, while neither the highest nor the lowest, represent about the figures at which the great bulk of the Butter Is being sold. ‘Fhere is no change in Cheese or Eggs. Sup- plies of both are ample for ell trade needs and The daily receipts are being well absorbed.
