Strictly fancy offerings are selling off well enough at firm prices and the best Oregon Burbanks are a little higher, but there has been no improvement in the de- mand for cheap stock as yet. Onions are still rather ?;tlel but the market is reported steady at the old quotatione. There was a marked falling off in the re- celpts of Asparagus, but the decreased sup- plies proved more than sufficient for regular market needs and prices of extra stock had a fractional decline. The canners were still op- erating freely and secured surplus lots of the lower grades at_$#@3c per pound.

Others. however, still found business brisk and in condition for seilers. The general demand for all three products is above the average at this time-of the year. as frequently observed af late. The arrivals of Butter from the north- ern coast continue to Increase and there is now no particular scarcity in any grade. Re- ceipts of Eggs are not running as excessive as a week ago, though there are plenty com- ing In, and half the arrivals have to be placed in storage in default of buyers.
