Some  of  the  fanciest  Starrs,  Wealthys 
and  Gravensteins  were  difficult  to  move 
at  50  to  70c  per  20-qt.  basket,  while 
good  hand-picked  fruit  was  selling  chiefly 
at  30  to  40c  per  basket.  Jersey  canta¬ 
loupes  affected  the  market  on  Delaware 
and  Maryland  stock  and  made  it  unprofit* 
able  for  the  more  Southern  States  to  ship. 
The  sale  of  blackberries  was  affected  by 
the  abundance  of  other  fruit,  10  to  13c 
per  qt.  being  about  all  they  would  bring 
on  the  open  market.  Peach  supplies  from 
New  Jersey  have  been  liberal  and  move¬ 
ment  draggy,  as  only  the  fancy  peaches 
seemed  to  be  wanted.  The  Carmans  are 
about  through,  and  Georgia  Belles,  Hiley 
Belles  and  Champions  are  the  leading 
varieties  of  white  peaches.  A  few  El- 
bertas  are  beginiJn"  to  arrive.  Delaware 
and  Maryland  have  been  shipping  El- 
bertas  which  ranged  from  $2.75  to  $3.25 
per  fcu.  in  the  local  market.  White  po¬ 
tatoes  were  a  little  stronger.  New  Jersey

price  received  for  mixed  breeds,  according 
to  reports.  In  the  meanwhile,  there  has 
been  less  call  for  live  broilers  and  the 
market  ruled  quiet,  often  weak,  the  3  to 
4-lb.  Plymouth  Rocks  selling  at  32  to  35c

down  to  25  to  27c  per  lb.,  the  latter  for

White  Pekin  ducks  advanced  lc  to  23  to

steady  at  18  to  20c.  The  dressed  poul¬ 
try  market  showed  but  little  activity. 
Fancy  fowl  were  kept  pretty  well  cleaned 
up,  but  dressed  broilers  were  inclined  to 
be  weak  at  33  to  38c  per  lb.,  although  oc¬ 
casional  lots  brought  a  premium  over 
these  prices.
