While select spuds show the greatest scarcity known here for many years at this season, there is little of moment in the trade. While the Front street market is showing strength and values are rul ing us high as $1.25 a cental for ex tra select offerings of retailers, the outside demand is at low ebb. . Shipments to California are unusu ally limited and there is little incli nation among buyers acting for that account to take hold except upon the receipt of actual orders.- The south west is not a bidder for potatoes here because other places are selling for leSS.
