Re ceipt of asparagus were heavier today than for sometime and the market is much easier en green . and ordinary white grass. Soma dealers were experiencing difficulty cleaning up on lower grades and were ot the- opinion that lower prices might be expected if the heavy receipts continue. The market on old potatoes is weaker. Lo cal supiiUea are not excessive, but cars are coming ia almost every day from the northern states, causing a much easier feeling among the dealers. . Trading on Gems at the track, was reported at) $1.75 to $2.00 cvt, which will necessarily bring down prices on tha ftreets to the retailers. Supplies of new po tatoes are heavy . and garnets are selling at 2 to 2 to cents a pound, while fancy white po tatoes sold aa high as 3 cents. The higher prices on berries during tha last few days has lessened demand and dealers were forced to drop on both blacks and straw berries, the latter selling 5 to 10 cents leas en drawers. The wide range in prices ia duo largely to the great difference in quality. Cantaloupes are steady to firm, with a good demand reported. Plums and cucumbers are slightly lower. Rhubarb is scarce . aad ad vancing in price. New supplies of lettuce were received today 'and prices on lead erates ranged from $1.25 to $1.50, while dry crate sold from 75 cents to $1 each.

That the rising price of cotton has had aome effect on the wool mar ket is evidenced today by evidence to the ef fect that yarn users are showing a tendency to meet the quotations of the spinners. It ia not general sign, but the trend exists and white ttsera are still for the most part offering bkis below the spinners' quotation, there ia mani festly a willingness to come up. Men's., wear ftbrci are doing so well that one may venture tu predict that the corner has been turned. However, admitting that this may be so. shrewd observers suggest that sellers watch- their atep and not proceed too recklessly. They mean, of course, that care should be taken not to boost prices so high that buyers will suddenly stop. BOBTOX COPPER STOCKS Reported by Overbeck A Cooke Co. Adven. Ahmeek Algomah Allouex .
