On the 1st of February a reporter of a Philadelphia paper found strawberries, of the Sharpless variety, grown in a Wilmington, Delaware, hot-house, bring $7 per quart. They are also received from New York State. Ordinary-sized cucumbers, from the Continental Hotel farm, raised in hot-beds, sell for 75 cents each. For New Jersey hot-house peaches of not unusual size, the sum of $1.50 each is asked. The sales of these are said to be slow. Continental Hotel hot-house asparagus is also on sale at 50 cents per bunch. A Wilmington, Del., hot-house also furnishes ripe tomatoes, for which 80 cents per pound is asked. Winter hot-house grapes, it is said, are about gone, and the spring production will not be here until May. City-grown mushrooms are also on sale at 75 cents per quart.
