Strawberries in considerable abundance appeared from the South about the first of April. They were chiefly Albany seedling, and only average samples of this old kind. On the 1st of June the fruit growers of the vicinity of the city began to bring in their crops. It was very interesting to note the differences in prices. While the Southern " berries " were rather dull at 6 cents a quart, wholesale, the finer home products found ready sale at 20 to 25 cents. The best articles are the most profitable.
