Late Dairy Markets,

CHEEsE.-The market at Utica, n. Y.
than it did a week ago. About thirty
factories were represented, and between
$500 and $500 boxes of cheese were en-
tered for sale on the register. In addition
several lots were sold outside the room
One Madison county factory sold over
300 boxes. Other lots were sold outside
1t is safe to say that not less than $500
boxes were offered, most of which were
sold, and few sent on commission. The
prices range from II 1-2 to 10 Sc. These
it must be borne in mind, are strictly
cash prices. There is neither time moi
extra weight given at this market The
| cheese is paid for when delivered, and
factory men are expected to give only an
honest pounl of sixteen ounces avoirdu-
pois.
The New York market closed about the
same IS the week before 1t was duller
in the beginning, but owing to lighter re-
ceipts than anticipated, prices stiffened,
and shippers freely paid IL he, while
choice selections and fsncies for home use
reached as high as 13c. The receipts
were 26,5s0 boxes, and the exports 22,742
with gold closing at 112 3,S, the highest
quotation 1885,, and the cable at els, I'd.
For the corresponding week last year, the
receipts were 19,089 and shipments 3d.
S42 boxes, with gold at 113 1-2, the high
est quotation IA &C., and the cable at
6Ss.
The Producers Price Current says
"There is a good inquiry for fine Ohio
factory, in jobbing way, from the home
trade and as high as 12c. has been paid.
The farm dairy cheese arriving are gener-
ally inferior. A good inquiry prevails for
small cheese a lot, fine in quality, weigh
ing 50 to SO lbs.-12 inch hoop, six inches
deep,-sold at en- exceptional price, and |
more in the same style would bring a
ready sale both from exporters and home
buyers We by no means argue, however,
that it would be wise for large number
Of factories to adopt this style of cheese
New English dairy have appeared, but
ire not yet euotable."
BUTTER.-There is some improvement
n the butter N arket, and choice state in
New York, goes as high as Orange county,
'0c. 1t is worth 25o at Utica, and farmers
will do well to part with it freely, instead
f allowing it to accumulate and glut the
nsket in the fall, The Producers Price
1Hrrent learns that there is good deal
+ butter in the hands of dealers in the
ountry, which may come forward and
