CHEESE.
The Utica market was dull. Monday.
but The offerings reached $500 boxes.
About 1000 boxes were sold at 1890
123c.. most of it at 12a124c. One fac
tory was reported sold at 123c This
was the first Monday after the Fourth,
when the market is always dull Last
year the market reached its lowest figure
the second week in This month.
at Little Falls the offerings. sales and
shipments of private dairy amounted to
$50 boxes. The prices paid for these
ranged all along from 5@12c. The rul-
ing prices were 11@113c. Fully 10000
boxes of factory were offered. About
8. 900 of these were sold. Nearly one
fourth went on commission The ruling
figures were 124@193c. The high figure
was 123c, good number of the leading
factories receiving that price.
The receipts in Boston, last week,
were $3.50 boxes. There was fair de
mand. hut with liberal receipts prices
were &c. per ID. lower. The finest New
York and Vermont factory did not com
mand over t25c and the sales were prin-
cipally at 11!@19c. per H., whichis now
the ruling range for choice Ohio factory.
Common to good dairy and factory

Business in New York closed on
Thursday, and has not yet got fairly
running again. The Produce1Y' Price
Current says
The free movement has continued I'M
checked, but the complaints of lots out
Of order, so great last week are now in
creased The weather has been hot and
sultry and has caused ill-cured stock to
try very badly 1t is unfortunate that
the western factories are making so
many fiat cheese, the Cheddar shapes are
greatly preferred by the shippers, and
as the bulk Of the stock must be sold to
them, the price is thereby reduced. The
quality Of the western stock does not
average more than 1c. below State, the
difference in shape and style runs the
price far lower.
BUTTER.
ST. ALBANs. - The market was only
fairly active. We quote: Common to
fair, 90 to 23c; medium to good, % to
25c choice, 26c; selected, &c.
At Boston the receipts of butter last
week, were ten thousand three hundred
and eighteen packages, against eight
thousand three hundred and nineteen
packages for the corresponding week
last wear. For New York and Vermont
choice diaries % "a CSC have been the
ruling figures, and at the close buyers
were freely offering csc for fine lots,
which are rather scarce. There was a
good demand for Western, with sales
ranging from % t025c for best marks,
and from 20 "a 22c for fair to good.
The receipts of all kinds have been
pretty well cleaned out, and the indica-
tions are promising for a good week.
There was no change in quotations,
either in Utica or in New York. We
quote from the Producer's Price Cur
! rent
The receivers of State butter are gen.
| orally complaining of dizziness this week.
! The receipts continue on liberal scale
and the fine grades move off without
much difficulty, but the medium and in
ferior sorts go slowly unless offered at
very low prices. Very choice firkins
are not plenty, and those buyers who
make choice selections are obliged to pay
very full prices for them. This is al
WAYS a dull week, the holiday taking
great many people out of the city.
Grocers do not like to carry much stock
during such weather. Western has con-
tinued to arrive daily. Very choice
grades of Western are no plentier than
required. There is great complaint OF
some of the freight lines that profess to
/ carry butter in refrigerator cars, bring
ING their lots in very bad order. They
allow the ice to become exhausted, often
and this allows the butter to become
mere oil.
