CHEESE TRADE-The Chicago Times OF the

"By reference to another column 1t Will be
seen we have dropped New York factory Oh eese
from our table of quotations, as there VAS not,
nor has there been for some days past any New
York factory cheese in this market The best
qualities Of western cheese are branded New
York factory" and sold al l0al2c. Why our
cheese dealers should have the face to say to
their customers this Is New York factory
cheese" and we are selling it for lOal2c, when
that production is worth, and, in fact is selling
at the factory ut l2al3c, is little surprising to
say the least. That western factory cheese Is
equal in every respect to cheese made ut the
East is generally admitted, and yet the dealer
who brands and bills it as New York factory Is
guilty of deception for which there is no ex-
cuse. The ruling figures on yesterday were lOa
l2c for good to choice descriptions of Ohio and
State factory. -.....
