Late Dairy Markets.
CHEESE.

The receipts for the past week in the
Boston produce market have been SEQ box
es. The market is firm, with a fair de-
mand from the trade. The sales have been
at 14@154c per h., tor good to choice
western and northern factory, and Ice for
for some fine lots. Very little serviceable
cheese can be bought under 1916. The
stock continues light, and the indications
are that prices will be maintained during
the season.
Utica advices state that the continued de-
mand and increased exports, as well as the
lessening receipts at New York, indicate
with much clearness the present tendency
of the market. No change has occurred
during the past week save in quantities.
Like causes continue to yield like results.
The Liverpool quotation has advanced one
shilling; and the exports last week were
nearly qusdruple those of the previous
week. New York dealers have gained the
impression that the factories will reopen
earlier than usual; and they, therefore, are
disposed to wait patiently, until the new
supply shall create decline. Until then,

BUTTER.
The receipts of butter for the past week,
In the Boston produce market, have been
5,372 packages, against 1862 packages for
the corresponding work last year, and 49,
$40 in 1875. Total receipts since the first
of January, $1,000 packages against ~, 1914
packages for the same time last year. Ex-
ports for the week, l AL packages. With
an increased demand for export and fall
ing off in receipts, there has been a slight
reduction of stock, and the market appears
to have reached the turning point. Prices
are no lower than last week, and some
holders talk little firmer, but this is all
the Improvement we can report. The de-
mand for home consumption continues very
light, and no encouragement can be given
to country shippers. The out-of-town trade,
which usually has been good at this season,
IL very limited, owing 10 supplies having
been sent direct from the country TO all the
principal points in this vicinity. Strictly
fine lots will sell readily enough, but they
are very scarce and have no important in
fluence ON the market. The stock of New
York and Vermont consists mainly OF fair
TO choice diaries, which may be quoted from
19@23c per h., but we hear of very few
sales at 22@23c, and zoe is considered top
price for food straight lots. Forced sales
would not realize over 18c for most of the
stock. Choice western dairy butter, II
here, might command 18@20c per h., but
very little of the western stock here can be
quoted over 16c, with slow trade at that.
We quote some as low as 13@15c, but there

At Utica the freshening of trade in but

tations. There was not the notable increase
In the number of packages received and ex-
ported last week. The Producers Price
Current says;
State dairies have been brought In rather
freely and have found slow sale. Some
of the country holders have canyassed the
market with very fine diaries, but have not
generally succeeded in selling them. The
trade have been willing to take them on
commission, but have not been willing 10
buy them at 28c., or even loo. This shows
that great doubt still exists as to the future
of the market. We occasionally hear of a
very fine DAIRY sold above our quotation.

Many fair to good diaries have continued

has been good, and many have gone out Of
