OMAHA wHoLesALE MARKETS
General Markets,

Saturday Evening June &.
EGGs--The egg market has taken very
sudden jump upward and is far at the adj
vance, The large falling off in the receipts
has caused a temporary scarcity. and commits
sion dealers are unable to supply the require
ments Of the retail trade. Stocks which had
been accumulated to some extent last week
have been entirely closed out. Eggs, e@i0c.
BUTTEE-Ihe receipts have not been quite
as liberal the past week, but the quality is
very poor. As a general thing the receipts
are very heavy at this time, aud the quality
of the butter better. 1t is very. poor policy
for shippers to pack butter in boxes during
warm weather, as no retail dealer Will buy
stock that comes in that shape and the com.
mission men are forced to sell il for almost
nothing. The demand is so light and the
general quality of the butter SO poor that only
small proportion of the receipts will bring
top prices. Choice fresh grass butter, 7@lOc;

Small sizes are slow sale and the trade does
not want them at any price. Old fowls do
not sell as readily Us spring chickens, but are
guotabe little higher than last week. The
following quotations represent the average
sale, but fancy stock might bring little bet.
