The weeks trade closed up quietly notwith-
standing favorable weather. The lull which
follows holidays is fully on. In dairy product
lines creamery butter and choice grades OF
cheese are firmly held. Country butter and
| low grade cheese are very slow. Poultry lett
over from Thanksgiving is hard to sell at any
price. Fresh stock is active and firm. The
supply of strictly fresh eggs is very scarce.
! Cold storage stock is firm at quotations below.
Potatoes and apples are quiet at old rates. The
demand for tropical fruits improves. Florida
oranges are coming freely but quality is not
up to standard. Much of the fruit now offered
is sour, having been plucked before it was fully
ripe.
