Country PrOduce-JObbing Prices.
Dairy products are quiet Nearby poultry is
scarce and markets are dependant on the west
for supplies. Eggs are higher and very firm at
the advance. The supply of fresh country eggs
is far below demand. The demand for apples
improves as other domestic fruits wane. Grapes
are about at their end for this season. Florida
oranges begin to come in freely and the drift
of prices for tropical fruits is toward lower
level. Bananas are not in as large supply as for
several weeks past, but demand is light Pota-
toes are unchanged. Supply is sufficient and
only choice stock finds ready sale. Sweet pota-
toes are in fair demand at quotations. Other
vegetables are unchanged
