Country Produce-Jobbilg Prices.
The Elgin Butter Board reduced prices of
creamery butter lc yesterday. The price there
for the best stock was 23c, the lay down price
here in Job lots is about 24c. One of our large
jobbers sold at the latter figure this morning
to wholesale dealer a lot of Dundee Elgin
creamery. Ohio creamery is quiet at reduc-
ton of 1c from prices of last week. Cheese IS
slow, but unchanged. Eggs lose nothing of
their frmness. A choice article readily brings
the outside of quotations. Sweet potatoes are
active at shade better prices than have pre-
vailed for Some weeks past. Irish potatoes are
slow at quotations, fact due as much as any
thing else to the large amount Of low grade
stuff which has of late been thrown on the
market from the West. The supply of grapes
is good, and quality was never better. Apples
are slow, and only fancy find ready customers
There is an improved demand for tropical
fruits but prices are practically unchanged.
