TUESDAY,, July <os loo0'
Country Produce-Jobbing Prices.
Markets we're fairly active. but supplies were
light. Berries were in good demand, and more
than showed up would have found ready buy
ers. In vegetable lines tomatoes were active
and firm; potatoes quiet Melons are only in
fair supply. Elgin creamery was advanced 15c
at headquarters yesterday, and sales. reported
there were 3S, $40 pounds at the advance, mar
kets closing steady. Country butter goes slow
at nominal prices. Reliable eggs are not easy
to De had at this season. The best candled
stock brings 15c per dozen. An article surely
fresh will bring cent more. Tuesdays trade
has scarcely come up to expectations of COM
mission men, but this has been due in meas
ure to scarcity of supplies in certain lines.
