Country Produce-JobbinR Prices.
Elgin creamery butter has taken an upward
turn. Prices are advanced, as our quotations
will disclose, and there is strong probability
of further advance before the week is out.
According to markets established at Elgin by
actual sales yesterday. the lay-down price of
fancy brands is 19c at this date. Markets here
are unusually bare of choice stock. Country
butter is still poor stock and prices are only
nominal Eggs are in better supply and mar
kets not SO lively as they have been of late.
Potatoes are scarce and firm at quotations.
Apples are in good supply and quiet. The
berry season Is close to its end. Supply is not
equal to demand. The blackberry crop falls
far short of general expectations. A good de-
mand for all choice products is reported by
produce commission men. Fruit and Vegeta-
BILE Inspector Kilgore condemned to the gar
bage pile to-day 2l2 crates OF cantaloups which
had been held until they we're over-ripe. This
was the outcome of the glut in this line last
week.
