Country Produce-Jobbing Prices.
Choice grades of creamery butter are in short
supply and markets are firm at outside quo ta-
tions. Low grades are in over-supply and prices
for this class of goods are only nominal. Every
thing choice in the dairy product line com
mands ready sale. Nearby eggs are scarce and
firm at outside quotations. Chicago eggs are
in fair supply, and for these markets are steady
at 1Sc per dozen. Potatoes are in good supply
and drift of markets is toward a lower level.
The same is true of tomatoes Cantaloups
plenty and markets quiet at lower prices
Watermelons are also in full supply and prices
are weak at decline from last weeks rates.
Apples are coming in more freely, but there is
little choice stock in the receipts. All signs
point to a very short apple and peach crop this
season. The berry season is close to its end for
this year. Another week will wind up the crop
of rasDberries. Mountain blackberries are be-
ginning to come To market, and will be plenty
for the next week or two. Choice tomatoes are
firm at outside Quotations. Common and low
grade stock is very frIh at inside quotations.
