GENERAL PRODUCE.
The satisfactory improvement noted in the
butter market remains on about the same
level. Choice grades are in very good demand
for all kinds. Dairy seems to be the Iavorlte
and is called for In larger quantities than can
be supplied, with fancy bringing full outside
figures. Much of the dairy receipts do not
grade up to what is wanted by home consum'
ers and drops down into packing stock.
Choice creameries are in good demanc, as
III r;,,f tnh ~
jar lots are in good request. Packing grades
are being cleaned up at about 3l2c, and there
is a fair prospect OF getting the winters
stock well out of the way before very long,
and with receipts of such goods coming In
in smaller quantities it is not probable that
the market will be so glutted in the immedi-
ate future.
A general feeling Of steadiness and con-
fidence was expressed by most holders OF
eggs this morning, and the tone OF the mar
keti rated a little stronger. About l2l20
13c seemed to be the market price this morn
ing, the latter figure little toppy perhaps,
and only obtained i'll small way.
The offerings of fresh-dressed poultry were
very light this morning, and those holding
such stocks were pretty firm. Spring chick
ems and young small hen turkeys are Ill par
ticularly active demand, LILAC and l4l2c re-
spectiyely.
The market for new vegetables was rather
quiet with no promised activity until more
favorable weather prevails.
The apple market is wholly unchanged.
Oranges are not very plenty, and with
fair demand they are moving at steady to
firm prices, all choice grades bringing es-
pecially good prices. Not much animation
is shown in lemons, but they are going
quietly and meeting expectations. Quite
good trade is being transacted in bananas,
with nothing new of Importance transporting.
The local cheese market was steady to firm
in sympathy with foreign and Eastern mar
lets where stacks are reDOrted small eSpeC-
tally on all choice full creams or partly
skinned.
The potato market remains practically in
the same condition rs recently reported. The
movement is small, mostly to local dealers
for home consumption, with choice grades
