CREAMERY SCARCE.
Choice Dairy Products Are Strong
All Along the Line.
POULTRY SUPPLY BELOW DEMAND
Cereal Receipts Light and Tendency Of
Prices Is Upward.
HOG PRODUCTS FIND A LOWER LEVEL



COUNTRY PRODUCE Gobbing prices)-
There is scarcity of choice creamery but
ter in our markets, and Notwithstanding the
advance in prices, primes are firm enough to
go still higher. Cheese also shows an up
ward inclination. September make of New
York cheese is bringing 1Oc at sources of
supply, and holders are not anxious to sell
at this price. Limburger and Sweitzer
cheese of high grade are advanced, as our
quotations will disclose. Low grades are
dull and slow. Poultry supply is scarcely
equal to demand. TURKEYS are coming to
our markets of late in small way, and all
offered are promptly taken. Vegetables are
steady and tropical fruits are strong, with
an inclination to higher prices.

The movement in this department is slow,
with prices unchanged. Sugars are weak
and coffees are quiet at the decline already
noted. Demand for sugars has fallen off of
late for the reason that the fruit canning
season is drawing near its close.
