PRODUCE.
Pittahnrr Produce Market.

PIrTsBUEG, October l6.-The demand for
eggs continues on the increase, owing to
to the colder weather, but the supply is
fully equal to present requirements, hence
we make no further change in our quota
tious. There is very liberal supply OF
cold-storage eggs and a good many Of these
are now being thrown upon the market,
here as well as elsewhere, There is con-
tinued light supply Of choice creamery but
Ter. and there is an increased demand Tor
fine country butter in consequence. The
production was very materially reduced
during August and September by the
drought, and to this may be attributed the
present high prices. Cheese is moving
freely at quotations. There Is an increased
demand for poultry, both live and dressed,
as there nearly always is at this season OF
the year. especially for nice fresh stock.
There is more inquiry for Irish potatoes,
hut with increased receipts the supply IS
fully equal to the same and, if anything,
the market is weaker than 1t was q week
ago. In the course Of few weeks more
many retailers as well as large consumers
will be putting in supply for the winter.
Green apples are more active, but prices
nave not improved much. Onions, CAB
bage and turnips in very fair request at
prices quoted.
