FRIDAY, April H.
Country Produce-Jobbing Prices.
Good creamery is scarce and markets are
steady. Country rclls are in abundant supply
and prices are weak. The first Ohio cheese of
the season will be due IN a day or two. Old
stock is'practically over for this year. The egg
market holds IN better than was generally an
ticipated, but there Is little doubt that lower
prices will prevail in the next few days. Next
weeks prices will in all probability be little, if
any, above 12c per dozen. New vegetables are
coming in more freely, and quality of offerings
is very much improved the past week. In trop-
ical fruit lines lemons are the strong factor,
and prices are steadily advancing.
