COUNTRY PRODUCE (Jobbing Prices)-There
has been an improved demand for creamery
butter the past day or two, and markets
show greater frmness Ohio creamery quota
tions are advanced. Eggs are in full supply,
and prices are q shade lower. Sales OF fresh
eggs are reported shade below tic. The
depression Is due to large receipts of held
over Ohio river eggs, large quantities Of
which are of dubious freshness. Pittsburg
prices vary very little from those of Chicago,
where markets were quoted yesterday at
1910 per dozen. Views of produce men diff
fer as to value of choice old potatoes. Some
report markets firm at 81 per bushel, while
others are willing to sell the best az VI 70.
There has been great scarcity or GOOD
vegetables are large particularly beans,
peas and cabbage, and prices tend toward
lower level. Strawberries are In good sup
ply, but choice stock is in good demand;
Home cherries are now coming IN freely, and
prices are tending lower.
