At the Monday L.eeting of the Elgn Butter
| Board creamery butter was advanced 24c pei
| pound. Markets here have been almost bare
| in this line for week or two past. The price
| of good creamery will be 3lc the latter part OF
| the week and fancy brands 1c higher. Old
| cheese is dropped from our list, as it is prac-
tically out of the market. New cheese is scarce
and firm. supply not being as yet up to demand.
Receipts of strawberries from the South have
been heavy this week and prices are lower.
Markets are slow at the decline. Demand for
tropical fruits. especially oranges, has fallen
of since berries began TO como in freely. Po-
tatoes are not so firm as they have been, owing
to large arrivals Burbanks were offered on
track to-day at less than 81 per bushel.
