Country Produce-Jobbing Prices.
Demand is good for strictly fresh eggs and
choice creamery butter. Country butter is
slow and prices are nominal Cheese is firm
and tendency of markets is upward. Potatoes
are coming in freely, and prices are tending
lower. Supply Of apples is light and demand
corresponds. Tropical fruits are little more
expensive than apples, and the latter are slow
and dull as result Bananas are scarce and
firm. Poultry supply exceeds demand, and
drift of markets is downward. Produce COM
mission men report a quiet trade all along the
line, with markets in favor of the buyer.
