| SATURDAY, Sept. .,
COUNTRY PRoDUCE-(Jobbing prices)
There is continued good demand for all
choice dairy products and, from present
outlook, higher prices will be established
the coming week. High grade cheese is
firm enough to go up higher. Fancy cream
cry butter is in limited supply and very
firm at quotations. In vegetable lines we
note an improved demand and better prices
for tomatoes. Cabbage, cucumbers, and in
fact all other vegetables are drug. Sweet
potatoes have shown a downward tendency
all the week. In fruit lines peaches still
have the call. Receipts are large, but all
good stock is promptly taken at outside
quotations. Tropical fruits are quiet, but
bananas of high quality have improved
