THURSDAY. Jan. 10. I
Country Produce-Jobbing Prices.
Trade is still very quiet. and the weeks
record is far from bright. At the commission
houses this has been the uniform testimony
since the holidays. Markets are too slow for
any advance in prices. Onions alone in vegeta-
BILE lines show an upward tendency. Potatoes
and cabbage are quiet. Supply is more than
equal to demand, but fancy stock is firmly
held. In the line of dairy products cheese is
the firm factor Creamery butter of high grade
is active at outside quotations Supply of eggs
Is ample for all demands, but prices are steady,
and nearby stock. which is scarce. will readily
bring top prices as quoted.
